Re:
Proposed Car Wash 1043 North Broad Street (Route 5) Meriden, Connecticut Our File: 19172
Dear Mr. Szymanski: Pursuant to your request and authorization our office has prepared this letter to outline the potential impact of site generated traffic on local roadways, related to a proposed car wash proposed at 1043 North Broad Street (Route 5), in the Town of Meriden. The site location is presented in Figure 1. This report is intended to accompany an application to the Meriden Planning and Zoning Commission for site plan approval and to the ConnDOT District I Office for an application for an encroachment permit.
Proposed Site Plan The site proposed for development is located on the southeast corner of the intersection of Route 5 and Twiss Avenue. The proposed site plan was prepared by Arthur H. Howland & Associates, P.C. and is dated August 28, 2019. The plan depicts a 4,200 s.f. building located in the center of the parcel, with a single automated wash tunnel. There are six (6) parking spaces and thirteen (13) vacuum stations provided in the front of the parcel. The proposed car wash provides an automated tunnel to service vehicles, with a drive aisle that navigates the site in a counterclockwise direction. Although only a single wash tunnel is provided, there are three lanes provided for queuing vehicles. Access to the site is proposed via an entrance driveway from North Broad Street. Egress is proposed to Twiss Avenue.

Existing Conditions Route 5 is a state maintained highway that traverses the state of Connecticut in a north/south direction. Route 5 originates in the city of New Haven and extends in a northerly direction generally paralleling 1-91. Route 5 enters Cheshire from the town of Wallingford. Access is provided to 1-691 before the roadway continues north past the subject site and then into the town of Berlin. Route 5 continues north through Harftord and Enfield and into Massachusetts. In the vicinity of the proposed site Route 5 is named North Broad Street. The road provides approximately 40 feet of pavement and provides a single travel lane in each direction separated by a painted double yellow centerline. The southbound travel lane has a very faded painted shoulder. The posted speed limit is 35 miles per hour. Land use in the area is primarily residential but includes automotive repair shops and restaurants in the surrounding area of the proposed site.
Twiss Avenue is a local roadway that begins at an unsignalized T-intersection with North Broad Street and extends in an easterly direction a distance of approximately 600 feet to a dead end. The roadway provides approximately 20 feet of pavement with a single lane in each direction. The roadway is not marked. Twiss Avenue operates under stop-sign control and there is no posted speed limit. Land use along the roadway is residential.
Background Traffic The Connecticut DOT maintains a traffic volume count program on all state highways and some local roadways. Included in the database is a count on Route 5 south of Westfield Road. That count conducted during May 2016 indicates an average daily traffic volume (ADT) of 14,400 vehicles per day with peak hour volumes of 1,159 vehicles during the morning peak hour (7:00 a.m.) and 1,344 vehicles during the afternoon peak hour (5:00 p.m.). The ConnDOT counts do not include Saturday Volumes. The count is presented in Table 1.
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 3
The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Report was consulted for finding the trips generated from the 13-units of single-family detached homes located on Twiss Avenue. The results are included in Table 2 and the worksheets are provided in the appendix.
Figure 2 presents the existing traffic volumes during peak hours. We have assumed a directional distribution of 60/40 during the morning and afternoon peak hours, with the higher percentage southbound in the morning peak hour and in the northbound direction during the afternoon peak hour. A directional distribution of 50/50 was assumed for the Saturday peak hour, utilizing the morning peak hour volume. The residential traffic for Twiss Avenue, as calculated by ITE was included in the figure.
A review of recent ConnDOT counts indicates that traffic volumes have decreased from the years 2013 to 2016. The proposed development if approved is anticipated to be completed and open for business during 2022. Since recent traffic volumes have declined, no growth rate is necessary. Therefore, Figure 2 presents the background traffic volumes for the study area during peak hours.
Site Generated Traffic
In order to determine the trip generation for the proposed site, the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Report was consulted. Trip Generation presents trip generation estimates for many land uses based on counts conducted at existing facilities throughout the country. Included within the ITE database is Land Use Code 948: Automated Car Wash. Trip generation for the land use is based on the square footage of the building and the number of service bays. Using the ITE Data the facility would be expected to generate 59 trips during the afternoon and Saturday peak hours. For the purpose of this report we have rounded that up to 60 trips. This volume
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 4 is made up of 30 entering and 30 exiting movements. The ITE data does not include morning peak hour volumes.
The proposed operator has indicated that they anticipate a peak hour volume of 60 vehicles. This will result in a total of 120 trips, made up of 60 entering and 60 exiting movements. For purposes of this study we have utilized the 120 trips for the morning, afternoon and Saturday peak hours. The Trip generation results are summarized in Table 2.
The directional distribution for site generated traffic was calculated using the directional distribution that was applied to the background traffic volumes, 60/40 for the morning and afternoon peak hours, and 50/50 for the Saturday peak hour. The directional distribution for the morning, afternoon, and Saturday peak hours is shown in Figure 3. Applying this distribution to the site generated traffic volumes in Table 2 provides the turning movements into the site driveway for each peak hour. These volumes are presented in Figure 4. By adding the site generated traffic in Figure 4 to the existing traffic volumes in Figure 2 the combined traffic volumes can be determined. These volumes are presented in Figure 5.
