section of the Fashion Square EIR Traffic Study relies on the travel <br /> forecasts produced by the Phase Two TSIP Study and expands and focoses <br /> the analysis on the Fashion Square project. Included in the detailed <br /> analysis of the Fashion Square expansion is an investigation of trip <br /> generation rates for large conmiercial projects and examination of the <br /> impact of Fashion Square on the entire Main Street area. Freeway access <br /> reconnended by the Phase Two Study is examined as well as changes in <br /> k <br /> travel patterns that will occur and impacts on Main Street of a failure <br /> to provide any or all of the reconunended freeway ramp additions. An <br /> intersection Capacity analysis is performed which provides an indication <br /> of the impact newly generated Fashion Square traffic will have on two <br /> key Main Street intersections. This capacity analysis, which is based <br /> on the conventional "existing plus project traffic' approach is intended <br /> * for comparative purpose only since existing conditions will be changed <br /> dramatically by planned development and roadway improvements in the <br /> area. <br /> Trip Generation <br /> Trip generation forecasts were prepared for the proposed <br /> -- maximum density development of the Fashion Square/Town and Country areas <br /> as part of the Phase Two TSIP Study. A "reasonableness" check was <br /> IJ* <br /> performed on the MMTS/SATC Model as a part of that effort to ensure that <br /> the trip generation aspect of the model realistically predicted travel <br /> demand. That analysis indicated that the MMTS/SATC Model's trip <br /> generation procedures did produce reliable estimates of total trip <br /> generation. The results of the trip generation for Fashion Square are <br /> presented in Table 9. <br /> 87
