EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report documents the results of a study evaluating potential traffic impacts created
by building 45 single family homes in the West San Fernando Valley on land which is
currently vacant. These homes will be a new construction on an area located northwest
of Andora Avenue and Plummer Street. The project site is shown on the following aerial
photograph.
It is estimated that the project would generate 431 daily vehicle trips with 34 morning
and 46 evening trips peak hour trips. Vehicular access to the site will be provided from
new project roadways off of Andora Avenue south of Lassen Street and north of
Plummer Street.
The focus of this traffic study is to evaluate the potential traffic impact created by the
new homes at nearby intersections selected for review under consultation with City of
Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT). The study intersections were
determined based on the traffic assignment and the estimated volume of project-
generated traffic that would have the potential to create significant traffic impacts.
Using criteria established by the City of Los Angeles, it has been determined that the
change in traffic conditions associated with the project will not significantly impact the
traffic flow at any of the study intersections.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
As part of the process for the approval of the proposed residential project, the potential
traffic impact of the proposed development has been evaluated using the Critical
Movement Analysis (CMA) method. The CMA analysis method quantifies the operating
conditions of an intersection using a ratio of peak hour traffic volume to intersection
capacity. The amount of new traffic added to an intersection by the proposed project
determines the significance of the project traffic impact. Three key intersections have been
selected under consultation with the City of Los Angeles Department of Transportation
(LADOT) for this traffic impact analysis.
1. Valley Circle Boulevard & Devonshire Street;
2. Valley Circle Boulevard/Andora Avenue/ Baden Avenue & Lassen Street;
3. Baden Avenue & Plummer Street
The analysis of traffic flow has been conducted for present conditions and for future conditions
with added traffic growth. Existing traffic counts were conducted in May 2008. These counts
were increased by 2% to reflect any growth to existing year 2009. The future analysis
documents traffic conditions with the proposed project and other potential land development
projects in the study area. Pursuant to the City of Los Angeles traffic impact guidelines, the
following steps have been taken to develop the future traffic volume estimate:
(a) Existing (2009) traffic plus ambient growth to 2012 study year (added 2 percent per
year);
(b) Traffic in (a) plus other development “related” projects (without project scenario);
(c) Traffic in (b) with the proposed project traffic (with project scenario);
(d) Traffic in (c) plus the proposed traffic mitigation, if necessary.

Traffic Impact Study Project Description
CHAPTER 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The project being proposed is the construction of 45 new single family homes. The project
is located northwest of Andora Avenue and Plummer Street on land which is currently
vacant as shown in Figure 1.
Access to the project area will be from internal roadways created by the project with
connection to Andora Avenue. There will be no roadway connection to the terminus of
Plummer Street as the land required to provide the connection is privately held. The single
family homes will provide a minimum of two parking spaces per home as required by City
of Los Angeles code. Figure 2 illustrates the proposed overall site plan.

Traffic Impact Study Project Description
CHAPTER 3 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
Land Use
The project is located in the Chatsworth – Porter Ranch Community plan area which is
located approximately 22 miles northwest of downtown Los Angeles. The land uses
surrounding the project site are residential and open land uses. The project should adhere
to the standards implemented in the Valley Circle Boulevard/Plummer Street Scenic
corridor. Community land use maps for the study area are provided in Appendix A.
The streets within the study area are under the jurisdiction of the City of Los Angeles. A
map illustrating the community plan highway designations and Los Angeles street
standards are included in Appendix B of this report. The nearest regional facility serving
the site is the Ronald Reagan Freeway (State Highway 118) which is under the jurisdiction
of the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
In addition to collecting traffic volume data, field surveys were conducted to determine the
roadway and intersection geometry and traffic signal operations. All of the intersections
studied are controlled by stop signs. Figure 3 illustrates the study locations, type of
intersection traffic control and lane configurations. A brief description of the key roadway
facilities is provided below with aerial photos of all the study intersections provided in
Appendix B.

