1 NEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL #1 Open BLPC Meeting January 9, 2013

2 It s for the Students! Maintain class size Hold fewer classes in relocatables Minimize travel distance to school

3 Project Delay and it s impact New school must open in September months for concept design has become 5. Reducing design period impacts quality. Construction period will be reduced by 2 months. Reduction of construction period impacts cost.

4 Revised Project Schedule

5 Resolved at Concept Design January 2013 Location of building on site Overall building height and general building massing General layout of program spaces by floor Location of parent & bus drop off/pick up Location of parking areas & approximate on site/offsite parking count Location of major site amenities Overall landscape/pedestrian circulation concepts Transportation analysis/major off site improvements

6 Resolved at Schematic Design April 2013 Building design in accordance with educational specifications External elevations/exterior materials/fenestration Landscape plan and site layout Preliminary civil engineering documentation Expect site and building design to be almost identical to what will be built

7 Resolved during Use Permit process June 2013 Parking count and location Storm water management and quality control Environmental assessment Detailed site and civil engineering design Use permit conditions, eg: TDM, construction procedures plan Off site improvements

8 Upcoming Open Meetings Date Event Purpose 01/14/13 Gallery Walk Public review of work to date 01/17/13 School/County Board Joint work session 01/24/13 School Board Information item on final concept design 02/07/13 School Board Action item on final concept design

9 Planning Principles revealed through design workshops 1. Design and enhance large scale open spaces for joint use by the school and community. 2. Design multi-modal transportation options that promote safe, healthy, alternative choices for children, parents teachers, staff and community members. 3. Create and communicate a sense of place, identity and meaning with 21 st century educational purpose

10 Planning Principles revealed through design workshops 4. Design attractive, appealing indoor and outdoor places that satisfy age appropriate needs for comfort, safety and a sense of belonging. 5. Create a variety of grade-level appropriate play and learning environments that promote physical activity, social engagement and experiential learning. 6. Optimize passive design strategies for energy conservation, sustainable ecologies and projectbased learning opportunities.

11 Summary of Recommendations

12 Current On site Parking Current Staff Current Peak Visitors Current % of peak parking demand fulfilled on site WMS % ES Average %

13 Estimated Future Students Estimated Future Staff Estimated Future Visitors Estimated Max. Future Parking Demand WMS 1, New ES # TOTAL 1, Maximum assumes all future staff and visitors drive and park at the same time.

14 Accommodate a total estimated parking demand of 274 vehicles through a combination of on site parking spaces and utilization of on street facilities = 86% of peak Total Parking Demand Accommodated Onsite On street WMS New ES # On street parking available (approx. 60 on school side of N Harrison, 35 on school side of 36 th Street) On street parking may provide traffic calming Currently 14% of WMS and comparable school staff report using travel modes other than SOV County Master Plan: encourage use of residential on street parking where current utilization is 60% or less

15 Concept MS / 90 ES 250 = 78% peak 24 (of 95) on street Concept MS / 90 ES 250 = 78% peak 24 (of 95) on street Concept MS / 90 ES 250 = 78% peak 24 (of 95) on street

16 Data Collection Existing Conditions Intersection Movement Counts 7:00AM to 9:00AM 2:00PM to 6:00PM Cars, HV, Peds, Bicycles Daily Traffic Counts 7 days, 24 hours per day Additional data Parent surveys Student tallies Driveway counts

17 Existing Conditions Middle School Arrival Operations Middle School Dismissal Operations No Operational Concerns One Movement at LOS E/LOS F

18 Old Dominion/Edison Middle School Arrival Operations Delay left turns onto Old Dominion Modeling does not demonstrate passing on the right Low volumes left turns would not meet traffic signal warrant (even with expansion) TDG supports County projects; made additional safety recommendations No Operational Concerns One Movement at LOS E/LOS F

19 Future Trip Generation Assumptions WMS students increase from 950 to 1,300 Elementary School will have 600 future students Estimated Future Vehicle Trips (in and out = 2 trips) Arrival Dismissal WMS 961 Total (259 New) 547 Total (147 New) New ES # Background Growth 3.6% Growth over 7 years

20 Existing Infrastructure w/future Trips Middle School Arrival Operations F No Operational Concerns One Movement at LOS E/LOS F Two Movements at LOS E/LOS Note: Middle School Dismissal, New ES#1 Arrival and Dismissal no operational concerns

21 Off-Site Improvements based on transportation studies Turning lanes added at Williamsburg and N. Harrison No left turn from Harrison onto 36 th Street during arrival and dismissal Crossing signal or traffic light at Williamsburg and Kensington Improved pedestrian crossing at Williamsburg and Kensington, including expanded median

22 Adding Capacity Southbound & Northbound Turn Lanes N Current Lanes N Recommended Lanes Williamsburg Boulevard N. Harrison St 22

23 Operations Added Turn Lanes and Future Trips (Current Mode Split) N N. Harrison St LEGEND LOS D or better LOS E or worse Williamsburg Boulevard 23

24 Operations Added Turn Lanes and Future Trips (Rainy Day 1/3) N LEGEND LOS D or better LOS E or worse N. Harrison St Over threshold for LOS D by 1.8 seconds. Williamsburg Boulevard 24

25 Operations Added Turn Lanes and Future Trips Rainy Day 2/3 N N. Harrison St LEGEND LOS D or better LOS E or worse 55 to 80 second delay Williamsburg Boulevard 25

26 Improvements at Williamsburg & Kensington

27 Design Conditions 1. MS arrival from 7:00 to 8:00am. On-site counts in September showed 310 vehicular drop-offs; increased to potential early drop-offs at ES. 2. MS dismissal from 2:15 to 3:25pm. On-site counts showed 202 vehicular pick-ups; increased to potential early pick-ups at ES. 3. ES arrival from 8:00 to 9:00am. 194 vehicular dropoffs are predicted. Coincides with higher rush-hour traffic, so this analysis was required for potential impacts to intersections. 4. ES dismissal is not a design condition for traffic, as it is less than MS and doesn t coincide with increased traffic on the street network.

28 In-person Site Observations of Traffic May 10: arrival & dismissal May 10: soccer field use from 3:30 to 8:00 May 10: evening band concert May 12: soccer field use from 8:30 to 5:15 September 18: (forecast rain day) September 20: arrival & dismissal September 24: back-to-school night October 4: school visitor & parking December 17: arrival (darkest week of school year)
