Congestion

Roundabout Project Need  Long Traffic Q’s and excessive delay on E/B Holman Hwy 68 Q’s extend well beyond CHOMP Impact to public safety / access to hospital  Operations / Safety at PB Gate Acceleration from Holman Hwy to southbound Hwy 1 entrance ramp Reduction in crashes and crash severity  Dramatic Emission Reduction - as compared to signal

Operations

Interim Signal Alternative Project PM Peak

Existing Condition Project PM Peak

Existing Traffic Signal Condition 250’

40 MPH

What About Converting the Existing Intersections?

Tighter Radius = Slower Speed, Slower Speeds = Less Merge Distance Req’d Less Downstream Merge Distance Req’d Improved Pedestrian Safety Improved Entry/View Angle Longer Merge Distance Improved Lane Utilization Separation of Decision Making / Improved Signing and Lane Choice Design Optimization-Overview 135/2/2013 Improved Channelization

Improved Entry/View Angle Separation of Decision Making / Improved Signing and Lane Choice Design Optimization 145/2/2013

200’ 75’ Tighter Rad = Slower Speed 125’ merge distance Req’d Defined Intersection Movements = Simplified Driver Decisions = Safer Improved Bike Lane Delineation 155/2/2013 Design Optimization – Off Ramp “Built To Deliver”

Improved View Angles (12 deg.) Sends Correct Priority Message Entering Yield to Circulating Traffic Design Optimization 165/2/2013“Built To Deliver”

Design Optimization 175/2/2013“Built To Deliver”

The Timing is Right  Pebble Beach Project Approved  Concept Plan Complete  Stakeholders On-Board  Relinquishment In Process

Next Steps  Engineering Design  Project Report Amendment  EIR Addendum  Public Outreach and Education  Construction

Design Optimization - Challenges Merging Thru Down- Stream Intersection Un-Defined Intersection Vehicular and Bicyclists Safety Concerns Large RT Radius = Higher Speed 205/2/2013 Longer Merge Distance Lane Choice/Complexity Compressed Decision Making Dist. Difficult to Sign “Built To Deliver”

Design Optimization - Challenges Flat Entry Angle 215/2/2013 Very Short Merge Distance Lane Utilization Truck/Freight Concerns Poor View Angle to Left Priority Confusion / Merge Behavior Entry-Circulating Crashes “Built To Deliver”
