Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Background A Road Safety Audit (RSA) as defined by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is ldquothe formal safety performance examination of an existing or future road or intersection by an independent multidisciplinary teamrdquo An RSA qualitatively estimates and reports on all safety issues and identifies opportunities for safety improvements for all roadway users The ldquoconducting of RSAs at high-crash locations throughout the Commonwealthrdquo is one of the many strategies noted in the statersquos Strategic Highway Safety Plan which was developed in an effort to reduce the number of crash-related fatalities and incapacitating injuries on roadways within Massachusetts

The Interstate Route 95 ramps with Storey Avenue (Route 113) were identified by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission as being one of the top locations for crashes within the Merrimack Valley According to the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organizationrsquos (MPOrsquos) 2011 Regional Transportation Plan this location experienced a total of 59 crashes over a period of three years from 2006 to 2008 For the approximate 3462 locations within the Merrimack Valley that experienced crashes this location is ranked as being number 23 in terms of the overall crash frequency and number 21 in terms of Equivalent Property Damage Only

Because the Interstate Route 95 ramp intersection locations are within the top five percent of crash clusters in the Merrimack Valley region it is eligible for the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) MassDOT incorporated the RSA as a requirement for securing Federal funding (HSIP funds) for safety projects For these reasons this intersection was chosen as the site of an RSA by the Merrimack Valley MPO to help identify potential short-term and long-term safety improvements that could be made if HSIP funding is received

Project Data The Road Safety Audit was conducted on November 19 2012 for Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps As shown in Table 1 the audit team was comprised of state regional and local agencies and included professionals from emergency response engineering and planning

Prior to this meeting MVPC gathered reviewed and summarized the most recent pertinent available information including crash data traffic volume data and traffic speed data In addition to the crash data summaries obtained from the MassDOTRMV Statewide database MVPC also collected the actual crash reports which show the narratives and crash diagrams from the Newburyport police and Massachusetts state police departments

With input and assistance from Newburyport officials MVPC selected the RSA team and chose to meet at the City Hall At the pre-audit meeting MVPC discussed the process and goals for the RSA provided handouts of all pertinent information presented the existing traffic speed and crash data and discussed any known related planned projects to the participants in order to provide an introduction to project The team then began to provide comments on the safety issues based on their knowledge of the intersection MVPC recorded the comments

Following the pre-audit meeting the team conducted a site visitaudit during which the previous specific safety issues and concerns were pointed out by the RSA team and MVPC Additional safety issues were identified at the site and recorded by MVPC

After the site visit the RSA participants met in a post-audit meeting and the group discussed potential countermeasures that had been identified during the RSA and any new countermeasures that could be thought of during the meeting The countermeasures which were recorded by MVPC included short-term intermediate-term and long-term improvements The State DOT was identified at this meeting as the owner of all roadways in this study area and therefore is the responsible party for the improvements and any necessary designs

Project Location and Description MVPC conducted an inventory of the existing ramp intersection geometry in May of 2012 Traffic volumes were collected by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin Inc (VHB) in April and May of 2010 prior to the increase in volumes along Storey Avenue due to the closing of the Hines Bridge over the Merrimack River for repairs Below is a detailed discussion of the interchange geometrics and traffic control features a discussion of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes a review of the crash data and an analysis of the existing operations As of this writing work is complete on the Hines Bridge

Geometrics and Traffic Control

Interstate Route 95

Interstate Route 95 (I-95) is part of the nationrsquos network of interstate highways and it runs approximately 1920 miles between Houlton Maine at the Canadian border to the north and the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami Florida to the south In the Northeast the I-95 corridor runs through some of the most densely developed and mature metropolitan areas of the country of which Boston is one of them Approximately 92 miles of the highway lies within Massachusetts traversing the state from Salisbury at the New Hampshire state line to Peabody then circumferentially around the Boston metropolitan area and finally from Canton to Attleboro at the Rhode Island state line North of Boston the highway which is owned and maintained by MassDOT serves interstate travelers as well as commuters traveling from northern suburbs to the Boston and employment centers surrounding the city

The highway provides four lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a center median from its interchange with Route 1 in Peabody to the south up to and through its interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport to the north Approximately 1500 feet north of the Storey Avenue ramps the highwayrsquos cross-section narrows It decreases from eight to six lanes as it is carried on the Whittier Bridge over the Merrimack River and then until it reaches the ramps for Interstate Route 495 in Salisbury to the north The Whittier Bridge is programmed to be reconstructed (Project 601096) beginning in the summer of 2013 with work expected to be completed by the summer of 2016 The bridge will be replaced with a wider cross-section of eight lanes The speed limit on Interstate Route 95 in the vicinity of Storey Avenue is posted at 65 miles per hour (mph)

Storey Avenue (Route 113)

Storey Avenue (Route 113) is an eastwest state owned roadway 18 miles in length which runs from the West Newbury town line at the Artichoke Reservoir crossing to the west to its intersection with Moseley and High Streets to the east Figure 1 presents a USGS map showing the audit site locus along Storey Avenue as it passes over Interstate Route 95 which is located at the approximate mid-point of the roadway The roadway which is functionally classified as an urban principal arterial widens from two lanes to four from the west as it approaches the ramps with Interstate Route 95 East of I-95 the four-lane Storey Avenue (Route 113) is designated as

being part of the National Highway System (NHS) of roads For eastbound travelers on Storey Avenue west of I-95 the speed limit is posted at 35 mph immediately east of Daniel Lucy Way East of I-95 it is also posted at 35 mph for eastbound travelers immediately east of Russell Terrace The speed limit for eastbound travelers is posted at 30 mph immediately west of Park Circle For westbound travelers the speed limit is posted at 35 mph immediately west of Park Circle and at 50 mph immediately west of Hoyts Lane These speed limits are consistent with the limits that are noted in Special Speed Regulation 578B for the City of Newburyport A speed limit 35 is not present for eastbound travelers passing by Hoyts Lane A speed limit 30 mph sign is not present for westbound travelers coming from High Street Land uses fronting the roadway are primarily residential west of I-95 and are primarily commercial retail east of I-95

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Background A Road Safety Audit (RSA) as defined by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is ldquothe formal safety performance examination of an existing or future road or intersection by an independent multidisciplinary teamrdquo An RSA qualitatively estimates and reports on all safety issues and identifies opportunities for safety improvements for all roadway users The ldquoconducting of RSAs at high-crash locations throughout the Commonwealthrdquo is one of the many strategies noted in the statersquos Strategic Highway Safety Plan which was developed in an effort to reduce the number of crash-related fatalities and incapacitating injuries on roadways within Massachusetts

