Traffic Impact Analysis fora 65.b1-Acre Tract in College Station, Texas
Dear Mr. Wells:
On Septe~ber 7, 1992, I submitted a you a report discussing the .referenced Traffic
Impact Analysis.: The study site consisted of 65.61 acres and three separate. tracts of land, as
shown in Attachment 1. It is my understanding that thee.northern 18.5-acre NCNB Tract is being
considered for development. It is also my understat~dvag that a new car :dealership v~i11 be
construct~e~ on the southern half of the Tract,: and that a used car dealership will be developed
on the northern half.....
The Traffic Impact Anal. ss assumed that the 18.5-acre NCNB Tract would be developed
y
as a ecial retail facili ,the worst-cage scenario. Anew car dealership and a :used car
dealership are both very low traffic generators for both p~rak-period .and ~weekd`ay conditions.
Traffic .generated by these two developments v~ould not be expected to result in any traffic
congestion alon the State Highway 6~ Erontage~ Road or conflict with the 1!~~ characteristics
g_
of existing businesses in the area.
These develo mehts would not conflict with the ea~king conditions Qi~ the Movie 12 Tract
_p P
because peak activities at car dealerships generally do not occur. during-the evening periods.
Although realis~c numbers are nat readily available for new and used ear dealerships, it can be
assumed that the raf~ic projections used for the NCNB Tract in he SeptemUer 7,1992 study are
probably four td ~tve times higher than ghat would be expected from the new and used car
dealerships.
~.
t~gain, because the proposed new and used car derships are not expected to generate
significant traffic volumes and certainly no major peakuag conditions, capacity of the interchange
of State.,. Highway b and :State. Highway 34 (Harvey Road} should not be affected significantly,
and much less that r~hat would have pccur~red i€ the NCNB Tract l'~ad been developed as a
specialty retail area.

Construction of a U-turn lane connecting the southbound west State Highway 6 Frontage
Road with the northbound east State Highway b Frontage Load will not be necessitated by the
develo menu of the new and used car dealerships;: however, construction of the UMturn lane
P
remains an excellent idea far the future.
There has been same estton as to the need for a decelera~an lane to serve the access
locations far the new and used care: dealership developments. ~ilthough decelerarion lanes are
l
generally considered a goad idea,.:. they are much more effective when right-turning traffic
volumes are high .and vehicles :behind the right-turning .vehicles have to share .the same lase as
, • f +
the t~r~ung ~arffic. The State...... ~ghway ~ Frontage Road adjacent to the new and used car
! develo meats site will eventuall rovide two northbound lanes. The number of vehicles
P YP g
into the site will be relatively low and sporadic. Heneet a deceleration lane would provide only
mammal benefits. The., con~~truction of wide curb returns far the. entrances to the new and used
car developments sites would be about as effective as deceleration lanes.
The September 7,1-:992 study report,also recommended the extension of a rear alleey from
I~arvey Road through the Movies ~2 deveiopm~nt and Ito the NCI Tract, (See Attachment
2 .) ~ This alley will provide convenient access to the south for. the benefit of College Station
residents using the facilities. Extension of the alley through the ~~1~1B Tract to the east ..State
~' Hi hwa ~ Fronta a Road is not recommended because it would encoura a throe traffic on
g Y 8
''I~~1 the alle .Besides,.. other roadwa fac` .des. provide the desirable gavel routes. Extension. of the
,, Y Y
~;? alley tbsough the new car dealership area to the used car dealership would provide convenience
~~ ~ but is not neces to reduce con estion.
sary h
~ The number of vehicles enerated b a used car dealershi is relativel low. A. southern
g Y_ P Y
~'~~~ ~ access to the used ear dealershi' would be desirable for some atrons of the dealershi • .however
P P P~
'~ traffic. congestion is not expected to occur if the alley is not extended. The decision to extend
the a11ey through the new car dealership is not a critical rarffic engineering decision.. The alley
~~ extension would be for convenience onl ,
;.~ Y
In unary, the development of the new and used ear dealerships should not.. create
~c congestion probtems along the eat State Highway 6 Frontage Roads or at the interchange
of State Highway +~ and Harvey Road. These ....types of deyelop~ent would generate far fewer
vehicles per day or during the peak-hour periods .when compared to the special retail
~ developments used to conduct he on ' ~raf~c act stud for the 6~.bl-acre develo meat
l~ P Y P
~~ _ that includes the ro osed sites for the new and used car develo meats. The. develo menfis do
~~ P p P P
not require an acceleration lane or full extension of the alle to oxide ~rear~ access from the
Y l~
south.
