Trip Generation and Traffic Distribution Analysis <br />• Basis of Analysis: <br />• ITE - Institute of Transportation Engineers' Trip Generation, 1011 Edition, is the only reference <br />adopted by the transportation engineering community for estimating traffic from new <br />developments. MnDOT, Sherburne County, and the City of Elk River utilize the methodology <br />from Trip Generation. <br />• The results from Trip Generation analysis inform agencies of the need to improve roadway <br />capacity, or not, for local roads, collector roads or highways. <br />• The analysis for Broadway on 10 reviewed the number of trips from the existing homes in the <br />adjacent neighborhood, as well as the proposed number of residential units from the <br />development. These trips were assigned to the existing and proposed roadway connections <br />based on travel times from Google Maps. <br />• In this circumstance, the study area includes the proposed development street network, the <br />service drive to the west to the nearest access to US Hwy. 10, Yankton Street and Xerxes Street, <br />and Waco Street. <br />
