Re: Ransom Everglades School- Traffic Engineering Evaluation

Dear Amy:

Per your request, Traf Tech Engineering, Inc. conducted a traffic statement associated with the existing Ransom Everglades School (Upper School Campus) located offofMain Highway in , Miami-Dade County, Florida. The traffic statement has been prepared in connection with an application for a Special Area Plan for the subject educational facility. The study addresses trip generation and traffic circulation for the existing and proposed site plan configurations. The proposed modifications to the existing conditions provide improved parking and more-efficient internal circulation during the critical drop-off and pick-up peak periods.

Tdp Generation

A trip generation comparison analysis was perfonned using the trip generation rates published in the Institute of Transportation Engineer's (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (9th Edition). The trip generation comparison analysis was undertaken for daily, AM peak hour, and PM peak hour conditions. The analysis was based on the following assumptions:

EXISTING LAND USE AND INTENSITY

o High School (608 students)

PROPOSED LAND USE AND INTENSITY

o High School (608 students)

According to lTE's Trip Generation Manual (9th Edition), the trip generation rates used for the existing and proposed land uses are:

PRIVATE SCHOOL ([TE Land Use 536) Daily Trip Generation T= 2.48 (X) Where T = number of daily trips X = number of students

8400 North University Drive, Suite 309. Tamarac, Florida 33321 Tel: (954) 582-0988 Fax: (954) 582-0989 G.1 TralTech ENGINEERING, INC.

AM Peak Hour T = 0.81 (X)(61% inbound and 39% outbound) Where T = number of AM peak hour trips X = number of students

PM Peak Hour o/Generator (School's Exiting Peak Hour) T = 0.58 (X) (42% inbound and 58% outbound) Where T = n urn ber of PM peak hour trips X = number of students

Using the above-listed rates from the ITE document, a trip generation comparison analysis was undertaken between the existing and proposed land uses. The results of the trip generation comparison analysis between the existing and proposed uses are documented in Table I.

I Difference 0 I 0 o o SOl/rce: ITE Trip Generation Manllal (9,), Edition)

As indicated in Table I, the proposed modifications to the school will not create any additional trips to the surrounding street system.

Internal Site Circulation

The current internal circulation of the Ransom Everglades School is depicted in Figure I. As shown in Figure 1, the school currently has two drop-offlpick-up areas. The total number of school vehicles that can drop-off/pick-up students at the same time is approximately 4 to 5 cars between the two areas. The current internal circulation presents several less-than-desirable tmffic issues as illustrated in Figure I. These traffic issues are outlined below:

o Two pedestrian-vehicle contlict areas.

2

G.1 TralTach ENGINEERING, INC.

o The internal circulation uses parking aisles and thereby creates potential conflicts between circulating vehicles and vehicles wishing to park/un-park.

o One point of merge condition between two exiting traffic streams.

o One point of potential traffic blockage. That is, when vehicle queues associated with the drop-off/pick-up area I extend pass the diverge point shown in the figure, vehicles wishing to access the drop-off/pick-up area 2 cannot do so due to stopped vehicles.

The modified internal circulation for the school is presented in Figure 2. As illustmted in the figure, the drop-offlpick-up areas can accommodate up to 60% more vehicles than the current conditions. Therefore, the drop-off/pick-up operation associated with the modified plan will be significantly more efficient than current conditions. Moreover, the modified plan does not have conflicts between parked vehicles and circulating tmffic or pedestrians and circulating vehicles. No merge conditIon or areas of potential traffic blockage are provided with the modified plan.

[n summary, the proposed changes to the internal traffic circulation and parking areas of the existing Ransom Everglades School result in no increase in tmffic impacts, improved on-site efficiency during the critical drop-off and pick-up peak periods, and improves on­ site safety from both pedestrian (students) and vehicular standpoints.

Please give me a call if you have any questions.