The Interstate Route 95 ramps with Storey Avenue (Route 113) were identified by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission as being one of the top locations for crashes within the Merrimack Valley According to the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organizationrsquos (MPOrsquos) 2011 Regional Transportation Plan this location experienced a total of 59 crashes over a period of three years from 2006 to 2008 For the approximate 3462 locations within the Merrimack Valley that experienced crashes this location is ranked as being number 23 in terms of the overall crash frequency and number 21 in terms of Equivalent Property Damage Only

Because the Interstate Route 95 ramp intersection locations are within the top five percent of crash clusters in the Merrimack Valley region it is eligible for the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) MassDOT incorporated the RSA as a requirement for securing Federal funding (HSIP funds) for safety projects For these reasons this intersection was chosen as the site of an RSA by the Merrimack Valley MPO to help identify potential short-term and long-term safety improvements that could be made if HSIP funding is received

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Project Data The Road Safety Audit was conducted on November 19 2012 for Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps As shown in Table 1 the audit team was comprised of state regional and local agencies and included professionals from emergency response engineering and planning

Prior to this meeting MVPC gathered reviewed and summarized the most recent pertinent available information including crash data traffic volume data and traffic speed data In addition to the crash data summaries obtained from the MassDOTRMV Statewide database MVPC also collected the actual crash reports which show the narratives and crash diagrams from the Newburyport police and Massachusetts state police departments

With input and assistance from Newburyport officials MVPC selected the RSA team and chose to meet at the City Hall At the pre-audit meeting MVPC discussed the process and goals for the RSA provided handouts of all pertinent information presented the existing traffic speed and crash data and discussed any known related planned projects to the participants in order to provide an introduction to project The team then began to provide comments on the safety issues based on their knowledge of the intersection MVPC recorded the comments

Following the pre-audit meeting the team conducted a site visitaudit during which the previous specific safety issues and concerns were pointed out by the RSA team and MVPC Additional safety issues were identified at the site and recorded by MVPC

After the site visit the RSA participants met in a post-audit meeting and the group discussed potential countermeasures that had been identified during the RSA and any new countermeasures that could be thought of during the meeting The countermeasures which were recorded by MVPC included short-term intermediate-term and long-term improvements The State DOT was identified at this meeting as the owner of all roadways in this study area and therefore is the responsible party for the improvements and any necessary designs

Geometrics and Traffic Control

Interstate Route 95

Interstate Route 95 (I-95) is part of the nationrsquos network of interstate highways and it runs approximately 1920 miles between Houlton Maine at the Canadian border to the north and the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami Florida to the south In the Northeast the I-95 corridor runs through some of the most densely developed and mature metropolitan areas of the country of which Boston is one of them Approximately 92 miles of the highway lies within Massachusetts traversing the state from Salisbury at the New Hampshire state line to Peabody then circumferentially around the Boston metropolitan area and finally from Canton to Attleboro at the Rhode Island state line North of Boston the highway which is owned and maintained by MassDOT serves interstate travelers as well as commuters traveling from northern suburbs to the Boston and employment centers surrounding the city

The highway provides four lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a center median from its interchange with Route 1 in Peabody to the south up to and through its interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport to the north Approximately 1500 feet north of the Storey Avenue ramps the highwayrsquos cross-section narrows It decreases from eight to six lanes as it is carried on the Whittier Bridge over the Merrimack River and then until it reaches the ramps for Interstate Route 495 in Salisbury to the north The Whittier Bridge is programmed to be reconstructed (Project 601096) beginning in the summer of 2013 with work expected to be completed by the summer of 2016 The bridge will be replaced with a wider cross-section of eight lanes The speed limit on Interstate Route 95 in the vicinity of Storey Avenue is posted at 65 miles per hour (mph)

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

Page 6

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

aAverage Weekday Daily Traffic (AWDT) volume in vehicles per day (vpd) as counted by VHB bPeak hour traffic volume in vehicles per hour (vph) as presented in VHB reports cK-Factor is the percent of daily traffic occurring during the peak hour expressed as a percentage

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Background A Road Safety Audit (RSA) as defined by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) is ldquothe formal safety performance examination of an existing or future road or intersection by an independent multidisciplinary teamrdquo An RSA qualitatively estimates and reports on all safety issues and identifies opportunities for safety improvements for all roadway users The ldquoconducting of RSAs at high-crash locations throughout the Commonwealthrdquo is one of the many strategies noted in the statersquos Strategic Highway Safety Plan which was developed in an effort to reduce the number of crash-related fatalities and incapacitating injuries on roadways within Massachusetts

The Interstate Route 95 ramps with Storey Avenue (Route 113) were identified by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission as being one of the top locations for crashes within the Merrimack Valley According to the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organizationrsquos (MPOrsquos) 2011 Regional Transportation Plan this location experienced a total of 59 crashes over a period of three years from 2006 to 2008 For the approximate 3462 locations within the Merrimack Valley that experienced crashes this location is ranked as being number 23 in terms of the overall crash frequency and number 21 in terms of Equivalent Property Damage Only

Because the Interstate Route 95 ramp intersection locations are within the top five percent of crash clusters in the Merrimack Valley region it is eligible for the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) MassDOT incorporated the RSA as a requirement for securing Federal funding (HSIP funds) for safety projects For these reasons this intersection was chosen as the site of an RSA by the Merrimack Valley MPO to help identify potential short-term and long-term safety improvements that could be made if HSIP funding is received

Project Data The Road Safety Audit was conducted on November 19 2012 for Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps As shown in Table 1 the audit team was comprised of state regional and local agencies and included professionals from emergency response engineering and planning

Prior to this meeting MVPC gathered reviewed and summarized the most recent pertinent available information including crash data traffic volume data and traffic speed data In addition to the crash data summaries obtained from the MassDOTRMV Statewide database MVPC also collected the actual crash reports which show the narratives and crash diagrams from the Newburyport police and Massachusetts state police departments

With input and assistance from Newburyport officials MVPC selected the RSA team and chose to meet at the City Hall At the pre-audit meeting MVPC discussed the process and goals for the RSA provided handouts of all pertinent information presented the existing traffic speed and crash data and discussed any known related planned projects to the participants in order to provide an introduction to project The team then began to provide comments on the safety issues based on their knowledge of the intersection MVPC recorded the comments