Capacity Analysis Capacity analyses were conducted for the background and combined traffic volumes. The analysis was completed for the intersections of North Broad Street with Twiss Avenue and North Broad Street with the proposed site entrance; utilizing the intersection capacity analysis program called SYNCHRO. The analyses were conducted for the morning, afternoon and Saturday peak hours.
The intersection of North Broad Street (Route 5) with Twiss Avenue is an existing unsignalized T-intersection with Route 5 oriented in the north-south direction and Twiss Avenue approaching from the east. Each approach from each direction provides a
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 5 single travel lane and Twiss Avenue operates under stop-sign control. Analysis indicates that during the Saturday peak hours the westbound approach remains at a LOS C for both background and combined traffic volumes. During the morning and afternoon peak hours under the background traffic volumes the westbound approach operates at a LOS C and under the combined traffic volumes operates at a LOS D. The northbound and southbound approaches operate at a LOS A during all the peak hours for both the background and combined traffic volumes.
The intersection of North Broad Street with the site entrances is a proposed driveway that is restricted to entering vehicles only. The northbound and southbound approaches operate at a LOS A during all peak hours under the combined traffic volume conditions.
Sight Distance The Connecticut Department of Transportation has published its requirements for the application of sight distances at intersections and driveways as adopted in December of 2003. In general, the intersection sight distance (ISO) is the available sight distance allowing a driver approaching an intersection to observe the vehicles on the crossing roadway or opposing direction. Therefore, the ISO varies according to the speed of traffic and distance crossed while performing the maneuver. The clear line of sight is measured from a minimum of 15 feet behind the edge of road or traveled way to a point within the center of the nearest approaching lane, while the ISO is the line of sight projected along the length of the roadway. The sightline should be measured at a height of 3 feet 6 inches from the beginning point (driver's eye level) to the end point at a height of 3 feet 6 inches (to an approaching vehicle). A summary of the guidelines is contained in the appendix.
Our observations at the proposed site driveways indicates that the available sight distances are in excess of 500 feet in each direction. These sight distances meet the
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 6 current ConnDOT requirement for an approach speed of 45 miles per hour. Route 5 is posted at 35 miles per hour.
Drive Thru Queuing A standard Poison queue analysis was conducted for the proposed car wash automated wash lane to determine the required vehicle stacking distance for this site. The results of that analysis are presented in Table 4. The operator of the facility indicates that they will operate the tunnel with a service rate of 60 vehicles an hour during normal operations. During peak hours, they will adjust the service rate to a rate of 90 vehicles an hour. Therefore the queueing analysis was conducted based on a service rate of 40 seconds per vehicle (90 veh/hr) and a peak hour demand volume of 60 vehicles (double the volume based on the ITE data and consistent with the demand volume provided by the operator). The analysis indicates the expected queue length would be 2 vehicles with an average waiting time of 80 seconds per vehicle. The probability that the queue would exceed ten ( 10) vehicles is approximately 1% .
The proposed site plan provides approximately 620 feet of vehicle storage split into three lanes. The available storage is capable of accommodating a total of thirty one (31) vehicles at an average of 20 feet per vehicle.
Accident Data The University of Connecticut Crash Data Repository gathers and compiles traffic accident data for all state highways and some major local roadways. A list of accidents occurring in the area from January 1st , 2016 through October 1st , 2019 includes the most recent 3 years of available data. In the appendix are the UCONN tables relating the accidenls lo various condilions including dale, lime, roadway and wealher conditions, collision types, and other variables.
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 7 A 3 year accident history was compiled for Route 5, for a distance of 500 feet south of the Route 5 intersection with the proposed site entrance, 500 feet north of the Route 5 intersection with Twiss Avenue, and for the entirety of Twiss Avenue. A total of twentysix (26) accidents were recorded during the three-year time period reviewed. Twelve (12) of the accidents were front to rear, five (5) of the accidents were side-swipe same direction accidents, five (5) were angle accidents, three (3) were not applicable to a category and one (1) was a side-swipe opposite direction crash. Of the twenty-six (26) total accidents twenty-two (22) were property damage only, three (3) involved possible injuries, and one ( 1) involved suspected injuries. There were no reported fatalities.
There were only five (5) reported accidents within 250 feet of Twiss Avenue. Of those crashes two (2) were angled crashes, two (2) were side-swipe same direction and one (1) was a front to rear crash. All five (5) crashes were property damage only.
Conclusions The proposed development is projected to generate a total of 60 trips during the morning, afternoon and Saturday peak hours. For the purposes of our analysis we used a total of 120 trips during the morning, afternoon and Saturday peak hours. A capacity analysis indicates that the westbound approach (Twiss Avenue) will operate at a LOS C during the morning and afternoon peak hour under the background traffic conditions and at a LOS D under the combined traffic conditions. The other approaches will remain at the same level of service under both the background and combined traffic volume conditions during all peak times. The site driveway is properly located with respect to adjacent intersections and is properly designed to accommodate the anticipated driveway volumes.
Based on this information it is my professional opinion that the existing roadway network has enough excess capacity to accommodate the anticipated traffic for the proposed
Mr. Szymanski October 24, 2019 Page 8 development. The site driveways are properly located and designed to accommodate the anticipated traffic volumes.
We appreciate the opportunity to provide this information to you. A representative from our firm will be available to present testimony before local commissions if needed. If you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact our office.
