From: Kelly Sandow <br />RE: Amazon Corners AM Analysis <br />Date: 12.26.16 <br />Page 2 <br />For most developments, the morning peak for developments occurs at the same time as the <br />morning peak hour of the adjacent street traffic (7:00-9:00 AM). However, Specialty Retail Centers <br />typically have a low to no traffic demand during the peak hour of the adjacent street as they <br />typically contain uses that open after the 9:00 AM peak hour. <br />As shown in Table 1 and Table 2, the development will generate over 100 trips in the AM peak hour <br />of generator but does not generate over 100 trips during the 7:00 to 9:00 AM time. <br />As per EC 9.867 an evaluation of the AM peak hour is triggered if it is shown that the site generates <br />more than 100 trips in the peak hour. However as per City of Eugene standards, the evaluation is to <br />be prepared for the AM peak hour of adjacent street traffic that occurs between 7:00 and 9:00 AM. <br />The site is projected to add 57 vehicle trips during this time period. The following includes the <br />analysis for the site impacts for the time period between 7:00 and 9:00 AM. <br />TRIP DISTRIBUTION <br />The trip distribution follows the same pattern used in the TIA with: <br />• 70% to/from the north on Hilyard Street <br />• 30% to/from the south on Hilyard Street <br />Figure 1 illustrates the distribution of primary trips during the AM peak hour. <br />TRAFFIC IMPACTS <br />As demonstrated in Figure 1, the development is not projected to add 50 or more vehicle trips to <br />any intersection. As per the City of Eugene TIA criteria, intersection evaluation needs to be <br />completed for intersections that have 50 or more trips added from developments. Therefore, <br />intersection evaluation is not required for the AM analysis. <br />As there are no intersections or driveways with 50 or more trips added the impacts of the <br />development from the AM traffic generation are considered insignificant. <br />Additionally, the traffic added to the intersections during the PM peak hour are significantly higher, <br />therefore, the evaluation for the PM peak hour as presented in the TIA represents worst case traffic <br />conditions for this site. The AM peak hour traffic impacts do not affect the analysis and <br />recommendations within the TIA. <br />SANDOW <br />ENGINEERING <br />