Traffic Impact Study Environmental Setting
Transportation Network
The Ronald Reagan Freeway (State Highway 118) is located approximately 2 miles north
of the project site. This east - west freeway provides four mixed-flow lanes and one high-
occupancy lane (HOV) in each direction. Full access to the freeway is provided from De
Soto Avenue. Average daily traffic volume on the 118 Freeway east of De Soto Avenue is
approximately 158,000 vehicles per day (ADT). Current non-directional peak hour traffic
volume on the 118 Freeway is approximately 14,800 VPH per Caltrans at the same
location. Freeway capacities are typically 2,000 vehicles per hour (VPH) per lane under
free flow conditions and 1,600 VPH in car pool lanes. Using this capacity value, the 118
Freeway provides a theoretical free flow capacity of approximately 19,200 VPH.
Devonshire Street is an east-west Class II Major Highway providing two lanes in the each
direction. Devonshire provides one lane in each direction at the intersection of Valley
Circle Boulevard. It has a channelized center divider and bike lanes east of Topanga
Canyon Boulevard which is east of the project area. Left turn channelization is provided
for most cross streets. The standard width for a Class II Major Highway is 104 feet of right-
of-way consisting of an 80 foot wide street with 12 foot sidewalks on each side. The full
street width is not provided in the immediate vicinity of the project.
Lassen Street is an east-west Collector street providing one lane in each direction in the
project vicinity. Lassen Street terminates at the intersection of Lassen Street/Andora
Avenue/Valley Circle Boulevard with a four way stop. The roadway becomes a Secondary
Highway east of Topanga Canyon Boulevard.
Plummer Street is an east-west Secondary Highway east of Valley Circle Boulevard and a
local street west of Valley Circle Boulevard. The roadway provides one lane in each
direction in the project vicinity.
Andora Avenue is a north-south roadway that changes to Valley Circle Boulevard which is
a Collector street north of Lassen Street to Andora Avenue which is a local street south of

Lassen Street. Andora Avenue provides one lane for the north and south direction and it
will provide access to the project roadways. Currently Andora Avenue traffic is controlled
by stop signs at Lassen Street.
Baden Avenue is a north-south Collector Street in the project vicinity. Baden Avenue
provides one lane each for the north and south direction. The roadway spans from Lassen
Street to Plummer Street in the project vicinity.
Transit Information
Public transportation in the study area is provided by the Metropolitan Transportation

Authority (Metro). The routes closest to this project are route 245, route 166, and route
364. These routes follow along Topanga Canyon Boulevard and Devonshire Street. They
provide access to the Warner Center area, Northridge fashion district and California State
University Northridge. These bus routes also provide access to the Chatsworth Metrolink
station. Bus line 245 provides access to the Metro Orange Line.

CHAPTER 4 PROJECT TRAFFIC
This chapter describes the procedures for estimating the potential traffic volume generated
by the project and its directional orientation.
Traffic Generation
Traffic-generating characteristics of single family homes have been studied by the Institute
of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The results of the traffic generation studies have been
published in Trip Generation, 7th and 8th Edition handbook. This publication of traffic
generation data has become the industry standard for estimating traffic generation for
different land uses. This impact study utilizes the ITE trip generation rates for estimating
the traffic generated by the proposed development on the project site. The 8th Edition of
the handbook was published after the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the traffic
study was completed with LADOT. A comparison of the 7th and 8th Edition of the
handbook indicates no differences between the two publications for the single family
home trip generation rates.
For the traffic impact analysis, no reductions due to transit, ride sharing, or existing uses
have been incorporated. It has been estimated that the traffic added to the adjacent
streets is 431 daily trips with 34 morning and 46 afternoon trips as displayed in Table 1.

