(a) 
A transportation impact study, as defined in Subsection B(8)(d) below, may be required of all major subdivisions and land developments. This study, if required, will enable the Borough of Moosic to assess the impact of a proposed development on the local transportation system. The study purpose is to ensure that proposed developments do not adversely affect the transportation network and to identify any traffic problems associated with access from the site to the existing transportation network. The study's purpose is also to delineate solutions to potential problems and to present improvements to be incorporated into the proposed development. The study will assist in the protection of air quality, the conservation of energy, and the encouragement of public transportation use.
(b) 
Subdivisions and land developments for which a transportation impact study will be required.
[1] 
A transportation impact study shall be required for all subdivisions and land developments that meet one or more of the following criteria:
[a] 
A residential subdivision/land development of 100 or more dwelling units.
[b] 
A nonresidential land development of 100,000 square feet or more of gross leasable floor space.
[c] 
A development which will generate an ADT of at least 1,500 vehicles; provided, however, that the Engineer may determine that a study shall be required for an ADT of less than 1,500 vehicles on heavily traveled roads or roads with poor sight distances; and provided further that all vehicular traffic projections shall be based on ultimate build-out, and shall be subject to verification by the Engineer.
[d] 
For any conditional use as specified in Chapter 300, Zoning, for which an environmental assessment is required.
[2] 
The governing body, upon the recommendation of the Engineer, shall have the discretion to require the preparation of a traffic impact study for any other subdivision or land development if, in its opinion, such a study is required.
(c) 
The Borough of Moosic shall select a qualified engineer and/or transportation planner with previous traffic study experience to review the applicant's transportation impact study. The Borough of Moosic may utilize applicant's fees, placed in escrow, to fund such studies. The procedures and standards for the traffic impact study, which shall be adhered to by the consultant, are set forth in Subsection B(8)(d) below.
(d) 
The transportation impact study shall contain, but not be limited to, the following information:
[1] 
General site description. The site description shall include the size, location, proposed land uses, construction staging and completion date of the proposed land development. If the development is residential, types of dwelling units and number of bedrooms shall also be included. A brief description of other major existing and proposed land developments within the study area shall be provided and shall be addressed by the traffic impact study. The general site description shall also include probable socioeconomic characteristics of potential site users to the extent that they might affect the transportation needs of the site (for example, the number of senior citizens).
[2] 
Transportation facilities description.
[a] 
The description shall contain a full documentation of the proposed internal and existing external transportation system. This description shall include internal vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian circulation, all proposed ingress and egress locations, all internal roadway widths and rights-of-way, parking conditions, traffic channelization, and any traffic signals or other intersection control devices within the site. The site design shall be shown to maximize potential public transportation usage to and from the development, such as providing adequate turning radii at all access points to allow a bus to enter the development. Bus shelter and sign locations shall be designated where appropriate.
[b] 
The report shall describe the entire external roadway system within the study area. Major intersections in the study area shall be identified and sketched. All existing and proposed public transportation services and facilities within a one-mile radius of the site shall also be documented. All future highway improvements, including proposed construction and traffic signalization, shall be noted. This information shall be obtained from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation 12-Year Highway Capital Improvements Program, the Lackawanna Valley Corridor Plan, the Lackawanna County Comprehensive Plan and from the municipality's Comprehensive Plan and Official Map. The applicability of current updates prior to the application under consideration shall be determined by the Engineer. Any proposed roadway improvements resulting from proposed surrounding development shall also be recorded.
[3] 
Existing traffic conditions.
[a] 
Existing traffic conditions shall be measured and documented on all streets and intersections in the study area. Traffic volumes shall be recorded for existing average daily traffic, existing peak hour traffic and for the land development's peak hour traffic. Complete traffic counts at all major intersections in the study area shall be conducted, encompassing the peak highway and development- generated hour(s), and documentation shall be included in the report. A volume/capacity analysis based upon existing volumes shall be performed for the peak hour(s) and the peak development-generated hour(s) for all roadways and major intersections in the study area. Levels of service shall be determined for each location.
[b] 
This analysis will determine the adequacy of the existing roadway system to serve the current traffic demand. Roadways and/or intersections experiencing levels of service E or F shall be noted as congestion locations.
[4] 
Transportation impact of the development.
[a] 
Estimation of vehicular trips to result from the proposed development shall be completed for both the street system and the development-generated peak hours. Vehicular trip generation rates to be used for this calculation shall be obtained from the Institute of Traffic Engineering (ITE) or other recognized traffic authorities. These development-generated traffic volumes shall be provided for the inbound and outbound traffic movements as estimated. The reference source(s) and methodology followed shall be cited. These generated volumes shall be distributed to the study area and assigned to the existing streets and intersections throughout the study area. Documentation of all assumptions used in the distribution and assignment phase shall be provided. Traffic volumes shall be assigned to all access points.
[b] 
Pedestrian volumes shall also be calculated, if applicable. If school crossings are to be used, pedestrian volumes shall be assigned to each crossing. Any characteristics of that site that will cause unusual trip generation rates and/or traffic flows shall be noted.
[5] 
Analysis of transportation impact.
[a] 
The total future traffic demand based on full occupancy of the proposed subdivision or land development shall be calculated. This demand shall consist of the combination of existing traffic expanded to the completion year, the development-generated traffic, and the traffic generated by other proposed developments in the study area. A volume/capacity analysis shall also be conducted using the total future demand and the future roadway capacity. If staging of the proposed development is anticipated, calculations for each stage of completion shall be made. This analysis shall be performed using the peak highway hour(s) and peak development-generated hour(s) for all streets and major intersections in the study area. Volume/capacity calculations shall be completed for all major intersections.
[b] 
All access points and pedestrian crossings shall be examined as to the feasibility of installing traffic signals. This evaluation shall compare the projected traffic and pedestrian volumes to the warrants for traffic signal installation. Levels of service for all streets and intersections shall be listed.
[6] 
Conclusions and recommended improvements.
[a] 
All streets and/or intersections showing a level of service below C shall be considered deficient, and specific recommendations for the elimination of these problems shall be listed. This listing of recommended improvements shall include but not be limited to the following elements: internal circulation design; site access location and design; external street and intersection design and improvements; traffic signal installation and operation, including signal times; and transit design improvements.
[b] 
Existing and/or future public transportation service shall also be addressed. A listing of all actions to be undertaken to increase present public transportation usage and improve service, if applicable, shall be included.
[c] 
The listing of recommended improvements for both streets and transit shall include, for each improvement, the party responsible for the improvement, the cost and funding of the improvement and the completion date for the improvement.
[d] 
The Planning Commission shall review the transportation impact study to analyze its adequacy in solving any traffic problems that will occur due to the subdivision or land development and make recommendations to the governing body.
[e] 
The governing body may decide that certain improvements contained in the study within the study area are required for preliminary application approval and may attach these conditions to the preliminary approval.
[f] 
For projects that require a highway occupancy permit (HOP) no preliminary application shall be approved without evidence of an approved HOP.
