A Street will serve as the main entrance to the site, and B Street will serve as the secondary access point. RANCHO VISTA VILLAGE RANCHO VISTA VILLAGE 2-1 2.0 Area Conditions A. Study Area The study area includes the following intersections: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road Ynez Road Rancho Vista Road Mira Loma Drive (West) Rancho Vista Road Mira Loma Drive (East) Rancho Vista Road Margarita Road Rancho Vista Road B. Existing Traffic Controls and Intersection Geometrics Exhibit 2-1 identifies the existing roadway conditions for the study area roadways. The number of through traffic lanes for existing roadways and the existing intersection controls are identified. C. Existing Traffic Volumes Existing AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes for the study area intersections are shown on Exhibit 2-2. These volumes are based upon manual AM and PM peak hour turning movement counts collected in June 2012. The traffic count worksheets are included in Appendix A. Existing Average Daily Traffic (ADT) volumes for roadway segments within the study area have been provided by the City of Temecula and are based on counts taken in Year 2011 . 2-2 D. Existing Level of Service Existing intersection level of service calculations are shown in Table 2-1 and are based on manual AM and PM peak hour turning movement counts. Definitions of the Highway Capacity Manual’s Level of Service (LOS) standards are included in Appendix B. The City of Temecula requires a Level of Service D or better for all intersections. Under Existing traffic conditions, all study area intersections are currently operating at LOS D or better during the peak hours, with the exception of Ynez Road (NS) at Rancho California Road (EW). This intersection is currently operating at LOS E during the PM peak hour. HCM calculation worksheets for Existing conditions are provided in Appendix C. E.

Project Traffic Conditions 1. Trip Generation Trip generation represents the amount of traffic that is attracted and produced by a development. The trip generation rates are based upon data collected by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation, 8th Edition. This publication provides a comprehensive evaluation of trip generation rates for a variety of land uses. Both daily and peak hour trip generation rates for the uses analyzed in this study are shown in Table 3-1. The traffic generation for the proposed project is based upon the specific land uses that have been planned for the development. The project site is currently zoned for medium density residential land use, as approved under the existing General Plan. The approved land use for this site would consist of 62 single family dwelling units. The proposed project is seeking a general plan amendment to change the existing zoning to high density residential. The proposed project would consist of 120 apartment dwelling units. The project site is currently vacant and no trip credit for an existing land use was taken. Both daily and peak hour trip generation for the previously approved land use and the proposed development are shown in Table 3-2. The previously approved land use would generate approximately 593 total trip-ends per day, with 47 total vehicle trips during the AM peak hour and 63 total trip ends per day during the PM peak hour. The proposed development is projected to generate approximately 798 total trip-ends per day, with 61 total vehicles per hour during the AM peak hour and 74 total vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour. The net trip increase as a result of the proposed project would be approximately 205 more trip-ends per day, with 14 additional vehicle trips during the AM peak hour and 11 additional trips per day during the PM peak hour. 3-2 2. Trip Distribution and Assignment Trip distribution represents the directional orientation of traffic to and from the project site. Trip distribution is heavily influenced by the geographical location of the site, the location of retail, employment, recreational opportunities, and the proximity to the regional freeway system. The directional orientation of traffic was determined by evaluating existing and proposed land uses and highways within the community. Trip distribution patterns for this study have been based upon near-term and general plan buildout conditions, and are based upon those highway facilities that are either in place or will be contemplated over the next few years. The trip distribution patterns for the project are graphically depicted on Exhibit 3-1. The assignment of traffic from the site to the adjoining roadway system has been based upon the site's trip generation, trip distribution, and proposed arterial highway and local street systems that this traffic study assumes would be in place by the time of initial occupancy of the site. 3. Modal Split Modal split denotes the proportion of traffic generated by a project that would use any of the transportation modes, namely buses, cars, bicycles, motorcycles, trains, carpools, etc. The traffic reducing potential of public transit and other modes is significant. However, the traffic projections in this study are conservative in that public transit and alternative transportation may be able to reduce the traffic volumes. Thus no modal split reduction is applied to the projections. With the implementation of transit service and provision of alternative transportation ideas and incentives, the automobile traffic demand can be reduced significantly. 3-3 4. Project Peak Hour Traffic Volumes Project AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and average daily traffic are shown on Exhibit 3-2. 