RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVAL OF TASK ORDER NO. 12 WITH
CRANE TRANSPORTATION GROUP FOR THE
PREPARATION OF THE 2024 TRAFFIC
MONITORING PROGRAM AND ANALYSIS AND
RELATED BUDGET AMENDMENT
Adopt Resolution to Approve Task Order No. 12
with Crane Transportation Group for the
Preparation of the 2024 Traffic Monitoring
Program and Analysis, Pursuant to Master
Consulting Agreement dated June 11, 2018
and Related Budget Amendment
SUMMARY:
Development agreements and Environmental Impact Reports for development projects require that each developer participate and fund the Traffic Monitoring Program ( TMP). The TMP monitors roadway conditions, projects future roadway congestion, and schedules roadway improvements to keep traffic flow at an acceptable level. On June 11, 2018, City Council approved a Master Professional Services Consulting Agreement with Crane Transportation Group ( CTG) for traffic analysis.
Staff recommends City Council approve Task Order No. 12 in the amount of $190, 965 with CTG, to provide the 2024 Traffic Monitoring Program and evaluate citywide 2024, 2026, and 2028 projected traffic conditions. The services provided by CTG will be fully funded by developers. Staff requests City Council also approve a budget amendment to fund ( 2020) Land Development Engineering.
BACKGROUND:
Development agreements and Environmental Impact Reports for development projects require that each developer participate and fund the TMP. The TMP monitors roadway conditions, projects future roadway congestion, and schedules roadway improvements to keep traffic flow at an acceptable level.
The TMP establishes performance standards and details how operations of the roadway system are to be monitored as well as how to schedule improvements to avoid the roadway system from falling below the acceptable standards of operation.
Developers are required to fund the TMP on a continuing basis until all required traffic improvements have been completed or the development is complete.

APPROVAL OF TASK ORDER NO. 12 WITH CRANE TRANSPORTATION GROUP FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE 2024 TRAFFIC MONITORING PROGRAM AND
ANALYSIS AND RELATED BUDGET AMENDMENT
The last TMP was prepared in 2022, and due to the significant increase in development, the TMP needs to be updated. Below is an overview of the proposed services by CTG for the preparation of the 2024 Traffic Monitoring Program and Analysis:
Citywide Traffic Count Operations - This includes traffic counts and turning movements at the City' s major intersections. It also includes counts on major roadway segments including freeway interchanges. These are required to establish a baseline for all automotive and truck activities. The traffic counts support the preparation of the TMP as well as the General Plan Circulation Element update and supporting General Plan Environmental Impact Report.
Year 2024 Citywide Traffic Monitoring Program Study - The TMP analyzes and documents traffic impacts under existing conditions and projects future traffic conditions while taking into consideration proposed/ planned land use developments and planned circulation system improvements. With this information, CTG will identify significant impacts and mitigations to prevent any traffic congestion above the acceptable levels.

III. DATA ANALYSIS & PRESENTATION
A. ANALYSIS LOCATIONS
Intersection analysis locations are presented in Section II - B and do not include those intersections marked with an asterisk. All intersections marked with an asterisk are locations where traffic count information will only be used to optimize traffic flow projections.
B. INTERSECTION PEAK HOUR TURN MOVEMENT COUNTS
An AM and PM commute peak hour set of turn movement counts will be developed for all analysis intersections. While it is very probable that the specific peak traffic hours during the morning and afternoon commute periods will vary by corridor and/ or by individual intersections, this evaluation will result in in one set of AM and PM peak hour turn movement counts that reflect peak traffic activity at most or all intersections that will be used as the basis for all existing commute peak hour operational analysis. In addition, the City Staff has also requested evaluation of the Lathrop High School AM and PM peak traffic hours on the streets providing access to High School. These peak hours will also be determined and a separate system of counts developed presenting peak High School traffic times.
C. FREEWAY OFF -RAMP QUEUING
Queuing on the 1- 5 off -ramps at Roth Road, Lathrop Road and Louise Avenue/ River Islands Parkway will be presented for the AM and PM commute peak traffic hours as well as other hours that may have longer queues.
D. DAILY/ HOURLY DIRECTIONAL COUNTS ON RIVER ISLANDS
3 -ACCESS ROUTES
Three days of 24 -hour counts will be presented for River Islands Parkway at its crossing of the San Joaquin River, for Stewart Road just west of Manthey Road and for Paradise Road at the west end of River Islands.
These counts will be used to determine regional roadway network distribution patterns for new River Islands development.

E. FREEWAY VOLUMES
Caltrans freeway volumes ( auto & truck) will be presented for the AM and PM commute peak hours on all three freeways within Lathrop for the same day as the intersection counts.
F. PRESENTATION
Weekday AM and PM peak hour turn movement volumes will be presented on figures.
Freeway directional volumes for the survey day will be presented on figures.
Roadway directional hourly volumes at the entrances to River Islands ( for the three survey days) will be presented in tabular form. 1-5 off -ramp queues will be presented on figures.
IV. EVALUATION PROCEDURES
A. OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
The following operations information will be determined for both existing ( Fall 2024) as well as 2026 & 2028 analysis horizons:
Level of Service and delay using the Synchro- 12software program -- all intersections in Section II - B.
95th percentile off -ramp vehicle queuing projections using the Synchro- 12 software: 1-5 interchanges with Roth Road/ Lathrop Road/ Louise Avenue - River Islands Parkway
Peak hour Caltrans signal warrant analysis.
V. EXISTING CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
A. IDENTIFY ALL LOCATIONS WITH EXISTING ( FALL 2024)
UNACCEPTABLE OPERATION & REQUIRED IMPROVEMENTS
All locations with unacceptable intersection Level of Service, unacceptable 95th percentile queuing and unsignalized intersections meeting signal warrant criteria will be identified.
Improvements will be recommended to mitigate all unacceptable operation for those locations not programmed for improvement by 2026.

