FREIGHT ROUTES
Insert Page 2.10 of the Transportation Plan at the end of the discussion
on Truck Routes:
6°~ Street SE provides a short link on the freight route network. Though the street is in
relatively poor condition, it is more suitable for the current fairly light volarne of truck
traffic than the alternative east-west routes. 12t~ Street SE and 17th Street SE provide
alternative routes, but both streets pass through residential neighborhoods and are
adjacent to elementary and middle schools. Ifa significant demand for truck traffic were
to be added, 6th Street would require substantial improvement along with the 6t~
Street/Auburn Way S/SR18 interchange (if this is possible). 12th Street SE and 17th
Street SE are not appropriate routes for significant volumes of truck traffic due to the
adjacent land uses. The only reasonable alternative may be construction of the SR18
eastbound ramp realignment/6th Street SE project described in the TIP project
description.

.........,,,.,,,,,~'~" below LOS "D" _ pel;.
Table '1.2. In addition, if an
i..¢ntsrsection is listed il~
Table 1.2 A its LO~.
Standard is shown in that
t~ble "'~'~-" +~;- "";~'--'
Unsignalized Intersections:
The unsignalized intersection
LOS standard shall be LOS
"D", calculated as if the
intersection was signalized. A
traffic signal warrant analysis
will be conducted, as needed,
to determine if a signal should
be installed. Table 1.2. shows
existing LOS for signalized &
major unsignalized
intersections in Auburn.
Arterial Link (Capacity) LOS
Road capacity is a function of the
design of the roadway, particularly
the number of lanes. The arterial
link (Capacity) LOS will be calculated
by considering the volume-to-
capacity ratio for each arterial link. It
may be measured in terms of
average daily traffic or peak hour
traffic or other such measures as
Auburn Transportation Plan Page 1.9
CHAPTER - I
Transportation Goals & Poli¢ia,~
b. A reduction in any of three LOS
standards as follows:
1. Arterial Corridor LOS: The
Level of Service standard for
each arterial corridor is "D".
2,a, Signalized Intersection LOS:

listed in Table '1.2 A its LOS
S._~ndard is shown in that
table.
2.b. Unsignalized Intersection
LOS: The level of service
standard for these intersections,
measured as if it were signalized,
shall be level of service "D". A

Functional Classification
All roads within Auburn are classified
according to their "functional
classification". These classifications
describe the character of service that
a road is intended to provide, as well
as establish minimum design
standards to meet the expected
performance standards. Roadways
within the Auburn Urban Growth
Area will be designated consistent
with the 1994 edition of"A Policy on
Geometric Design of Highways and
Streets" Published by the American
Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials (AASHTO),
the guidelines of the Washington
State Department of Transportation
as mandated by RCW 47.05.021,
and King County. Roadway
classifications in Auburn are:
Arterial Streets
Principal Arterial
Minor Arterial
Collector Arterial
· Rural Roads
Rural Collectors
Rural Residential
Local Streets
Local Residential
Local Non-Residential
Objective:
To provide an integrated
street network of appropriate
classes of streets designed to
facilitate different types of
traffic flows and access needs.