5. Existing Plus Project Peak Hour Traffic Volumes Existing Plus Project AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and average daily traffic includes existing traffic volumes, counted in June 2012, plus project traffic volumes. Existing Plus Project traffic volumes are shown in Exhibit 3-3. B. Background Traffic 1. Method of Projection To assess Project Completion (Year 2014) traffic conditions, project traffic is combined with existing traffic, area-wide growth and cumulative projects’ traffic. Project Completion Year is expected to be in Year 2014. To assess General Plan Buildout traffic conditions, the project’s traffic is combined with traffic volumes obtained from FEHR & PEERS using the RivTAM traffic model for the City of Temecula area. The traffic model details the projected traffic volumes at the study area intersections for the General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) Conditions. These volumes reflect the latest future traffic projections for the study area. Appendix D provides the forecasting methodology used by FEHR & PEERS and in-depth discussion regarding the RivTAM Model. 2. Cumulative Projects Traffic Table 3-3 lists the proposed land uses for the nearby cumulative projects for Project Completion (Year 2014) With Cumulative Projects traffic conditions, known 3-4 at the time this study was prepared. Cumulative projects have been obtained from the City of Temecula Staff. Cumulative impacts analyzed in this traffic impact study were conservatively assessed. Some of the cumulative projects may be downsized or may not be approved, and some approved projects may not be developed. In addition, many of the related projects have been or will be subject to a variety of mitigation measures that will reduce the potential environmental impacts associated with those projects. However, those mitigation measures have not been taken into account in projecting the environmental impact of the related projects. Therefore, the cumulative analyses set forth below are conservative and result in greater impacts than actually anticipated. Developments that have been approved or are being processed concurrently in the study area, include the projects illustrated on Exhibit 3-4. The cumulative development trip distributions are shown on Appendix E. Table 3-3 shows the peak hour and daily daily vehicle trips generated by the Cumulative Projects being processed concurrently in the study area. Cumulative Projects AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and average daily traffic are shown on Exhibit 3-5. 3. Background Traffic Growth Rate To account for area-wide growth on the roadways, future traffic volumes have been calculated based on a two percent (2%) annual growth rate of existing traffic volumes over a two-year period for counts taken in Year 2012. The City of Temecula provided the area-wide growth rate. C. Project Completion (Year 2014) Without Project Traffic Volumes Project Completion (Year 2014) without project traffic conditions includes existing traffic volumes on surrounding roadways, cumulative project traffic, and area-wide growth. The AM and PM peak hour intersection turning movement volumes and 3-5 average daily traffic are shown on Exhibit 3-6 for Project Completion (Year 2014) Without Project traffic conditions. D. Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project Traffic Volumes Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project traffic conditions includes existing traffic volumes on surrounding roadways, project traffic, area-wide growth and cumulative projects.

Capacity and Level of Service Improvement Analysis 1. Level of Service for Existing Plus Project Conditions Intersection levels of service for the Existing Plus Project conditions are shown in Table 4-1. For Existing Plus Project traffic conditions, all study area intersections are projected to operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours with the exception of the following intersection, which will continue to operate at an LOS “E”: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road This intersection will continue to operate at LOS “E” under Existing Plus Project traffic conditions. An increase in overall intersection delay of 1.6 seconds is expected to occur as a result of the project. Since the increase in delay is below the City’s 2.0 second threshold, the project’s impact at this intersection is considered insignificant. HCM calculation worksheets for Existing Plus Project conditions are provided in Appendix F. 2. Level of Service for Project Completion ((Year 2014) Without Project Conditions Intersection levels of service for the Project Completion (Year 2014) Without Project conditions are shown in Table 4-2. For Project Completion (Year 2014) Without Project traffic conditions, all study area intersections are projected to operate at 4-2 LOS D or better during the peak hours, with the exception of the following intersection, which is expected to operate at Los E. North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road HCM calculation worksheets for Project Completion (Year 2014) Without Project conditions are provided in Appendix G. 3. Level of Service for Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project Conditions Intersection levels of service for Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project conditions are shown in Table 4-3. For Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project traffic conditions, all study area intersections are projected to operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours with the exception of the following intersection, which will continue to operate at LOS “E”: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road This intersection will continue to operate at LOS “E” under Opening Year (2014) with Project traffic conditions. An increase in overall intersection delay of 0.9 seconds is expected to occur as a result of the project. Since the increase in delay is below the City’s 2.0 second threshold, the project’s impact at this intersection is considered insignificant. HCM calculation worksheets for Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project conditions are provided in Appendix H. 4-3 4. LOS for General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) Without Project Conditions Intersection levels of service for the General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) Without Project conditions are shown in Table 4-4. For General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) Without Project traffic conditions ultimate roadway widths and lane configurations have