out assessment of the intersection of Sind Avenue and SR 27 indicates the proposed Midilome
East Development would have an noticeable impact on the intersection operations. Although
the future traffic operations could be improved by changing the stop-sign control, particularly
with a four-way stop-sign control, stopping traffic on SR 27 is a concern for several reasons,
including high travel speeds and rtaadway functionality. Therefore, a traffic signal is ultimately
The best control for this intersection. While a traffic signal will also stop some traffic on SR 27.
with proper signing, drivers approaching the intersection on SR 27 could be alerted to the
upcoming signal so they will be prepared to stop, if needed.
!Because the MUTCD traffic signal warrants are not met by the volumes projected for the 1996
condition with the Midilome East Development, the cost for adding this signal should be shared

by bath the existing users and other future development. The proportionate cost of a S 150,000
traffic signal would be about S10,000 (6 to 7 percent) for Midilome East,

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this report is to identify any improvements that may be necessary at the
intersection of SR 27 and 32nd avenue due to the proposed Midilonte East Development. This
analysis was requested by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to
determine if the proposed Midilome East Development would trigger the need for a traffic
signal.
For the analysis, the proposed Midileme East Development, consisting of 127 single family
residential units, was assumed to be fully occupied by the fall of 1996. An existing condition,
based on 1993 traffic counts at the intersection, was examined. Background traffic volumes
were projected for 1994 ?used on ata mutual growth rate and combined with projections for the
proposed Midilome East Development, Weekday kNI and PM peak hour traffic was analyzed
for all three of these conditions.
This report contains discussions and summaries of all of the analyses performed and appendices
contain the full analysis output.

Before determining the future intersection requirements, IDEA analyzed the existing intersection
operations,
INTERSECTION AND 'ROADWAY CONFIGURATIONS
The intersection of SR 27 and 32nd Avenue is located on a state highway facility in the Spokane
County, Washington, It lies in an area which is primarily residential, with most of the
commercial development to the north. A vicinity map showing the intersection with respect to
the proposed Midilorne East site and the surrounding street system is shown in figure 1.
State Road 27
State Road 27 is a state facility running north and south through the City and County of
Spokane. It connects with some of the major commercial corridors, and it has an interchange
with Interstate 90. AT the intersection with 32nd Avenue, SR 27 is a three-lane roadway: one
moving lane in each direction with a center turn lane. The speed limit is 50 miles per hour.
32nd Avenue
'Dirty-second Avenue is one of the only continuous east/west roadways running through a
primarily residential area. It is two lanes wide, with one travel lane in each direction. At the
intersection with SR 27, 32nd Avenue is controlled by stop signs, The speed limit is 35 miles
per hour.
TRAFFIC PATMRNS
Current traffic volumes were measured in July of 1993. The weekday ANT and PM peak hour
volumes are shown in Figure 2. The weekday PM peak hour is the period of highest activity.
During both the AM and IFNI peak hours, the traffic volumes an 32nd Avenue are equal to or
higher than those on SR 27,
INTERSECTION OPERATIONS
The Level of Service fLOS9 of each lane at the intersection was calculated for each of the peak
hour conditions. The LOS for each time period is shown in Figure 2.
Level of Service Criteria
The Level of Service criteria at an unsignalized intersection in an urban area is defined in
Appendix Table A-1. This table defines the Levey of Service concept with LOS A representing.

representing a moderately congested condition is the minimum standard to be maintained in an
urban area.
Weekday AIM Peak Hour
During the weekday AIM peak hour, traffic is higher on 32nd Avenue. where it is controlled by
stop signs, than it is on SR 27. The northbound and southbound approaches on SR 27 operate
at LDS A, while the eastbound and westbound approaches on 32nd Avenue operate at LOS C.
rte. Weekday PNf Peak- Hour
Luring the weekday PM peak hour, traffic is fairly balanced on Sk 27 and 32nd Avenue.
Traffic on SR 27 would operate at LDS A, while the eastbound and westbound approaches on
32nd Avenue would both operate at LOS E.

