It has been our experience that for planning purposes, we would expect to have a normal enrollment of some 75 students, Grades K-12, who would be residing in the 71 Graham Village units. We are basing this projection on the information you provided that these homes will be constructed under the South Windsor zoning regulations, Section DA-15, "little homes." Further, we feel the majority of the anticipated enrollment would be in our elementary schools. We note with interest that you have a bus shelter incorporated in your planning, shown on the preliminary topographical sketch. It is also helpful if such developments provide sidewalks for the use of students. Since ely yours, Steven A. Wlodarczyk, Acting Superintendent of Schools SAW-ws cc: D. C.

Our study was conducted so that we might gather information on existing traffic operations in the vicinity of this site and to permit us to determine the impact on that traffic that would result from a new land use of 71 one and two family homes proposed by your office at the southwest corner of the intersection of these roadways. Our traffic study included observations of existing traffic patterns in the area, development of information on background traffic volumes and a study of the potential traffic generation that may result. We also have worked with the office of Palmberg & Russo in the development of these plans and provided our recommendations (from an traffic engineer ' s point of view) traffic studies traffic engineering traffic planning on the location of access and egress points and the basic circulation pattern within the property. It is anticipated that the data presented in our study will be utilized by your office as well as the architect, site planner, and South Windsor Town Officials in assessing the impact that might be expected from this land use as compared with the impact that might result from development of this parcel under its present zoning classification. During the conduct of our study we gathered traffic count data available from the Planning, Inventory, and Data Section in the Bureau of Planning and Research for the Connecticut Department of Transportation, and we conducted our own sampling traffic counts program on Graham Road both north and south of Ayers Road, as well as on Ayers Road both east and west of Graham Road. Our studies, also included a review of turning movements accomplished at the intersection of Graham Road and Sullivan Avenue as well as at Ayers Road and Sullivan Avenue. We also conducted an analysis of the traffic generation characteristics of residential land use so that we could provide a projection of anticipated hourly traffic volumes expected at a new residential community. Ayers Road is a two-lane South Windsor roadway providing approximately 26 ' of pavement between its intersection with Graham Road and its intersection with Nevers Road, less than 2, 000 feet to the east. The roadway is posted at 25 MPH with parking prohibitions on both sides throughout its length and a double yellow center line along the roadway to separate opposing traffic flows. Land use along the roadway consists of a half a dozen or so residential properties in the Sunset Terrace neighborhood of the north side of the roadway and school use and playgrounds along the southern frontage of the roadway and at the northwest corner of the intersection of Ayers Road with Nevers Road where there are several ballfields. The athletic fields are utilized by the South Windsor Little League, the Midget Football program, High School athletic activities and activities associated with the many uses of the Wapping Elementary School including the Senior Citizens Center, Community Center and the Day Care Center. Thus pedestrian activity, use by bicycles and school buses is a common occurrence along Ayers Road, a roadway which is lacking both sidewalks and curbing. The intersection of Graham Road at Ayers Road is controlled by stop signs at all approaches to the intersection and painted crosswalks are in place for pedestrian activity on all legs of the intersection . Graham Road to the north of Ayers Road is a two-lane residential roadway posted at lO MPH with fully developed residential land use throughout its length on the east side of the roadway and vacant land on the parcel proposed for development on the west side of the road. To the north of the parcel proposed for development as DA-15, land use is residential on both side of Graham Road. This road is posted at X) MPH and is provided with a double yellow center line to separate the opposing flows of traffic with curbing provided along those sections of the roadway which have been developed as home sites. Sidewalks are not present on either side of this roadway. Four way stop control is in place at the intersection of Graham Road with Hayes Road and Steep Road. Graham Road continues about 400 ' south of Ayers Road to intersect Sullivan Avenue and Ayers Road continues about 400 ' west of Graham Road to intersect Sullivan Avenue. Thus there is a large triangular area formed by Sullivan Avenue, Ayers Road and Graham Road, with two-way traffic on all sides of the triangle area. Stop signs control traffic on Ayers Road and Graham Road at the