39. Department of Transportation, Transportation Planning Requirement:
A. Streetscape Modifications. Implement mandatory measures identified in SCA #77 including improving transit access and safety through sidewalk/crosswalk enhancements, lighting, bus shelter improvements, and other features. The project sponsor will continue to coordinate with the City to explore implementation of mandatory measures identified in SCA #77 as documented in the December 2020 “Non CEQA Elements” Draft Memorandumn Appendix C of the FEIR, including:
a. Traffic signals at the four signalized study intersections along the Broadway corridor should be interconnected to provide coordination in the southbound direction during the morning peak period and in the northbound direction during the evening peak period.
b. Construct a raised median on Broadway between College Avenue and Broadway Terrance. Left turns into and out of Clifton Street at the intersection of Broadway/Clifton Street would be prohibited with this installation. On-street parking on the east side of Broadway between College Avenue and Clifton Street should be removed and converted to additional queue storage for the northbound right turn pocket at the intersection of Broadway/Broadway Terrace and into the project site. Paint “KEEP CLEAR” pavement markings at the intersection of Broadway/Clifton Street in the right-turn pocket.
c. Increase the all red clearance interval at the intersections of Broadway/ College Avenue and Broadway/ 51st Street to provide greater time separation between opposing movements and to clear the intersection of vehicles between signal phases.
d. Prohibit left turns at the Broadway/ Clifton Street intersection to prevent violation of automobile right of way and broadside collisions. e. Install red-light indicator lights or red-light cameras at the intersections of Broadway/ College Avenue and Broadway/ 51st Street to enhance visibility of red lights and reduce the frequency of crashes resulting from drivers disobeying traffic signals.
f. The final site plan should retain three driveways and designate curb space for loading for passenger loading and/or commercial vehicles along the internal loop formed by the easternmost and center project driveways. As shown on the conceptual site plan, the delineation of inbound and outbound movements from the garage versus pick-up and drop-off activity is not well defined. This area should be designed and defined to adequately segregate garage movements from pick-up and drop off activities. The westernmost driveway as shown is located approximately 85 feet west of Broadway. Queuing calculations, presented in a

previous section of this report, find that this location is adequately spaced, provided that certain mitigation measures are provided (turn restrictions and signal interconnect).
g. Along the project frontage, curb extensions should be constructed at the intersection of Broadway/Clifton Street and Broadway/College Avenue. h. Additional transit amenities are required at the bus stop located along the project frontage, including the construction of a bus boarding island, bus shelter, and concrete bus pad at the intersection of Broadway/College Avenue. i. The final site plan should ensure adequate clearance and roadway widths are provided for emergency vehicles access throughout the project site.
B. Revise the TDM Plan to include the following information:
a. The existing Class II bike lane would remain continuous, floating between two through-lanes and one NBRT lane. Add FG300 bollard posts on either side of the bike lane between the bike lane and through lane/RT pocket to discourage weaving across bike lane and to protect this floating bike through movement. b. Provide calculations for these estimates in Table 3 Proposed TDM Plan and Estimated Vehicle Trip Reduction.
c. Show the total number of peak trips to provide context for the 20 and 20.2% VMT reduction figures.
