completed to prepare the Auburn Downtown Plan and the Environmental Analyses Multiple scenarios were run to aid in the development of the proposed Downtown Plan and which are documented chronologically in this appendix Maps of model runs are available for review at the Community Development Department City of Auburn City Hall The existing Auburn 1996 Transportation Model TMODEL was used as a starting point for transportation analysis which was then updated with revised downtown land use Land use outside the downtown area remained constant Traffic counts within the downtown core were updated and included in the re calibration process Transportation analyses completed as part of the downtown plan include Re calibration of the existing City wide model in and around the downtown core area Iterations of the re calibrated model with and without the transit rail station and associated parking structure Iterations of the re calibrated downtown model with and without the extension of A Street to 15th Street NW Iterations of different configurations of the A Street extension to 15th Street NW Projections of traffic for the preferred Downtown Plan for 6 year and 20 year timeframes Because of a need to relate the downtown plan to the areas outside the downtown core modifications were made to the existing City wide model 1996 calibration and analyzed for determination of impacts for areas outside the downtown core Appendix Transportation r PrpmhPr 7 7000 Transportation Model Technical Memorandum Task 3 6 TO Julia Walton Arai Jackson FROM Steve Lewis Bucher Willis

Transit Center Land Use and Zone Changes The existing City of Auburn transportation model was used as the starting point for this analysis with only minor revisions One of these revisions was to the Transportation Analysis Zone TAZ structure or the division of the land into identifiable pieces The calibrated City model contained seven zones for the downtown area To allow for a more detailed analysis these seven zones were subdivided into sixteen zones These subdivided zones shown in Table 2 and Figure 1 are located along the Main Street corridor and include two zones for the proposed transit center one zone located on each side of the existing Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway railroad tracks Existing land use within the TAZ assignments were also subdivided into the new zones with an emphasis on providing updated land use information for these zones Therefore the land use control totals for this model may differ from the calibrated 1996 model see Land Use Subdivision Tables 3 and 4 H Transportation Infrastructure Changes In addition to minor changes in the uses of land in the subdivided zones one infrastructure modification was included to allow for more detailed analysis of the study area This change was the inclusion of the proposed C Street SR 18 interchange including the proposed number of lanes ramps and design speed as outlined in the 3rd Street SW Grade Separation Design Report produced by Earthtech Projected Traffic In comparing the calibrated City model with the re calibrated downtown area model the major differences are located along Main Street and the major north south corridors See Figures 2 and 3 Because of the additional zones and links in the re calibrated downtown model a direct comparison cannot be completed Instead each model run the calibrated City model and the re calibrated downtown model is presented for user comparison As a base of comparison Figure 4 shows the traffic counts used in the calibration of both the City model and the re calibrated downtown model and Figures 5 and 6 show the difference between the respective model and the traffic count data Table 5 shows the differences in tabular form Conclusions Overall the re calibrated model more closely resembles existing traffic counts within the downtown core NOTE this analysis did not consider the model generated traffic on segments of roadway outside the downtown area I s Transportation Model Transportation Model Inclusion of the A Street loop connecting South Division and the C Street SR 18 interchange loop ramp with A Street 2 lanes each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Removal of intersection of A Street and 3 d Street SW This movement will be simulated using the new C Street interchange and the A Street loop Inclusion of 1 st Street SW as a major collector with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Projected Traffic The addition of the A Street extension to the street network will act as a reliever to C Street and to a lessor degree Auburn Way and Auburn Avenue A Street will be constructed to provide an alternative north south access link to 15th Street NW and the SR 167 interchange Without the Transit Station the need for the A Street extension diminishes The re calibrated downtown model predicts sufficient capacity along the C Street corridor to accommodate 1996 traffic With the traffic delays resulting from intersection closures due to increased rail traffic additional traffic is predicted to shift to Auburn Avenue and Auburn Way Figure 8 shows the model generated traffic and Table 7 compares roadway links for the affected area with the re calibrated 1996 downtown model Conclusions With this analysis large increases in traffic are projected along Main Street between C Street and Auburn Way The traffic movement utilizing A Street and Division Street to access Main Street then travels along Main Street to Auburn Avenue and Auburn Way and continues north south The projected traffic along A Street extension is minimal at the present time 1996 with Transit Center and A Street Extension Land Use and Transportation Infrastructure Changes No land use changes other than those presented above were made for this iteration Transportation infrastructure changes included in this scenario consisted of Inclusion