The existing middle school has an enrollment of 947 students for the current 2018-19 academic year MCPS has a project which will relocate Tilden Middle School to a site located at the Tilden Lane/Marclff Road intersection. Once the existing middle schoo! has been relocated the site wil be cleared and a new 2,700 student high schoo! will be constructed. Initially the ‘school will be used as a holding school for the Northwood High School while that existing school undergoes @ major renovation. Once the Northwood High School project has been completed a decision willbe made regarding the future use of the Woodward High Schoo! site It could be used as a new high school to relieve crowding at nearby high schools or it could be used as a county wide magnet school. In any event, the school will have a core capacity of approximately 2,700 students. The school site is shown on Exhibit 1. Street Tratfic Studies, Ltd. has been retained to undertake the required traffic study under the provisions of the Local Area Transportation Review and Transportation Policy Area Review Guidelines for a site generating more than 60 peak hour person trips. The purpose of the traffic study is to evaluate the adequacy of the transportation {acltes that are available to serve the site in accordance with the procedures outlined in the Local Area Transportation Review and Transportation Policy Area Review Guidelines as ‘adopted by the Planning Board. Current trafic data was acquired at seven (7) intersections in the vicinity ofthe site including the school driveways. The North Bethesda policy area is within the Orange category and consequently the Highway Capacity Manual and Critical Lane Volume proaalures were used (o evaluate intersection levels of service, The Traffic Study Scope of Work Agreement is contained in Appendix A. Since this project is being built solely as a public facility by the Montgomery County ‘government its not required to pay a transportation impact tax EXHIBIT 1 SITE LOCATION EXISTING CONDITIONS Roadway System Elements ‘The existing Tilden Middle School site is located along in the east side of MD 187 just north of Tuckerman Lane. The site is currently served by two (2) access points on MD 187. The north access is restricted to exit only and is controlled with a traffic signal. The south ‘access isa full movement access controlled with a STOP sign and while outbound movements at this access are permitted; they are restricted to right turns only between the hours of 7:15 to 8:15 AM and 2:30 to 3:30 PM, With the construction of the high school itis anticipated that the north access will remain signalized; although it will be moved south to provide more stacking area for the southbound left tun movement. This access will serve as the main access/egress to the site, The south access will serve the bus loop and will be unsignalized, ‘Additionally aright infight out access Is proposed near the northern boundary of the school ‘The approach lanes and traffic controls atthe existing intersections analyzed as the basis for this study are shown in Exhibit 2. (Old Georgetown Road (MD 187) is a six ane divided major highway in the vicinity of the site, Ithas a posted speed limit of 40 MPH and its classified as a Major Highway. Five (5) foot wide concrete sidewalks are provided along both sides of MD 187, Manual tuning movement traffic counts were conducted by Street Traffic Studies, Ltd in February 2019 at the intersections that were agreed upon with staff. The counts were ‘conducted between 6:30 AM and 9:30 AM in the morning and between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM in the evening. The summarized data for these intersections are included in Appendix B.

The existing pedestrian and bicycle peak hour volumes are shown in Exhibits 4 anu 5, ‘The existing peak hour trafic volumes shown in Exhibit 3 were subjected to a capacity analysis procedure using the Highway Capacity Manual technique and the Critical Lane \Volume technique as desoribed in M.NCPPC's LATR/TPAR Guidelines. The results of the: analysis are set forth in Tables | and 2 and the worksheets and signal timing sheets from which they are derived are in Appendix C.

Traffic Circulation and Queuing Existing operations at the Tiiden Middle School operate smoothly and efficiently with the exception of an approximately 15 minute time frame during the morning arrival and afternoon dismissal periods. The proposed construction will relocate the existing signalized egress point further south to increase the separation between this signal and the existing signal at the Poindexter Lane-Edson Lane intersection. The southern access wil primarily serve the school bus loop ‘and will remain unsignalized. Additionally a right in/right out access is proposed near the northern boundary of the school. The Proposed Concept Plan is shown in Exhibit 6 Pa = & Zz a 3 EXHIBIT 6 io PROPOSED CONCEPT PLAN BACKGROUND TRAFFIC ANALYSIS As indicated in the correspondence between the consultant and the staff at M-NCPPC included in Appendix D, there are 13 background developments in the general vicinity of the site that needed to be analyzed as a part of this study. The details regarding each of these developments are discussed below. Planned Developments In accordance with procedures established by the LATR guidelines, the analysis of the traffic impact of proposed development must include trafic projections for other planned developments in the "vicinity" of the site.

