Traffic & Pedestrian Study Offsite Vehicular Improvements Accepted & Approved Recommendations: • Modify pavement markings on Concord Street approaching Mills Avenue to provide a left/through lane and a dedicated right turn lane. The existing pavement is approximately 30 feet wide, which allows three 10’ lanes (2 eastbound approach lanes and 1 westbound departure lane). • Reduce the available width for through traffic on Concord Street by restriping the road to provide a center turn lane or a westbound left turn lane approaching the parent dropoff/pick-up loop. This lane will help store queuing vehicles on Concord Street without blocking the through movements. The introduction of a third lane on Concord will also help reduce undesirable drop-offs/pick-ups in the right-of-way near the school entrance. • Restore bidirectional flow on Hyer Avenue to better distribute and diffuse traffic leaving the school during peak operations. Allowing bi-directional flow on the Hyer Avenue allows traffic exiting the school access to the signal at Mt Vernon Street and Mills Avenue. Traffic/Pedestrian 6
Traffic & Pedestrian Study Offsite Pedestrian Improvements Accepted & Approved Recommendations: • Mills Avenue & Concord Street – ADA compliant pedestrian ramp at the southwest corner, crosswalks marked, & truncated domes to assist visually impaired pedestrians. • Mills Avenue & Mt Vernon Street – Truncated domes to assist visually impaired pedestrians. • Thornton Avenue & Concord Street – A crossing is not necessary at this location based on the proposed school layout. Truncated domes to assist visually impaired pedestrians. • Hyer Avenue & Concord Street – Truncated domes to assist visually impaired pedestrians. • Hyer Avenue & Mt Vernon Street – Ramps on the northwest and northeast quadrants & truncated domes to assist visually impaired pedestrians.

Traffic & Pedestrian Study Onsite Improvements The Accepted & Approved Plan Provides: • The bus lane and parent drop-off/pick-up loop are separated in accordance with OCPS policy and recommended best practices to minimize risk and friction at the school. • The proposed site plan separates staff access from parent access, which further enhances efficient operations during the peaks. • The site layout provides internal queue storage of 60 vehicles in addition to the 68 parking spaces designated for parents. The queue storage is more than 10% of the school’s population. Including the parking spaces provided, the site has capacity to store nearly 25% of the school’s population. • The queue storage capacity is approximately ½ of the 124 vehicles arriving at the site during the peak of the morning drop-off operations, which indicates that minimal queue spill back to the public street will occur during these operations.
