Figure 1. Study Area m��s1, � -'J�acrc� r"4rr�lu�r:� ('r'r�av��l'1Y��c,rrr�rrc� r���c�r��iJ Based on mutual agreement between the City of Denton, UNT and UNTS regarding all data related to this scope of work, including existing assumptions and inputs used for the Denton Travel Demand Model, Walter P Moore will enhance the Denton TraveB Demand Model by refining the circulation (transportation) network and updating the land use (demographic) data within the study area which encompasses the UNT campus and the surrounding area. - Walter P Moore will run the base model and review. Data collected in Task 1 wiBl be utilized to calibrate the base year model to 2017. Volumes within +/- 15% are standard thresholds for validation. Although the entire model will be used only the traffic data collected in the study area will be used for validation. - Walter P Moore will update the traffic analysis zones (TAZs) in the study area to reflect the 2017 land use and demographic conditions. Splitting or redefining may be needed to the roadway network. - Walter P Moore will run the base year travel demand model to evaluate the volumes, level of service, and percent change of volumes in the surrounding network for each of the 5 network alternatives listed below. o Closure of portions of Avenue C within the UNT boundaries o CBasure of portions of Highland 6treet within the UNT boundaries o Closure of portions of Avenue C and Highland Street within the UNT boundaries o CBosure of partions of Maple Street within the UNT boundaries o Perform select link analysis for various links in the scenarios � Walter P Maore will utilize sefect link analysis to test each of the alternative (inks before they are remaved from the netwark. �-�;4•J� s� Jra1�r Fa�r.ticara A, e�4�ca1 t��`Iic:o� r,��n�tl�r�i�� Key intersection within the study area will be analyzed in Synchro during existing year (2017) and future year (2040}. - Walter P Moore identify the locations of existing and proposed parking lotslgarages and develop trip generation nades fram these lacatians that will be capable of distributing trips throughaut the network. - Walter P Maore will develap the Synchra model for the existing netwark within the study area utilizing the 50 coflected turning movement counts in Task 1, for the Gity's use. LL Walter P Maore will request and utilize available traffic signal timings provided from the City of Dentan to simulate existing canditions in Synchro. � Walter P Moore will utilize the travel demand model data developed in Task 2 ta estimate the traffic annual growth rate to be applied to the future year analysis. The results from this analysis will help to determine 25 key (mostly impacted) intersectians. - Walter P Moore will canduct existing condition capacity analysis for a maximum of 25 key intersections during the AM, Mid-day, and PM peak hours and report measures of effectiveness (MOEs), including but not limited to level af service and delay. - Walter P Moore wilf canduct future conditian capacity analysis for the same 25 key intersectians during the AM, Mid-day, and PM peak haurs and report measures of effectiveness (MOEs}, including but not limited ta level of service and delay. - Walter P Maore wifl analyze the 5 scenarios listed below utilizing future year canditions. o Closure of portians of Avenue C within the UNT boundaries o Clasure of portions of Highland Street within the UNT boundaries o Clasure of portions of Maple Street within ihe UNT boundaries o Clasure of portions of Avenue G and Highland Street or Maple Street within the UNT boundaries a Cfosure of portions of Avenue C, Maple Street and Highland Street within the UNT boundaries - Walter P Moore will analyze key roadway segments and estimate capacity usage during the existing year and future year. ���;k �� —�1;�,�,'��� Ir�ar�a �r �4 e�rt���)�:�t,��.�Ic��.� IL��f�c,��:�tinr� 1�ir���,�r.�r�� Key intersectians and roadway segments will be assessed by camparing the existing and future canditions for all alternatives. . � • .. _ , _ , . . . „ , , , , , , _ , . _ _ * , , _ : , �� - .; -. . : _ _ . . . � .r .. . . .. -. - . , . . . - . .- �- . _ . : -s .. . -. - .- •- -. - . - . _ , � , , . . . . + - ` - Waiter P Moore will categorize mitigatian measures and impravement recommendatians by shart-, medium-, and long-term impravements. i'�t:�l'� ? ,I c�rt�r��= F'�.ir%�'c�tal ��.J�'tJ,������i�� In order to assess the future impacts af the closure af street segments within the UNT campus a future buildout analysis will be conducted. - Walter P Moore will utilize the forecast year travel demand modef to evaluate future year canditions. The current forecast year land use assumptions in the Denton travel demand model will change as a result of the planning efforts far the Dentan Sectar 1 South planning study. It is recommended that we use the preferred scenario develaped far the planning study for the farecast year land use and demographic inputs. � Walter P Maore will utilize the forecast year model analysis to test 5 network alternatives. Each of the 5 network alternatives identified in Task 2 will be tested using the forecast year travel demand madel to evaluate the valumes, level of service, and percent change of volumes in the surraunding network. - Walter P Maore will utilize the results of the forecast year model for the future year intersection and roadway segment analysis. �.� �h �` ��ttrc �y ,�'L��t�c�rt Based on mutual agreement between the City, UNT and UNTS, Walter P Moore will summarize in a report and submit to the City, UNT, and UNTS for review. . - ■ ' •• - . . .- - . , , , . - s . s- , � • - . • s _ �r� r . • r, � _ � r � -�� - , . • - . ♦- • _ � - � . _ _ _ � . . • . - � �- *_ • � � ♦ �, - � •• � - - ♦ - _ • � ' !. • . •, +,- . � � . • ♦ * ..'. � � �.'��• y *�� � . .:��: ���, ��. �� � � ! ,�..4 • ��... r - � � � . �:� *:. t�..:�: # ...! � ..:. ! � ��' * ��. � ]�i�i' r"� — �r�•"�,�'dASC'�"�w" Meetings will be scheduled with the Clty, UNT, and UN7S staff throughout the praject. w .�'� � �!'� ♦"" r.'. � • ,� i i.'.,� � i :.. � ♦i! �.�^• i • .+* .... � � i f *. • �'�. i i' � • f � • :.:: t . .. ! ♦ ♦'�, • !1r �' � i���� ' •�.. # ����� i. . � . ....♦ : .�.. i :` ��� 4 !� ;� • '�, # � � i ...: i ♦ ... ... �'�.: .