MCPS has a project which will relocate Tikden Middle School to a site located at the Tilden Lane/Marclif Road intersection, Once the existing middle schoo! has been relocated the site willbe cleared and a new 2,700 student high school will be constructed. Initially the ‘school will be used as a holding school for the Northwood High School while that existing ‘school undergoes a major renovation. Once the Northwood High School project has been ‘completed a decision willbe made regarding the future use of the Woodward High School site. It could be used as a new high school to relieve crowding at nearby high schools or it could be used as a county wide magnet school. In any event, the schoo! will have a core capacity ‘of approximately 2,700 students. ‘The existing Tilden Middle Schoo! site is located along in the eastside of MD 187 just north of Tuckerman Lane. The site is currently served by two (2) access points on MD 187. ‘The north access is restricted to exit only and Is controlled with a trafic signal. The south ‘access serves inbound movements; however outbound movements are also allowed. With the construction of the high schoo! itis anticipated that the north access will remain signalized although it wil be moved south to provide more stacking area for the southbound left turn ‘movement. This access willserve as the main acoesslegress to the site. The south access will ‘serve the bus loop and willbe unsignalized, An additional right invright out access is proposed onto MD 187 near the northem boundary of the site. The proposed lane use at the school access points are shown in Exhibit 9.

Allofthe remaining critical intersections are projected to operate within acceptable levels with the adcition ofthe trips generated by the proposed high school, ‘Additional analyses were performed to determine if an improvement could be made at the MD 187/Tuckerman Lane intersection which would reduce the projected delay to acceptable levels, To provide an acceptable level of delay, the following improvements would bbe required, The east leg of Tuckerman Lane would need to be remarked to provide two exclusive left turn lanes, a shared left turvthru lane, an exclusive thru lane and an exclusive right turn lane. Additionally, a right tum overlap phase would need to be installed on the northbound right turn lane on MD 187, With these changes the MD 187/Tuckerman Lane intersection would operate at acceptable levels during the moming peak hour. Capacity ‘analyses were performed atthe intersection showing the impacts ofthese improvements and the results are shown in Tables 11 and 12, TABLE 11 HOM CAPACITY ANALYSES RESULTS (TOTAL PEAK HOUR VOLUMES with Improvements) MORNING AFTERNOON CONGESTION INTERSECTION PEAKHOUR PEAKHOUR STANDARD MD 187 @ Tuckerman La (78.2) (39.7) 71 sechveh (0000) - (Delay in seciveh) an TABLE 12 CLV CAPACITY ANALYSES RESULTS (TOTAL PEAK HOUR VOLUMES with Improvements) MORNING AFTERNOON CONGESTION INTERSECTION PEAKHOUR — PEAKHOUR STANDARD. MD 187 @ Tuckerman La (1566) (ite) 1950 (0000) - (Critical Lane Volume) ‘AutoTum analyses were performed atthe intersection to determine ifthe available width along southbound MD 187 would accommodate the triple left turn movement. The analyses: ‘show that while three (3) SU 30 vehicles could negotiate the tum simultaneously, three (3) WB. 50 vehicles could not simultaneously make the tur. While the improvement does reduce the projected delay to acceptable levels itis not ‘a significant reduction. In addition to this lane use change the MSHA requested that ‘consideration be given to changing the lane use on the eastbound Tuckerman Lane approach 10 provide for an exclusive leftturn lane a shared left turnfhru lane, an exclusive thru lane and ‘an exclusive right turn lane, This lane use change would result in an additional reduction in intersection delay and result in a CLV of less than 1850. It would also result in an approximately 15 foot offset for eastbound thru vehicles as they travel across MD 187, This improvement was discussed internally with the M-NCPPC and MCDOT staff and it was determined that this was not a desirable result. Since the proposed lane use change on the westbound approach, satisfies the delay threshold for this policy area and this is the critical measure of adequacy; the MSHA proposed lane use change for eastbound Tuckerman Lane motorists was not considered further. ‘The capacity worksheets for the individual intersections are contained in Appendix G, the AutoTurn analyses and a pavement marking plan are contained in Appendix H. ‘Queuing Analyses ‘A queuing analyses was performed atthe school access points along MD 187 to insure that sulicient storage is provided forthe southbound lefttun movements. Atthe MD 187/Main ‘Access intersection the 412 lefttumns projected under total traffic conditions would require 402 feet of storage ((412 x 100/3600) x 1.4 x 25 = 402) assuming the same 100 second cycle length that currently operates atthe signalized intersection.