Following the pre-audit meeting the team conducted a site visitaudit during which the previous specific safety issues and concerns were pointed out by the RSA team and MVPC Additional safety issues were identified at the site and recorded by MVPC

After the site visit the RSA participants met in a post-audit meeting and the group discussed potential countermeasures that had been identified during the RSA and any new countermeasures that could be thought of during the meeting The countermeasures which were recorded by MVPC included short-term intermediate-term and long-term improvements The State DOT was identified at this meeting as the owner of all roadways in this study area and therefore is the responsible party for the improvements and any necessary designs

Geometrics and Traffic Control

Interstate Route 95

Interstate Route 95 (I-95) is part of the nationrsquos network of interstate highways and it runs approximately 1920 miles between Houlton Maine at the Canadian border to the north and the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami Florida to the south In the Northeast the I-95 corridor runs through some of the most densely developed and mature metropolitan areas of the country of which Boston is one of them Approximately 92 miles of the highway lies within Massachusetts traversing the state from Salisbury at the New Hampshire state line to Peabody then circumferentially around the Boston metropolitan area and finally from Canton to Attleboro at the Rhode Island state line North of Boston the highway which is owned and maintained by MassDOT serves interstate travelers as well as commuters traveling from northern suburbs to the Boston and employment centers surrounding the city

The highway provides four lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a center median from its interchange with Route 1 in Peabody to the south up to and through its interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport to the north Approximately 1500 feet north of the Storey Avenue ramps the highwayrsquos cross-section narrows It decreases from eight to six lanes as it is carried on the Whittier Bridge over the Merrimack River and then until it reaches the ramps for Interstate Route 495 in Salisbury to the north The Whittier Bridge is programmed to be reconstructed (Project 601096) beginning in the summer of 2013 with work expected to be completed by the summer of 2016 The bridge will be replaced with a wider cross-section of eight lanes The speed limit on Interstate Route 95 in the vicinity of Storey Avenue is posted at 65 miles per hour (mph)

Storey Avenue (Route 113)

Storey Avenue (Route 113) is an eastwest state owned roadway 18 miles in length which runs from the West Newbury town line at the Artichoke Reservoir crossing to the west to its intersection with Moseley and High Streets to the east Figure 1 presents a USGS map showing the audit site locus along Storey Avenue as it passes over Interstate Route 95 which is located at the approximate mid-point of the roadway The roadway which is functionally classified as an urban principal arterial widens from two lanes to four from the west as it approaches the ramps with Interstate Route 95 East of I-95 the four-lane Storey Avenue (Route 113) is designated as

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

Page 6

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Summary of Road Safety Audit All of the safety issues and their potential safety enhancements were discussed in the previous section Table 8 provides a summary of the potential safety recommendations that were discussed by the audit team The recommendations are categorized in order of safety payoff with their associated cost time frame and responsible agency

Safety payoff estimates are subjective and may be based on the relative percent of crashes that may be reduced by the enhancement for example low (lt30) medium (31 to 70) and high (gt71) The time frame is categorized as short-term (lt1 year) mid-term (1 to 3 years) or long-term (gt3 years) The costs are categorized as low (lt$10000) medium ($10001 to $50000) or high (gt$50001)

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Project Data The Road Safety Audit was conducted on November 19 2012 for Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps As shown in Table 1 the audit team was comprised of state regional and local agencies and included professionals from emergency response engineering and planning

Prior to this meeting MVPC gathered reviewed and summarized the most recent pertinent available information including crash data traffic volume data and traffic speed data In addition to the crash data summaries obtained from the MassDOTRMV Statewide database MVPC also collected the actual crash reports which show the narratives and crash diagrams from the Newburyport police and Massachusetts state police departments

With input and assistance from Newburyport officials MVPC selected the RSA team and chose to meet at the City Hall At the pre-audit meeting MVPC discussed the process and goals for the RSA provided handouts of all pertinent information presented the existing traffic speed and crash data and discussed any known related planned projects to the participants in order to provide an introduction to project The team then began to provide comments on the safety issues based on their knowledge of the intersection MVPC recorded the comments

Following the pre-audit meeting the team conducted a site visitaudit during which the previous specific safety issues and concerns were pointed out by the RSA team and MVPC Additional safety issues were identified at the site and recorded by MVPC

After the site visit the RSA participants met in a post-audit meeting and the group discussed potential countermeasures that had been identified during the RSA and any new countermeasures that could be thought of during the meeting The countermeasures which were recorded by MVPC included short-term intermediate-term and long-term improvements The State DOT was identified at this meeting as the owner of all roadways in this study area and therefore is the responsible party for the improvements and any necessary designs

Project Location and Description MVPC conducted an inventory of the existing ramp intersection geometry in May of 2012 Traffic volumes were collected by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin Inc (VHB) in April and May of 2010 prior to the increase in volumes along Storey Avenue due to the closing of the Hines Bridge over the Merrimack River for repairs Below is a detailed discussion of the interchange geometrics and traffic control features a discussion of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes a review of the crash data and an analysis of the existing operations As of this writing work is complete on the Hines Bridge

Geometrics and Traffic Control

Interstate Route 95

Interstate Route 95 (I-95) is part of the nationrsquos network of interstate highways and it runs approximately 1920 miles between Houlton Maine at the Canadian border to the north and the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami Florida to the south In the Northeast the I-95 corridor runs through some of the most densely developed and mature metropolitan areas of the country of which Boston is one of them Approximately 92 miles of the highway lies within Massachusetts traversing the state from Salisbury at the New Hampshire state line to Peabody then circumferentially around the Boston metropolitan area and finally from Canton to Attleboro at the Rhode Island state line North of Boston the highway which is owned and maintained by MassDOT serves interstate travelers as well as commuters traveling from northern suburbs to the Boston and employment centers surrounding the city

The highway provides four lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a center median from its interchange with Route 1 in Peabody to the south up to and through its interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport to the north Approximately 1500 feet north of the Storey Avenue ramps the highwayrsquos cross-section narrows It decreases from eight to six lanes as it is carried on the Whittier Bridge over the Merrimack River and then until it reaches the ramps for Interstate Route 495 in Salisbury to the north The Whittier Bridge is programmed to be reconstructed (Project 601096) beginning in the summer of 2013 with work expected to be completed by the summer of 2016 The bridge will be replaced with a wider cross-section of eight lanes The speed limit on Interstate Route 95 in the vicinity of Storey Avenue is posted at 65 miles per hour (mph)

Storey Avenue (Route 113)

