City staff will also provide DKS with collision data for crashes occurring between July 2024 (after project implementation) and July 2025.
DKS will have National Data Services (NDS) collect volume data at locations and in a manner consistent with the prior analysis.

In addition to the 24-hour counts, NDS will collect AM (7-9am) and PM (4-6pm) intersection turning movement counts at five locations at the same time that the hose counts are being conducted in August, September, and October. These counts will include pedestrian and bicyclist activity. The following five locations will be counted:

This includes crash trend analysis, summary speed statistics and comparison with prior data collection, trends in daily and peak period travel patterns, and intersection delay analysis at the intersection of Pine Avenue and Hollister Avenue
(c) Task 3: Documentation
DKS will document the findings of analysis to support a staff report to council on the current operations of Hollister Avenue in Old Town. This will include a draft memorandum for review by City staff with one round of comments before final submittal.

EXHIBIT A-1
SCOPE OF WORK
The following scope of service is to provide a one year update on the current operations of Hollister Avenue from Fairview Avenue to Kellogg Avenue. The intent of this study is to provide City staff with information necessary to update the Council on the impacts that the interim striping plan has had on the local community in relation to the project goals of increasing parking spaces, reducing traffic speeds, reducing collisions, improving bike and pedestrian conditions, and maintaining traffic flow. This will be the second update on this project with the previous update having been presented in March 2025 based on data collected in December 2024 and January 2025.
Task 1: Data Collection
The first task of this project will be to collect data which reflects traffic conditions since January of 2025. Based on the previous staff report data needs to be compiled related to parking occupancy, collisions, speeds, and traffic volumes. Based on conversations with City staff, the City will collect data related to parking occupancy and travel speeds on Hollister Avenue and provide this data to DKS for processing. City staff will also provide DKS with collision data for crashes occurring between July 2024 (after project implementation) and July 2025.
DKS will have National Data Services (NDS) collect volume data at locations and in a manner consistent with the prior analysis. This includes collecting one day 24-hour hose counts at the following five locations for one day each in August, September, and October. These counts will be collected mid-week (Tuesday-Thursday) on non-holiday weeks.
• Hollister Avenue between Magnolia Avenue and Pine Avenue • Gaviota Street between Magnolia Avenue and Pine Avenue • Mandarin Drive between Magnolia Avenue and Pine Avenue • Armitos Drive between Cardinal Avenue and Kinman Avenue • Gato Avenue between Cardinal Avenue and Kinman Avenue
In addition to the 24-hour counts, NDS will collect AM (7-9am) and PM (4-6pm) intersection turning movement counts at five locations at the same time that the hose counts are being conducted in August, September, and October. These counts will include pedestrian and bicyclist activity. The following five locations will be counted:
• Hollister Avenue and Pine Avenue
• Pine Avenue and Gaviota Street
• Pine Avenue and Mandarin Avenue
• Kinman Avenue and Armitos Avenue
• Kinman Avenue and Gato Avenue
Task 2: Data Analysis
After compiling the data in Task 1, DKS will conduct data trend analysis relevant to understanding if the goals of the project are being met. This includes crash trend analysis, summary speed statistics and comparison with prior data collection, trends in daily and peak period travel patterns, and intersection delay analysis at the intersection of Pine Avenue and Hollister Avenue.