Traffic Impact Study Project Traffic
Distribution of Trip Origins and Destinations
The primary factor affecting the distribution of the project traffic is the location of the
population and employment centers which would generate trip origins and
destinations. The estimated project directional trip distribution is also based on the
study area roadway network. Figure 4 illustrates the estimated area wide project
traffic distribution percentages. Figure 5 shows the project traffic distribution
percentages at each of the study intersections.
Assignment of Project Traffic Volume to Surrounding Streets
Traffic to and from the project site has been assigned to the most direct and reasonable
routes considering the adjacent on-street parking and surrounding street system. Using
the traffic assignment and the estimated peak hour traffic volume as provided in Table 1,
peak hour traffic volumes at each study location have been calculated and are shown in
Figure 6 for the morning and afternoon peak hours. This estimated assignment of the
project traffic flow provides the information necessary to analyze the potential traffic
impacts generated by the project at the study locations.

CHAPTER 5 TRAFFIC CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
Existing Peak Hour Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in the following peak hour intersectional analysis were based on
traffic counts provided by NDS Data, an independent traffic data collection company.
Traffic counts were conducted by counting the number of vehicles at each of the 3 study
intersections making each movement from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM and from 4:00 PM to 6:00
PM on a day when schools were in session (May 208). The peak hour volume for each
intersection was then determined by finding the four highest consecutive 15-minute
volumes for all movements. The traffic counts were increased by 2% to reflect growth to
current year 2009.
Analysis of Existing Traffic Conditions
The traffic conditions analysis was conducted using the Critical Movement Analysis
(CMA) method. All signalized study intersections were evaluated using this
methodology pursuant to the criteria established by LADOT. The peak hour traffic
counts were used along with current intersection geometrics and traffic controls to
determine the intersection’s operating condition. The CMA procedure uses a ratio of
the traffic volume to the intersection capacity to define the proportion of an hour
necessary to accommodate all the traffic moving through the intersection.
The CMA procedure adds the highest combination of conflicting traffic volume (V) at an
intersection and divides the sum by the intersection capacity (C) for a V/C ratio.
Intersection capacity represents the maximum volume of vehicles which has a
reasonable expectation of passing through an intersection in one hour under typical
traffic flow conditions. V/C ratios provide an ideal means for quantifying intersection
operating characteristics for planning purposes. For example, if an intersection has a
V/C value of 0.70, the intersection is operating at 70% capacity with 30% unused
capacity.
Once the volume-to-capacity ratio has been calculated, operating characteristics are
assigned a level of service grade (A through F) to estimate the level of congestion and

stability of the traffic flow. The term "Level of Service" (LOS) definitions used by traffic
engineers are provided in Table 2. Existing peak hour traffic volume at each study
intersection is illustrated in Figure 7 for the morning rush hour and Figure 8 for the
evening rush hour.
Table 2
Level of Service Definitions
LOS V/C Ratio Operating Conditions
A 0.000 – 0.600 At LOS A, there are no cycles that are fully loaded, and
few are even close to loaded and no vehicle waits longer
than one red indication. Typically, the approach appears
quite open, turning movements are easily made, and
nearly all drivers find freedom of operation.
B >0.600 – 0.700 LOS B represents stable operation. An occasional
approach phase is fully utilized and a substantial number
are approaching full use. Many drivers begin to feel
somewhat restricted with platoons of vehicles.
C >0.700 – 0.800 In LOS C stable operation continues. Full signal cycle
loading is still intermittent, but more frequent.
Occasionally drivers may have to wait through more than
one red signal, and back-ups may develop behind turning
vehicles.
D >0.800 – 0.900 LOS D encompasses a zone of increasing restriction,
approaching instability. Delays to approaching vehicles
may be substantial during short peaks within the peak
period, but enough cycles with lower demand occur to
permit periodic clearance of developing queues, thus
preventing excessive back-ups.
E >0.900 – 1.000 LOS E represents the most vehicles that any particular
intersection approach can accommodate. At capacity (V/C
= 1.00) there may be long queues of vehicles waiting
upstream of the intersection and delays may be great (up to
several signal cycles).
F >1.00 LOS F represents jammed conditions. Back-ups from
location downstream or on the cross street may restrict
or prevent movement of vehicles out of the approach
under consideration; hence, volumes carried are not
predictable. V/C values are highly variable, because full
utilization of the approach may be prevented by outside
conditions.