point where they intersect Sullivan Avenue. The land area within the triangle is currently being developed as the West View Office Park, a condominium office development. That complex: has about 50 parking spaces, and is provided with a single driveway intersecting Ayers Road about 200 ' west of the intesection of Ayers Road and Graham Road. The building and the parking areas do not seem to be large enough to bring about a significant traffic impact in this area. Our observations indicate that traffic operations in this area are generally satisfactory with no areas of frequent traffic congestion and no areas of obvious hazard. There is, at some times, a lengthy backup of traffic along Graham Road attempting to enter Sullivan Avenue, particularly during the heavy morning commuter peak: periods. We have observed that traffic entering Sullivan Avenue does have some difficulty during heavy traffic periods since the view of traffic to the right towards sorthbound traffic on Sullivan requires drivers to turn their heads about 160 degrees and to select a safe gap in southbound traffic while trying to guess whether northbound traffic is going to turn right (actually continue straight) into Graham Road or bear left to continue to travel on Sullivan Avenue. We had recommended to Mr. Russo early in the planning process to select a driveway location which would minimize the possibility that new traffic from the proposed land use would make that same maneuver. Estimates of the daily and peak hour traffic in the study area were developed based upon data maintained in the Connecticut Department of Transportation and sampling counts conducted by our office in the study area in May of 1985. The following table depicts the estimates of average daily traffic as well as the AM and peak: hour volumes based upon our studies. Average Daily AM Peak; PM Peak: Location Traffic Hour Hour Graham Road north of Ayers Road 4, 000� 450 500 Graham Road south of Ayers Road 4, 000 i00 425 475 Ayers Road east of Graham Road 2, 600 250 30o • Ayers Road west of Graham Road 2, 700 250 325 Sullivan Avenue south of Graham Road 15, 000 1 , 250 1 , 350 Sullivan Avenue north of Ayers Road 12, 000 1 , 100 1 , 200 Average daily traffic (ADT) is defined as the total two-way traffic passing a given point in a 24-hour period. The word "average" in ADT indicates the traffic found on an average day. Some days in the week and some seasons of the year produce traffic up to 20 higher or lower than average on highways in suburban areas. The peak hour traffic is that traffic found during the heaviest 60-minute period typically occurring between 6: 45 and 8: .30 AM and 3: 45 and 5: 45 PM in the South Windsor area. Our studies in this location reveal that the heaviest hour in the morning occurs in the 60-minute period from 7 to 8 AM and the heaviest traffic during the afternoon commuter peak is in the period extending from 4: 20 to 5: 30 FM. Graham Road and Ayers Road carry traffic volumes which would place them in the "medium" traffic levels as defined in South Windsor ' s transportation study of June, 19e2. Traffic on Sullivan Avenue carries traffic volumes defined in the transportation study as in the "heavy" classification. Figures 1 illustrates the hourly variations in traffic as recorded on Sullivan Avenue north of pierce Road, a location where the Connecticut Department of Transportation lists the 1985 average daily traffic as 15, 000 vehicles. Figures 2 and 3, illustrate the hourly variations on Graham Road south of Ayers Road and Ayers Road west of Graham Road based upon our counts of May, 1985. Figures 4 through 7 illustrate the turning movements recorded during the morning and afternoon commuter; periods at the intersection of Graham Road and Ayers Road. A determination of the traffic to and from a proposed land use involves an analysis of both the traffic generation characteristics of condominium lend uses and an analysis of the anticipated directional distribution of traffic with origins or destinations within the site. Generation characteristics of multi-family land uses including condominiums have been adequately studied in the past and can serve as the basis for realistic projections of traffic expected at a proposed land use with 71 living units. Those studies have shown that single- family detached housing generated average weekday vehicle trip ends of about 10 automotive trips per dwelling unit. Apartment complexes generate traffic between 6 and 7 trip ends per unit per day while condominiums generate traffic at a rate slightly more than 5 trips per unit per day. I have had the opportunity to review the traffic generation at other South Windsor property proposed for development under the DA-15 zoning classification. In connection with those studies we developed generation characteristics at Fond Place in Avon, a community of clustered single-family homes similar to that envisioned in South Windsor ' s DA-15 zoning classification. The Avon property perhaps still provides the most reliable basis of an estimate of traffic since none of the DA-15 ' s under construction in South Windsor have been completed to the point that traffic studies can be conducted at completed facilities. The Fond