The Mansions at Acqualina <br />Transportation Impact Study <br /> <br />Page 13 <br />4.3 Project Trip Generation <br />Trip generation for the proposed project was estimated using the Institute of Transportation <br />Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation manual, 8th Edition. This manual provides gross trip generation <br />rates and/or equations by land use type. These rates and equations estimate vehicle trip ends at a <br />free-standing site’s driveways. The project trip generation summary is provided in Exhibit 8. The <br />ITE trip generation worksheet is provided in Appendix D. <br /> <br /> <br />Exhibit 8 <br />Project Trip Generation Summary <br />Land Use Intensity AM Peak Hour PM Peak Hour <br />In Out Total In Out Total <br />Condominium 85 DUs 8 38 46 35 17 52 <br /> Source: David Plummer & Associates <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />4.4 Project Trip Assignment <br />Project traffic was distributed and assigned to the study area using the Cardinal Distribution for <br />TAZ 591 shown in Exhibit 9. The Cardinal Distribution gives a generalized distribution of trips <br />from a TAZ to other parts of Miami-Dade County. For estimating trip distribution for the project <br />traffic, consideration was given to conditions such as the roadway network accessed by the project <br />traffic, roadways available to travel in the desired direction, and attractiveness of traveling on a <br />specific roadway. The project trip assignment is graphically portrayed in Exhibit 10. <br />
