future traffic volumes on the existing road system further aggravates this <br />congested condition. <br />Developing Bristol Street to its fuU six-lane divided major arterial highway <br />designation will increase capacity and accommodate future traffic needs. This <br />increased capacity will serve to reduce the influence intra- regional traffic has <br />on the local road system by adequately accommodating it on the major arterial <br />highway- <br />Traffic volumes will continue to increase whether or not Bristol Street is <br />improved to a major arterial highway. Without road widening, congestion will <br />continue to grow with its effects being felt over a far larger area. With the <br />widening, Bristol Street will be able to accommodate existing as well as future <br />traffic needs safely and efficiently. Intra- regional traffic would no longer <br />realize any time savings benefit by utilizing the local street system and <br />would find the major arterial highway better suited to their needs. The <br />intrusion of commuter traffic into the residential neighborhoods would <br />therefore be substantially reduced. <br />Widening Bristol Street to a six lane major arterial roadway as designated in <br />the Orange County Master Plan was also recommended in the Bristol Street <br />Corridor Stud- Final Re oo Mohle, Grover & Associates, 1983; and in the <br />Arterial Highway Elcment - Santa Ana Transportation Corridor Stage 11 <br />Alternative Analysis, Parsons Brinkerhoff Quade and Douglas, Inc., 1985. <br />This proposed widening is also in agreement with the recommendation found <br />in the Intercity Liaison Committee - Five -Year Transportation Study Update <br />to 1990 Basmaciyan - Darnell, Inc., 1985. <br />MitiWion Mea,5ure5 <br />The proposed widening of Bristol Street to six through lanes will greatly <br />improve operating conditions along this corridor. The additional mitigation <br />measures mentioned below will further enhance traffic progression by aiding in <br />the reduction of congestion and delays. <br />1. Provide a 100 foot wide roadway on a 120 foot wide right -of -way from <br />the Santiago Creek to Warner Avenue. <br />2. Provide intersection lane configurations as shown in Table 21. <br />3. Prohibit U -turns and provide right -turn overlaps with left -turn phasing <br />at the intersection of Bristol Street with Memory Lane and 17th Street. <br />4. Provide protected left -tum phasing in all directions of the intersections <br />along Bristol Street at Memory Lane, 17th Street, First Street, Edinger <br />IV -75 <br />75C -210 <br />
