Kimley»> Horn Traffic Impact Analysis ENTRY GATE QUEUE ANALYSIS A 95" percentile entry gate queue analysis for the proposed development using the methodology outlined in ITE's Transportation and Land Development, 1988 was performed at the proposed parking garage entry gate located within the on -site parking garage as part of the project development. Note that the entry gate is proposed to be located at the entrance of the parking garage. The proposed entry gate will provide one (1) entry lane and one (1) exit lane. The entry gate is located approximately 304 feet away from public right-of-way. Valet attendants and self -parking residents will gain access via a key FOB/proximity card at the on -site parking garage. It was assumed that the average service rate will be approximately 600 vehicles per hour (6.0 seconds per vehicle) for the proximity card based on Parking Structures 3rd Edition: Planning, Design, Construction, Maintenance, and Repair, 2001. Based on the trip generation calculations prepared, a total of 22 weekday A.M. peak hour inbound trips and 40 weekday P.M. peak hour inbound trips are expected at the entry gate. The queuing analysis used .the single -channel waiting line model with Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. The queuing analysis is based on the coefficient of utilization, p, which is the ratio of the average vehicle arrival rate over the average service rate multiplied by the number of channels. If the coefficient of utilization (average service rate/valet attendant service capacity) is greater than one (>1), the calculation methodology does not yield a finite queue length. This result indicates overcapacity conditions for the entry gate area. The entry gate service capacity is the number of vehicles the entry gate can service in a one -hour period multiplied by the number of entry gates. The analysis determined the required queue storage, M, which is exceeded P percent of the time. This analysis seeks to examine if the queue length exceeds the storage provided at a level of confidence of 95 percent (95%). The results of the entry gate are summarized in Table 7. As Table 7 indicates, the queues at the proposed entry gate is expected to be accommodated within the provided storage during the weekday A.M. and P.M. peak hours. Therefore, vehicle queues are expected to be accommodated on -site without extending onto public -right-of-way. Detailed entry gate queue calculations are included in Appendix L.