Place facility has 210 living units and generates daily traffic at a rate between 6 and 6-1/2 trips per day per dwelling unit. Our office has conducted counts in the past extending over, several days at the Candlewood/Bryrewood condominium complex off Ellington Road about ? miles to the southwest of this location. Those studies indicates daily traffic generation at that facility at slightly less than 5 trips per dwelling unit per day. We have also had the opportunity to conduct traffic counts at Pleasant Valley apartments and at Byrnewood at Chapel Road with the finding that peak hour traffic rarely exceeds 1/2 of one trip per dwelling unit. This is consistent with most studies of multi-family housing, which indicates that the heaviest traffic hour of the day generally produces between 8 and 10 of the daily total traffic . Based upon our previous studies, both in Connecticut and as published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers, we would estimate that 71 units of clustered housing in South Windsor ' s DA-15 zone with a building makeup similar to that found at Pond Place in Avon would produce between 425 and 460 additional trips with peak hour traffic ranging from 35 to 45 trips. We recommend a placement of driveways to serve this community in such a way as to discourage additional traffic southbound on Graham Road to the acute angle intersection at Sullivan Avenue. Also we have recommended that driveways to serve the property connect to Ayers Road rather than to Graham Road to encourage use of Ayers Road. Any access to Graham Road should be limited to emergency vehicles so as to reduce the impact of this development on that roadway. We have also recommended that the driveway to Ayers Road be placed midway between the Sullivan Avenue intersection and the Graham Road intersection so as to minimize any impact on intersection operations that may result from traffic turning into and out of this location. The 1980 Census data indicates that almost 10, 000 automotive trips originate within South Windsor each day. Of these, 1 , 554 or about 16% have destinations in South Windsor. A total of 45% have destinations in Hartford or East Hartford, 12 in Manchester, 4% in Windsor and about 2-1/2% each in Bloomfield and West Hartford. A total of less than 10% have destinations in East Windsor, Enfield, Windsor Locks, Suffield and locations to the north . Obviously then the principal destination for all traffic coming and going to this location will be along Sullivan Avenue to the south toward Route 30 and the Interstate 84 area in Manchester. There are limited destinations served by travel along Graham Road to the north or Ayers and Nevers Road to the east. The directional distribution from this land use then we would estimate to be virtually all directly to Sullivan Avenue with more than eo than to the south along Sullivan Avenue, and less than 20% to the north. The area of greatest traffic impact then is along sections of Sullivan Avenue to the south, an area where major construction is currently under way and nearing completion in the Sand Hill Road area, with other improvements contemplated in the not too distant future in the Five Corners Area and on Buckland Road between Five Corners and Route 86. It is worth noting, in reviewing the traffic impact of this plan, that all the land use can be accommodated with a single driveway intersecting Ayers Road. Conventional subdivision development on a parcel of this nature generally involves one or- more town roadways intersecting both of the adjoining streets. In addition, a conventional subdivision would break up the frontage along both existing town roads into the minimum lot size providing a driveway every 100 to 150 ' . Development of the property under a planned DA-15 use would eliminate all driveways to Graham Road (unless emergency access is required) and provide for the intersection of only a single public highway onto Ayers Road. We have also learned that, in connection with this proposal , the Town of South Windsor will offer for sale to the developers a section of excess land on the north side of Ayers Road between the site driveway and Sullivan Avenue. We would recommend that the sale of that land be reviewed carefully to insure that sufficient land is available within the public right of way at some later date to provide turning lanes or other widening of Ayers Road to increase the capacity and traffic control measures available at the intersection of Ayers Road and Sullivan Avenue. Eased upon our review of existing roadways and traffic conditions in the Ayers Road/Graham Road area, and taking into account the expected traffic generation which would result from a zone change and development of 71 new homes on a 25 acre parcel north of Ayers Road and east of Graham Road, it is our opinion that the existing roadway and traffic control measures in the vicinity of this site are adequate to accept the traffic increases that would result from this development. We are pleased to have the opportunity to provide you with our analysis of this site and shall be available as may be necessary to assist in the presentation of our findings to appropriate officials in the Town of South Windsor.
