I DKS Associates <br />7 <br />but due to this increase in traffic volumes, it is anticipated that the following two intersections <br />would warrant a traffic signal. <br />a. Washington Street/Pacific Avenue <br />b. Civic Center Drive(Pacific Avenue <br />The intersection of Pacific Avenue and Santa Ana Boulevard will not, however, be significantly <br />impacted by the proposed additional cul -de -sacs. A peak hour signal warrant analysis was <br />performed for the two intersections of Pacific Avenue with Washington Street and Civic Center <br />Drive. Approach volumes were estimated from the turning volumes at the intersections of <br />Bristol Street with Washington Street and Civic Center Drive as are presented below in <br />Table 6 -1. <br />Table 6 -1 <br />Approach Peak Hour Volumes <br />Future With Specific Plan <br />NB <br />SB <br />EB WB <br />Intersection AM PM <br />AM PM <br />AM PM AM PM <br />Washington Street <br />at Pacific Avenue 257 211 <br />(1) - <br />300 310 447 727 <br />Civic Center Drive <br />at Pacific Avenue 206 169 <br />257 21t <br />869 829 395 1,142 <br />(1) No SB approach. <br />Figure 64, the peak hour volume warrant, indicates that both intersections will warrant a signal <br />should additional cul- de- sacing at 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th Streets be implemented. However, <br />if the intersection of Civic Center Drive at Pacific Avenue is to be signalized, it is possible, as <br />an alternative to the signalization of the intersection of Washington Street/Pacific Avenue, to <br />cul-de -sac Pacific Avenue at Washington Street and divert traffic toward Civic Center Drive. <br />Cul -de- lacing Pacific Avenue will eliminate the signal need at Washington Avenue and preserve <br />the residential character of Pacific Avenue north of Civic Center Drive_ <br />According to the EIS, cross street movements are anticipated to be low and will be lower with <br />the implementation of the Specific Plan. It is anticipated that under no circumstances do <br />motorists have to travel more than two blocks to make a U -turn_ An increase in U -turns was <br />-" taken into account both in the intersection capacity analysis and in designing the storage bay <br />lengths_ <br />2aa5ZPQ022.#zo.xpr 33 <br />75C -568 <br />
