TASK 2: DATA COLLECTION <br />Key Issues: Coordination with other projects, plans and traffic studies will require <br />information from a wide range of sources. It will also be crucial to communicate with <br />OCTA staff to verify OCTAM inputs and ensure timely delivery of forecast model <br />data. <br />Approach: The following information will be gathered as part of the data collection <br />task: <br />• Roadway segment and intersection counts <br />• Pedestrian and bicycle volumes <br />• Roadway segment and intersection lane configuration <br />• Intersection traffic control and signal phasing <br />• Transit, Land use and demographic data <br />• OCTAM data and forecasts <br />• Related project information <br />IBI Group will create an inventory of the existing configuration of up to 20 study <br />roadway segments and 30 study intersections through a combination of field reviews, <br />existing documents and internet research. Items of note include numbers and <br />average widths of vehicular travel lanes, bike lanes, sidewalks, parkways, medians <br />and center turn lanes. Existing transit data will include bus routes, bus stop locations, <br />headways, and Metrolink and Amtrak schedules. Once local schools are back in <br />session, new study count data (vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian volumes) will be <br />collected during a non- holiday week in fair weather. <br />A data request memo will be prepared to identify information that may be obtained <br />from the City of Santa Ana, the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and <br />other sources such as signal timing sheets, land use and demographic data, OCTAM <br />data and forecasts. Information will also be requested on the following projects: <br />• Santa Ana Signal Master Plan <br />• Quiet zone locations <br />• The Fixed Guideway Project <br />• Grade separation projects (Santa Ana Boulevard, Grand Avenue, 17th Street <br />3 <br />