VI. FUTURE CONDITIONS ANALYSIS
A. HORIZON YEARS
2026
2028
B. PROPOSED LAND USE DEVELOPMENT
Lathrop City Staff will provide detailed information regarding all development in the cities of Lathrop, Manteca and Tracy as well as San Joaquin County that should be included in the traffic projections for the two future years. This will also include any new schools or expected changes in the number of students at existing schools as well as increased activity in existing industrial or warehousing/ distribution facilities.
One land use scenario will be studied for each of the two horizon years. City Staff will obtain traffic studies from Manteca, Tracy and San Joaquin County for projects in these jurisdictions potentially contributing a significant amount of traffic to the Lathrop roadway system.
C. PLANNED CIRCULATION SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS
Lathrop City Staff will provide a list of any circulation system improvements to be considered in place for each horizon year, including any additional lanes to be provided along local freeways.
D. FUTURE PROJECT TRIP GENERATION
Peak hour trip generation projections for all proposed land uses within Lathrop will be developed using trip rates from the Institute of Transportation Engineers ( ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition (2021), or from traffic studies conducted for specific developments. Please note that the existing significant amount of construction worker traffic associated with the River Islands development will be assumed on the circulation system in 2026 and 2028.
Trip generation from all developments within Manteca, Tracy and San Joaquin County will be obtained from studies conducted for these proposed developments. Lathrop City Staff will be required to obtain copies of these studies. If no studies are available, trip generation and distribution projections will be developed using the most recent ITE trip generation rates. Projections for small non -Lathrop developments will be completed as part of the proposed Scope. Projections for larger developments will be considered extra work.
E. NON -PROJECT TRAFFIC REDISTRIBUTION DUE TO CIRCULATION
SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS
AM & PM peak commute hour volumes will be redistributed based upon new roadways and interchange improvements projected to be in operation by City Staff for each horizon year.

CRANE TRANSPORTATION GROUP
CITY OF LATHROP
2024 TMP Proposal
September 11, 2024
F. FUTURE PROJECT TRIP DISTRIBUTION
Traffic from new development within Lathrop will be distributed to the local roadway network based upon distribution patterns from the existing counts as well as input from the new Lathrop Traffic Model. Traffic distribution patterns will be obtained from a variety of Traffic Analysis Zones ( TAZs) that were developed by Fehr & Peers ( F&P) as part of the City' srecent General Plan Update Year 2040 traffic projections. TAZs selected reflect a variety of land uses at locations throughout the City. The cost for obtaining this data is included in the base Scope, as F&P will be a subconsultant to Crane Transportation Group. Trip distribution will take into account all new roadways and interchanges projected to be in operation by each horizon year. Projections for small non -Lathrop developments will be completed as part of the proposed Scope. Projections for larger developments outside Lathrop without traffic studies will be considered extra work.
Traffic from new development in Manteca, Tracy or San Joaquin County without a traffic study will be distributed to the Lathrop street network based upon data from available studies in these jurisdictions.
G. FUTURE TRAFFIC PROJECTIONS
Year 2026 and 2028 AM and PM peak hour turn movement increments at each analysis intersection due to new development will be determined for each specific plan area in the City ( Central Lathrop, Mossdale, River Islands, South Lathrop, remainder of City) as well as for City of Manteca, City of Tracy and San Joaquin County developments.
Total volume increments will then be determined for each horizon year.
Please note that operating conditions during Lathrop High School peak traffic times will only be evaluated for " Existing" conditions.
H. FUTURE OPERATIONS ANALYSIS
Year 2026 AM and PM peak hour Level of Service will be determined at all analysis intersections listed in Section III -A, while 95th percentile queuing will be determined for those off -ramps listed in Scope item III -C. Peak hour signal warrant evaluation will also be conducted at all unsignalized intersections.
Year 2028 AM and PM peak hour Level of Service will be determined at all analysis intersections listed in Section III -A, while 95th percentile queuing will be determined for those off -ramps listed in Scope item I II - C. Peak hour signal warrant evaluation will also be conducted at all unsignalized intersections.

VII. SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS
YEAR 2026 A determination will be made of all locations projected to experience unacceptable peak hour Level of Service or 95th percentile queuing. Unsignalized intersections with peak hour volumes above Caltrans peak hour Warrant criteria levels will also be listed. The percent contribution in net new traffic from all Specific Plan areas in the City will be determined at all locations with unacceptable operation.
YEAR 2028 A determination will be made of all locations projected to experience unacceptable peak hour Level of Service or 95th percentile queuing. Unsignalized intersections with peak hour volumes above Caltrans peak hour Warrant criteria levels will also be listed. The percent contribution in net new traffic from all Specific Plan areas in the City will be determined at all locations with unacceptable operation.
VIII. IMPROVEMENTS
YEAR 2026 Improvements will be recommended to bring all unacceptable peak hour Level of Service or queuing back to acceptable operation as well as an all -way stop or signal for all unsignalized intersections with volumes exceeding signal warrant criteria. Measures will be discussed with City Public Works staff to assure that only mitigations are recommended that can realistically be constructed.
YEAR 2028 Improvements will be recommended to bring all unacceptable peak hour Level of Service or queuing back to acceptable operation as well as an all -way stop or signal for all unsignalized intersections with volumes exceeding signal warrant criteria.