The level of traffic stress (LTS) for bicyclists along MD 187 in the vicinity and along Edson Lane is Red or high stress level. The County Master Plan {for Bikes addresses this stress level via shared roadway routes along Luxmanor Road and ‘separated bikeways along the east side of MD 187 and along Edson Lane. Given the nature of MD 187 as a Major Highway in this area, this is an appropriate plan and MCPS ‘supports this. MCPS will construct the bikeway across the frontage of the site along MD 187. ‘Transit System Adequacy For traditional land uses the number of transit trips would be more than the threshold of 50 a quantitative transit analysis would be required. However since the proposed use is a public school and the majority of the users would be eligible for free public transit (school buses) it was determined that a more appropriate measure of this sites transit impact should be tied to staff levels rather than the total number of trips generated by the sit. The school will employ 212 teachers/staff. Nearly all of these employees willbe on- site before the morning peak hour (7:30 to 8:30 AM) and will remain on-site until after the ‘evening peak hour (2:15 to 9:15 PM). However, to present a very conservative projection of ransitimpacts, itwas assumed that 30% of the staff would arrive during the peak hours. ‘This would translate to 64 staff members per peak hour. Once again ifall ofthese 64 staff ‘members were converted to person trips, the 9.4% transit rte for this policy area would ‘equate to 6 transit trips which is far below the 50 trp threshold for a quantitative transit analyses. ‘The nearest bus stops tothe site are located along the east side of MD 187 at the northem property boundary and on the west side of MD 187 opposite of the school. The ‘stops serve Ride On route 28. The information for Ride On route 26 is enclosed in Appendix L. a CONCLUSIONS ‘A traffic impact study was prepared in accordance with the guidelines published by M.NCPPG for Mandatory Referrals, for projects undertaken by public agencies. The proposed conversion of the Tilden Middle School to the Woodward High School falls within the parameters of these guidelines. After collecting current trafic count data at 7 intersections including the existing access points to the Tikden Middle School, it was determined that under existing traffic volumes all of the intersections that were analyzed as part of the LATR study operate Within the Congestion Standard for the North Bethesda Policy Area of 71 seconds of vehicle delay or less during the peak hours of schoo! traffic. ‘The analysis then proceeded to generate trips for planned developments and the trips generated by the conversion of the middle school toa high school. The results of the analyses demonstrate, as shown in Tables 9 and 10, that ll ofthe crtical intersections are projected to continue to operate within the 71 second threshold permitted by the Congestion Standard for the Policy Area during the peak hours, with the exception of the MD 187/Tuckerman Lane intersection. Improvements were identified at the MD 187/Tuckerman Lane intersection which if installed would reduce the projected delay to acceptable levels during the morning peak hour. This improvement if implemented would be funded through MCDOT CIP fund P509036. ‘As required by the LATR/TPAR Guidelines, pedestrian facilities in the area were also evaluated. The area in which the school is located is a mature neighborhood with continuous sidewalks along the majority of the area roadways to encourage pedestrian traffic to the school. The signalized intersections in the study area are equipped with push- button controlled pedestrian signals to cross the major roadways. There were some ADA deficient intersections within a 500 foot radius of the school boundary and these will be ‘addressed with the existing CIP fund designed to fund improvements associated with public schools, APPENDIX A. ‘TRAFFIC STUDY SCOPE OF WORK AGREEMENT Local Area Transportation Review TRANSPORTATION IMPACT STUDY SCOPE OF WORK AGREEMENT Contact Information ‘ike Nalepa ‘Transportation Consultant | Steet Traffe Studies (Gop, ota vane, nal, | mnalgadsetv Sa phan umber) $10 580 5500, Name of Applicant / ‘Montgomery County Public Schools - Developer Project Information Include Tables/6raphies, AS Needed Project Name : Project Name | wocdwara High Schoo ct Location — rofect Lacation 1211 0 Gert Rea, Recle, MO 20652 | Policy Area(s) ' aster Plan(s)/ |fabsivon staging poy map) _| No" Bethesda Sector Plan Area(s) a 1 Preliminary Plan | ite Plan_| sketch/Concept/ere- | C1 Amendment Preliminary (Optonal) Application Type(s) = Pecan ese | Local Map | (1 APF at Building wines: (formery specal eet8on) | amendment. | Permit —MR__ Project Description & Previous Approvals {roposed and ses, zoning, no. ‘of unt, square Teton, onstruction phen, pie sopra apropos, existing tes, ste operon yes ul, Stans of Acct Pub Facies [s@r] other elevate) 1.Site Access Tes antkipated thatthe exiting signal controlled access tothe Tiden Middle Schoo will be (cegsn scamloatent, | aed oe souhannon se for Wonaors gh Scoa Obwr ess, pers stct, |crongeibe erie tu the ate as cto eee ccex cota oa ities ort cramen, pete tans (Stet) anspor Trae SR Generates 50 or more total weekday peak hou person tps (vehicular, transt, TD Transportation Study Exemption Statement Generates 49 or fewer total weckdoy peak ‘accoptedapplieation) 2.Transportation ANAIYSIS | Se, and/or pedestrian) win no| | Hour person tips (vehi, trans, bee, Requirement ‘edoctons other than a ced for existing | and/or pesto) wth no eduction other Gerelopments over 1 years, ADIs | than a eed for existing developments over fuse ofthe Whe int and Wit Ook_| 12 yeas ol, O& within Whe int and Wie policy Aes, Filout remade of tis | Oak Poy Ares.
