TRAFFIC SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 PARK PLACE TRAFFIC SUPPLEMENT NO. 1 Park Place, a combination office park and specialty retail center, will be a major project in Pinellas County and will bring numerous impacts. Due 'in part to its location and size, one of its major impacts will be on the transportation system. In addition to the information provided in the Application for Development Approval (ADA) and the Amendment to the ADA, further studies have been made to identify and reduce the impacts on the regional transportation system. Initially, forty-two intersections were identified for. analysis. Each of these inter- sections was analyzed and was determined to be in one of the fol- lowing categories: 1. With project traffic the level of service (LOS) will be D or above. 2. Project traffic will have less than.a five percent (5) impact. 3. Intersection improvements have been planned and con- struction funds committed. 4. Because of the impacts further analysis ~s required. As a result of the foregoing effort; twelve (12) inter- sections were identified for further analysis. The further analysis included the use of four transportation system management techniques to reduce person trips and, sub- sequently, vehicle trips to and from Park Place during the peak hours. The four transportation system management techniques employed were: 1. Ride sharing 2. Public transit facilities 3. Express bus service 4.- Flex time Each of these techniques reduced the number of peak hour trips to and from the project site. A ride sharing program could accommodate nine percent (9%) of the total office person peak hour trips. With improved public transit facilities and scheduling, fifteen percent (15%) of the total office person trips could be ex- pected to use public transit during the peak hour. By utilizing flex time, nineteen and two-tenth percent (19.2%) of the total of- fice person trips were shifted outside of the peak hour. The express bus service would be utilized at Phase III and would serve the area along U.S. 19 north of State Road 60. The express bus service would reduce the total office person trips during the peak hour by three and two-tents percent (3.2%). Table 3 summarizes for each of the twelve (12) intersections the existing conditions, the impacts of Phase II and III traffic and the reductions in traffic attributable to the implementation of the transportation system rna~agernent techniques. .
