Re:Traffic Pattern Study
Pleasant Grove Road/Cradit Farm Drive Intersection
Town of Ithaca, Tompkins County, New York
This study has been commissioned by the Tompkins County Highway Department (TCHD) and Town of Ithaca to
determine whether some re-alignment of the intersection of Cradit Farm Drive and Pleasant Grove Road will
meet the goal of directing traffic more readily to the Cornell University campus with consideration of the safety
and mobility for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, and vehicles. TCHD and Town of Ithaca have previously
collected traffic data and developed conceptual reconfiguration designs for two alternatives consisting of a
roundabout and a T-intersection.
Included as a caveat,per section 5.9.1 of the NYSDOT Highway Design Manual, not only must roundabouts be
considered, they should be used where feasible: “when analysis shows that a single lane roundabout is a
reasonable alternative, it should be considered the departments preferred alternative due to proven substantial
safety benefits and other operational benefits. “A reasonable alternative is a feasible solution that meets the
objectives in a cost-effective and environmentally sound manner.”
Section 1: Existing Study Intersection Conditions
The four-way study intersection of Pleasant Grove Road (CR 122) and Cradit Farm Drive is positioned just east of
the Cornell Campus dormitories/community centers and just north of the Forest Home residential neighborhood
(see project location map below). This area maintains numerous pedestrian/trip generators with the presence of
the Cornell Campus to the west, the Hasbrouck apartment complex to the east, and multiple recreational and
university destinations in proximity to the intersection.

Pleasant Grove - Cradit Farm Intersection Evaluation (ID 3085196).docx
Figure 1 – Project Location Map
Pleasant Grove Road serves the major intersection approaches (northbound and southbound) with an annual
average daily traffic of 6,400 vehicles per day and is free flow through the intersection (i.e. no stop control).
Cradit Farm Drive is the eastbound intersection minor approach, which is stop controlled and provides access to
the Cornell campus. The westbound intersection approach is a driveway to Hasbrouck apartments and is stop
controlled. All intersection approaches consist of two-lane highways. There are no dedicated turn lanes present.
Pedestrian accommodations are provided by curb ramps and striped crosswalks at the southbound and
eastbound intersection approaches. Sidewalks and recreational paths are present along either side of Pleasant
Grove Road providing links to Cornell University and the Hasbrouck apartment complex to the west and east
respectively. Advanced pedestrian crossing warning signage is installed along the north/southbound intersection
approaches in accordance with National Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices guidelines. A speed hump is
also present along the northbound intersection approach which provides a measure of traffic calming. Per
NYSDOT traffic data, the 85th percentile speed, or free flow speed, along Pleasant Grove Drive is 35 mph. There
are currently no bicycle accommodations along either approach of Pleasant Grove Road or Cradit Farm Drive.

Both approaches maintain striped shoulders, which are not marked or signed for bicyclists. Transit
accommodations are provided by a bus stop (stop# 1331) on the southwest intersection quadrant. There are
several overhead utility poles immediately adjacent to the study intersection, particularly at the southwest
intersection quadrant. Pedestrian-scale lighting is provided along the west side of the intersection; none is
present on the east side.
Existing Traffic Patterns:
Tompkins County Highway Department has recently performed traffic volume counts along the approaches of
Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive. These counts were collected during May and June of 2023. The
May count period is representative of heavy load on the traffic network as this was during Cornell graduation
and alumni weekend. The later counts in June are representative of an off-peak seasonal load on the network.
The data collected by TCHD is summarized below.
Figure 2 – 2023 Traffic Volume Counts
(Source: Tompkins County Highway Department)
As part of this count analysis, TCHD compared the proportion of traffic traveling on Pleasant Grove Road which
entered the Cornell campus via Cradit Farm Drive. TCHD concluded that during the May count period
(graduation weekend) users predominantly favored Pleasant Grove Road at a ratio of 3½ : 1 and during the June
count period users favored Pleased Grove Road at a ratio of 5:1. A memorandum from TCHD summarizing this
data collection/analysis is included as Attachment #3.
Section 2: Study Background
In April 2019, site plan approval for the Cornell University North Campus Residential Expansion (NCRE) Project
was granted. A condition of this approval was that a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) be established
between Cornell University, the Town of Ithaca, and Tompkins County that “…affirms each entity’s desire to
realign the intersection of Cradit Farm Drive and Pleasant Grove Road to direct traffic more readily to the Cornell
campus…” Throughout 2019-2023, various preliminary design alternative have been proposed/evaluated which
has resulted in two preferred alternatives being established; a modern roundabout alternative and a three-
legged T-intersection alternative.

Both prior to and following the adoption of the NCRE, several evaluations of the study intersection were
performed as components of planning/engineering studies. In total, four prior analyses which included the
study intersection have been performed, all of which are relevant to this study. Listed below in chronological

Section 3: Existing Conditions Evaluation
Evaluating alternative intersection reconfigurations is the objective of this study. However, the existing
configuration warrants evaluation as the Null Alternative or unimproved existing condition to compare proposed
alternatives against. The existing configuration is representative of a traditional two-way stop control
intersection with free flow traffic control assigned to the Pleasant Grove Road approaches. Traffic is able to
access Cornell University via turning movements onto Cradit Farm Drive. Pedestrian and transit
accommodations are currently provided under existing conditions. No bicycle accommodations (e.g. bike lanes,
shared-use travel lanes) are provided along any of the existing intersection approaches.

Existing Intersection Capacity Analysis:
Under existing conditions, the study intersection provides vehicular accessibility to the Cornell University
campus via a traditional two-way stop controlled intersection. While prioritizing accessibility to the campus, it
should be reasoned that the preferred intersection alternative for this location continue to serve all users to the
safest and most efficient means practical with regards to the larger transportation network. Past analyses of the
study intersection provide insight on the operational performance metrics of the existing intersection. As part
of the 2018 TIS prepared by SRF Associates, intersection turning movement counts and a capacity analysis were
performed under pre-construction and anticipated post-construction traffic conditions related to the NCRE
project. Peak hour analysis consisted of an AM peak period of 8 AM – 9 AM and a PM peak period of 4:30PM to
5:30 PM. These 2018 peak hour turning movement counts are summarized in the below diagram:
LEGEND: AM (PM) Counts

As part of the TIS, existing traffic counts were forecasted for 2022 in addition to trips added to the study
intersection resulting from the construction of the NCRE project. These forecasted volumes are depicted in the
below figure:

The priority lane movements for the study intersection are the northbound/southbound lane movements of
Pleasant Grove Road.
SRF Associates’ analysis of the study also included a capacity analysis for the study intersection for the scenarios
before and after construction of the NCRE project. A capacity analysis, or Level of Service (LOS) analysis,
assesses the performance of a given intersection or corridor. Level of Service characterizes operational
conditions within a traffic stream and their perception by motorists and passengers. The descriptions of
individual levels of service characterize these operational conditions in terms of factors such as speed and travel
time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, and comfort and convenience. The LOS for an intersection is
defined in terms of delay (seconds). LOS criteria is stated in terms of average stopped delay per vehicle for a 15-
minute analysis period and range from “A” to “F”. A LOS of “D” or better is generally considered acceptable.
The following table illustrates the intersection ratings for an unsignalized intersection based on the time of delay
per vehicle:
Table 1: Level of Service (LOS) Criteria for Intersections
LOS Description Delay in Seconds
A Little or no delay <= 10.0
B Minor, Short delay > 10 to 15
C Average delay > 15 to 25
D Long, but acceptable delay > 25 to 35
E Long, Unacceptable delay > 35 to 50
F Long, Unacceptable delays > 50