of the C Street interchange Inclusion of A Street extension to 15th Street NE with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 35 mph Inclusion of the A Street loop connecting South Division and the C Street SR 18 interchange loop ramp with A Street 2 lanes each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Removal of intersection of A Street and 3 d Street SW This movement will be simulated using the new C Street interchange and the A Street loop Inclusion of 1 st Street SW as a major collector with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Inclusion of parking stall configuration for the transit center 431 east 182 west of tracks H 0 P 1 I I J Transportation Model 7 I Transportation Model Projected Traffic Along with the 1996 re calibration the downtown model produced a 2020 year forecast of traffic See Figure 10 When the projected 2020 City model See Figure 11 Note in the 2020 City calibrated model the parking spaces were included in analysis as presented here is compared to the re calibrated downtown model the differences in the projected traffic on certain links due to the additional detail in the downtown area can be seen The major discrepancies between the calibrated City model and the re calibrated downtown model are shown in Table 11 and include all major north south corridors C Street decreases in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes Division Street overall decrease southbound and overall increase northbound in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes Auburn Way overall increase northbound and southbound in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes and Auburn Avenue overall increase northbound and overall decrease southbound in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes as well as 1 St Street NW overall decrease northbound and southbound in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes and a Street NE overall increase northbound and southbound in relation to the calibrated City projected traffic volumes I I 2020 Capacity of Roadways The usual measure of capacity v c volume to capacity ratio provides an easy way to determine the level of service of roadway segments The acceptable LOS for the City of Auburn is LOS C or a v c ratio of less than 0 80 Looking at the projection of the calibrated City model and the re calibrated downtown model 4 locations are projected to exceed that level For each location the re calibrated downtown model has a lower v c ratio but still exceeds the acceptable level Mitigation measures will have to be instituted to relieve congestion at these locations and or the acceptable LOS within the downtown area must be adjusted These locations include Main Street east and west of C Street SR 18 both directions through the downtown area Auburn Avenue between 5t Street NE and Main Street Auburn Way south of 15 Street SW Conclusions With the projection of the re calibrated model and the slight adjustments to both the land use and the transportation infrastructure to the year 2020 the model generated traffic volumes increase at a similar rate making any discrepancy within the 1996 analysis larger in the 2020 analysis With this in mind and the supposition that the re calibrated 1996 downtown model was a more realistic look at the traffic within the downtown core it can be postulated that the 2020 projected re calibrated model as presented above will more accurately project the traffic conditions seen in 2020 Transportation Model 9 CITY AUBURN DOWNTOWN PLAN Transportation Model Inclusion of A Street extension to 15th Street NE with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 35 mph Inclusion of the A Street loop connecting South Division and the C Street SR 18 interchange loop ramp with A Street 2 lanes each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Removal of intersection of A Street and 3 Street SW This movement will be simulated using the new C Street interchange and the A Street loop Inclusion of 1 st Street SW as a major collector with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 25 mph Projected Traffic With or without the transit center the A Street corridor becomes a major north south access in the year 2020 Figure 13 shows the model generated traffic and Table 13 compares roadway links for the affected area with the re calibrated 2020 downtown model It is projected that in the year 2020 A Street will carry more automobiles than C Street approximately the same amount as Auburn Way and 142the traffic of Auburn Avenue within the downtown area Conclusions With the additional land use expected in 2020 the A Street extension becomes a major north south corridor with projected model generated traffic volumes exceeding those on C Street This condition is largely the result of the inclusion of the A Street loop and the delays associated with the railroad crossings and alternative intersections along C Street Additionally approximately 100 vehicles southbound from both Auburn Avenue and Auburn Way are re routed along A Street 2020 with Transit Center and A Street Extension Land Use and Transportation Infrastructure Changes No land use or transportation infrastructure changes other than those outlined below were included Inclusion of the C Street interchange A Street SW south of Main Street was coded as 2 lanes each direction 30 mph and 1 800 peak hour vehicle capacity A Street SW north of Main Street was coded as 2 lanes each direction 35 mph and 1 800 peak hour vehicle capacity Inclusion of A Street extension to 15th Street NE with 1 lane each direction and a design speed of 35 mph Inclusion of the A Street loop connecting South Division and the C Street SR 18 interchange loop ramp with A Street 2 lanes each direction and a design speed of 25 mph 0 1 fl 0 1 Transportation Model 11 J I Transportation Model Tables and Figures 1S Table 2

