TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: Molly McCartney MnDOT Project Manager Haifeng Xiao, PE Tom Sohrweide, PE, PTOE DATE: November 27, 2012 RE: Trunk Highway 13 Corridor Study Update Existing and No-Build Conditions Technical Memo #2B: Traffic Forecasts and Operations Analysis SEH No. 121799 1. Introduction The Trunk Highway 13 () study corridor between the County State-Aid Highway 101 (CSAH 101) in the City of Savage and Nicollet Avenue in the City of Burnsville is a four-lane divided roadway with dedicated turn lanes at several at-grade intersections. It generally runs west-east and connects two major freeways respectively US 169 in the west and I-35W in the east in the study area. The study corridor is designated as a principal arterial in Metropolitan Council s functional classification system. The previous Corridor Study for the same corridor was completed in 2000. Since then, it has provided great guidance on the projects that were completed in recent years as well as the projects that are currently under construction or to be constructed in the coming years. Because the study was conducted over a decade ago, and economic forecast and growth trends have shifted from what was predicted in the study, a thorough review of the corridor and future needs is now necessary to ensure future investments to gain maximum return in the way of improved safety and mobility for all different travel modes that use the corridor. MnDOT, in cooperation with Scott County, Dakota County, City of Savage and City of Burnsville, has initiated the TH 13 Corridor Study Update (the Study). As one of the tasks for the Study, the existing and future No-Build traffic conditions were reviewed and evaluated. This memorandum summarizes the traffic analysis methodology and results. 2. Traffic Analysis Scope and Methodology It is noted that the /CSAH 101 Interchange Project was completed in summer 2012 and the /Quentin Avenue Signal Project was completed in fall 2012. The construction of the TH 13/CSAH 5 Interchange is scheduled to be completed in 2014. Therefore, it was determined that the base analysis year for the Study is 2014 and future analysis year is 2034 and the base No- Build conditions for the years include the completion of all those projects.

2 Page Trunk Highway 13 Corridor Study Update 11/27/2012 Technical Memo #2B: No Build Traffic Forecasts and Operations Analysis Traffic analysis under 2014 and 2014 No-Build conditions was conducted for all the intersections along between CSAH 101 and Nicollet Avenue. Figure 1a illustrates the study corridor and intersections and Figure 1b illustrates the study intersection geometry. These intersections are listed as follows (The intersections with asterisk * are side street stop controls, others are signal controls): /CSAH 101 Interchange Ramps Intersection */Dakota Avenue */Yosemite Avenue */Vernon Avenue /Quentin Avenue /Lynn Avenue */Chowen Avenue /Washburn Avenue /CSAH 5 South Ramps Intersection /CSAH 5 North Ramps Intersection CSAH 5/Williams Drive /Nicollet Avenue The 2009 A.M. and P.M. peak hour turning movements were available from MnDOT at all major signal intersections along the corridor. The 2012 peak hour turning movements were collected for the intersections between Quentin Avenue and Washburn Avenue in mid November after the completion of the /Quentin Avenue Signal Project and /CSAH 101 Interchange Project. The P.M. peak hour traffic counts show that the turning movement counts in and out of the study area are generally consistent between the two years while the through traffic volumes on haven t recovered to their 2009 levels prior to the construction of the two projects (9% lower for eastbound and 19% for westbound ). The Twin Cities Travel Demand Model (TCTD Model) was used to develop traffic forecasts for the study and the model base year is 2009, therefore the 2009 counts were used for the development of turning movement traffic forecasts. The TCTD model was refined to include more detailed roadway network and traffic analysis zones (TAZs) based on the Scott County Model (SC Model) and Dakota County Model (DC Model) to develop a subarea model (Subarea Model). The Subarea Model was used to develop daily traffic forecasts for major roadways in the study area under 2014 and 2034 No- Build conditions. The daily traffic growth factors were applied to 2009 turning movements to develop peak hour turning movement forecasts under 2014 and 2034 No-Build conditions. Synchro/SimTraffic software was used to perform traffic operations analysis. Major measures of effectiveness including delays were collected from the model runs. A Level of Service (LOS, A through F) was identified at approach, movement and intersection levels for all the intersections based on the delays and the thresholds defined in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). LOS A indicates the best traffic operation and LOS F indicates the worst. LOS D or better is generally considered acceptable.