The results of this pre/post-construction capacity analysis show that the each intersection approach is operating
at above acceptable performance. The minor intersection approaches of Cradit Farm Drive and the Hasbrouck
apartments experience higher delays compared to the major intersection approaches of Pleasant Grove Road.
This is to be expected as the minor approaches are stop controlled and drivers must wait to select appropriate
gaps within the free flowing mainline approaches.
Existing Intersection Crash Analysis:
Two previous crash/safety analyses have been performed on the study intersection. The first, performed by SRF
Associates, obtained historic NYSDOT crash data from October 2014 through September 2017. During this three
year period, zero crashes were recorded at the study intersection. The second, performed by Kimley-Horn of
New York, P.C., supplemented the crash data from the first study with historic crash data from Cornell University
from January 2012 to December 2016. Per the data provided by Cornell University, 4 crashes occurred during
this five year period. Of note, no recorded crashes within these two analysis resulted in a fatality at the study
intersection nor were there any recorded crashes involving a pedestrian/bicyclist.
Based on the performance metrics and historic data provided by these prior analyses, the existing intersection
configuration is operating at above acceptable Levels of Service and does not present a history of crashes
warranting corrective measures. With regards to safety, the existing intersection approaches maintain
appropriate pedestrian advanced warning signage for the uncontrolled pedestrian crossing on the southbound
approach of Pleasant Grove Road in addition to a speed hump present on the northbound approach.

Section 4: Intersection Alternative Analysis
The objective of this study is to determine whether some reconfiguration of the study intersection will direct
traffic more readily to the Cornell University campus with consideration of the safety and mobility for
pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users, and vehicles. In addition, the preferred alternative that satisfies this
objective shall also do so in a cost-effective and environmentally sound manner. This study shall objectively
evaluate alternative options which accomplish the study objective. Two previously established alternatives
consist of a T-intersection reconfiguration and a roundabout.
T-Intersection Alternative Analysis:
This alternative would reconstruct the alignments of Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive such that the
southbound approach of Pleasant Grove Road would flow directly into the eastbound approach of Cradit Farm
drive, creating a straight connection to Cornell University. As a result, the existing northbound approach of
Pleasant Grove Road would be reconfigured to intersect the proposed highway as a stop controlled westbound
approach. The existing Hasbrouck apartment entranceway would remain as is at its current location and the 3-
legged intersection would be constructed to the south. A previously developed schematic plan of this
configuration is shown below to illustrate this alternative.
Figure 5 – T-Intersection Alternative Schematic Plan
This alternative would direct traffic traveling southbound on Pleasant Grove Road directly into the Cornell
University campus via a direct connection unto Cradit Farm Drive. The consequence of doing so, however, is the

previously free flowing southbound/northbound traffic on Pleasant Grove Road would incur additional delay
navigating this alternative intersection control scheme. A Level-of-Service capacity analysis was performed on
this T-intersection alternative by LaBella Associates in May 2022 for the AM and PM peak hour periods. Detailed
LOS analysis reports are included as Attachment #4. The notable lane movement LOS results are summarized in
Table 3 below.

Capacity analysis confirms that under this alternative, the reconfigured intersection would continue to operate
with acceptable Levels-of-Service for all intersection approaches. Vehicle queues along the southbound left turn
lane and westbound right/left turn lane ranged from 1-2 vehicles.
A review of existing traffic patterns provides insight on the desired usage of the commuting public at the study
intersection. Based on the most recent traffic data collected by TCHD in 2023 (shown in Figure 2), the
predominant traffic movements served by the study intersection are the northbound and southbound
movements on Pleasant Grove Road. Reviewing the data collected during an off-peak period showed that 8% of
trips were directed to/from Cradit Farm Drive. This percentage increased to 11.5% during Cornell graduation
and alumni weekend.
Based on empirical data, it is a minority of users that access Cornell University via Cradit Farm Drive. From this
standpoint, realigning Pleasant Grove Road to direct traffic towards the campus would not serve the majority of
vehicles traversing this intersection. Reconfiguring the alignments of Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive
or constructing an alternative form of intersection control would not have the potentially desired result of
mitigating traffic flows through the Forest Home community or alter latent traffic patterns.
A map of Cornell University is provided as Attachment #5. An excerpt from this map is provided below which
illustrates the roadway network in proximity to the study intersection. Of note, there is a high density of
housing provisions and parking (See A Lot) in close proximity to the study intersection which are trip
generator/destinations. To the west are the Cornell University residence halls, townhouse apartments to the
north, and the Hasbrouck apartments to the east. These housing options are serviced by parking lots that do

not provide access to Cradit Farm Drive with access being provided by Jessup Road to the north. In addition, a
significant portion of the campus is located to the south beyond Fall Creek and Beebe Lake. The most direct
access to these portions of the campus is to utilize Pleasant Grove Road and Forest Home Drive. Drivers
organically will select the shortest route to their destination and there currently is not an alternative route
which provides similar travel time compared to utilizing Pleasant Grove Road/Forest Home Drive.

Any form of T-intersection reconfiguration in service of realigning Pleasant Grove Road to transition into Cradit
Farm Drive would introduce stop control for vehicles, which currently utilize the northbound approach of
Pleasant Grove Road from Forest Home Drive. The previously performed capacity analysis documented that the
delay for these drivers would be minimal (LOS B) and queues would be kept to 1-2 vehicles. While this
delay/queueing is minimal, this configuration would not serve the overwhelming majority of traffic as on
average 90% of trips are not destined for Cradit Farm Drive. Per historic traffic data, a small portion of users
would benefit from Pleasant Grove Road being realigned to flow into Cradit Farm Drive, with the bulk of users
needing to perform a southbound left turn movement or northbound right turn movement from a stop
controlled approach. This reconfiguration would also have an impact on pedestrians which are currently
serviced by a path along the east side of Cradit Farm Drive. Under this alternative, pedestrians would need to
cross at the stop controlled approach which is not preferable compared to the pedestrian accommodations
under existing conditions. Bicyclist accommodations/safety would be similar to the Null Alternative. The transit
stop currently located at the southwest intersection quadrant would need to be relocated to an appropriate
location. Final geometry of the 3-legged intersection would need to ensure that heavy vehicle turning
movements are accommodated. The horizontal/vertical geometry of the northbound approach of Pleasant
Grove Road has the potential to create difficulty for those larger vehicles. The existing vertical grade along the
northbound approach is quite steep at 11%. Existing vegetation/trees between Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit
Farm Drive would need to be removed to ensure adequate intersection sight distances are provided to drivers.
Compared to the Null Alternative, this alternatives has inherent capital costs associated with design, permitting,
construction, utility relocations, and right-of-way impacts.
Roundabout Alternative Analysis:
The modern roundabout alternative proposes to construct a 3-legged roundabout located approximately 250-ft
south of the existing study intersection which would provide access to both Cradit Farm Drive and Pleasant
Grove Road; the driveway to the Hasbrouck apartment complex would be maintained as is. Figure 7 below
illustrates a conceptual rendering of this alternative.