Storey Avenue (Route 113) is an eastwest state owned roadway 18 miles in length which runs from the West Newbury town line at the Artichoke Reservoir crossing to the west to its intersection with Moseley and High Streets to the east Figure 1 presents a USGS map showing the audit site locus along Storey Avenue as it passes over Interstate Route 95 which is located at the approximate mid-point of the roadway The roadway which is functionally classified as an urban principal arterial widens from two lanes to four from the west as it approaches the ramps with Interstate Route 95 East of I-95 the four-lane Storey Avenue (Route 113) is designated as

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

Page 6

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

aAverage Weekday Daily Traffic (AWDT) volume in vehicles per day (vpd) as counted by VHB bPeak hour traffic volume in vehicles per hour (vph) as presented in VHB reports cK-Factor is the percent of daily traffic occurring during the peak hour expressed as a percentage

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Project Location and Description MVPC conducted an inventory of the existing ramp intersection geometry in May of 2012 Traffic volumes were collected by Vanasse Hangen Brustlin Inc (VHB) in April and May of 2010 prior to the increase in volumes along Storey Avenue due to the closing of the Hines Bridge over the Merrimack River for repairs Below is a detailed discussion of the interchange geometrics and traffic control features a discussion of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes a review of the crash data and an analysis of the existing operations As of this writing work is complete on the Hines Bridge

Geometrics and Traffic Control

Interstate Route 95

Interstate Route 95 (I-95) is part of the nationrsquos network of interstate highways and it runs approximately 1920 miles between Houlton Maine at the Canadian border to the north and the Coconut Grove neighborhood of Miami Florida to the south In the Northeast the I-95 corridor runs through some of the most densely developed and mature metropolitan areas of the country of which Boston is one of them Approximately 92 miles of the highway lies within Massachusetts traversing the state from Salisbury at the New Hampshire state line to Peabody then circumferentially around the Boston metropolitan area and finally from Canton to Attleboro at the Rhode Island state line North of Boston the highway which is owned and maintained by MassDOT serves interstate travelers as well as commuters traveling from northern suburbs to the Boston and employment centers surrounding the city

The highway provides four lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a center median from its interchange with Route 1 in Peabody to the south up to and through its interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport to the north Approximately 1500 feet north of the Storey Avenue ramps the highwayrsquos cross-section narrows It decreases from eight to six lanes as it is carried on the Whittier Bridge over the Merrimack River and then until it reaches the ramps for Interstate Route 495 in Salisbury to the north The Whittier Bridge is programmed to be reconstructed (Project 601096) beginning in the summer of 2013 with work expected to be completed by the summer of 2016 The bridge will be replaced with a wider cross-section of eight lanes The speed limit on Interstate Route 95 in the vicinity of Storey Avenue is posted at 65 miles per hour (mph)

Storey Avenue (Route 113)

Storey Avenue (Route 113) is an eastwest state owned roadway 18 miles in length which runs from the West Newbury town line at the Artichoke Reservoir crossing to the west to its intersection with Moseley and High Streets to the east Figure 1 presents a USGS map showing the audit site locus along Storey Avenue as it passes over Interstate Route 95 which is located at the approximate mid-point of the roadway The roadway which is functionally classified as an urban principal arterial widens from two lanes to four from the west as it approaches the ramps with Interstate Route 95 East of I-95 the four-lane Storey Avenue (Route 113) is designated as

being part of the National Highway System (NHS) of roads For eastbound travelers on Storey Avenue west of I-95 the speed limit is posted at 35 mph immediately east of Daniel Lucy Way East of I-95 it is also posted at 35 mph for eastbound travelers immediately east of Russell Terrace The speed limit for eastbound travelers is posted at 30 mph immediately west of Park Circle For westbound travelers the speed limit is posted at 35 mph immediately west of Park Circle and at 50 mph immediately west of Hoyts Lane These speed limits are consistent with the limits that are noted in Special Speed Regulation 578B for the City of Newburyport A speed limit 35 is not present for eastbound travelers passing by Hoyts Lane A speed limit 30 mph sign is not present for westbound travelers coming from High Street Land uses fronting the roadway are primarily residential west of I-95 and are primarily commercial retail east of I-95

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

Page 6

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 ramps

Interstate Route 95 was originally constructed in the early 1950s and it had an interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) in Newburyport in a full cloverleaf style ramp system In the mid 1970s Interstate Route 95 was reconstructed and its alignment was shifted slightly to the west and a new interchange was constructed with Storey Avenue to its present more compact slip ramp style configuration as presented in the aerial photograph of Figure 2 The City of Newburyport and the Essex National Heritage Area maintain the ldquoLittle River Nature Trailrdquo along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp and the old Interstate Route 95 alignment that is partially paved MassDOT has a driveway to its commuter Park and Ride lot along the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp

Through the Interstate Route 95 ramp system Storey Avenue carries two lanes of travel per direction that are separated by a raised center median island The center median extends to the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection which is located approximately 485 feet east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection is located approximately 880 feet west of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound and southbound ramp intersections as well as the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection are all signalized and the traffic signal controllers are interconnected with one another along Storey Avenue The signals run in coordinated operation on a 100 second cycle during the weekday morning commuter peak period and a 90 second cycle during the weekday evening commuter peak period Clearance intervals between signal phases for all of the signals are 3 seconds of yellow and 2 seconds of all-red time

Of interesting note is the fact that the travel distance along Storey Avenue varies by direction between the northbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway intersection The distance between STOP lines at the signalized intersections is approximately 455 feet in the westbound direction and approximately 510 feet in the eastbound direction Therefore it takes approximately one second more to travel in the eastbound direction and clear the intersection than it does in the westbound direction for vehicles traveling at free flow speeds

Passing the ramps along Storey Avenue there generally is a distance of approximately eight feet between the solid white travel edge lines and the curbing

Sidewalks approximately five feet in width are provided along both sides of Storey Avenue The sidewalks have a bituminous concrete surface except for a 300 foot section carried on the bridge over the interstate highway which has a cement concrete surface The sidewalks are in good condition There are no crosswalks painted across the ramps or Storey Avenue A crosswalk 7 feet in width is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps

Traffic originating from or destined to the downtown side of Storey Avenue to the east can access or egress Interstate Route 95 southbound by an on- and off-ramp that are opposite one another and offset from one another (by approximately 50 feet) The traffic going onto or off of one of these ramps is under signalized traffic control There are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection and one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length on the westbound approach for vehicles wishing to access the on-ramp The Interstate Route 95 southbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 130 feet from Storey Avenue by a delta shaped island into one exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane and two exclusive left-turn lanes that meet Storey Avenue perpendicularly Traffic in the right-turn lane onto Storey Avenue westbound is under YIELD-sign control while traffic in the two side-by-side left-turn lanes which are a minimum of 13-feet in width is under signal control Lane line extension pavement markings guide the traffic in the two left-turn lanes through the intersection Traffic heading eastbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 100 feet behind the STOP line (and traffic signal control) by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

aAverage Weekday Daily Traffic (AWDT) volume in vehicles per day (vpd) as counted by VHB bPeak hour traffic volume in vehicles per hour (vph) as presented in VHB reports cK-Factor is the percent of daily traffic occurring during the peak hour expressed as a percentage

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and as mentioned previously is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection During commuter peak periods this controller operates as part of a coordinated system on a 90- to 100-second signal cycle in three phases with all phases called Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports and seven signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

The geometric configuration and traffic control of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection is nearly identical and a mirror reflection of the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection Like the southbound ramp intersection there are two 12-foot wide travel lanes in each direction of Storey Avenue at this intersection Because this intersection is a reflection of the southbound ramp intersection on the eastbound rather than westbound approach there is also one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane which is approximately 515 feet in length and which is provided for vehicles wishing to access the northbound on-ramp Traffic that enters this on-ramp or leaves the off-ramp which is opposite the on-ramp and slightly offset from it is under signal control

One of the other differences between this ramp intersection and the southbound one is that the portion of the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp for left-turning vehicles has only a single left-turn lane rather than two This lane is a minimum of 15-feet wide Another difference is the traffic in the right-turn lane of the off-ramp is under STOP sign control rather than YIELD-sign control

The traffic islands at the ramps of this intersection are slightly larger than the islands at the southbound ramp intersection The Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp splits at its base approximately 200 feet from Storey Avenue rather than 130 feet by its delta shaped island into the exclusive left-turn off-ramp lane and the exclusive right-turn off-ramp lane Traffic heading westbound on Storey Avenue and destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound is channelized onto the on-ramp approximately 120 feet behind the STOP line rather than 100 feet by a large delta shaped traffic island

The traffic signal controller for the intersection is interconnected with the controllers at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the commuter Park and Ride lot intersection and runs in coordinated operation during commuter peak periods Like the southbound ramp intersection four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 30-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports It should be noted that one of the signal heads for westbound traffic is slightly rotated and does not face through traffic directly Four more signal heads are supported on three 10-foot tall signal posts at the intersection two of which are on the center median island tips Emergency vehicle preemption beacons sit on top of the mast arms

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Summary of Road Safety Audit All of the safety issues and their potential safety enhancements were discussed in the previous section Table 8 provides a summary of the potential safety recommendations that were discussed by the audit team The recommendations are categorized in order of safety payoff with their associated cost time frame and responsible agency

Safety payoff estimates are subjective and may be based on the relative percent of crashes that may be reduced by the enhancement for example low (lt30) medium (31 to 70) and high (gt71) The time frame is categorized as short-term (lt1 year) mid-term (1 to 3 years) or long-term (gt3 years) The costs are categorized as low (lt$10000) medium ($10001 to $50000) or high (gt$50001)

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Commuter Park and Ride Lot

MassDOT maintains a parking lot with approximately 615 marked parking spaces immediately east of the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp People will park their vehicles in this lot and use one of two private bus coach carriers to either commute to Boston or travel to Logan Airport Camp J operates the lot and provides approximately 30 inbound and 30 outbound weekday bus trips daily tofrom downtown and the airport The Coach Company provides approximately 6 inbound and 6 outbound daily bus trips tofrom downtown Boston Parking is free and is allowed overnight for a maximum of 21 days Observations showed that this lot sees good use and on many occasions is over capacity with the staff of one of the coach companies moving the overflow cars in a ldquovaletrdquo style parking to unmarked spaces

The driveway for the parking lot uses the alignment of the old Interstate Route 95 northbound on-ramp and it meets Storey Avenue from the north to form a three-way signalized intersection Storey Avenue has two 12-foot wide travel lanes per direction and a 130 foot long 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane for vehicles entering the lot from the Interstate 95 ramps and Storey Avenue to the west The left turn lane is protected from vehicles traveling in the opposite direction by a raised center median strip that is covered in bituminous concrete The center median island continues on the east side of the intersection for another 200 feet where it terminates and a short center two way left turn lane begins for nearby Russell Terrace and the Mobil gas station Traffic exiting the lot and using the driveway can use one 12-foot wide exclusive left-turn lane or one 10-foot wide exclusive right-turn lane Traffic flow direction is separated on the driveway by a 100-foot long 5-foot wide raised center median island

A crosswalk is painted across the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway but not across Storey Avenue

The traffic signal controller for the intersection operates under full actuation and generally rests on green for the Storey Avenue through traffic and will call a phase for Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane (entering the parking lot) and for the lot driveway (exiting the parking lot) when traffic is present This signal controller is interconnected with the controller at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection and during commuter peak periods it runs in coordinated operation Four traffic signal heads are affixed to two 35-foot long mast arms with 20-foot tall supports with two facing each direction of travel for through traffic Two signal heads are supported on two 10-foot tall signal posts on the south side of Storey Avenue opposite the lot driveway and both heads face the driveway There is one signal head supported on a 10-foot tall signal post that is located at the end of the center median island east of the driveway and the head faces the Storey Avenue eastbound left-turn lane Beacons for emergency vehicle preemption of the signal also sit on top of the mast arms at this intersection

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Traffic Volumes

Traffic volume data used in this study was gathered in April and May of 2010 by VHB for the Hines bridge closing study (prior to its closing) Turning movement and vehicle classification counts (TMCs) were conducted at the Storey Avenue signalized intersections at and near the I-95 ramps during the weekday morning and evening commuter peak periods Additionally an automatic traffic recorder (ATR) was placed by VHB on Storey Avenue (Route 113) east of Low Street Table 2 presents a summary of the daily and peak hour traffic volumes on roadways at the intersection

aAverage Weekday Daily Traffic (AWDT) volume in vehicles per day (vpd) as counted by VHB bPeak hour traffic volume in vehicles per hour (vph) as presented in VHB reports cK-Factor is the percent of daily traffic occurring during the peak hour expressed as a percentage

