Box 1145 / 665 Leff Street To:Citizens Concerned for Prado Road San Luis Obispo, CA 93406 1145 c.o. Bill Wilson Tel/Fax (805) 545 - 5919 1690 Southwood Drive San Luis Obispo,CA 93401 Prado Road San Luis Obispo:Alternative North or Tank Farm Road? A group of sport fans,teachers and citizens who are scared about the ongoing and upcoming"Los Angelization"of the southern part of SLO has asked us to look into the above question. Our conclusion is: 1. The Damon-Garcia Sports Complex could already be under construction had the City not chosen to link it with the construction of an outdated and unneeded project called Prado Road. Instead of looking at all alternatives in the whole area from Orcutt Road to Los Osos Valley Road(LOUR)and south to Buckley Road within an overall EIR,the City chose to implement the Prado Road concept in a piecemeal process in which citizens who favor a more comprehensive concept were systematically ignored.The culmination of this process is the newest proposal of the City's Community Development Department to not even prepare an EIR for their proposed Prado Road North alignment. This omission of an EIR is probably in violation of CEQA. 2. Based on transportation considerations and the given constraints of hazardous materials and biology, we propose a long range alternative called Highway 227 on Buckley Road, which is shown in the enclosure.Buckley Road will be two lanes with widened intersections according to Caltrans guidelines.Tank Farm Road will remain mostly a two-lane arterial and Prado Road will act as a two- lane collector street leading into Tank Farm Road at a simple and safe intersection with the realigned Santa Fe Road. V 3. This proposal should be incorporated into the recently formed technical task force for the study of a `+ 3 realigned freeway interchange 101/LOUR. Stakeholders and professionals from City, County and aCaltrans should join the task force to study solutions for the whole southern part of town and beyond y the southern urban reserve line. The lead agency could be the Caltrans Community Relations Department. In the long team however,Caltrans could also consider selling parts of Highway 227 to Q the City and the County,as has been done in other cities. 4. By refusing to give the environmental permits for the official Alternative North,the Army Corps of Engineers will help to promote the idea of sustainable transportation and city planning.On the site of the sport.fields, the land for road alternative North should be used for a regional bicycle/pedestrian boulevard leading from the Orcutt Area in the east to the Froom Ranch Area west of LOUR.The main road crossings at Broad and South Higuera Streets,Highway 101 and LOVR could be in the form of bicycle/pedestrian bridges.

Letter by the Publ.Works Director of Oct.27,2000,to the Army Corps of Engineers This letter says on the first page that 'the Prado Road Extension will reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality'. This statement is false if seen in a wider context.No project EIR was done over the whole mega project and the whole southern part of town. 1.1 Circulation Element and modern city planning The current project is in contradiction with the 8 goals and with p. 10 of the Circulation Element CE, which stress bicycles,pedestrians and public transit instead of huge investments in roads. A network of bicycle/pedestrian paths independent from roads connecting all the major activity centers must be planned for the whole southern part of the city from Orcutt Road to Laguna Lake, Los Osos Valley Road(LOVR)and further west.This includes cycle/ped. bridges over main roads like Broad Street, Highway 101 and LOVR.Such networks reduce vehicular traffic up to 30%.A proposal is shown in appendix 1. The current project does not show future bus routes or bus stops with a convincing concept of pedestrian walkways leading to them. . 1.2 Traffic forecasts The current road project contains an overkill of traffic lanes,which will only attract new vehicular traffic'out of the blue skies'. This phenomenon is called 'induced traffic'and is well known among traffic modelers(see de Souza and Litman in ITE Journals Feb.2000 and Jan.2001). The project proposes 8 east-west traffic lanes:4 on Prado Road,2 on Tank Farm Road and 2 on Buckley Road.Today's total daily east-west traffic(ADT)is 10,000 vehicles.Today there are 4 east- west traffic lanes with an approximate capacity of 40,000 vehicles. The proposed 8 east-west traffic lanes could cavy up to 80,000 vehicles per day - 8 times more than today(appendix 2). This is unneeded,as the city estimates a future traffic volume of 70,000 vehicles per day.With an independent bicycle/ped.network and good public transportation this volume will be reduced to 50,000 vehicles per day.This means that a maximum of 6 east-west traffic lanes is needed. 