downtown Auburn area in relation to different configurations of A Street do not differ greatly The list below outlines the areas where counts differ greatest The changes in volumes are on the order of 100 300 vehicles during the pm peak hour period This increase equates to approximately an additional 1 6 5 vehicle increaseldecrease on these roadway segments every minute if the increase were to be steady over the entire peak hour Northbound Southbound A Street north of Main Street C Street south of Main Street A Street north of 1s Street NW A Street north of 2nd Street SW A Street north of 3rd

the area shown in Figure 1 1 on the following page It extends from the Aubum City limits at me north into Pierce County on the south from I 5 to the west and expanding to the east along SR I8 and the Aubum Enumclaw Highway This area recognizes the exirtiug concentration of retail development in Fedusl Way Tukwila and Puyallup the crucial boundary of the plateau to the west and the existing transportation routes extendng to the cast This trade area has a turret population of 192 000 with potential growth to 222 000 by the year 2010 and 258 000 by 2020 There were approximately 69 0110

to attract development Auburn should incomme its intensity of commercial and residential development and attract more office and high main development as sites in close in communities become scarce Over time Auburn will take on a ebaraemu more similar m the suburban cities on the east side of Lake Washington In particular Auburn should be competitive with Renton for the type of downtown mixed use development which the latter is currently attracting Animals location on the commuter mil line and its compact identifiable downtown compare favorably to the chamcterof Renton There a eral development trends and opportunities which will influence development in downtown Auburn Growth in Market Area Population and Spending Auburn has a relatively higher capacity for residential development and will capture a higher share of regional growth than it bas historically Growth in Downtown Employment and Population With strong growth Outlook for medical related employment finance and business services and City employment the additional activity in Downtown should spur further development Commuter Rail will provide the greatest influence symbolically if not economically The

elsewhere in the City A 50 000 to 70 000 square foot four story building such as the Centennial Building in Kent would meet this need Growth in the Auburn Medical Center would support 5 000 square feet of absorption per year Overall office absorption should be sustainable over time at approximately 15 000 squaw feet per year LODGING DEMAND Auburn has approximately 350 hotel or motel rooms The existing properties are generally limited service hotels with limited meal service or meeting space Most are located in North Auburn The only large meeting facilities m the City am in the Green River Community College or fiataml and civic facilities Auburn would benefit farm a full service hotel with hoed service and meeting facilities In the immediate future it is likely that any new lodging will co mit to be limited service It might he possible to amac a goad quality fimbi hotel and independent restaurant and some type of public meeting facility in a coordinated development project The overall result would be equivalent to a small convention hotel and could attract moderate sized convention of 150 to 200 attmdms The opportunity for such a development is dependent upon Identifying a site with access and visibility to SR I8 and A strong effort to provide amenities such as the meeting space in a public private cooperative effort RESIDEN l DEMAND The Auburn housing market is

the Village Green and Evergreen Lodge The Village Green opened in September 1999 and is renting at rates of 81 200 to 2 500 per month l he surrounding communities of Kent and Renton have also attracted several privately developed federally subsidimed projects The two cities have 5 and 3 projects respectively developed by Senior Housing Assistance Group each providing 100 units PROJECTED DEMAND Auburn has demonstrated an ability to attract new single and multifamily development The lower prices in Auburn reflect its greater distance from the employment centers of the Puget Sound region The provision of the commuter rail service to Auburn will increase the accessibility and convenience of commuting W employment from Aubum and the lower prices should represent a bargain This will be true for residents throughout Aubum but particularly true f new residents of Downtown within walking distance of the commuter mil sending New residential development in Downtown Auburn has three strong selling points A small rawerfeel Pmxhuitym goods services and amenities Convenient access to employment centers With completion of the commuter mil station and service Dowvtoxn should be able to attract many rail users Based on the projected ridership in 2010 of 900 boardings and the estimate that 40 percent of the riders will arrive by bus and represent a more likely potential group for living downtown a 25 percent to 30 percent share of these riders would support 90 t 10 gaits A project this size would be comparable in size to the proposed new mixed use project near the transf station in downtown Renton Over the longer term a capture of 10 20 perent of the multifamily housing demand in the City would support 25 50 units of new housing in the Downtown each year Downtown is also m attractive place for senior housing The Auburn Medical Center is a strong factor as are the goods and services of the business districts The Downtown would benefit from the potential spending of residents in market rate senior housing and assisted living projects A 50 60 unit project should be supportable over the next 3 5 years AgagaNDOwNTOWNPLAN MARKUSTUOv PROPERTV000NSELm s CN vrea EX