Figure 7 – Roundabout Alternative Schematic Rendering
As stated in LaBella Associate’s 2022 report prepared for Cornell University, the objective of this alternative was
to reduce “thru” traffic traveling through the Forest Home neighborhood on Pleasant Grove Road as well as
increase efficiency and reduce delay for dominant traffic movements between Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit
Farm Drive. To date, a capacity analysis of a roundabout has not been performed but it is reasonably assumed
that a roundabout would provide acceptable Levels-of-Service given the historic traffic volumes associated with
the study intersection. Similar to the T-intersection alternative, a roundabout is an alternative form of
intersection control, but it would not have the intended effect of altering latent traffic patterns. Vehicles would
continue towards their origins/destinations similar to pre-construction conditions once they navigated the
roundabout. A roundabout would provide the opportunity to create a gateway feature, highlighting the
entrance to Cornell University.
The applicability and safety benefits of roundabouts has been a developing field with continued
research/evaluation by transportation professions. Recent (2023) research/findings by the National Cooperative
Highway Research Program (NCHRP) has been published in Research Report 1043 – Guide for Roundabouts
which was sponsored by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).There is not a documented history of safety concern at the study
intersection, but the lack of quantifiable crashes does not mean the intersection cannot be made safer via this
alternative. The provision of a roundabout has the potential to improve safety by reducing the number of

conflict points. A conflict point is a location where the paths of two vehicles, or a vehicle and a bicycle or
pedestrian diverge, merge, or cross each other. Fewer conflict points results in fewer opportunities for
collisions. The geometry of roundabouts inherently results in lower vehicle speeds which translates to less
severe crashes (i.e. fewer injuries/fatalities).
All at-grade intersections present conflicts between motor vehicles and pedestrians at crossing locations. Per
NCHRP’s findings, research into pedestrian safety at roundabouts has been limited in its ability to establish
pedestrian volumes and exposure alongside historical crash data at roundabouts. It has not yet been possible to
draw conclusions about comparative or predictive pedestrian risk at roundabouts versus other intersection
types. Pedestrian-vehicle conflicts at intersections can be categorized by their exposure, severity, and
movement complexity for the pedestrian and the driver. The severity is a function of vehicle speed at the
conflict points. Movement complexity can be characterized by traffic control, the number of lanes crossed, the
speed of conflicting traffic, and any simultaneous tasks or cognitive demands (e.g. driver seeking gaps in traffic).
The figure below depicts the conflict points present at TWSC intersections, signalized intersections, and
roundabouts of two intersecting two-lane roadways.

TWSC intersections result in half of pedestrian-vehicle conflicts attributable to uncontrolled movements
including left turns from the major street to the minor street. Those conflicts require drivers to judge a gap and
complete a left turn to clear the intersection, reaching the pedestrian conflict point as they accelerate out of a
turn to leave the intersection. The controlled movements are nearly as complex, given that drivers are required
to judge gaps in traffic and yield to pedestrians simultaneously. Roundabout designs offset the pedestrian
crossings form the circulatory roadway so that drivers do not have simultaneous decisions to yield to
pedestrians while they judge gaps in circulating traffic.
Bicyclists, like pedestrians, are vulnerable road users whose safety needs to be considered. Because bicyclists
typically ride to the right of motor vehicle traffic on segments between intersections, they face additional
conflicts when they need to merge into the flow of motor vehicle traffic or where motor vehicles cross their
path. All intersections present design challenges and safety concerns about vehicle-bicycle conflict points. As

with pedestrian safety, existing research into bicyclist safety at roundabouts has been limited in its ability to
establish exposure alongside historical crash data. Bicyclist-involved crashes represent a small portion of
historical roundabout crashes (less than 1% per NCHRP Research Report 888), so it has not yet been possible to
draw conclusions about comparative or predictive bicyclist risk at roundabouts versus other intersection types.
Crash Modification Factors (CMFs) available from the Highway Safety Manual, Part D, and the FHWA CMF
Clearinghouse provide quantitative insights about anticipated roundabout safety performance compared with
stop-controlled and signalized intersection(s). A CMF represents the expected change in crashes with
implementation of treatment. For example, a CMF of 0.7 would indicate an expected reduction in crashes of 30
percent. Lower CMFs indicate a greater expected crash reduction. CMFs are empirical and estimated using
statistical methods. Figure 9 below provides CMF related to conversion from stop-controlled intersection to
roundabouts:

(Source: NCHRP 2023: Guide for Roundabouts)
FHWA has historically provided guidance on the implementation of roundabouts as a form of intersection
control. In 2000, FHWA issued a document,Roundabouts: An Information Guide, to facilitate safe, optimal
operation and designs that are both consistent at a national level and consequential for driver expectation and
safety. This guide offers principles of good design as well as indicates the potential tradeoffs related to
roundabout implementation. Noteworthy highlights from FHWA’s guidance are provided below:
Roundabouts are generally safer than other forms of intersection in terms of aggregate crash statistics
for low/medium traffic capacity conditions
Injury crash rates for motor vehicle occupants are generally lower, although the proportion of single-
vehicle crashes is typically higher
o Attributable to lower speeds
Bicyclists and pedestrians are involved in a relatively higher proportion of injury accidents than they are
at other intersections.
Roundabouts treat all movements at an intersection equally. Each approach is required to yield to
circulating traffic, regardless whether the approach is a major or minor traffic volume. All movements
are given equal priority. This may result in more delay to the major movements than might otherwise
be desired. This problem is most acute at the intersection of high-volume major streets with low- to
Mr. Jeffrey Smith
Tompkins County Highway Department
Traffic Pattern Study – Pleasant Grove Road / Cradit Farm Drive Intersection

Page 16
Pleasant Grove - Cradit Farm Intersection Evaluation (ID 3085196).docx
medium-volume minor streets. This limitation should be specifically considered on emergency response
routes in comparison with other intersection types and control.
Roundabouts may provide environmental benefits if they reduce vehicle delay and the number and
duration of stops compared with an alternative form of intersection control. This may reduce noise and
air quality impacts and fuel consumption if the number of acceleration/deceleration vehicles is reduced.
Spatial requirements
o Roundabout alternatives require more space for the circular roadway and central island than
the rectangular space required for a tradition intersection.
o Roundabouts have significant right-of-way impact on the corner properties at the intersection,
especially when compared with other forms of unsignalized intersections.
Operational and Maintenance costs
o Roundabout alternatives results in higher landscape maintenance costs depending on the
degree of landscaping provided on the center island, splitter islands, and perimeter
Multi-modal considerations
o As with any intersection design, each transportation mode present requires careful
consideration.
o Roundabout design provide pedestrians with space to pause on the splitter island, allowing
pedestrians to consider one direction of conflicting traffic at a time, which simplifies the task of
crossing the street.
o Comparing roundabouts to other alternatives, roundabout geometry physically slows and
deflects vehicles, reducing the likelihood of high-speed collisions due to traffic control device
violation.
o Roundabouts may not provide safety benefits to bicyclists
However, slower vehicle speeds are more compatible with bicycle speeds
One of the difficulties in accommodating bicyclists are their wide range of skills and
comfort levels in mixed traffic. On single lane roundabouts, bicyclists have the option of
either mixing with traffic or using the roundabout like a pedestrian.
o Bus stops should be located away from a roundabout and not impact queues
ADA roundabout compliance
o When crossing a roundabout, there are several areas of difficulty for the blind and or visually
impaired. It is expected that a visually impaired pedestrian with good travel skills must be able
to arrive at an unfamiliar intersection and cross it with pre-existing skills and without special,
intersection-specific training. Roundabouts pose problems at several points of the crossing
experiences, from the perspective of information access.
Geometric considerations
o Problems of grades or unfavorable topography that may limit visibility or complicate
construction

