<br />• PROFESSIONAL at Atlantic Boulevard and 183rd Street, the Norman B. Edelcup Sunny Isles Beach K-8 School
<br />® REGISTRATIONS was approved for up to 1,642 students. Faced with traffic impact concerns due to the limited
<br /> Registered Professional on-site space, Mr. Penfield, as Project Manager, devised a series of Transportation Demand
<br />® Engineer,FL#56717 Management strategies to minimize the school's impact upon the adjacent neighborhoods
<br />® and Collins Avenue. Walk-To-School and Bike-To-School programs, coupled with school
<br /> Registered Professional bus service within the School Board's 2-mile exclusion radius, were examples of tools
<br />• Engineer employed to reduce vehicular demand. Effective use of police and traffic control personnel
<br />® MI#62010522I2 at key street locations next to the school allowed for an orderly flow of automobiles during
<br /> the school's arrival and dismissal periods.

<br />® AFFILIATIONS SPECIFIC TRAFFIC ACCESS MANAGEMENT STUDY, SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL:
<br /> Institute ofTransportation A detailed traffic management plan was evaluated at three site specific locations within the
<br />® Engineers City of Sunny isles Beach. The feasibility of replacing the unsignalized intersection of 178th
<br />• Street and Atlantic Boulevard with a roundabout as well as using flexible bollards on 183rd
<br /> Street west of Collins Avenue and on 178th west of Collins Avenue was evaluated. These
<br />• treatments are intended to improve overall traffic and pedestrian safety and operations, as
<br />® well as improve access management on local city streets.
<br />® GENERAL TRAFFIC ENGINEERING SERVICES, SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL: Mr.
<br />• Penfield, acting as the Project Manager for Traffic Engineering, conducted intersection and
<br /> corridor safety studies,and queuing analyses,as part of the site plan approval process.Reviews
<br />® include traffic impact and trip generation analyses, traffic operations, site access/circulation,
<br /> 0 stacking/queuing analysis, marking review, geometric considerations, and safety compliance.
<br /> Site plan reviews were also performed to ensure adequate traffic flow is maintained in
<br />® accordance with FDOT Access Management Guidelines to maintain integrity of the
<br />• transportation system. Most tasks required significant coordination with intergovernmental
<br /> agencies.
