Alfred Street Baptist ChurchSECTION 1INTRODUCTIONStudy ScopeThis report presents a Traffic Impact Study (TIS) for the Alfred Street Baptist Churchproject located in the City of Alexandria, Virginia.The site is located within the Old Town Small Area Plan and is bounded by Duke Street tothe north, Wolfe Street to the south, South Patrick Street to the west and South AlfredStreet to the east. The subject site is currently occupied by a 48,350 SF church with anobserved attendance of approximately 1,208 parishioners per service. Additionally, 22affordable townhouses are located on the southern portion of the site that are currentlybuilt and occupied. The site location is shown generally on Figure 1-1.The applicant proposes to raze the townhomes and redevelop and expand the existingchurch with approximately 181,150 total square feet of church space (from 1,208 to 2,163seats) and a structured parking garage. Parking would be provided via a proposed twolevel below-grade parking garage on site (226 spaces), a two level below-grade parkinggarage across South Patrick Street from the site (190 spaces), and a surface lot across ofSouth Patrick Street (49 spots) totaling 465 spaces. A total of 20 bicycle parking spaces willbe provided at grade and/or within the below grade parking garage. Access to the parkinggarage would respectively be located on opposite sides of South Patrick Street just north ofthe U-turn connection between South Henry Street and South Patrick Street. An additionalentrance to the below-grade garage under the church would be located on S. Alfred Street,with an internal connection to the site entrance on S. Patrick Street. Exiting vehicles wouldonly be able to utilize the site access point on S. Alfred Street. A service entrance and exitwill be located along Wolfe Street to the south of the site.The scope of this traffic study was established in consultation with the City of AlexandriaTransportation & Environmental Services (T&ES) staff, and the study evaluates existing2015 conditions and future 2022 traffic conditions without and with the proposeddevelopment, and build-out plus six (6) years with the proposed development.Based on the trip generation analyses, the development would not meet the 5,000 dailyvehicle trip threshold for a formal Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Chapter870 review.1

PurposeThe purpose of this traffic study is to evaluate the adequacy of the existing transportationnetwork in conjunction with the proposed development and identify potential mitigationmeasures to offset the development’s traffic impacts.This study was conducted in accordance with guidelines set forth in the City of Alexandria’sZoning Ordinance, Section 11-700. The proposed development is classified as a LargeDevelopment per the Transportation Planning Administrative Guidelines, Multi-modalTransportation Studies, dated March 25, 2013. The study area and scope was determinedwith City staff based on a review of key study intersections and roadways that potentiallywould be affected by the proposed development and accounting for the number of newtrips expected to be generated by the site. The approved study agreement is included asAppendix A.Based on discussions with City staff, the project is exempt from creating a TransportationDemand Management (TDM) in order to satisfy the need for the TransportationManagement Plan (TMP).Study Objective/MethodologyTasks undertaken in this study included the following: Confirmation of the traffic study scope and parameters from the City of AlexandriaTransportation & Environmental Services (T&ES) that must be addressed in this study. Review of the proposed development plans, development schedule, parking plans, andother background materials. A field reconnaissance of the subject site, adjacent properties, surrounding publicroadways, and traffic conditions. Collection of AM and PM peak hour traffic counts on a typical weekday from 6:30 to9:30 AM and from 4:30 AM to 7:30 PM at key off-site intersections. Peak hour trafficcounts were also conducted on a typical Sunday from 7:00AM-3:00PM. Collection of the on-street parking occupancy from 4:30 to 7:30 PM on one (1) typicalweekday (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday), and on two (2) Sundays from 7:00 AM to3:00 PM within a two (2) block radius of the site. Obtained existing traffic signal phasing/timing plans and electronic analysis files fromT&ES.2

Compiled an inventory of transit services and other non-auto facilities in the sitevicinity. Calculation of the existing weekday AM, weekday PM, and Sunday midday peak hourlevels of service and 50th and 95th percentile queues at key study intersections. Estimated of the number of weekday AM, weekday PM, and Sunday midday peak hourtrips that would be generated by the pipeline developments and the proposeddevelopment based on standard Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE), TripGeneration Manual, 9th Edition rates and equations. Identification of near-term background traffic volumes for the study area based on theexisting traffic counts, ambient traffic growth, and un-built developments (pipelinedevelopments) adjacent to the site. Analysis of future intersection levels of service and 50th and 95th percentile queues in2022 without and with the proposed development. Analysis of future intersection levels of service and 50th and 95th percentile queues in2028 with the proposed development (buildout plus six (6) years). Identification of traffic operations and potential road improvements required toadequately accommodate total future traffic forecasts in 2022. Identification of the number of parking spaces required based on the proposeddevelopment and a parking demand study based on the surrounding street network asagreed during the scoping process.Sources of data for this study included information provided by the City of Alexandria;VDOT; traffic data collected and field surveys conducted by Wells Associates Inc.;Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE); the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM); Alfred StreetBaptist Church, Christopher Consultants, Kerns Group Architects, and the files of Wells Associates Inc.3

Washington Street, Henry Street, and Patrick Street are the major north/south roadwayswhich connect Alexandria to National Airport and Washington D.C. and serve regionaltraffic from other Northern Virginia jurisdictions and Maryland. As noted, it is planned thatmost north/south traffic utilize these roadways and carpool traffic uses the HOV lanes onall three of the roadways. As a result, Washington Street, Henry Street, and Patrick Streetare all heavily traveled in the morning and evening by commuters.Roadway NetworkRegional access to the subject site is provided by Washington Street, US Route 1 (S. HenryStreet and S. Patrick Street), King Street and Duke Street which provide connections toInterstate 495/95 and Interstate 395 to the north, west and south. Local access to the siteis provided via signalized intersections along Duke Street at S. Patrick Street and S. AlfredStreet. Direct access to the existing and proposed parking garages is provided along S.Patrick Street and S. Alfred Street.US Route 1 (Henry Street/ Patrick Street) are south/north one-way urban principalarterial roads typically with three (3) lanes in their respective directions. The roads haveposted speed limits of 25 mph.Washington Street is a four-lane urban principal arterial with a posted speed limit of 25mph that serves local land uses with traffic signals located at major intersections. The curblane in the northbound direction from 7:00 to 9:00 AM and in the southbound directionfrom 4:00 to 6:00 PM is restricted to HOV 2 only. On-street parking is permitted innorthbound curb lanes except between 7:00 to 9:00 AM and in the southbound curb lanesexcept for between 4:00 to 6:00 PM.Alfred Street is a local two-way street with one travel lane in both the northbound andsouthbound directions. It has a posted speed limit of 25 mph. On-street parking is providedon most block faces with varying restrictions.Wolfe Street is a local road that operates one lane in each direction near the proposed site.It has a posted speed limit of 25 mph. Two-hour parking is provided along both sides ofWolfe Street. It currently terminates before S. Patrick Street along the southern portion ofthe site frontage.7