BACKGROUND CONDITIONS
The background condir;ons were evaitiated for the year 1996 without the proposed Midliorne
East Development.
TRAFFIC VOLUMES
Background traffic volumes were estimated for the year 1996 by applying an average annual
growth rate to ail of the traffic volumes at the intersection, To calculate this annual growth rate,
_ average daily traffic volumes on SR 27 were compared for the years 1988 and 1992. During
that four-year time period, traffic on the highway grew by an average of 5 percent per year.
This growth rate was applied to both the SR 27 and 32nd Avenue traffic volumes because there
is no available information on 32nd Avenue. Tice estimated background traffic volumes for the
weekday AIM and PM peak hours are shown in Figure 3
INMRSECTION OPERATIONS
The Lavel of Service {-LOS} of each lane at the intersection was calculated for }ach of the peak
hour conditions. The LOS for each 'ime period is shown in Figure 3.
Weekday ANL I Peak Hour
During the weekday AM pear hour, operations would worsen on :32nd Avenue. While traffic
movements on SR 27 would continue to operate at LOS A. both the ea,;tbcund and westbound
approaches on 32nd Avenue would =operate at LOS D.
Weekday PM Peak Hoar
Traffic operations on 32nd Avenue wouid also worsen during the weekday PM peak hour
Traffic movements on SR 27 would operate at LOS A. On 32nd Avenue, tooth the vastbeund
and westbound approaches would oaf orate at LOS F. a condition indicating inadequate capacity
and long delays.

PROJECT IMPACTS
To evaluate the impacts of the proposed Midilome East Development. project-,generated trips
were estimated, distributed on the surrounding street system, and added to the 1996background
traffic.
DESCRIPTION OF SITE
The proposed Midilome East Development would consist of 127 single family detached
_ residences located on a 44.7 acre site. Tlie proposed development would have rwo access points
ucr off of 32nd Avenue between Madison Road and SR 27.

Trip Distribution
The trip distribution for the proposed project was based on an examination of the overall
transportation system in the area and the traffic volumes at the intersection of 32nd Avenue and
SR 27.
Most of the traffic on 32nd Avenue (75 percent) is traveling eastbound or westbound, with 20
percent turning northward and 5 percent turning southward. Volumes traveling eastbound and
westbound were split approximately 50 percent in each direction. Based on these characteristics,
the project-generated traffic distribution pattern was developed, as shown in Figure 4.
a Trip Assignment
u!~
Using the trip generation and distribution patterns, the traffic generated by the proposed
Midilome East Development was estimated for the intersection of 32nd Avenue and SR 2T The
project-generated traffic volumes are shown in Figure 5.
TOTAL TRAFFIC VOLUMES
Total traffic volumes were estimated for the vear 1996 by adding the proposed project-generated
traffic to the estimated background traffic. T'hese traffic volumes are shown in Figure 6 for the
weekday AM and PM peak hours.
INTERSECTION OPERATIONS
The bevel of Service (LOS) of each lane at the intersection was calculated for each of the peak
hour conditions. The LOS for each time period is shown in Figure 6.
Weekday Aivf Peak Hour
During the weekday AIM peak (tour, operations would worsen from the background condition.
The traffic movements on SR 27 would continue to operate at LDS A, while the eastbound
approach on 32nd Avenue would operate at LOS E. and the westbound approach would operate
at LOS D.
Weekday PP4I Peak Hour
Traffic operations on 32nd Avenue would also worsen during the weekday P:v1 peak hour. On
SR 27, traffic movements would operate at LOS A, whale bath the eastbound and westbound
approaches on 32nd Avenge would operate at LOS E.

Intersection operations are expected to worsen with the proposed Midilome East development.
On 32nd Avenue, both the eastbound and westbound approaches would operate at LOS F during
the PM peals hour. Twee options were investigated to improve the future operations of this
intersection.
IMPROVEMENT OPTION I
The first improvement option would be to change the intersection control so that the northbound
r"may
and southbound movements on SR 27 would be controlled by stop signs while the eastbound and
westbound movements can 32nd Avenue would be uncontrolled. Rased purely on a review of
traffic volumes, this intersection control is more logical because the volumes on 32nd Avenue
are generally equal to or higher than those on SR. 77.
Table 3 compares the background and total traffic operations with the stop-sign control on 32nd
Avenue, as it currently is, and with the stop-sign control on Sit 2°1.

