Subject: Traffic Scoping Agreement Trip Generation Analysis and Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) Analysis for the proposed 11,608 square foot U- Haul Warehouse Building located at 41458 Los Alamos Road in the City of Murrieta.
APN # 949-220-013.
Dear Mr. Cochran-Kilman:
In accordance with your authorization, we have prepared the att ached Scoping Agreement and compared the Project Trip Generation and Vehicle Miles Travelled to the City of Murrieta’s May 2020 Traffic Study Guidelines to determine if additional is req uired. Figure 1 is a vicinity map showing the location of your project and Figure 2 presents a copy of the proposed project site plan. Your project proposes the development of a 11,608 square foot warehouse building to accommodate the storage of U-Box containers for moving and stor age. (See attached U-Haul data.) The project is proposed to enhance the existing U-Haul operation. The project sites primary access is a single driveway on Los Alamos Road. The pr oposed site is located adjacent to the existing U-Haul site operation. Figure 3 presents the surrounding existing U-Haul site plan.
The first step requires the estim ation of project trip generati on and comparison of project traffic to the City of Murrieta Traffic Impact Analysis Preparation Gui delines. It is my understanding the project is a 24-hour operation with two (2) employees at ea ch of the three (3) shifts. The storage warehouse will accommodate the delivery and pick up of U-Haul Box containers for storage and/or shipping.
Trip Generation
We have estimated project trip ge neration using the Institute o f Transportation Engineers Trip Generation Manual, 10
th Edition. Table 1 summarizes the Trip Generation Rates, Land U se and Density, and Daily, AM and PM pear hour trips generated by the project. Copies of the ITE Trip Generation Rates are presented in Attachment A and include ITE Code 151 for Mini Warehouse for reference.
Review of Table 1 identifies the project will generate 21 daily , 2 AM peak hour trips and 2 PM peak hour trips. Comparison to estimate trips by employee find s the two (2) estimates are similar.

To further support the project trip generation, we evaluated th e project pickup and delivery of U- Haul containers to present a worst daily impact. The two (2) e mployees trip generation at the project site for three (3) shifts over the 24-hour operation wi ll generate twelve (12) vehicle trips (2 employees x 3 shifts x 2 trips each = 12 vehicle trips). This is less than the ITE Trip Rates.
The next step in the analysis process, we compared the trip gen eration of the project to the Transportation Impact requirements in Section 2.0 of the City o f Murrieta Traffic Impact Analysis Preparation Guide. A copy is included in Attachment A to this Letter. Review of the Section 2.0 states any project wh ich can demonstrate that it ge nerates less than 100 peak hour trips and does not require a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) that includes Level of Service (LOS) Analysis.
We then compared the project trip generation to the City of Mur rieta Traffic Study Guidelines and to determine if additional traffic analysis and/or vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT) analysis is required.
Traffic Impact Analysis
The City of Murrieta Traffic Impact Analysis Preparation Guidel ines identify that the need for additional traffic analysis is not required for projects that generate less than 100 peak hour trips.
Comparison of the Table 1 - Project Trip Generation to t he 100 peak hour threshold, find s the proposed projects 2 AM and 2 PM Peak Hour Trips are each less t han the 100 peak hour thresholds. Therefore no additional Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) is required.
Vehicle Miles Travelled (VMT)
The next step in the analysis pr ocess, we reviewed the proposed 11,608 square foot warehouse project to the City of Murrieta VMT analysis requirements. Rev iew of the City of Murrieta Table 1 – Trip Generation Rates and Calculations Summary Trip Generation Rates