Re: Ransom Everglades School- Response to Traffic Comments

Dear Amy:

Traf Tech Engineering, Inc. is pleased to address the following comments provided by the City of Miami in connection with the Ransom Everglades School:

o Please provide a queue analysis for the proposed drop-off/pick-up locations

o Consider providing an existing parking utilization analysis to demonstrate that the reduced availability would not result in an increase drop-off/pick-up traffic

o Please provide detailed operational plan for drop-off/pick-up to include the proposed access on Royal Road

Queuing Analysis

As indicated in the January 8, 2014 traffic engineering evaluation report prepared by Traf Tech Engineering, Inc., the drop-off/pick-up areas can accommodate approximately 60% more vehicles than the current conditions. This will result in less queuing than the existing conditions during the peak traffic periods. Moreover, the proposed site plan eliminates numerous conflict points making the drop-off and pick-up operation more efficient, thereby reducing the traffic queues. As documented in the subsequent "Parking Impacts" Section of this letter report, approximately 58 additional students will be required to park off site which would reduce the number of vehicles arriving at the school site during the critica I school's peak periods and thereby, reducing further the traffic queues.

Parking Impacts

Currently, the school has more parking spaces on campus than required by Code. There are 268 parking spaces on site. The 268 parking spaces are broken down as follows:

o 15 parking spaces for vis itors o 126 parking spaces for faculty and staff o 127 parking spaces for students

Additionally, approximately 100 junior students park off-site.

The proposed site plan will provide 210 on-site parking spaces as required by Code. With the new site plan, the school is committed to park an additional 58 students off site or to provide additional parking on site in the parking zone in either a parking garage or underground parking. This will result in no parking impacts associated with the proposed site plan.

Operations Plan

The access connection off of Royal Road will not be used for drop-off/pick-up operation. Therefore, there will be no access changes to parents during the critical drop-off and pick-up peak periods. Main Highway will continue to be used to be the sole access point for drop-off and pick-up.

Please give me a cal1 if you have any questions.

Re: Ransom Everglades School- Response to Traffic Comments

Dear Amy:

Traf Tech Engineering, Inc. is pleased to address the following comments provided by the City of Miami in connection with the Ransom Everglades School:

Comment: Provide Traffic Study and comments to the Miami-Dade County Traffic Schools.

Response: We will be submitting a vehicle accumulation study to Miami-Dade County for review and approval. A tentative meeting has been set with the County for Tuesday, March 4, 2014 in order to discuss the traffic study.

Comment: Review resolution of the removal of the 58 parking spaces we are losing - how to address/impact.

Response: The proposed site plan will provide 210 on-site parking spaces as required by Code. With the new site plan, the school is committed to park an additional 58 students off site, or to provide additional parking on site in the parking zone in either a parking garage or underground parking. This will result in no parking impacts associated with the proposed site plan.

Comment: Please provide a queue analysis for the proposed drop-off/pick-up locations.

Response: As documented in the attached Traffic Operations Plan, the school requires stacking for 32 vehicles and the proposed traffic circulation plan provides stacking for at least 42 vehicles.

Comment: Consider providing an existing parking utilization analysis to demonstrate that the reduced availability would not result in an increase drop-offlpick-up traffic.

Response: Based on field observations conducted by a registered professional traffic operations engineer on Tuesday, February 18, 2014, min imal to no vehicles parked in order to pick-up students. Hence, the reduction in on­ site parking is not anticipated to increase the drop-off/pick-up traffic.

Comment: Please provide detailed operational plan for drop-off/pick-up to include the proposed access on Royal Road.

Response: The access connection off of Royal Road will not be used for drop­ off/pick-up operation. Therefore, there will be no access changes to parents during the critical drop-off and pick-up peak periods. Main Highway will continue to be used to be the sole access point for drop-off and pick-up.

Comment: Please identify the off-site parking location mentioned in the memo under Parking Impacts.

Response: The majority of the students who park off-campus, park at Paradise Parking next to the Coconut Grove Playhouse. The School is not involved with offsite parking for students.