13 Phasing New traffic lanes should only be built when they are really necessary,based on appropriate levels of service for pedestrians,bicycles,transit and cars. New traffic lanes should not be built'way in advance',as the city proposes. Our concept allows for different and flexible phasing schemes.Our proposed Prado collector street should be built in the near future. Our concept allows for additional traffic capacity,if this is really needed in the long term. It should also be noted,that recent land use decisions will further reduce future vehicular trip generation:The Dallidio area may never be developed or only with lower density. This makes the expensive Prado Road freeway interchange unnecessary and the freeway itself safer. Caltrans guidelines indicate anyway,that this full interchange is in the wrong place.The weaving lengths on the west side of Hwy. 101 are too short.Any new freeway interchange between Madonna and LOVR is not only unneeded,but constitutes a grave ecological impact in the San Luis Obispo Creek corridor. The airport commission now asks that residential densities near the airport be reduced,which in the end could ultimately mean no school and even no sports complex in this location. 1.4 Our proposal:Route 227 on Buckley Road Based on the maps of hazardous material constraints(appendix 3)and biological constraints,we propose a long term concept with 6 east west traffic lanes(appendix 4 and 5). The main elements are: - Buckley Road as Highway 227 leading in the logical direction,namely into LOVR(2 lanes) - Tank Farm Road as a parkway arterial according to the CE(2 lanes) - Prado Road as a collector,leading into Tank Farm Road and directly into the realigned Santa Fe Road. All the above roads will have widened intersections as appropriate. 1 y_ Mill '�{ `iyiJ ,' i.i ,j r•♦ o®R-1 e A sub alternative is shown in appendix 6, but we consider the solution in appendix 4 to be more economical and easier to understand for car drivers.Appendix 6 shows that Prado Road could theoretically be designed according to Caltrans standards,but such a design near a residential area makes little sense. In a letter to the Publ.Works Director,Caltrans Engineer R.Krumholz wrote on April 3,2000,that'Route 227 is not of interregional significance'. The trend in Caltrans is anyway to lower the standards of such routes or to even hand over such routes to the municipalities and counties. For the US Corps of Engineers it is important to note that all our alternatives appear to impact the creeks near the sports complex considerably less than the official Alternative North. 2. Exhibit 4b attached to the letter and other documents Exhibit 4b mentions in Table 1 on p.7 the'City General Plan Policies'which are supposedly'Satisfied'by the project.As mentioned above,this project does not satisfy the general philosophy of the CE.A closer look shows that the following policies are not satisfied: 8.10;8.2; 8.6 and 3.3. Exhibit 4b and the Fehr and Peers reports of Sept./Oct. 1999 mention the laudable goal of relieving South Street from traffic based on the Fehr and Peers traffic model: 2.1 Relieving South Street The Deputy Public Works Director maintains that Prado Road North is the only alternative to achieve this goal.This hypothesis could only be evaluated if a special'link analysis'of South Street had been made. Such an analysis shows the exact origin and destination zones of each car travelling east-west through South street.This analysis was not done. The hypothesis of the City appears to be false for the following reasons: 2.1.1 Newer research by ITS Berkeley shows that commuters are not sensitive to travel time changes if the trip is shorter than 15 minutes.In fact commuters appear to appreciate a certain'time buffer' between home and work.Most trips in our area are exactly of this type. However,the City mentions correctly,that the most distance-sensitive travelers are pedestrians and cyclists. The City just does not put this philosophy into practice. 2.1.2 When considering Alternative North or Tank Farm Road,the difference in travel time for most east-west drivers is anyway negligible. 2.1.3 In order to achieve a real shift,the travel speed on South Street must be reduced through traffic calming e.g.medians.Noise wise the reduction in traffic volume has practically no effect,the speed reduction has a strong effect:Reducing the volume to 50%reduces noise only by 3 DBa, reducing the speed by 50%reduces noise by 10 DBa. Speed reduction also reduces air pollution considerably and enhances traffic safety. 2.2 Traffic Model The traffic model appears to be misused or deficient in many ways. 2.2.1 Levels of Service(LOS)calculations are not shown. It is well known that the results vary considerably depending on which method is used. 2.2.2 LOS are calculated for cars only.Pedestrians,cyclists and bus users are not evaluated.If a car driver has to wait for a minute,it is LOS F(miserable).If a transit user sees a bus only every hour, the traffic engineer rarely cares. 2.2.3 Fehr and Peers appear to be totally unaware of the phenomenon of'induced traffic'as mentioned under 1.2.This phenomenon certainly applies in such a mega project.
