Two parking areas are located adjacent to the highway at this location, with <br />access on opposite sides of the highway. Two private drives providing access to mining <br />areas also intersect Highway 67 just south of the parking lot accesses. These two access <br />drives do not provide access to employee parking areas. Heaviest traffic volumes were <br />observed utilizing the parking area accesses, and hence that intersection was selected for <br />assessment as the critical intersection for this location. A capacity analysis conducted for <br />this intersection with existing traffic showed peak period operations at LOS A (average <br />1.2"/vehicle delay), with no single movement falling below LOS A. <br />Based on the capacity analysis, access locations experience no capacity deficiencies under <br />existing conditions. Both access points under study operate at LOS A with less than 2 <br />seconds/vehicle delay for side road traffic. <br />r~ <br />U <br />Mine Service Road <br />(Private) <br />tl1 <br />to <br />. 1/ <br />~\ <br />TranSystems Corporation -March 7, 2000 Page 12 <br />