Traffic Pattern Study – Pleasant Grove Road / Cradit Farm Drive Intersection
May 3, 2024
Page 17
Pleasant Grove - Cradit Farm Intersection Evaluation (ID 3085196).docx
Data Driven applicability
o The decision to install a roundabout for traffic calming purposes should be supported by a
demonstrated need for traffic calming along the interesting roadways
Documented observations of speeding, high traffic volumes, or careless driving
o The decision to install a roundabout as a safety improvement should be based on a
demonstrated safety problem of the type susceptible to correction by a roundabout. A review
of crash reports and the types of accidents occurring is essential.
High rates of right angle, head-on, left/through, U-turns, etc.
High crash severity that could be reduced by the slower speeds associated with
roundabouts
Sight distance issues
Roundabout warrants
o There are no warrants for roundabouts included in the MUTCD. Each roundabout installation
needs to be justified by its own merits.
Alternatives analysis vs. TWC
o The majority of intersections in the U.S. operate under TWSC, and most of those intersections
operate with minimal delay. The installation of roundabout at an existing TWSC intersection
that is operating satisfactorily is difficult to justify on performance alone.
o The most common problems with TWSC intersections are congestion on the minor street caused
by a demand that exceeds capacity, and queues that form on the major street because of
inadequate capacity for left turning vehicles yielding to opposing traffic
Per the findings of NCHRP’s 2023 Guide for Roundabouts, considerations for implementing a roundabout
alternative should be based on achieving the following goals:
1.Safety Performance
a.Reduced vehicular speeds, reduced crash frequency, and reduced crash severity are chief
benefits for agencies that select to install roundabouts
2.Operation Performance
a.Reduced delay, stopping, and queueing compared with stop control alternatives are key factors
in selecting roundabout alternatives.
3.Gateway Effect
a.Agencies have installed roundabouts to reinforce a change of context (e.g. the interface
between rural and urban areas) and promote speed reduction on a given roadway section.
4.Placemaking
a.Placemaking refers to creating a connection between people and their communities with more
pedestrian-friendly environments. Roundabouts can support placemaking at a single location or
along corridors.

The construction of a roundabout alternative is appealing for its ability to implement traffic calming and
potential safety benefits for motorists and pedestrians/bicyclists alike. Of note, there is no existing data that
indicates there is an inherent safety issue with the existing intersection configuration. Implementing a
roundabout results in a form of intersection control in which all movements are given equal priority. This is not
a preferred form of intersection control for scenarios in which there is a high volume major street and a low
volume minor street, such is the case with Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive. There would also be
substantial impacts and capital costs associated with a roundabout alternative associated with design,
permitting, construction, utility relocations, right-of-way impacts as well as work zone traffic control delays
during construction.
Section 5: Analysis Results & Recommendations
The study intersection of Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive has previously been evaluated a number of
times with multiple data sets collected. As detailed in the previous sections, thus far three alternatives have
been presented for consideration:
1.Null Alternative – Existing Conditions
2.T-Intersection Alternative
3.Roundabout Alternative
In terms of evaluating other alternatives, many state DOTs have utilized an Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE)
process for selecting the most appropriate intersection form and control for planning intersection projects. ICE
provides an objective means to consider the appropriateness of intersection control or intersection types using a
performance-based approach to compare alternatives. Each intersection project is an incremental opportunity
to improve safety along a given transportation network. Using a performance-based approach, ICE is used to
screen alternatives and identify optimal geometric and control solutions for an intersection.

FHWA provides resources and tools to assist agencies conduct ICE policies and activities. One of these tools is
the Capacity Analysis for Planning of Junctions (CAP-X). This tool conducts critical movement analysis to gauge
the potential performance of various intersection types. Utilizing the previously collected traffic data from SRF
Associates TIS of the study intersection, a CAP-X analysis was performed for the existing conditions (2018) and
full build conditions (2022). The analysis was developed to evaluate several alternative intersection
configurations based on operational performance. The alternative configurations evaluated included two-way
stop control (i.e. Null Alternative), all-way stop control, traffic signal installation, 50-ft mini-roundabout, 75-ft
mini-roundabout, and a modern roundabout. The results of the CAP-X analysis are included as Attachment #6
and summarized in Figure 10 below. The CAP-X analysis utilizes the traffic volumes as input to calculate and
assign a volume-to-capacity (V/C) ratio for each of the considered intersection alternatives. Similar to a
favorable Level-of-Service, a lower V/C ratio translates to the intersection operating more efficiently at
facilitating traffic. Amongst the alternatives considered, all maintain a V/C ratio less than 1.0, with two-way stop
control yielding the lowest V/C ratio.
Figure 10 – FHWA CAP-X Intersection Alternatives Evaluation Results
The performance metric in which any alternative is to be assessed is the ability to direct traffic more readily to
the Cornell University’s campus. Equally of value, is the ability of the selected alternative to satisfy this objective
while doing so in a cost-effective and environmentally sound manner. As this study has been commissioned by
TCHD and the Town of Ithaca, the selected alternative should serve the best interests of the public. As such, any
geometric or intersection treatment which varies from the Null Alternative should have quantifiable benefits
which outweigh maintaining the Null Alternative. Based on historic traffic patterns and safety analysis, there is
not a symptomatic issue at the study intersection which engineering judgement would justify needs correcting.
However, alternative intersection configurations may still be desirable from the standpoint of aesthetic

improvements, placemaking, or proactive safety improvements. As previously mentioned, simply because there
is not a pattern of crashes at the study intersection does not mean that potential safety benefits cannot be
realized by implementing an alternative form of intersection. In this case, the roundabout alternative has the
potential to provide enhanced safety measures at the study intersection. Yet, aside from the Null Alternative,
any proposed alternative must be considerate of project costs, environmental impacts, and impacts to the
community. From a cost-benefit standpoint, maintaining the existing intersection configuration best achieves
the study objectives while minimizing costs/impacts to the public and project stakeholders.

The primary purpose of this report is to identify and evaluate the potential transportation impacts
associated with the proposed North Campus Residential Expansion in the City of Ithaca, Town of
Ithaca and Village of Cayuga Heights, Tompkins County, New York.
In an effort to define traffic impact, this report documents existing traffic conditions, future
background traffic conditions including area growth, and determines the future traffic operations
that result from the proposed development. Future traffic volumes and operating conditions as
well as parking generation and demand associated with the proposed development are evaluated.
In addition, pedestrian circulation, transit service, and bicycle infrastructure are discussed, as well
as any safety concerns within the study area.

