Pedestrian Studies Parking Studies Conceptual CADD based geometric details and concepts Conduct plan reviews of DOD installation projects to include entry gate designs, signing and pavement marking plans, traffic signal designs, safety improvement projects, roadway design, traffic control plans, roadway lighting, and force protection and security designs. Data provided in support of the project may also be analyzed and/or reviewed. This may include traffic impact studies, design calculations, master planning studies, speed studies, and force protection guidelines.

Telephone, email and written guidance shall be provided in the general areas of traffic operations and traffic control devices, force protection as it relates to the control of traffic, entry gate design parameters, roadway lighting, and safety.

At the request of SDDCTEA, the contractor may attend meetings that may include DOD agencies, state departments of transportation, federal agencies, or local municipal Government officials. Deliverables may include meeting minutes and tasks.

Assist with Traffic Engineering Workshop material development.

The description of the practices and deliverables for Task 1 are as follows:

Coordinate with the installation Point-of-Contact (POC) to schedule and conduct an on-site in-brief, with installation stakeholders, to review the scope of work, obtain necessary approvals and discuss data collection activities and outcomes.

Calculate future traffic demand projections utilizing Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) trip generation analysis, and independent forecasting based on known Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC), Grow the Army, and/or other known re-stationing. All stationing information shall be obtained through interview with the installation POC and through independent research. The traffic forecast design year shall be full build out year of all known improvements.

For studies involving Entry Control Facilities (ECFs), calculate the new lane requirements based on SDDCTEA Pamphlet 55-15, UFC 4-022-01, The Army Standard (AS) for Access Control Points (ACPs), and all other applicable service related requirements, latest versions. Utilize the SMART Decision Evaluator software (available on SDDCTEA’s website) to assist in identifying the existing, short-term, and long-term impacts of security, manpower, automation, and traffic.

For studies involving ECFs, interview the installation force protection and ID check personnel to query additional information concerning the current operations of internal and external access control points.

Provide conceptual scaled drawings of recommendations for new and modified ECFs. When applicable (sight distance triangle requirements, geometric adjustments, striping adjustments, design vehicle accommodations, sidewalks, etc.), provide conceptual scaled drawings of recommendations for intersections and/or roadways that are included as part of this study. This shall include all geometric data used in the roadway alignment, recommended lane configuration, active & passive vehicle barrier placement, striping, signing, environmental constraints, and a statement of feasibility of design. (This is intended to be 11” x 17” foldouts graphically identifying all recommendations - prepared in color to scale with MicroStation CAD software, and overlaid onto an aerial photograph).

Traffic and speed data collection, both manually and with automatic data collectors, shall be collected on a 15-minute period basis. The counting duration shall be subject to the requirements of the specific order.

Provide existing and future intersection capacity and network analysis utilizing HCS, or SYNCHRO, traffic capacity software. Provide a summary of results and recommendations based on Level of Service (LOS), with consideration of traffic flow and safety. Intersection summary shall include discussion of lane group LOS as well as intersection LOS. Analysis shall include queuing analysis for all intersection lane groups to identify congestion.

Road Safety Assessments shall, at a minimum, address the following items:

o Traffic control o Lane configuration o Signing o Striping o Design vehicle accommodation o Operational concerns o Roadside hazards o Improper traffic control devices o Bicycle and pedestrian access o Analysis of most recent five years of crash data, if available.

Categorize short-term and intermediate-term, recommendations Short-term recommendations are improvements that can be executed within six months utilizing normal installation maintenance resources that will provide immediate improvements to capacity, safety, and/or operations. Intermediate-term recommendations will are improvements that can be executed within one to two years and require some planning, design, and repair/construction authority to execute. Typically, intermediate-term recommendations can be implemented in stages with minimal impacts.

Provide construction and preliminary engineering cost estimates for all recommendations.

Provide a photographic record of all deficiencies and recommendations, where applicable. Locate them in the report.

Perform desktop analysis of specific safety or traffic engineering related roadway issues based on information and data provided by others.

Historical information on Quick Studies is provided in Attachment A.
