Section 16:47-4.23 - Analysis years(a) Traffic analyses shall be performed by the applicant for the year in which the development is fully built out.(b) Fair-share financial contributions or highway improvements and development may be staged, as long as appropriate fair-share financial contributions are made in advance of each stage. When the fair-share financial contributions and the development are staged, the years to be analyzed will be for the years in which fair-share financial contributions are made.(c) The applicant should not limit the traffic analysis focus to the specific location identified where an unacceptable deterioration of the LOS standards has been identified. In many cases it is preferable to direct site-generated traffic to other roadways. In other cases, improvements apart from the problem site may divert enough background traffic to make room for the site generated traffic and thus mitigate the impacts. Most capacity analyses assume that each intersection is acting independently; therefore, care must be taken to interpret the interactions between intersections and adjacent driveways.(d) The following table summarizes the requirements of this section: Development Stages | Years to be Analyzed |
Single (no improvements) | Build out |
Single (with improvements) | Improvement |
Multiple (no improvements) | Build out of each stage |
Multiple (with improvements) | Completion of each improvement |
