:;?/ .E -..s- SCOPE OF WORK REDWOOD CITY DOWNTOWN PRECISE PLAN 5) Cumulative With Project (Preferred Alternative) - This year 2025 cumulative analysis will included pending projects in the immediate project area and that of the preferred project alternative. Task 7 Traffic Impacts and Mitigation Measures Project impacts will be determined according to the criteria established by Redwood City and the San Mateo City/County Association of Governments (C/CAG). Study intersections will be evaluated using the TRAFFIX software package. City and County standards of significance will be applied to a comparison of the No Project and Project scenarios. Freeway segments and rmaps will be analyzed based on the methodologies set forth in the Highway Capacity Manual. Mitigation measures could include such items as additional intersection geometry, traffic control modifications, transit improvements, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, neighborhood traffic control, TDM measures, etc. Task 8 Transit Evaluation The existing transit system will be reviewed and evaluated to determine its effectiveness in serving the proposed project. This analysis will include incorporating enhanced bus service within the project study area and determining the impact of existing and proposed SamTrans and Caltrain/HSR service. A written and graphical description of the existing and planned transit services located near the project will be developed. This description will include the following: - Transit route descriptions and maps - Transit station/stop locations - Transit schedule and headway information Task 9 Non-Motorized Travel Evaluation The bicycle and pedestrian facilities, both existing and proposed, will be described for the study area. Included in this description will be official bicycle and pedestrian paths and lanes, sidewalks, and any informal routes established by uses. Each of the routes will be characterized in terms of safety, comfort, and attractiveness. The project's connectivity to surrounding uses, such as major employment centers, commercial/retail facilities, and transit systems will be discussed and evaluated Task 10 Draft Report KORVE will prepare the administrative draft traffic report and submit it to the EIR consultant and the City for initial review. After initial review the draft traffic report will be submitted to the City for review and comment. Upon receipt of comments the final report will be prepared. Task 11 Final Report KORVE will address comments on the traffic analysis for inclusion in the final traffic report. KORVE will review comments received and separate comments which require new data and/or analysis from those which can be addressed using information readily available from studies accomplished for the traffic report.
