<br />12/17/2007 <br /> <br />2005 Congestion Management Program. Until the project meets these requirements to C/CAG <br />satisfaction, the project's potential effects on C/CAG's CMP roadway network in the PM peak <br />hours are considered to be significant. <br /> <br />Mitigation 7-11: Based on the C/CAG requirements, and as required under <br />Mitigation 7-2 herein, the project sponsor shall implement and maintain a transportation demand <br />management (TOM) program that meets the requirements presented in the C/CAG Guidelines <br />for the Implementation of the Land Use Component of the 2005 Congestion Management <br />Program in order to reduce the number of trips on the CMP roadway network. The TOM <br />program, to be developed by the project sponsor, must be approved by both the City of <br />Redwood City and C/CAG prior to City approval of any tentative subdivision map or <br />development agreement for the proposed project. <br /> <br />Findings: This mitigation measure is feasible and reduces the impact to a less- <br />than-significant level. <br /> <br />G. Proiect Drivewav Safety Impacts <br /> <br />Potential Impact 7-12: If not properly aligned and accompanied by sight line <br />obstruction controls (landscaping and street trees could limit sight distance for drivers entering <br />and existing driveways), one or more of the project driveway connections to Bair Island Road <br />could be dangerous intersections, representing a significant impact. <br /> <br />Mitigation 7-12: The following guidelines shall be followed in finalizing project <br />access details: <br /> <br />1. All driveways shall be aligned with existing driveways on the opposite <br />side of Bair Island Road. If the driveways cannot be aligned, a minimum <br />of 150-feet offset shall be provided between opposing driveways to <br />minimize conflicting turning movements in the center two-way left turn <br />lane. <br /> <br />2. To minimize the potential for visual restrictions, a minimum sight distance <br />of 200 feet shall be maintained at each driveway based on a posted <br />speed limit of 25 mph and a design speed of 30 mph (assumed to be 5 <br />mph higher than posted). This distance is the minimum distance that a <br />driver of an exiting vehicle in a driveway should be able to see in each <br />direction. <br /> <br />3. Channelization of the driveways shall be provided to clearly direct drivers <br />along safe vehicle paths and minimize pavement area. <br /> <br />Findings: Incorporation of these measures in the final project access details is <br />feasible and would reduce this impact to a less-than-significant level. <br /> <br />H. Proiect Internal Circulation Impact <br /> <br />Potential Impact 7-13: The project's internal vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle <br />circulation plan remains conceptual at this point.