Overall, the intersection would operate better with the ,stop-sign control on SR 27 than it would,
on 32nd Avenue. The northbound left turn would operate at LOS E during the peak hour.
However, because the number of northbound left-earning vehicle s-(Z•-is-Mica oiler
than the combined number of eastbound (319) and westbound ( h>~ Sie~r; ,coon
would operate better overall.

The primary concern with Improvement Option 1 would be stopping vehicles on 5R 27. This
state facility has a speed limit of 58 miles per hour. Although is frequently carries a lower
volume than 32nd Avenue, SR 27 is a major transportation facility connecting residential areas
to Interstate 90 and sonic major commercial areas.
IMPROVEN ENT OPTION 2
The second improverent option would be to change the intersection control so that the bath
32nd Avenue and SR 27 would be controlled by stop signs, The four-way stop-sign control
would distribute delays onto both roadways more evenly, as shown in Table 4.

With the four-way stop-sign control, all of the approaches wculd operate at LOS A or B, with

As with Improvement Option 1, a major concern with Improvement Option 2 iS stopping
vehicles on SR 27.
INIPROVEN ENT OPTION 3
The third improvement options would be to change the intersection control to a traffic signal.
Although the analysis of traffic operations with the stop-sign control indicate that the intersection
would operate at or near a failure condition during peak hours, the projected total traffic
volumes would not meet the traffic signal warrants contained in the Manual of Uniform Traffic

P. -I 1
Control Devices tM'UTCD). However, because of the concerns about stopping traffic on SR 27.
this option was analyzed as well.
For the analysis of the SR 27132nd Avenue intersection with a traffic signal, three assumptions
were made: 1) the traffic signal would be fully actuated. 2) the northbound and southbound left-
turn movements would have a protected phase, and 3) the total cycle length would be 60
seconds. The results of the analysis are shown in Figure S.

With a traffic signal. 211 traffic movements would operate at LOS 3 with the exception of the
northbound and southbound left-turn moveaneuts, which would operate at LOS C or D. (Level
of Service definitions for a signalized intersection are contained in Appendix Table A-2.)
This improvement option would also requiring stopping vehicles ❑n SR 27. However, fewer
vehicles would be stopped because many would arrive during the green-light phase of the signal
cycle.
CONCLUSIONS
To minimize delays that are expected to occur an 32nd avenue, some change in traffic control
would be necessary.

PUG CG:26P11 iF 1;'JF;H ASS-Di- POFTLP1I1-
Improvement Option Y
Changing the stop-sign control from 32nd Avenue to SR 27 would make sense based purely on
the traffic volumes. which are frequently higher on 32nd Avenue; but, supping traffic on 5R
27 is a major concern. This state facility has a speed limit of 50 miles per hour, and it provides
access to Interstate 90 and some major commercial areas.
Intersection Option 2
A four-way stop control would offer the best overall intersection operations with all movements
operating at LOS A or B. However, stopping traffic on SR 27 is also a major concern for this
alternative,
Intersection Caption 3
Although traffic operations would improve with a traffic signal at this location, the projected
traffic volumes do not meet the lv UTCD warrants for signalizing an intersection. This option
would also stop traffic on SR 27 at times, but not all of the traffic would be forced to stop for
the traffic signal. With proper signing, drivers approaching the intersection on 5R 27 could be
alerted to the upcoming signal so they will be prepared to stop.
Recommendation
Although the future traffic operations could be improved by changing the stop-sign control,
particularly with a four-way stop-sign control, stopping traffic on SR 27 is a concern for several
reasons, including high travel speeds and roadway functionality Therefore, a traffic signal is
ultimately the best control for this intersection.
Because the Iv1UTCD traffic signal warrants are not met by the volumes projected for the 1996
condition with the Miditome Bast Development, the cost for adding this signal should be shared
by both the existing users and other future development. Table 6 shows the calculation for
estimating the proportion of traffic at the intersection that would be traveling to and from the
Mid11orne East Development. Based an these calculations, the proportionate cost of a 5150.000
traffic signal would by about $10,000 (6 to 7 percent) for Midilome East.