Existing Corridor Daily Traffic Conditions Review Generally speaking, as a four-lane divided arterial with turn lanes, the Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) capacity of is 40,000 at acceptable LOS D. However, the AADT in 2010 on the study corridor major segments varied from 36,000 on east of I-35W, 57,000 on the west of I-35W and 45,000 on the east of CSAH 101. Trucks make up nearly 10 percent of all the vehicles on the study corridor, much higher than the average of 4 percent in the Twin Cities. The corridor experiences serious congestion, safety and local traffic accessibility issues. As a matter of fact, it is one of the four corridors that carry over 40,000 AADT while provide local access with at-grade intersections in the Twin Cities Principal Highway System (shown on Figure 2). Most of the corridors carrying over 40,000 AADT are freeways. Besides study corridor, Figure 2 shows the other three corridors serving high level of daily traffic with at-grade intersections are TH 7 west of I-494 (40,000-46,000 in 2010), TH 65 north of US 10 (40,000-58,000 in 2010) and TH 36 east of US 61 (43,000-51,000 in 2010). It is noted that the at-grade intersections on TH 36 corridor east of US 61 will be replaced with an interchange and realigned frontage roads. 4. 2014 and 2034 No-Build Traffic Forecasts The development of traffic forecasts for this study was based largely on the use of the most recent TCTD Model released by the Metropolitan Council in 2011 and the recently updated SC Model and DC Model. The components of those models utilize the four step modeling process which includes trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice, and trip assignment. The refinement of the TCTD Model within the study area was based on the subdivided Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) and land development data from the SC Model and DC Model. After the full TCTD model run, the trip tables for the TAZs in the study area were split and then reassigned onto the refined network. The splits for the subdivided TAZs in the Dakota County Model were directly available from its county model and the splits for subdivided TAZs in the Scott County were calculated based on the socio-economic (SE) data splits in its county model. No changes were made to the TCTD model outside of the study area. This subarea model development methodology ensures that the overall trips for each TAZ in the TCTD model remain unchanged while the distributions are consistent with two county models within the study area. The use of the TCTD Model adheres to 2006 MnDOT Memo Revised Guidelines for Twin City Travel Demand Forecasts Prepared for the Metropolitan District. The 2014 and 2034 daily and peak hour traffic forecasts were developed using the following steps: 1. The base 2009 TCTD Model was refined to create a subarea model. The Subarea Model includes more subdivided TAZs and more detailed arterial street network within the study area. 2. The daily outputs from the base 2009 subarea model were calibrated and validated based on a screen line analysis in the study area. 3. The 2030 subarea model was created based on the 2030 TCTD model and it incorporated all the refinements in the validation process of the base 2009 model as well as all the improvement projects after 2009 including /CSAH 101 and /CSAH 5

The 2030 socio-economic (SE) data for the TAZs in the study area were reviewed and the socio-economic data from the county models remained unchanged. 4. The 2014 and 2034 daily outputs for major roadways in the study area were calculated based on the 2030 model outputs assuming the same average annual growth rates from 2009 existing to 2030. 5. The calculated 2014 and 2034 daily outputs were adjusted to develop daily forecasts based on the differences between 2009 actual counts and 2009 base model outputs. 6. The daily growth factors were applied to existing turning movement counts to develop peak hour turning movement forecasts for years 2014 and 2034. Figure 3a illustrates the subarea model TAZs and corresponding TAZs in the TCTD, SC and DC models. Figure 3b summarizes the 2009 and 2030 SE data for the TAZs in the study area in the TCTD model. The SE data in the TCTD model were used to estimate the trips at its TAZ level and the trips were reallocated to subdivided TAZs in the subarea model based on the county models. Figure 4 summarizes the results from the original TCTD Model and the Subarea Model for the primary roadways across the east-west and south-north screen lines in the study area. The figure shows the total traffic volumes crossing the screen lines in the model were generally in agreement with the actual counts except for the Minnesota River bridges due to the differences in the original TCTD Model. The calibration of the Minnesota River bridge screen requires more thorough investigation on the original TCTD model, thus was not conducted in this study. Nevertheless, the differences for arterials are less than 10% at screen line level. The calibration results show that the Subarea Model can be a good tool for the development of daily forecasts on the arterial corridors for this study. Figure 5 illustrates the existing and forecasted 2014 and 2034 AADTs. Figure 6 illustrates the existing peak hour turning movements from year 2009. Figure 7 illustrates the 2014 No-Build peak hour turning movements. Figure 8 illustrates the 2034 No-Build peak hour turning movements.

Table 1 below summarizes the final analysis results at approach and intersection level. The analysis results at movement level are attached in the appendix in Figures 9a & 10b (2014 No-Build AM & PM) and Figures 10a & 10b (2034 No- Build AM & PM). The results show that all study intersections will operate at unacceptable LOS E or worse either at overall intersection level or some approach level except the /CSAH 101 ramp intersection and intersections on CSAH 5 during A.M. and P.M. peak hours under 2014 & 2034 No-Build conditions. The recently completed /CSAH 101 interchange and to-be completed /CSAH 5 interchange increase the capacity and improve the traffic operations at those locations. It is noted that the intersection at /Nicollet Avenue will operate at overall unacceptable LOS E or F during peak hours for both years. The figures in the appendix (Figures 9a&9b, 10a&10b) show that there are serious operational problems on side streets and left turns from at all those at-grade intersections along the study corridor..
