SHAFOR BOULEVARD AT PATTERSON ROAD

This four-leg intersection is analyzed assuming 1 lane on the major street approach (Patterson Road) and 1 through lane on the minor street approach (Shafor Boulevard), resulting in the following:

Warrant #1. No hours of the TMC period exceeded the warrant #1 thresholds shown in OMUTCD Table 4C-1 for condition A and combo warrant (evaluated at 80%). Only one hour meets the warrant #1 thresholds for condition B. Warrant #1 is NOT satisfied.

Warrant #2. Plotting the four highest volume-pairs as described in the methodology section on top of OMUTCD Figure 4C-2 (Figure 17A) resulted in no volume pairs exceeding the warrant #2 threshold. Adjusting the collected volumes by 11% would still not result enough hours exceeding the warrant #2 thresholds. Warrant #2 is NOT satisfied.

Warrant #3. Plotting the highest volume-pair as described in the methodology section on top of OMUTCD Figure 4C-4 (Figure 17B) resulted in the volume pair not exceeding warrant #3 threshold. For Figure 4C-4, a minimum required peak hour traffic volume for the side street is 204 vehicles when 82 were actually present. Adjusting for COVID, the 11% increase to 91 vehicles still falls short for Warrant #3. Warrant #3 is NOT satisfied.
