Sub-problem 1b: Maxwell Drive PM Peak Hour - With Conditions

Let’s now explore some modeling issues in the context of the PM With conditions for the Maxwell Drive intersection. The intersecting volumes for both the PM Without and PM With condition are shown in Exhibit 2-14. We will focus on the PM With condition. It will be useful to see (by the differences) the traffic growth we’ve assumed between the base case volumes (Exhibit 2-7) and the PM Without conditions as well as the site-generated traffic we’ve added between the PM Without and the PM With conditions.