Comment: Please provide typical times, available personnel and procedures for drop off.

Response: Nonnal drop-off is between 7:15 and 7:45 a.m. Currently, a City of Miami police officer directs traffic on Main Highway during this time and three facilities workers help traffic flow efficiently on campus. We anticipate using similar staffmg with the new drop-off loop.

Please give me a call if you have any questions.

1 The facility to be used as a surrogate school will be determined by MDPWD staff. The surrogate school data is used to form a basis for the projected accumulations.

2 This figure is used to determine projected accumulations at the new school by applying it to existing surrogate school accumulations. It is calculated by dividing the new school student station capacity by the surrogate school student enrollment at the time of accumulation data collection.

3 These are all school related loading vehicles which are, legally or illegally, staged or parked, on or neighboring the school site.

4 Information must be obtained from a field surveyor proposed site plan indicating the total spaces to be provided for each vehicle type at 22 linear feet per passenger vehicle and/or commercial van, and 50 linear feet per large school bus. Credit may be taken for legal parking in paved swale areas along school property frontage. A sketch or site plan (maximum 40 scale) showing the location of these spaces, the type of spaces in each area, and linear footage provided for each area including the width of bus bays is required. Onstreet bus loading bays are required to have a minimum 14 foot width, onstreet passenger vehicle loading bays are required to have a minimum 10 foot width, and onstreet passenger vehicle parking areas are required to have a minimum 8 foot width, unless otherwise allowed.

5 This is calculated as, [ (Provided Spaces / Projected Accumulations) x 100 J, for each vehicle type. MDPWD requires all of the large school bus and student vehicle (if applicable) accumulations to be accommodated. The Department also expects 100 % of the passenger vehicle accumulation to be accommodated depending on adjacent roadway design and classification, and limitations of the school site. address, and telephone number:

Greening of Ransom Everglades School

The "Greening" of Ransom Everglades directs our attention to living, working, and learning in a way that respects our environment and ensures the sustainability of our lives and our school. The integration of environmental studies and sustainable development across our curriculum is one component of the "Greening" of Ransom Everglades. Not surprisingly, the Science Department leads the way in this area with courses in Environmental Science, Ecology, and Marine Biology, all of which incorporate experiential learning opportunities that place students in the environment so that they may develop a personal appreciation for the beauty of, and problems faced by, our environment. Other academic departments too have begun to integrate environmental studies into their curricula, assigning readings on environmental topics, highlighting themes related to nature and sustainability, and using real world case studies about the environment and sustainability. But the "greening" effort extends far beyond the classroom. An organic herb and vegetable garden, for example, planted in 2009 on the middle school campus, gives students a chance to think carefully about the many facets of food production, and the Senior Service Projects have been redesigned to include only "green" projects, including the planting of 600 mangrove propagules - cultivated during the 2009-2010 school year on campus - on Key Biscayne. In an effort to inspire "greening" across the curriculum, Richard Louv's Last Child in the Woods was assigned summer reading for faculty in 2010. Opening faculty meetings included guided discussions of the book and all faculty members were charged with developing at least one new "green" lesson for their curricula in 2010-2011, many of which are highlighted in the department SLP reports that follow.

In addition to adding an emphasis on greening to the curriculum, Ransom Everglades has also made a change in its habits of living and working by adopting the refuse, reduce, recycle, and re-use philosophy. Lighting and water systems throughout the campus have been retrofitted with more environmentally friendly hardware, energy audits have been conducted by environmental science students to alert our facilities staff to places where energy is being used wastefully or inefficiently, and most significantly, a recycling program has been put in place on campus for paper, aluminum, plastic, and glass. Email and the Internet have replaced paper in both staff communications, communications with parents, and in some cases, even in the collection of homework and assignments. Ransom Everglades has in fact been a leader in the local efforts to support Green Schools as one of the three founding members of the "Green Schools Challenge" in 2007 and an annual host of the Green Schools Challenge professional development workshop ever since.
