CITY OF SANTA ANA ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES I TRAFFIC MAY 21, 2007 • Mid -block roadway segments will be analyzed using the County of Orange MPAH Daily Roadway Capacities. • Identify project impacts, and mitigation measures, if necessary. Project impact significance will be based on City of Santa Ana standards. • If mitigation is required, the mitigation section will identify the measure of effectiveness of each mitigation improvement, and the impact, if any, on adjacent properties. A conceptual sketch of the mitigation measure will be superimposed on the intersection or roadway improvement plan, to be provided by the city. For budgeting purposes, it is assumed that mitigation measures will be required at up to four locations. • Identify and discuss opportunities to reduce project traffic by incorporating site features to encourage alternative travel modes, such as transit, walking, and bicycling. • The traffic study will include an evaluation of site access, site circulation, including turning radii throughout the site, and pedestrian movements. A signal warrant will be prepared for each project entrance. We will work with City staff to identify any recommended improvements to the site circulation to achieve safe and efficient traffic flows to, from, and throughout the site. • Conduct an analysis of the proposed parking supply, compared to the City of Santa Ana parking code requirements. If applicable, provide a shared parking analysis to address the opportunity for residential and office uses to share parking supplies. • Prepare a stand-alone traffic impact study. The traffic study will summarize analysis methodology, findings, and recommendations. • Assist in the preparation of responses to traffic -related comments, to the extent that no additional analysis is required.
