' I`a'OF•DFC9� DECATUR, ILLINOIS <br /> V A <br /> � Lake Shore Driue Relocation Study <br /> ' ��«�� <br /> ' <br /> � Traffic Generation <br /> Because the actual future use of potential redevelopment land is unknown at this time,a maximum <br /> � case scenario was assumed for the purpose of trip generation estimates. The potential trip <br /> generation estimates are developed on the assumption that some kind of mixed land use <br /> redevelopment may occur in the future and could generate a comparable amount of traffic to the <br /> � assumptions set forth in this study. T'he background traffic growth on Lake Shore Drive apart from <br /> new trip generation spurred by redevelopment was assumed to be no- grow. Extrapolation of <br /> historical traffic counts on Lake Shore Drive served as the basis for the no-growth traffic assumption, <br /> as depicted by Figure No.3-1. This background traffic reflects that there has been little impact from <br /> � City-wide growth on Lake Shore Drive traffic volumes. <br /> ' 25000 Historical Traffic Counts <br /> � ,� <br /> 20000 ,� ` <br /> d ``� � � '� <br /> � � <br /> � 15000 Traffic Projections <br /> U <br /> � � <br /> T �Q�� <br /> .� <br /> � <br /> � 5000 <br /> � 0 M 117 1� 07 C i lt7 1� 61 f�'i l!7 <br /> n n n n ao ao ao m m m m m <br /> m m m m a� m m m m m m m <br /> � r � r � Year � � � T � � � <br /> Figure 3-1 Background Traffic Growth for Lake Shore Drive <br /> � <br /> � <br /> � <br /> � <br /> , Bucher, Willis�Ratliff-18 <br /> rv�ywmwm uroam cEroxT.wrs <br />