A circulation study prepared by Kimley-Horn addressed pedestrian, bicycle and transit facilities.
These facilities are summarized below.
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
3 June 2018
Pedestrian Facilities
Kimley-Horn’s circulation study provided a summary of pedestrian accommodations throughout
the North Campus. Generally, sidewalks are present within and around North Campus. The
report described areas where sidewalks are lacking, such as portions of the following study
roadways: Jessup Road, Triphammer Road, Cradit Farm Drive, Northcross Road and Sisson Place.
Sidewalk conditions, type (e.g., concrete, asphalt), and width vary throughout. Crosswalks are
generally marked with paint or textured materials; however, several crossing locations lack
adequate curb ramps. In Cayuga Heights, sidewalks can be found along both sides of most study
roadways, except for Pleasant Grove Road and East Upland.
Bicycle Facilities
Also contained in the Kimley-Horn report is an evaluation of existing bicycle facilities. There are
marked bicycle lanes “along portions of Thurston Avenue, Jessup Road, and Cradit Farm Drive.”
Where marked lanes are not present, such as along Pleasant Grove Road, there is a shoulder
present. However, not all shoulders within the study area are suitable for bicycle riding, for
example, as the widths vary from two feet to more than five feet. Other roadways, such as Wait
Avenue and Triphammer Road south of Jessup Road lack either shoulder or marked lanes.
Transit Facilities
Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit (TCAT) has 33 bus routes, operates 22 hours a day, and
services an area-wide population of over 100,000. Ridership as of 2017 was approximately four
(4) million annual trips. Within the study area, bus stops can be found along routes, such as
Thurston Avenue, Cradit Farm Drive, Jessup Road, Triphammer Road, and Pleasant Grove Road.
All told, routes 30, 31, 32, 37, 41, 70, 72, 75, 81, 82, 90, 91, and 93 service the area. The following
graphic from TCAT’s Winter-Spring 2018 Schedules and Service Guide illustrates the bus routes
adjacent the project site.
Primary Transit Routes
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
4 June 2018
Kimley-Horn has evaluated the conditions of the bus stops in the project study area. According
to the circulation study, sheltered bus stop conditions are generally good. Other bus stops
identified are those with pull-outs or along the roadside in grassy areas. The report identified the
bus stop on the north side of Cradit Farm Drive nearby Helen Newman Hall as the most utilized.
The primary routes likely to be most affected by the proposed project are 81, 82, and 83.
Remaining routes travelling through the study area to the mall, airport, and medical offices on East
Hill will likely experience some level of increased ridership as well.
According to TCAT’s Schedules and Service Guide, route 81 offers service from A Lot to Boyce
Thompson Institute (BTI) primarily during the morning period from 4:40 AM to 6:54 AM; from
7:40 AM to 10:10 AM between A Lot and Dairy Bar. There are 10-minute headways. Route 82
offers 10-minute headways during weekdays from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM between destinations such
as, Hasbrouck Apartments, Appel Commons, Uris Hall, BTI, Vet School, and East Hill Plaza. Route
83 provides service from 8:14 AM to 10:14 AM between Stewart @ University, Uris Hall,
Hasbrouck Apartments, and Goldwin Smith Hall. Headways are approximately 15 minutes. TCAT
anticipates adding two new buses to the north campus routes as a result of this project.
Emergency Services and Access
Emergency services are provided by all three municipalities (City of Ithaca, Town of Ithaca, and
Village of Cayuga Heights) as well as Cornell University. On site are Blue Light emergency call
boxes that provide a direct connection to the Cornell University Police Department.
IV. EXISTING TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
A. Peak Intervals for Analysis
Given the functional characteristics of the roadways within the study area and the land use
proposed for the site (student housing), the peak hours selected for analysis are the weekday
AM and PM peaks. The combination of site generated traffic and adjacent through traffic
produces the greatest demand during these peak periods.
B. Existing Traffic Volume Data
Peak hour traffic volumes for the study intersections identified in Table II were collected by
SRF & Associates for the weekday AM and PM peak periods between 7:00-9:30 AM and 3:30-
6:00 PM. The count dates and actual peak hour factors for each study area intersection are
depicted in the table. For the purposes of this analysis, the data are utilized with the actual
peak hours at each individual intersection. Using the actual peaks at each intersection provides
a worst-case scenario when adding project related traffic; however, it should be noted that
the peak hours generally occurred between 8:00-9:00 AM and 4:30-5:30 PM.
All counts were taken while local schools and universities/colleges were in session. During
the AM peak period on February 6, there were snowy conditions, but accumulation on the
study roadways did not occur. All other time periods experienced no adverse weather
conditions. The traffic volumes were reviewed to confirm the accuracy and relative balance
of the collective traffic counts. The actual differences in traffic volumes can be attributed to
temporal variations in traffic volumes as well as activity related to driveways located in the
segments between the study intersections.

The existing weekday AM and PM peak hour volumes are reflected in Figure 3.
C. Field Observations
The study intersections were observed during the peak intervals to assess current traffic
operations. Signal timing information was collected to determine peak hour phasing plans and
phase durations during each interval.
D. Vehicular Capacity Analysis
Capacity analysis is a technique used for determining a measure of effectiveness for a section
of roadway and/or intersection based on the number of vehicles during a specific time period.
The measure of effectiveness used for the capacity analysis is referred to as a Level of Service
(LOS). Levels of Service are calculated to provide an indication of the amount of delay that a
motorist experiences while traveling along a roadway or through an intersection. Since the
most amount of delay to motorists usually occurs at intersections, the capacity analysis
specifically focuses on intersections.
Six Levels of Service are defined for analysis purposes. They are assigned letter designations,
from "A" to "F", with LOS "A" representing the best conditions and LOS "F" the worst.
Suggested ranges of service capacity and an explanation of Levels of Service are included in
the Appendix.
The standard procedure for capacity analysis of signalized and un-signalized intersections is
outlined in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM 2016) published by the Transportation
Research Board. Traffic analysis software, Synchro 10, which is based on procedures and
methodologies contained in the HCM, was used to analyze operating conditions at the study
area intersections. The procedure yields a Level of Service (LOS) based on the HCM 2016 as
an indicator of how well intersections operate.

Existing operating conditions during the peak study periods are evaluated to determine a basis
for comparison with field observation. Table III summarizes the existing capacity analysis
results.

E. Crash Evaluation
An accident investigation at the study area intersections was conducted to assess the safety
history from October 2014 through September 2017. The data was provided by the NYSDOT
through a Freedom of Information request.
A total of 34 accidents were documented during the investigation period (3 years). The
severity of the 34 documented accidents is broken down as follows:
8 – Reportable - Injury
12 – Reportable – Non-Injury
14 – Non-Reportable
Reportable (non-injury, injury, and fatal injury) type accidents are defined as damage to one
person’s property in the amount of $1,001 or more. The Non-Reportable type accidents
result in property damage of $1,000 or less.
The accident history was further investigated to identify high incident areas. Table IV
summarizes accidents occurring at each intersection. Based on the number of accidents at
each intersection, accident rates were calculated and compared to the statewide average for
similar intersections. The calculated rates and comparison to statewide averages are also
summarized in Table II. Accident rate calculations are included in the Appendix. Intersection
rates are listed as accidents per million entering vehicles (ACC/MEV). It should be noted that
NYSDOT average accident rates are based on reportable and non-reportable type accidents.