As shown in Table 2 there are approximately 15800 vehicles per day (vpd) on Route 113 immediately east of Low Street West of Low Street the daily volume is much greater as much of the traffic volume traveling to and from Low Street is originating from or destined to the Storey Avenue and its interchange with Interstate Route 95

Traffic flow on Storey Avenue (Route 113) predominates heavily in the eastbound direction during the weekday morning peak hour and in the westbound direction during the weekday evening peak hour as shown in Table 2 This directional distribution is a good indication of the importance of downtown Newburyport and the Storey Avenue corridor as an employment center

Figure 3 presents the weekday morning and evening peak hour turning movement volumes As shown in Figure 3 for the approximate 1119 vehicle-trips destined to Storey Avenue to the east during the weekday morning peak hour approximately 20 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the south and approximately 46 percent originate from Interstate Route 95 to the north The inverse is true during the weekday evening peak hour with approximately 46 percent of the 1241 peak hour westbound trips destined to Interstate Route 95 northbound and approximately 20 percent destined to Interstate Route 95 southbound

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Crash History

Historical traffic crash data was obtained for the study intersection from MassDOTrsquos statewide crash database that was built with crash reports filed by police officers and vehicle operators between 2008 and 2010 and sent to the Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) That data was supplemented with data from the actual crash reports during that same period that were obtained from the Newburyport Police Department and the Massachusetts State Police Department The data was reviewed over this three-year period to determine crash trends for the intersection Table 3 presents a summary of the crash report data

According to the review of the data there were a total of sixty-six (66) crashes over the three-year period occurring at the Interstate Route 95 ramp system interchange with Storey Avenue (Route 113) or an average of approximately twenty-two (22) per year

Not only was the whole ramp system looked at collectively but the intersections of the ramp system were looked at discretely The location where the greatest number of crashes occurred is the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps which experienced 28 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue with the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp signalized intersection which experienced 21 crashes followed by the Storey Avenue signalized intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway which experienced 14 crashes

The most predominant types of collisions occurring at the three signalized intersections were rear-end type which is a collision type typical for signalized intersections Approximately one half to three quarters of the collisions at those three signalized intersections were rear-end type collisions

Page 11

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

For those rear-end type collisions at the three signalized intersections where the location and direction of travel is known from the police reports there were a total of twenty-four crashes twelve occurring on Storey Avenue and twelve occurring on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramps as shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix

All but one of the twelve rear-end collisions on Storey Avenue occurred in the westbound direction Seven of the eleven westbound rear-end collisions occurred at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection and four occurred at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp intersection

Of the total twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes nine occurred at the northbound ramp and three occurred at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether a citation was issued or not For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

There appears to be a relatively high percentage of collisions resulting in personal injury perhaps due to the travel speeds on Storey Avenue Approximately 50 percent of the crashes at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection resulted in personal injury for an Equivalent Property Damage Only (EPDO) rating of 42 Approximately 29 percent and 18 percent of the crashes at the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections respectively resulted in personal injury The EPDO ratings for the Interstate Route 95 southbound and northbound ramp intersections are 45 and 48 respectively Referring to the collision diagrams within the Appendix for the three signalized intersections one will see that for the eighteen collisions that resulted in personal injury most are the result of rear-end collisions Only four are the result of angle-type collisions between two vehicles two are the result of a single vehicle running off of the road and one is the result of a vehicle striking a pedestrian

More crashes occur after noon than in the morning especially at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramp intersection and the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection however most (approximately 80 percent) occurred during daylight hours Approximately two-thirds of the crashes involved vehicles traveling on dry roads

There was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian at the Storey Avenue (Route 113) intersection with the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway The collision occurred in the dark at 418 in the morning with the pedestrian heading to the commuter lot and being struck by a westbound traveling vehicle

To get an idea of the relative safety of locations the number of crashes at the intersection locations for the intersections at and near the Interstate Route 95 ramps were also reviewed against traffic volumes using those locations and then compared to the rate of crashes for other similar type facilities MassDOT reports that for the year 2011 the latest year available there are a statewide average rate of 081 crashes per million entering vehicles (mev) and a MassDOT District 4 average rate of 078 crashes per mev for signalized intersections Table 4 presents a

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Operations Analysis

The operation of the signalized intersections of Storey Avenue (Route 113) with the I-95 southbound ramps with the I-95 northbound ramps and with the Park and Ride Commuter lot driveway intersection were analyzed by VHB in its study with the SYNHRO micro simulation computer model which follows the methodology presented in the Transportation Research Boardrsquos (TRBrsquos) latest Highway Capacity Manual1 A summary of the methodology can be found in the Appendix of this study

Existing Conditions

Table 5 presents the analysis results for the existing operations of the signalized intersection of Storey Avenue (Route 113) at the Interstate Route 95 southbound ramps Operations analysis sheets are provided in the Appendix of this study

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

As shown in Table 7 this signalized intersection operates overall well within capacity at LOS A during both the weekday morning and evening commuter peak hours Through traffic on the Route 113 approaches operates with little delay at LOS A during both peak hours as well However the maximum (95th percentile) vehicle queue for the two westbound through lanes is approximately eleven vehicles long and it occurs during the weekday evening peak hour Traffic turning left into the Park and Ride Commuter lot operates at LOS C during the weekday morning peak hour and at LOS D during the weekday evening peak hour There are no more than two vehicles at one time waiting in the left-turn lane Traffic turning from the Park and Ride Commuter Lot driveway operates at LOS D during the weekday morning and evening peak hours The maximum number of vehicles stacked on the driveway is two vehicles

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

Page 18

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Page 19

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Audit Observations and Potential Safety Enhancements The RSA team identified safety issues at the pre-meeting and also out at the audit site Potential safety enhancements were discussed out at the site and at the post audit meeting Following is a summary of the identified safety issues and the potential safety enhancements

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped ndash As shown in the collision diagrams within the Appendix there were at least a total of twelve rear-end type collisions that occurred at the Storey Avenue terminals of the two Interstate Route 95 right turn off-ramp lanes with nine occurring at the northbound ramp and three at the southbound ramp For ten of the twelve collisions it is known whether or not a citation was issued For four of those ten a citation was issued by the responding police officer for the driver of the trailing vehicle for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo Three citations were issued at the I-95 northbound off-ramp and one at the southbound off-ramp

It was noticed at the audit that some drivers of vehicles on the ramps turn their heads and begin observing traffic on Storey Avenue before the vehicle ahead of them departs the ramp Some of the vehicles advance without the drivers returning their heads to check on the vehicle in front of them Should the leading vehicle be stopped while this is happening the result may be a rear-end collision In at least three of the state police crash reports (I-95 northbound ramp crash numbers 11 14 and 18) within the Appendix the responding officers reported from their interviews that the trailing vehicle operator had thought that the leading vehicle operator had driven away

