If none are available, Minagar & Associates, Inc. will coordinate with the agency to develop appropriate ITS improvements, including FHWA ITS Architecture & Systems Engineering compliance and meeting all of Caltrans Environmental requirements. On-Call Civil Engineering Services MUNICIPAL TRAFFIC ENGINEERING & SUPPORT SERVICES For 19 years, Minagar & Associates, Inc. has provided on-call professional traffic engineering and municipal support services to public agencies. In the capacity of City Traffic Engineer, our team provides consulting to the lead agency on transportation and traffic-related matters, providing services, reports, materials and other resources which are normally assigned to the Engineering Division/Section. Related services include: • Traffic Counts • Traffic Management Plans (TMP) • Engineering & Traffic Surveys (E&TS) • RFP Work Scope Development • Expert Witness Services • Civil/Structural Engineering Support of Highway Facilities • Collaborating with City, County, Caltrans staff, & local law enforcement agencies • Attending City Council, Transportation Commission, & other public meetings • Short- and long-range planning, providing recommendations, and establishing goals and budgets for traffic impact mitigation; On-Call Transportation Planning Services Our transportation planning services bridge the gap between community planning and engineering judgment and include the following, and are described in more detail below. • Traffic Impact Analysis Studies • Review Development Proposals • Demand modeling, rail/transit studies • Conduct studies to ensure the appropriate compliance with City, County and State codes, standards, regulations, etc. • EIS/EIR/EA review — compliance with design requirements and standards • Parking/Toll Road/Financial studies • Assist in preparing conditions of approval for proposed development projects/CUPs • Evaluate and provide recommendations for developer-proposed mitigation measures • Review/recommend land use applications • VMT (Vehicle Miles Traveled) Assessment & Mitigation Measures Demand Modeling Our demand modeling services include development and application of the local or regional demand model using available existing data on its roadways, transit ridership and network information, socioeconomic characteristics, vehicular volumes, average travel times, and planned/programmed projects in the near-term or horizon forecast scenarios. Traffic Forecasting - Trip Generation: Estimation of vehicular trips to be generated from the proposed project; - Trip Distribution: Includes developing a model to determine the projected paths of future trips; - Trip Assignment: Identification of the magnitude and direction of project vehicular trips; - Traffic Scenarios: Involves developing particular “target years” and “conditions” to analyze with respect to important milestones in both the construction phasing of the project and future conditions of the County, such as the choice of target years or application of any trip credits; - Environmental Clearance and Traffic Congestion Mitigation: Includes determining a project's traffic impacts and developing solutions reduce this through mitigation measures. Consultation with lead agency staff and Caltrans (if under state right-of-way) shall also be pursued as needed, 3 4 Request for Proposals for PROFESSIONAL ON-CALL TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING SERVICES CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CA 14 MINAGAR & ASSOCIATES, INC. so that reviews may be expedited and conflicts and/or misunderstandings are reduced in both the local agency review process as well as any Caltrans encroachment permit processes. Parking Studies Local municipalities generally have parking codes by which new or modified development must abide. Beyond the “black and white” parking code, however, a number of issues can arise which require studying a given site’s current parking situation, and forecasting its future parking conditions. Our typical parking study approach takes this into account and consists of the following steps: 1. Conduct on-site baseline parking accumulation surveys during peak periods of development to determine the magnitude and patterns of existing parking activity. The time frame(s) for these surveys will be verified with the lead agency at the start of each parking study project. 2. Determine peak hour and day at the site from the parking surveys. 3. Estimate projected parking demand of the proposed development based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) and/or Urban Land Institute’s (ULI) parking methodologies. 4. Compare local agency parking requirements with existing and forecasted parking demand, then determine if the site will provide an adequate parking supply under fully built-out conditions. 5. Provide recommendations and/or strategies to improve on- and/or off-site parking conditions. VMT (Vehicle Miles Traveled) Analysis - Recommendation of Mitigation Measures: Customized mitigation measures techniques shall be recommended if the subject project exceeds acceptable impact thresholds. Mitigation Planning & Impact Fee Analysis - Recommendation of Mitigation Measures: Customized mitigation measures techniques shall be recommended if the subject project exceeds acceptable impact thresholds. - Preparation of Mitigation Plans: This may include plans, schematics, or diagrams such as Signal Modification Plans (1:20 scale), Signing & Striping Plans (1:40 scale), or Parking Layouts. - Impact Fees: As required by the Agency, we will also conduct an impact fee analysis to determine the fair-share contribution of traffic improvements to be apportioned to a given developer. Because the methodology for determining impact fees can vary by city, county, etc., our staff will meet with the lead agency on the approved method for calculating impact fees. On-Call Systems Evaluation Services Minagar & Associates, Inc. provides systems evaluation services for measuring the 5 Request for Proposals for PROFESSIONAL ON-CALL TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING SERVICES CITY OF DIAMOND BAR, CA 15 MINAGAR & ASSOCIATES, INC. • Evaluation of signal re-timing/ synchronization implementations • Evaluation of ITS improvements • Before/After Studies for Transportation Improvements Our most common systems evaluations consist of performing “Before/After” studies, which measure improvements (travel time, mobility, fuel consumption, etc.) resulting from project implementation. “Before/After” Studies and Reports We usually perform two performance evaluation studies: (1) a field "floating car survey" study of field-collected traffic data, and (2) a comparison of computer-generated traffic simulation models (Synchro/SimTraffic 12.0). Both are used to identify improvements in the "before" & "after" Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs). Performance Evaluation of Regional Surface Transportation Improvements Projects (RSTI) We also provide RSTI evaluation services, which involve quantifying and evaluating the benefits and impacts of a given completed surface improvement project on the surrounding transportation network. These include studies such as: - Signal Analyses, which measure the improved signal(s) operation & performance and may use field data such as turning movement counts (TMCs), cycle lengths, signal phasings, etc., - Arterial Analyses, which measure improved traffic flow along a given arterial, and - Unsignalized Intersection Analyses.