Many of the study intersections either had no accident occur over the past three years or
have an accident rate matching the statewide average for similar intersections. The
intersections of Thurston Avenue/Cradit Farm Drive, Pleasant Grove Road/Jessup Road &
Hasbrouck Circle, and Northcross Road/CC Lot have significantly higher accident rates than
the statewide averages, so they have been investigated further.
Thurston Avenue/Cradit Farm Drive
A total of 6 accidents were documented during the investigation period (3 years). The
calculated accident rate is approximately five times higher than the statewide average for
other similar 3-legged intersections. The accidents recorded were categorized as rear end
(1), fixed-object (1), and pedestrian/bike collisions (3). All three pedestrian/bike collisions
occurred in the northbound/southbound direction. These types of collisions could be
prevented by providing crosswalk striping with signage, increasing sight distance for both
drivers and pedestrians, or by installing traffic calming devices such as speed humps.
Pleasant Grove Road/Jessup Road & Hasbrouck Circle
A total of 7 accidents were documented at this intersection. The calculated accident rate is
3 times the statewide average for other similar 4-legged un-signalized intersections. The
accidents that occurred were categorized as right-angle (2), side-swipe (1), fixed object (1),
animal (1), bike/pedestrian (1), and other (1). There are no notable accident clusters.
Northcross Road/CC Lot
The calculated accident rate is 12 times higher than the statewide average for similar
intersections. However, only 3 accidents were documented at this intersection. The
accidents that occurred were categorized as left turn (1), right turn (1), and other (1). There
are no accident clusters at this intersection.
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University

Most accidents were caused by either driver inattention, following too closely, or slippery
pavement. Human error contributing factors were the most prevalent causes of the
accidents.
V. FUTURE AREA DEVELOPMENT AND LOCAL GROWTH
The proposed North Campus Residential Expansion will be constructed and operational within
four years (2022). The Town and City of Ithaca and Village of Cayuga Heights were contacted to
discuss any other specific developments that are currently approved or under construction that
would generate additional traffic in the study area. The identified projects were the Maplewood
Graduate Student housing development, the potential East Hill Village project the Community
Corners Medical Office. In addition, the Cornell University Tang Welcome Center opened in May
2018 within the study area.
Traffic related to the Community Corners Medical Office development was added to the study
intersections. To account for normal increases in background traffic growth, Maplewood
Graduate Student Housing development, the Tang Welcome Center, the East Hill Village
development, and any other unforeseen developments in the project study area, a growth rate of
1.5% per year has been applied to the existing traffic volumes, based upon historical traffic growth
for the four-year build-out period. Future background traffic volumes are shown in Figure 4.
VI. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
A. Description
Cornell University is undertaking a project that will add approximately 2,000 student beds
and a dining facility to North Campus by August 2022. For convenience this document will
refer to “approximately 2,000 beds” in the narrative, however, all of the analysis was
conducted for 2,079 beds. This project will address a deficit of on-campus housing for first-
year, second-year, and transfer students, as well as accommodate a planned increase in
undergraduate enrollment beginning in 2021. Cornell University is a residential (not
commuter) campus, and the first two years of the experience are foundational to students’
academic success, personal development, and the ability to build a cohesive community on
campus. The additional residence halls developed in the North Campus Residential Expansion
will provide support during the most formative years of the student experience, enabling
Cornell to house 100% of its first-year students and sophomores on campus.
This project will be developed on two sites on Cornell University’s North Campus in the City
of Ithaca, Town of Ithaca and the Village of Cayuga Heights, Tompkins County, New York.
The sophomore site is bounded by Jessup Road to the north and Northcross Road to the
east. The site includes the existing CC and CC South parking lots (386 parking spaces), Sigma
Alpha Mu – a university-owned fraternity house, and parts of Sisson Place road.
The first-year student housing site is bounded by Program House Drive and Mews Hall to the
west, Jessup Road at the narrow northern neck, Pleasant Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive
to the east, and Appel Commons and its adjacent parking lot to the south. Presently, the site
hosts three natural grass recreation fields, two basketball courts, and four tennis courts.
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
11 June 2018
The project will result in removal of the recreation fields north of Appel Commons and CC
Parking Lots as well as the segment of Northcross Road between Triphammer Road and the
Robert Purcell Community Center (RPCC) loading dock access road.
The project will be constructed in two phases as follows:
1. 823 student beds and a dining facility scheduled for completion August 2021.
2. Site 2 – 1,256 student beds scheduled for completion August 2022.
Figure 5 illustrates the proposed concept site plan.
B. Site Parking and Transportation
Site Parking
The North Campus will actually see a reduction in overall parking as a result of development
of this new housing. The existing CC Lot (a 386-space parking lot on Jessup Road) will be
replaced by the Site 1 housing development. These parking spaces will not be replaced. Parking
will be enhanced at the RPCC to accommodate visitors and conference attendees. At both
Sites 1 and 2, parking facilities sufficient to service ADA requirements, residence hall live-in
staff, and maintenance/delivery access will be provided. Accessible parking and service needs
will be redistributed into small lots throughout North Campus with A Lot continuing to be
the primary satellite parking for staff as well as faculty and visitors.
The CC parking lot utilization rates are very low, therefore it is expected that parking
displacement at this site will not impact overall parking on North Campus. A September 2018
survey indicates that there are approximately 20 staff and maintenance vehicles and 90
students who utilize the CC Lot on a daily basis. Vehicles currently parking in CC Lot will be
relocated to A Lot, Hasbrouck, Anna Comstock North Lot, and/or Hurlburt House Lot.
Traffic currently entering and exiting CC Lot during the peak hours [10(10) entering and 4(42)
exiting during the AM (PM) peak hours] were re-distributed to these four lots based upon
the size of each lot and ability to accommodate additional parked vehicles. Figure 6 shows
the re-distributed traffic volumes as each of the study intersections and detailed re-
distribution calculations are included in the Appendix of this Report.
Cornell University anticipates 823 new sophomores and 1,256 new first year students will live
on North Campus. Historical data indicates that approximately 4% of first-year students and
12% of sophomores living on North Campus currently bring cars. Applying these percentages
to the new residents results in 149 additional parked vehicles as a result of North Campus
residents. New students living on North Campus are expected to park in the same four
parking lots mentioned above.
Vehicular Traffic Generation
The effects of this project on the surrounding roadway network and internal circulation
system of North Campus will be minimal. The analysis contained in this report focuses on
morning and afternoon peak intervals that overlap with surrounding commuter traffic. These
are peak intervals when students are going to or coming from class. As such, very little if any
new student vehicles will be added to the surrounding system, during the critical peaks.
However, it is recognized that there will be some vehicular activity related to both students
and staff as a result of the proposed development. Therefore, traffic volumes entering and
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
12 June 2018
exiting CC Lot were used to calculate a ratio of parked vehicles to peak hour vehicular traffic
entering and exiting the parking lots.
Table V shows the total site generated trips for the weekday AM and PM peak hours for the
proposed development. All trip generation calculations are included in the Appendix of this
report.

