P. Transportation/Traffic. Consultant shall describe existing roads, public transit, bicycle and pedestrian facilities in the project area and will answer the CEQA checklist questions regarding transportation and traffic. The proposed project would increase traffic on local roads in the project area during constructi on due to construction vehicles and workers accessing the site. Lane closures would likely be required to install the new water pipeline in Jefferson Avenue. A traffic management plan will be needed to prevent hazards and minimize delays on local roadways during project construction. No long term increase in traffic would result from the project after construction.
