Trip Distribution
Based on current traffic patterns and the planned changes with the study area, the following
scenario was developed to project how traffic would flow to and from the proposed areas.
The following table summarizes the proposed distributions.

Projected Volumes
Using the distributed volumes and the available average daily traffic (ADT) volumes
available for the roadways within the project area, required roadway lanes were developed.
The existing ADTs were projected to 2034 using a 1% growth per year factor to account for
background traffic growth outside of the project area.
The following table shows the anticipated 2034 Total ADT volumes.