The North Campus Housing development is expected to generate approximately 7 entering/3
exiting vehicle trips during the weekday AM peak hour and 7 entering/33 exiting vehicle trips
during the PM peak hour.
Pedestrian Circulation During Peak Vehicular Hours
Although student vehicular activity is not anticipated to increase significantly during the peak
commuting intervals, the influx of 2,000 additional students on North Campus will have a
significant effect on pedestrian activity. New trips with origins on North Campus and
destinations on central campus will create additional pedestrian and bicycle flow back and
forth throughout the day. Flow to classes on central campus will coincide with the morning
commuting peak. The pedestrian flow back to North Campus is more staggered throughout
the day. Consequently, there will be no significant increase in flow from central campus to
North Campus in late afternoon during the PM commuting peak (4:30 to 5:30).
Since pedestrian flow is concentrated in the morning and coincides with A.M. peak Cornell
and non-Cornell commuter travel, it will have an impact during that time interval. The number
of new pedestrian trips anticipated is based on the following:
Existing and proposed population on North Campus
Number of existing pedestrian trips on North Campus
Based on an analysis of the above information, it is estimated that approximately 210
pedestrian trips will be added to the surrounding roadway network during the peak 15 minute
time period during the A.M. commuter peak.
Proposed Service Trips
Additional service trips will be required to provide the needs of the new residence halls.
Dependent on the goods delivered and/or services provided, delivery/service trips are
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
13 June 2018
scheduled throughout the day, but substantially decrease by late afternoon. This minimizes
the impact to the internal circulation and surrounding network. Five additional service vehicles
per day (Cornell trades/maintenance/Grounds vehicles) are anticipated during normal
operations. In addition, five delivery vehicles are expected to access the site daily during
normal operations (delivery to dining). It is unlikely that any of these vehicles would arrive or
depart during the A.M. and P.M. peak traffic times. Service and emergency access is provided
by spur roads off the perimeter streets, giving priority to pedestrians in the core area. They
will arrive and depart in similar manner as the existing vehicles servicing the north campus
area.
Transit
Transit will continue to serve the perimeter roads, providing connections to Central Campus,
perimeter parking, and regional destinations. The quantity, location and condition of existing
bus stops have been evaluated by Kimley-Horn in coordination with TCAT.
C. Vehicular Traffic Distribution
The cumulative effect of site traffic on the transportation network is dependent on the origins
and destinations of that traffic and the location of the access drives serving the site.
The proposed arrival/departure distribution of traffic to be generated is considered a function
of several parameters, including the following:
Proximity and access to Cornell University;
Existing traffic counts at the study area intersections;
Retail centers;
Existing roadway network; and
Existing traffic conditions and controls
Figure 7 shows the anticipated trip distribution pattern percentages for the north campus
traffic that will enter and exit the various parking lots during the commuter peak hours and
Figure 8 illustrates the resulting peak hour trips based on those percentages for the weekday
AM and PM peak hour periods.
VII. FULL DEVELOPMENT VOLUMES
Proposed design hour traffic volumes are developed for each peak by combining the background
traffic conditions (Figure 4) and the newly created traffic generations (Figure 8). The resulting
network design hour volumes are illustrated in Figure 9.
VIII. VEHICULAR CAPACITY ANALYSIS
The background conditions and future traffic conditions generated by the new residential uses on
north campus were analyzed to assess the operations of the intersections in the study area.
Capacity results for background and full development are listed in Table VI. The discussion
following the table summarizes capacity conditions. All capacity analysis calculations are included
in the Appendix.

