Sub-problem 2c: Analysis of the South Section of Krome Avenue (Class I Signalized Arterial)

Sensitivity Analysis
Using an established Growth rare of 2.3%, we can now project the years in which the traffic volumes will cross the various LOS thresholds. Based on volume projection, we can estimate that:

• LOS B is the existing condition.

• LOS C will be reached in three years.

• LOS D will be reached in six years.

• LOS E will be reached in eleven years.

Note that these projections assume no changes in any of the operating parameters within the timeframe of this analysis. It must be recognized that some of the parameters could change as a result of increased traffic volumes. For example, the g/c ratios could be reduced if protected left-turn phases are required on approaches that currently have no protected left turns.
