Traffic
Traffic surveys coordinated by BMC Traffic at Luther Heights Youth Camp recorded the following trip
generation rates:
         AM peak hour traffic generation:        0.045 trips / bed (50%in / 50% out).
         PM peak hour traffic generation:        0.012 trips / bed (50%in / 50% out).
Application of these rates to the proposed 299 bed facility estimates:
         AM road network peak hour:     14 trips / hour.
         PM road network peak hour:     4 trips / hour.
This private vehicle trip generation is expected to be primarily associated with staff use.
The first principles assessment which assumes 38 trips for staff is therefore considered conservative, if
anything, overstating the traffic impacts.