While this driver behavior is hard to control the audit team recommended some safety enhancements to either remind drivers of the existing traffic control in place or to provide alternative measures of traffic control In the short-term it was recommended that advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) warning signs be posted just on the portion of the ramps where that traffic control exists This will let drivers on the ramps know of the upcoming STOP or YIELD signs located at the ramp terminals and remind them of the need to stop or yield at those locations The placement of the advanced

Page 17

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

STOP and YIELD ahead (W3-1 or W3-2) warning signs should be carefully evaluated Because the primary traffic control of the intersections are the traffic signals the W3-1 or W3-2 signs must be placed in a way so drivers on the ramps approaching the signals do not get the wrong message The signs should be placed after the gore striping of the delta island where the ramp splits but at least 100 feet prior to the control signs so only the vehicles approaching the STOP or YIELD signs view the W3-1 or W3-2 signs The signs should be posted on both sides of the ramp to increase attention of the drivers

In the mid-term it was recommended that MassDOT incorporate the traffic on the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control This will involve the addition of two new signal heads facing each of the right-turn ramps with the signal heads tied into the traffic signal control boxes At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line ndash The police officials at the audit noted that some people roll past the STOP sign and over the STOP line on the Interstate Route 95 northbound off-ramp while others do not Should someone who rolls past the STOP sign be behind someone who stops at the STOP sign then a rear-end collision may result As noted before 75 percent of the rear-end collisions occurring at the two Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right turn lanes occur at the northbound ramp where the STOP sign is located Approximately 40 percent of those collisions resulted in the driver of the trailing vehicle being issued a citation by the responding police officer for ldquofailing to use care to stoprdquo In the short-term it was recommended that MassDOT affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs at the end of the ramp This should further increase the visibility of the signs As recommended before MassDOT should appropriately place advance STOP ahead (MUTCD W3-1) signs on the ramp to give advance notice of the STOP signs Perhaps the best way to remove this safety issue as mentioned before is to incorporate the ramp right turn lane into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control which could be done in the mid-term Two new signal heads will have to be added and face the right-turn ramp At each of the ramps there could perhaps be one signal head supported

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

Page 20

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

by a post or mast arm assembly on the right side of the ramp at its end and one signal head supported on a post on the Storey Avenue center median island opposite the ramp Alternatively in the long-term it was recommended that the ramp right-turning vehicles be ldquosquared offrdquo by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack and including them in the traffic signal control The existing portion of the ramps where the right-turning vehicles currently stack will be removed Additionally the portion of the ramp where left-turning vehicles presently stack should be widened to accommodate both a left-turn lane and a right-turn lane Traffic signal heads with green and yellow right-turn arrow faces should also be added

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction ndash It was noticed during the audit that there is older signal equipment at the two Interstate Route 95 ramp intersections The signal heads are not very conspicuous for a couple of reasons which may result in some westbound traveling vehicles noticing a green or red signal indication and others not resulting in rear-end collisions One of the reasons for westbound travelers not seeing the signal heads in the westbound direction is because of the afternoon sun glare partially washing out the indications on the signal faces It was also noticed that one of the signal heads at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp is rotated and not directly facing westbound traffic Firstly the misaligned signal head should rotated on the mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic The audit participants recommended placing backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings to increase their visibility at the ramp intersections It was stated that perhaps moment calculations may need to be done to find out whether the existing mast arm supports can handle the additional wind load from these backplates prior to their installation It was further recommended that an additional signal head be placed on the existing far side center median post to face

westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps This signal head will supplement the two signal heads that are supported on the mast arm thereby increasing the visibility of the green and red indications The Cityrsquos engineer recommended in the long-term that the geometry of the I-95 NB ramp intersection be reconfigured to extend the median westward some 20 to 40 feet and move the westbound STOP bar

up This will draw stopped westbound drivers closer to the signal heads for better visibility

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot ndash Audit participants expressed some concern for the drivers of vehicles heading westbound on Storey Avenue and stopped at a red light at the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection Some of those drivers will notice a green light at the next intersection downstream (Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp) and proceed while a red light indication still glows for the Park and Ride lot driveway intersection This has the potential for resulting in some rear-end collisions To keep drivers from noticing the downstream signal green indications while red indications glow at the Park and Ride

lot driveway intersection audit participants recommended installing some technology so that the signal faces on signal heads will focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp only The preferential technology mentioned was horizontal louvers on the green signal faces to focus the green on the westbound direction near the ramp Alternatively optically programmed signal faces could be used to focus the green indications on the drivers as they

near the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot ndash During the three-year study period there was one collision between a vehicle and a pedestrian who was attempting to cross Storey Avenue to get to the Park and Ride lot early in the morning before sunrise The pedestrian was struck by a westbound traveling vehicle shortly after stepping off of the center median island between the Park and Ride lot driveway and the Mobil gas station The pedestrian sustained injuries Audit participants noticed that while there is a crosswalk across the Park and Ride lot driveway there is no marked crosswalk across Storey Avenue for pedestrian use at this location This Park and Ride lot intersection is a place where pedestrians from nearby residential developments like Russell Terrace cross to access the commuter bus service provided at the Park and Ride lot It is also a location City officials noted where a future bike trail known as the Whittier trail will come from the

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Summary of Road Safety Audit All of the safety issues and their potential safety enhancements were discussed in the previous section Table 8 provides a summary of the potential safety recommendations that were discussed by the audit team The recommendations are categorized in order of safety payoff with their associated cost time frame and responsible agency

Safety payoff estimates are subjective and may be based on the relative percent of crashes that may be reduced by the enhancement for example low (lt30) medium (31 to 70) and high (gt71) The time frame is categorized as short-term (lt1 year) mid-term (1 to 3 years) or long-term (gt3 years) The costs are categorized as low (lt$10000) medium ($10001 to $50000) or high (gt$50001)

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

north to meet the existing Little River nature trail to the south across Storey Avenue Coupled with this future intersection of walkingbiking trails is the future housing that is

presently being built on an extension of Russell Terrace It is therefore anticipated that there will be even more pedestrian crossings in the future It was recommended that a crosswalk be provided across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps at each end that are well lit by nearby street lighting There should also be new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are located at each ramp and are tied into the traffic signal controller The crosswalk should be painted across Storey

