DI II�TX 7 Water Supply Assessments and Utility/Sewer Studies Dudek will evaluate potential impacts to public services and utilities, and we will estimate any increases in water supply demand, wastewater generation, solid waste generation, and public service demands, utilizing available projection factors, infrastructure master plan documents, urban water management plans, or other existing documentation, as well as personal communication with these organizations. Transportation Planning and Traffic Studies Successful transportation planning, assessment, and design require in-depth understanding of evolving technology and an ever -changing regulatory landscape. Our certified transportation planners and professional engineers understand the latest transportation regulations, and implement best practices to help you develop or adapt projects to maximize your budgets and minimize potential impacts. We provide technical transportation planning, traffic impact assessment, engineering design, CEQA and NEPA expertise, quantifying project effects using the appropriate metrics and methods for project -specific concerns. We help you tackle short- and long-term transportation challenges, whether they relate to capital projects, programs, or long-range plans. We prepare vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis per Senate Bill 743 and the recently updated CEQA guidelines, as well as, determine appropriate significance criteria for transportation impacts. Dudek's transportation staff utilizes region and project specific analysis methodologies including travel demand models (i.e., trip based model, tour based models), sketch models (i.e., CalEEMOd, Sketch 7, UrbanFootprint, MXD), and spreadsheet Transportation Specialities • Multi -Model Planning Analyses • Complete Streets Consultation • General Plan/Master Plan Studies • Specific Plan Studies • Traffic Planning/Operations Studies • Site Access and Circulation Studies • Traffic Signal Design • Traffic Singing and Stripping Design • Construction Zone Traffic Control Plans • Preliminary/Conceptual Engineering • Parking Design and Planning models (i.e., VMT calculator, VMT estimator); research into regional or local transportation plans and policies; and, trip characteristic data and travel surveys (e.g., California Household Travel Survey), to calculate and estimate VMT. For significant VMT impacts found, Dudek can identify feasible mitigation measures such as Transportation Demand Management strategies (e.g., land use/location, site enhancements, parking policies, commute trip reductions programs) that could reduce VMT to meet regional goals or standards. Our experienced in-house transportation and air quality experts work hand - in -hand to guide projects through VMT analysis under Senate Bill 743, saving our clients time and money by providing multiple services under one roof. Our transportation planners and engineers also assess traffic operations to verify efficient and safe mobility for all modes of motorized and non -motorized travel. Dudek uses the Highway Capacity Manual and Intersection Utilization Capacity (ICU) methodologies to analyze traffic operations on street networks. In addition, Dudek provides analysis of site access and circulation design as well as adequacy of on -site parking through parking demand studies. Further supporting our transportation efforts is CR Associates (CRA). CRA has established itself over the past 10 years as a trusted transportation planning and engineering firm that is committed to planning transportation systems and identifying mobility improvements that create and support vibrant and sustainable communities. They have consistently demonstrated expertise in conducting accurate On -Call Environmental Services RFP# 21-105