By applying these procedures to the intersection data, the CMA values and the
corresponding Levels of Service (LOS) for existing traffic conditions were determined for
each intersection. The LOS values are summarized in Table 3. Supporting capacity
worksheets are contained in Appendix E of this report.

Analysis of Future Traffic Conditions
Future traffic volume projections have been developed to analyze the traffic conditions
after completion of other planned land developments including the proposed project.
Pursuant to the City of Los Angeles traffic impact guidelines, the following steps have
been taken to develop the future traffic volume estimate:
(a) Existing traffic plus ambient growth (2.0 percent per year) to 2012 study year;
(b) Traffic in (a) plus related projects (without project scenario);
(c) Traffic in (b) with the proposed project traffic (with project scenario);
(d) Traffic in (c) plus the proposed traffic mitigation, if necessary.
The future cumulative analysis includes other development projects located within the
study area that are either under construction or planned. As part of this analysis,
development information was obtained from the City of Los Angles Department of
Transportation, City of Los Angeles Planning Department, and other studies in the area.
Other development projects that could produce additional traffic at the study
intersections by the future year 2012 were added to the future analysis. It should be
noted that this project, or any actions taken by the City regarding this project, does not
have a direct bearing on these other proposed related projects. The locations of twelve
(12) related projects are shown in Figure 9, with their descriptions provided in Table 4
and estimated traffic in Table 5.
The potential traffic impact of traffic increases has been calculated by adding the
existing traffic volume, the ambient growth factor and traffic from other development
projects. Future cumulative “without project” peak hour traffic volume estimates are
shown in Figures 10 and 11 for the morning and evening, respectively.

Comparing the changes in the traffic conditions between the different development
scenarios provides the necessary information to determine if the traffic increases create
a significant impact on the study intersections. According to the standards adopted by
LADOT, a traffic impact is considered significant if the related increase in the CMA
value equals or exceeds the thresholds shown in the table below.
LOS Final CMA Value Increase in CMA Value

C 0.71 - 0.80 + 0.04
D 0.81 - 0.90 + 0.02
E, F > 0.90 + 0.01 or more
The traffic impact of project’s traffic volume has been calculated by adding the project
volume to the non-project traffic growth. Table 7 contains the project impact values at
the study intersections. As shown, none of the study intersections are impacted by
project traffic using the significant impact criteria established by the City of Los Angeles
Department of Transportation. It should be noted that the impact analysis does not
consider any changes to the existing intersection configuration (i.e., future roadway

improvements). Future cumulative “with project” peak hour traffic volumes are shown in
Figures 12 and 13 for the morning and afternoon, respectively.

Congestion Management Program Review
The Congestion Management program (CMP) was adopted to track regional traffic
growth, building permits and transportation improvements. The CMP designated a
transportation network including all state highways and some arterials within the County
to be monitored by local jurisdictions. If the LOS standard deteriorates on the CMP
network, then local jurisdictions must prepare a deficiency plan to be in conformance with
the CMP program. Current changes to the CMP program being considered by local
officials include adding a countywide trip fee to mitigate regional cumulative impacts.
For purposes of the CMP, LOS analysis is required when the project will add 50 or more
trips during either the am or pm weekday peak hour. A substantial change in freeway
conditions is defined as an increase or decrease of 0.10 in the demand to capacity ratio
and a change in LOS. A CMP traffic impact analysis is required if a project will add 150
or more trips to a freeway segment in either direction during either the AM or PM
weekday peak hour. The closest CMP intersection to this project is Devonshire Street
and Topanga Canyon Boulevard. As shown in Figure 6, the estimated traffic volume
generated by the project does not exceed the CMP traffic limits. Therefore, no additional
CMP analysis is necessary.

CHAPTER 6 MITIGATION MEASURES
Using criteria established by the City of Los Angeles, it has been determined that the
change in traffic conditions associated with the project traffic will not significantly impact
the traffic flow at any of the study intersections.