Avenue east of the Park and Ride lot driveway with a refuge area for pedestrians halfway across on the center median island This will require that pedestrian ramps are constructed on the median

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways ndash It was noted immediately prior to the site walk that there are many curb cuts for commercial uses along Storey Avenue east of the commuter Park and Ride lot driveway Traffic turning into and out of these curb cuts causes some friction to traffic traveling through on Storey Avenue Audit participants thought that the section of the Storey Avenue corridor where these curb cuts exist should be examined in further detail with some possible recommendations for improving safety The recommendation therefore was to place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park and Ride lot and Low Street It was further recommended that the Merrimack Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization charge its planning staff with this task

Summary of Road Safety Audit All of the safety issues and their potential safety enhancements were discussed in the previous section Table 8 provides a summary of the potential safety recommendations that were discussed by the audit team The recommendations are categorized in order of safety payoff with their associated cost time frame and responsible agency

Safety payoff estimates are subjective and may be based on the relative percent of crashes that may be reduced by the enhancement for example low (lt30) medium (31 to 70) and high (gt71) The time frame is categorized as short-term (lt1 year) mid-term (1 to 3 years) or long-term (gt3 years) The costs are categorized as low (lt$10000) medium ($10001 to $50000) or high (gt$50001)

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Road Safety Audit mdash Storey Ave (Route 113) at Interstate Route 95 interchange ndash Newburyport MA Prepared by the Merrimack Valley Planning Commission

Summary of Road Safety Audit All of the safety issues and their potential safety enhancements were discussed in the previous section Table 8 provides a summary of the potential safety recommendations that were discussed by the audit team The recommendations are categorized in order of safety payoff with their associated cost time frame and responsible agency

Safety payoff estimates are subjective and may be based on the relative percent of crashes that may be reduced by the enhancement for example low (lt30) medium (31 to 70) and high (gt71) The time frame is categorized as short-term (lt1 year) mid-term (1 to 3 years) or long-term (gt3 years) The costs are categorized as low (lt$10000) medium ($10001 to $50000) or high (gt$50001)

Agency

Drivers of the trailing vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 off-ramp right-turn lanes are sometimes inattentive to the leading vehicles that are stopped

Post advance STOP and YIELD ahead (MUTCD W3-1 and W3-2) signs on the ramps (1)

Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

Incorporate the ramp right turn lanes into the intersectionsrsquo traffic signal control (2)

High Mid-Term Medium MassDOT

ldquoSquare offrdquo ramp right-turning vehicles by placing them where the left-turning vehicles presently stack (Modify signal control) (3)

High Long-Term Medium MassDOT

Drivers of vehicles on the Interstate Route 95 NB off-ramp right-turn lane sometimes treat the STOP signs as YIELD signs and roll through the STOP line

Affix visibility strips on the posts of the STOP signs in the area Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

High Long-Term Medium MassDOT

Lack of visibility of signal heads facing Storey Avenue traffic particularly in the westbound direction (with afternoon sun glare as one of the causes)

Rotate misaligned signal head on mast arm support to properly face westbound traffic

Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

Place backplates on the signal heads with retroreflective markings Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

Place an additional signal head on the median post to face westbound traffic at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramps

Low Mid-Term Low MassDOT

Reconfigure the I-95 NB ramp intersection geometry to extend the median and move the westbound STOP bar up

Low Long-Term Medium MassDOT

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot

Install louvers or opaque signal faces (or some other technology) on signal heads to focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot

Provide a crosswalk across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps and street lighting and new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are tied into the traffic signal controller

Medium Long-Term Low MassDOT

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways

Place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park And Ride lot and Low Street

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Low Long-Term Medium MassDOT

Westbound travelers view green light at I-95NB ramp and proceed through a red light at the Park amp Ride Lot

Install louvers or opaque signal faces (or some other technology) on signal heads to focus green indications on westbound drivers at the Interstate Route 95 northbound ramp

Low Short-Term Low MassDOT

Lack of pedestrian crossing across Storey Avenue near the Park and Ride lot

Provide a crosswalk across Storey Avenue with sidewalk ramps and street lighting and new push-button actuated pedestrian signal heads that are tied into the traffic signal controller

Medium Long-Term Low MassDOT

Friction created by traffic turning into and out of the many corridor driveways

Place Storey Avenue corridor under study to consider how to manage the vehicular access and egress from the multiple developments between the Park And Ride lot and Low Street

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections

Appendix F Intersection Operations Analysis Methodology and Results

OPERATIONS ANALYSIS METHODOLOGY

Level of Service

A primary result of capacity analyses is the assignment of level of service to traffic facilities under various traffic flow conditions Level of service is a qualitative measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream and the perception of these conditions by motorists andor passengers A level of service definition provides an index to the quality of traffic flow in terms of such factors as speed travel time freedom to maneuver traffic interruptions comfort convenience and safety

Six levels of service are defined for each type of facility They are given letter designations from A to F with level-of-service (LOS) A representing the best operating conditions and LOS F representing the worst

Since the level of service of a traffic facility is a function of the traffic flows placed upon it such a facility may operate at a wide range of levels of service depending on the time of day day of week or period of year

Signalized Intersections

The six levels of service for signalized intersections may be described as follows

LOS A describes operations with very small delay most vehicles do not stop at all

LOS B describes operations with relatively small delay however more vehicles stop than LOS A

LOS C describes operations with higher delays Individual cycle failures may begin to appear in this level The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level although many still pass through the intersection without stopping

LOS D describes operations with delay in the range where the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable Many vehicles stop and individual cycle failures are noticeable

LOS E describes operations with high delay values Individual cycle failures are frequent occurrences

LOS F describes operations with high delay values that often occur with over-saturation Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contributing causes to such delay levels

Evaluation Criteria

Evaluation criteria used in the capacity analyses are described below

Signalized Intersections

Levels of service for signalized intersections are calculated using the operational analysis methodology of the latest Highway Capacity Manual The capacity analyses for these facilities measures the average delay to drivers from signal control This method assesses the effect of signal type timing phasing progression vehicle mix and geometrics on delay Level-of-service designations are based solely on the criterion of calculated control delay also known as signal delay Control delay includes the initial deceleration delay queue move-up time stopped delay and final acceleration delay Delay can also be a measure of driver discomfort frustration fuel consumption and increased travel time Table A-1 summarizes the relationship between level of service and delay The tabulated delay criterion may be applied in assigning LOS designations to individual lane groups intersection approaches or to entire intersections