Dear Doug,
CLARENCE E SIMPSON
1991-1987
RICHARD L. SIMPSON
CHARLES E. SIMPSON
On December 29, 1998, you called me and mentioned that the home builder at Lot 1, Block 6 of Midilome East 1'
Addition had poured his house foundation considerably higher than the adjacent curb, and feels he may have
difficulty in constructing the driveway as specified in the street and drainage plans for this plat. The drainage plans
specify that the driveway should slope downward from the curb gutter to an angle point in the driveway and then
back up towards the house. This allows stormwater in the stmt to flow into the drainage Swale. You mentioned that
as an option, the home builder was proposing to construct a culvert under the driveway This option would allow
stormwater in the swale to flow under the driveway, but would not allow water to flow into the driveway cut as
planned However, it appears that the existing curb cut at Station 9+50 of 35"` Avenue (low point) would be capable
of handling all the stormwater frorn tins basin (35'h Avenue and Woodlawn Street) in the event that the driveway to-
Lot 1, Block 6 is revised and is unable to accept stormwater.
I am sending copies of the preliminary drainage plans and calculations for the next phase of this subdivision,
Middome East 2nd Addition. I hope this information will be of help to you and the home builder in finding a solution.
Please call me if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Kevin W. McMulkin, RE

Stormwater Drainage Report: Midilome East 2nd Addition
DRAINAGE SAY:
This project is located south of 32nd Avenue and east of Pines Road. The peat proposes 37 residential lots
totaling approximately 17 acres.
The development is divided into thirteen (13) basins, A through. M. See Drainage Map for Miidilorne East 2nd
Addition. Each basin is composed of two subareas; 1) grass lawns and swales, and 2) impervious roofs,
driveways, and asphalt paved streets. Storimwater flows overland across roofs, grass lawns, and driveways and
into grass swales behind the street curbs. 5torrnwater from asphalt streets flows along the curb gutters and into
the grass swales through driveway curb cuts and curb openings located at low paints in the curb profile.
As specified in the "Guidelines for Stormwater Management", page 5-=4; where a sloping Swale is less than 100
feet long, and slopes 1% or less, the swale may be considered flat. Driveways along the road will obstruct the
swales, creating a series of individual swales that are less than 100 feet long and less than 1.0%, and 6 inches
deep between the driveways. Therefore, each Swale will be considered as flat. Stormwater will fill each Swale to
a 6 inch depth and then overflow across each driveway until the water reaches the final Swale and drywell(s).
01 The grass swales were calculated to hold the first 112" of rainfall runoff over the asphalt street areas.
Figure 2, page 6-3, of the "Guidelines for Stormwater Management", by Spokane County Engineers, was used
NJ for rainfall intensity and duration occurring at a 10-year storm frequency.
_ The Rational and Bowstring Methods were used to calculate the peak storrnwater runoff for each basin, and the
type and number of drywells needed for each basin based on the storage capacity of the Swale
In accordance with "Soil Survey, Spokane County, Washington", 1968, the soils at the site are categorized as:
Garrison very gravelly loam,... similar to 'Garrison gravelly loam, except that the surface layer is
Gm$, 5' grvery gravelly.
SxB Springdale graveily sandy loam, deep,... similar to Springdale gravelly loam, except that the depth
to gravel and coarse sand is more than 36 inches.
These types of 5ac1 are considered acceptable for drywell installation per Section 4-4.1 of "Guidelines for
■ Stormwater Management".
Stormwater Drainage Report: MiidHome East 2nd Addition
CURB INLET AND DRIVEWAY CUT CALCULATIONS:
1) For each basin, calculations have been made for the curb inlet located at a low point. Each curb inlet
located at a low point is sized to accept the flow of stormwater from the contributing pavement subbasin.
2) In some cases, additional curb inlets are required on continuous grades. For example, additional curb
inlets will intercept the stormwater on continuous grades along Vercler Drive. Runoff calculations have
been made for the pavement area in these subbasins.
3) Driveway cuts on continuous grades will intercept the stormwater flow in each pavement subbasin prior
to the curb inlet at the low point. A typical calculation has been made for a driveway cut for the
pavement in subbasin H4, since this subbasin has the largest pavement area of any subbasin in the plat, it
will have the largest peak flow of any subbasin. A driveway cut of 11.35 feet is required for this
subbasin, but is less than the typical driveway cut of 24 feet. Since, the runoff will be less in all other
pavement subbasins, driveway cuts for the other subbasins will be sufficiently wide (24 ft.) to intercept
the stormwater in the corresponding subbasins.
Driveway Opening on Continuous Grade, Example: Subbasin H4
a = 0 in. Flowline depression at opening
y = 0.08 ft. Depth of flow in normal gutter
Q = 0.21 cfs Design discharge
Qa/La = 0.0185 From Fig 16(a), page 6-39 "Spokane County Guidelines for
Stormwater Management"
L = Q/(Qa/La) = 0.21/0.0185 = 11.35 ft.

