estimate approximately 40 -50 roadway links will be included in the analysis.
The study will address the a.m. and p.m. peak hours.
No new data collection is anticipated as the City has recently updated counts (2008) at
all necessary locations.
The study will utilize the results of the City of Arcadia Transportation Master Plan, and
SCAG 2008 RTP Model forecasts where appropriate.
Proposed Scope of Work
The following scope of work is proposed.
1. Define Land Use and Trip Generation for Traffic Analysis
A set of traffic analysis zones will be established for the City. Land use quantities for
future growth forecasts will then be defined for each zone in the format necessary (i.e.
land use categories and quantities) for traffic analysis. Trip generation estimates will be
prepared for each zone.
2. Set Up Traffic Model
A traffic model will be set up for the City, to include all analysis links, traffic zones, and
trip distribution patterns. Link characteristics will be established from existing available
information, with minor field verification assumed to be necessary (to be performed by
City based on spreadsheet template to be provided provided by TMG. Spreadsheet will
list roadway type, number of lanes, and a.m. and p.m. peak hour directional volume, for
each analysis link).

3. Analyze Existing Conditions
Existing conditions will be identified (levels of service) for all analysis locations, for the
a.m. and p.m. peak hours.
City to provide an analysis of historical traffic growth at key locations in the City (35 —
50) over last 5, 10, and 20 years, to extent available, on format to be provided by
TMG).
4. Use of SCAG RTP Data
We propose to obtain from SCAG the model forecasts for Arcadia streets for the year
2035 from the SCAG 2008 RTP Model. We will use these forecast to determine the
appropriate level of ambient/background growth for the street system.
5. Prepare 2035 Traffic Forecasts
We will use the ambient growth estimated from the SCAG forecasts, and the trip
generation calculated for the City land use growths, to forecast future traffic levels and
level of service conditions for the year 2035.
6. Analyze 2035 Traffic Forecasts
Analyze forecasts, identify impact areas, and coordinate with City and General Plan
Team on any necessary mitigation strategies and /or measures.
7. Documentation
Prepare Draft Traffic Study for review by City. Modify draft in response to City
comments and prepare Final Traffic Study for DEIR. Respond to comments on DEIR
Traffic Study and assist in preparation of Final EIR (16 hours assumed).