been assumed per the City of Temecula’s General Plan Circulation Element, as shown in Exhibit 4-1. All study area intersections are projected to operate at LOS D or better during the peak hours, with the exception of the following intersection, which is expected to operate at LOS E: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road For future Year 2035 conditions, it has been assumed that the intersection cycle length is 120 seconds. Table 4-4 shows the intersection delay with the future signal timing. HCM calculation worksheets for General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) Without Project conditions are provided in Appendix I. 5. LOS for General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) With With Project Conditions Intersection levels of service for the General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) With Project conditions are shown in Table 4-5. For General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) With Project traffic conditions ultimate roadway widths and lane configurations have been assumed per the City of Temecula’s General Plan Circulation Element, as shown in Exhibit 4-1. All study area intersections are projected to operate at an LOS D or better during the peak hours, with the exception of the following intersection, which is expected to continue to operate at LOS E: 4-4 North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road For future Year 2035 conditions, it has been assumed that the intersection cycle length is 120 seconds. Table 4-5 shows the intersection delay with future signal timing. Although this intersection will continue to operate at LOS “E” during the PM peak hour, the overall intersection delay as a result of the project will be 1.9 seconds. Since the increase in delay is below the City’s 2.0 second threshold, the project’s impact at this intersection is considered insignificant and no further mitigation would be required at this intersection. HCM calculation worksheets for General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) With Project conditions are provided in Appendix J. 6. Traffic Signal Warrants Peak hour traffic signal warrants have been analyzed at the following unsignalized study area intersection: North-South Street East-West Street Mira Loma Drive Rancho Vista Road Traffic signal warrants have been performed at the above study area intersection for for all study scenario conditions. The intersection is projected to satisfy peak hour traffic signal warrants starting in the General Plan Buildout With Project conditions during the PM peak hour. Although this intersection will meet the peak hour traffic volume criteria under future conditions, a traffic signal is not required to improve level of service operation at this intersection. The traffic signal warrant analysis worksheets are included in Appendix K.

Intersection Analysis Summary A summary of the Existing Conditions level of service analysis for each condition is included in Table 5-1. Under existing traffic conditions, all study area intersections are currently operating at acceptable conditions during the peak hours, with the exception of the following intersection which is currently operating at an LOS “E”: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road The proposed project will consist of 120 apartment units and it is projected to generate approximately 798 trip-ends per day, with 61 vehicles per hour during the AM peak hour and 74 vehicles per hour during the PM peak hour. Intersection levels of service for Project Completion (Year 2014) With Project Conditions are shown in Table 5-2. Traffic conditions include existing traffic volumes on surrounding roadways, area wide growth and cumulative projects traffic. All study area intersections are projected to operate at an acceptable level of of service during the peak hours, except for the following intersection, which is projected to operate at an LOS “E”: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road 5-2 No mitigation is required for Project Completion (Year 2014) with project conditions, as the project does not increase the overall intersection delay by more than two (2) seconds. Intersection levels of service for General Plan Buildout With Project Conditions are shown in Table 5-3. Traffic conditions in this scenario consist of traffic volumes generated from RivTAM traffic model and were provided by FEHR & PEERS. All study area intersections are projected to operate at an acceptable level of service during the peak hours except for the following intersection, which is projected to operate at LOS E: North-South Street East-West Street Ynez Road Rancho California Road No mitigation is required for General Plan Buildout (Year 2035) with project conditions, as the project does not increase the overall intersection delay by more than two (2) seconds. B. Proposed Mitigation Measures No mitigation measures are required for the proposed project. A summary of the change in level of service with the addition of of the project is provided in Tables 5-1, 5-2, and 5-3. The project is not expected to have a significant impact at any of the study area intersections. 5-3 C. Circulation Recommendations 1. On-Site I. Construct the on-site circulation system per the detailed site plan. II. Install stop signs, stop bars, and stop legends at all project access points. On-site circulation recommendations are shown on Exhibit 5-1. 2. Area-Wide I. Complete any remaining parkway landscaping improvements for Mira Loma Drive and Rancho Vista Road adjacent to the project. II. A traffic signal at the intersection of Mira Loma Drive at Rancho Vista Road is not required from a level of service standpoint. Area-wide recommendations are summarized on Exhibit 5-1. D. Safety and Operational Improvements Sight distances at the project access points should be reviewed at the time of construction per the City of Temecula standards. As is the case for any roadway design, the City of Temecula should periodically review traffic operations in the vicinity of the site once the project is constructed to assure that the traffic operations are satisfactory.