S UIN +fARY
Our assessment of the intersection of 32nd Avenue and SR 27 indicates the proposed Miclaome
East Development would have an aotiecable impact on the intersection operations. Although
the future traffic operations could be improved by changing the stop-sign control, particularly
with a four-way stop-sign control, stopping traffic on SR 27 is a concern for several reasons.
including high travel speeds and roadway functionality. Therefore. a traffic signal is ultimately
the best control for this intersection. While a traffic signal will also stop some traffic on SR 27.
with proper signing, drivers approaching the intersection on Set 27 could be alerted to the
upcoming signal so they will be prepared to stop, if receded.
Because the MUTCD traffic signal warrants are not met by the volumes projected for the 1996
~!:f Jll condition with the Midilome East Development, the cost for addiaig this signal should be shared
by both the -existing users and other future development. The proportionate cost of a S 150,000
traffic signal would be about S10,000 (6 to 7 percent) for Midilome East.
The analysis for the 1993 existing, 1996 background. 1996 total, and 1996 mitigated conditions
is shown in the table below.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this report is to identify any improvements that may be necessary at the
intersection of SR 27 and 32nd avenue due to the proposed Midilome East Development. This
analysis was requested by the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to
determine if the proposed Midilome East Development would trigger the need for a traffic
signal.
For the analysis, the proposed Midilu me East Development, consisting of 127 single family
residential units, was assumed to be fully occupied by the fall of 1996. An existing condition,
based on 1993 traffic counts at the intersection, was examined. Background traffic volumes
were projected for 1996 based on wi annual growth gate and combined with projections for the
proposed 'rl€dilome East Development, Weekday AIM and FM peak hour traffic was analyzed
for all three of these conditions.
This report contains discussions and summaries of all of the analyses performed and appendices
contain the full analysis output.

CURRE T CONDITIONS
Before determining the future intersection requirements, DEA analyzed the existing intersection
operations,
INTERSECTION AND ROADWAY CONFIGURATIONS
The intersection of SR 27 and 32nd Avenue is located on a state highway facility in the Spokane
County, Washington. It lies in an area which is primarily residential, with most of the
commercial development to the north, A vicinity reap showing the intersection with respect to
the proposed Midilome East site and the surrounding street system is shown in Figure t
\IT-L'.U
State Read 27
State Road 27 is a state facility running north and south through the City and County of
Spokane. It connects with some of the major commercial corridors, and it has all interchange
with Interstate 90. At the intersection with 32nd Avenue, SR 27 is a three-lane roadway: one
moving lane in each direction with a center turn lane. The speed limit is 50 miles per hour.
32nd Avenue
Thirty-second Avenue is one of the only continuous east/west roadways running through a
primarily residential area. It is rwo lames wide, with one travel lane in each direction. At the
intersection with SR 27, 32nd Avenue is controlled by stop signs. The speed limit is 35 miles
per hour.
TRAFF'IC PATTERNS
Current traffic volumes were measured in July of 1993. The weekday AAFI and P%4 peak hour
volumes arc shown in Figure The weekday PM peak hour is the period of highest activity
During both the AM and M peak hours, the traffic volumes on 32nd Avenue are equai to or
higher than those on SR 27.
I`-MRSECTION OPERATIONS
The Level of Service {LOS) of each 'ane at the intersection was calculated :or each of the peek
hour conditions. The LOS for each time period is shown in Figure
Level of Service Criteria
The Level of Service criteria at an unsignaiixed intersection in an urban area is defined in