Notes:
1. Green shaded cells indicate low delays, yellow shaded cells indicate moderate delays,
red shaded cells indicate long delays.
2. A (2.6) = Level of Service (Delay in seconds per vehicle).
3. (S) = Signalized. All other intersections are unsignalized.
4. Intersections 9, 11, 12, 13-14, and 15 analyzed using SimTraffic, an extension of
SYNCHRO, due to the unique geometry of the intersections.
There are four (4) locations that experience decreases in levels of service (LOS) as a result of the
traffic changes associated with the proposed development:
1. Eastbound on University Avenue at Thurston Avenue: The delay increases 0.4 seconds
per vehicle resulting in a change in level of service from “D” to “E” during the PM peak
hour. This a result of the background borderline condition as the threshold between LOS
“D” and “E” is 55 seconds per vehicle. This change will imperceptible to users of this
intersection.
2. Westbound on Hasbrouck Circle at Pleasant Grove Road: The delay is projected to
increase 1.5 seconds resulting in a change from LOS “B” to “C” during the PM peak hour
due to the borderline condition for this approach. The threshold between LOS “B” and
“C” is 15 seconds per vehicle. Motorists will notice very little, if any, changes in operating
conditions at this intersection as a result of the proposed housing development.
3. Southbound left turn movement on Triphammer Road at Hanshaw Road: The delay is
projected to increase 2.7 seconds resulting in a change from LOS “B” to “C” during the
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
17 June 2018
AM peak hour due to the borderline condition for this approach. The threshold between
LOS “B” and “C” is 15 seconds per vehicle. Motorists will notice very little, if any, changes
in operating conditions at this intersection as a result of the proposed housing
development.
4. Southbound left and through movements from the Express Mart driveway at Pleasant
Grove and Hanshaw Roads: These movements are expected to operate at LOS “D” and
“F” respectively with moderate to long delays (on the order of 27 to 50 seconds per
vehicle) during the AM peak hour. It is noted that the volume of traffic executing these
movements is extremely low (only 3 vph) and these operating conditions are reasonable
for this driveway.
IX. CORNELL TRANSPORTATION DEMAND MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS
Transportation Demand Management (TDM) or Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) initiatives, if
implemented strategically, can have a noticeable impact on reducing trips from a project. TDM is
the application of strategies and policies to reduce Single Occupant Vehicle (SOV) travel demand,
or to redistribute this demand in space or in time. By definition, TDM includes various strategies
that produce a more efficient use of transportation resources and increase the efficiency of a
transportation system.
TDM programs have many potential benefits. They can reduce the total number of vehicle miles
traveled by promoting alternatives to driving alone. Fewer vehicle miles traveled results in less
ozone pollution. Employers can use TDM programs to reduce overhead costs, enhance
productivity and reduce employee turnover. TDM programs can also improve the use of public
transit services, bikeways, sidewalks and carpool lanes by educating users about their travel
options and coordinating trips between users with similar trip patterns.
Cornell provides funding to TCAT to subsidize the cost of Cornell’s OmniRide bus pass available
to employees and students (first-year students receive a complimentary pass and all registered
Cornell students can ride TCAT at no fare cost after 6 p.m. weekdays and anytime Saturdays and
Sundays) as well as to enable Cornell staff and faculty to ride TCAT at no fare cost within
designated routes on and near campus. Cornell currently offers two primary TDM programs:
OmniRide and RideShare. OmniRide is a transit program where employees agree to forgo a
parking pass and in doing so gain the following benefits:
Unlimited access to TCAT buses anywhere in Tompkins County
Reduced-cost bus pass for out-of-county transit
Occasional-use, one-day parking permits
Flexible short-term parking options
Ithaca Carshare membership discount
First-year students receive the transit benefits of the OmniRide program for free. Other students
can join the program by purchasing an OmniRide pass for $200.
The RideShare commuter program is designed for Cornell employees who do not live in campus
housing and share their ride to the Ithaca campus at least three times a week. Benefits of the
program include:
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
18 June 2018
Discounted parking fees
Flexible parking options
Occasional-use, one day permits
Pre-tax payroll deduction for parking fees
Ithaca Carshare membership discounts
As of Fall 2017, the OmniRide program has approximately 5,700 undergraduate students, 4,600
graduate students, and 2,000 employees participating. The RideShare program has approximately
1,200 employee participants.
In addition to the above, Cornell currently implements or participates in the following to reduce
single-occupancy vehicle trips:
Zimride – this is a ride-sharing service that allows students to ride/travel to off-campus
destinations (i.e. going home for the holidays)
Permitted parking system on campus
Marketing transit routes in coordination with TCAT
Actively encourage students to use sustainable transportation options such as TCAT,
biking, walking
Provide bicycle storage and parking
X. CONSTRUCTION PHASE TRAFFIC CONSIDERATIONS
The effects that the proposed construction plan will have on the roadway network surrounding
North Campus will be dependent on the activities planned for each phase of construction.
Construction activities are expected to last approximately 1,155 days. Construction activities
typically stretch beyond a typical eight-hour work shift. The daily work force required is
anticipated to average approximately 140 workers. Workers will arrive to the site early morning
and depart late afternoon. It is probable that a good majority of the work force traffic will arrive
prior to the morning commuter peak and depart after the afternoon commuter peak. These are
times when ambient traffic on the network is significantly less, hence the actual effect of work
force added traffic is minimized.
Construction activities will be supported by daily deliveries of materials, supplies and
miscellaneous services. It is anticipated that this traffic will fluctuate between 10 to 20 trucks per
day, dependent on phase and time of the year. The related trips, most of which are trucks, arrive
and depart the site throughout the day. From a peak hour standpoint, this maximally adds
approximately five arrivals and departures during the morning and afternoon commuter peaks, at
the height of the construction activity. This level of increase is minimal when considering the
magnitude of existing traffic volumes already on the network. However, it is recognized that truck
traffic typically requires more time and space for maneuvering, and minor increases in delay can
be expected. No construction truck traffic is anticipated in the Forest Home and/or Cornell
Heights Neighborhoods.
Main construction access gates will be located to minimize conflicts in high pedestrian areas.
Construction vehicles will be directed to use Route 13 (a designated truck route), exit on
Triphammer Road to Hanshaw Road and take Pleasant Grove Road to access the project site.
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
19 June 2018
The University will work with the contractors to coordinate these routes in order to minimize
construction traffic impacts.
Construction workforce parking will be provided and designated in a specific location to avoid
having the workforce park at other locations within the City of Ithaca, Town of Ithaca, Village of
Cayuga Heights, or on campus. Contractor parking will be provided at the University’s
designated contractor parking location at Palm Road. Contractors will be shuttled to the site
along a designated route through campus and will be prohibited from traveling through Forest
Home.
As a result of construction activities, the actual effects to vehicular flow surrounding the site will
fluctuate dependent on tasks performed within each distinct phase. Although it is recognized that
some construction impacts will have a negative effect on the network that surrounds the site,
these effects are temporary, as they are limited to the actual duration of construction. A related
positive impact is the creation of jobs during each phase of construction.
XI. CONCLUSIONS
Based on the projected site generated traffic volumes and projected levels of service, the proposed
North Campus Residential Expansion will not have a significant adverse impact on existing traffic
operations in the area, as documented in this report. The analyses contained in this report indicate
that the existing road network can adequately accommodate the projected traffic volumes and
resulting impacts to study area intersections. The following conclusions are based upon the results
of the analyses:
1. The North Campus will see a reduction in overall parking as a result of development of this
new housing. The existing CC Lot (a 386-space parking lot on Jessup Road) will be replaced
by the sophomore housing. These parking spaces will not be replaced. Parking will be
enhanced at the RPCC to accommodate visitors and conference attendees. At both sites,
parking facilities sufficient to service ADA requirements, residence hall live-in staff, and
maintenance/delivery access will be provided. Accessible parking and service needs will be
redistributed into small lots throughout North Campus. A Lot will continue to operate as it
currently does serving as the primary satellite parking for staff as well as faculty and visitors.
2. Vehicles currently parking in CC Lot were projected to be relocated to A Lot, Hasbrouck,
Anna Comstock North Lot, and/or Hurlburt House Lot. Traffic currently entering and exiting
CC Lot during the peak hours [10(10) entering and 4(42) exiting during the AM (PM) peak
hours] were re-distributed to these four lots based upon the size of each lot and ability to
accommodate additional parked vehicles.
3. The effects of this project on the surrounding transportation network and internal circulation
system of North Campus will be minimal. The analysis contained in this report focuses on
morning and afternoon peak intervals that overlap with surrounding commuter traffic. These
are peak intervals when students are going to or coming from class. As such, very little if any
new student vehicles will be added to the surrounding system, during the critical peaks.
4. It is recognized that there will be vehicular activity related to both students and staff as a
result of the proposed development. The proposed development is expected to generate
approximately 7 entering/3 exiting vehicle trips during the weekday AM peak hour and 7
Traffic Impact Study Proposed Student Housing Cornell University
20 June 2018
entering/33 exiting vehicle trips during the PM peak hour which will be spread throughout the
transportation network.
5. Based on a review of existing pedestrian flows and student residential information, it is
estimated that approximately 210 pedestrian trips will be added to the surrounding roadway
network during the peak 15 minute time period during the A.M. commuter peak.
6. There are four (4) locations that experience decreases in levels of service (LOS) as a result
of the traffic changes associated with the proposed development:
a. Eastbound on University Avenue at Thurston Avenue: The delay increases 0.4 seconds
per vehicle resulting in a change in level of service from “D” to “E” during the PM peak
hour. This is a result of the background borderline condition as the threshold between
LOS “D” and “E” is 55 seconds per vehicle. This change will be imperceptible to users of
this intersection.
b. Westbound on Hasbrouck Circle at Pleasant Grove Road: The delay is projected to
increase 1.5 seconds resulting in a change from LOS “B” to “C” during the PM peak hour
due to the borderline condition for this approach. The threshold between LOS “B” and
“C” is 15 seconds per vehicle. Motorists will notice very little, if any, changes in operating
conditions at this intersection as a result of the proposed housing development.
c. Southbound left turn movement on Triphammer Road at Hanshaw Road: The delay is
projected to increase 2.7 seconds resulting in a change from LOS “B” to “C” during the
AM peak hour due to the borderline condition for this approach. The threshold between
LOS “B” and “C” is 15 seconds per vehicle. Motorists will notice very little, if any, changes
in operating conditions at this intersection as a result of the proposed housing
development.
d. Southbound left and through movements from the Express Mart driveway at Pleasant
Grove and Hanshaw Roads: These movements are expected to operate at LOS “D” and
“F” respectively with moderate to long delays (on the order of 27 to 50 seconds per
vehicle) during the AM peak hour. It is noted that the volume of traffic executing these
movements is extremely low (only 3 vph) and these operating conditions are reasonable
for this driveway.
7. Continue to promote and implement Transportation Demand Management (TDM) actions,
all the while continuing to advance the goals and strategies outlined in the June 2008 Cornell
University Transportation Impact Mitigation Strategies report and seek to develop new
programs/policies as information and technology becomes available.
8. The proposed project will not result in any potentially significant adverse traffic impacts to
the study area intersections.

1 PROJECT OVERVIEW
Cornell University (“Cornell”) engaged Kimley‐Horn of New York, P.C. (“Kimley‐Horn”) to prepare
a circulation study of the existing North Campus transportation system (see Figure 1, attached).
The purpose of the study was to evaluate current and future transportation constraints to
develop solutions for mobility challenges facing vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle, and Tompkins
Consolidated Area Transit (TCAT) modes. This study focused on improving safety, wayfinding,
and circulation for the North Campus area and three (3) priority areas identified by Cornell –
Thurston Avenue between Wait Avenue and Cradit Farm Drive; Pleasant Grove Road between
Jessup Road and Cradit Farm Drive; and Jessup Road between Triphammer Road and Pleasant
Grove Road.
The purpose of this existing conditions report is to document the visual observations made
during the site visit to North Campus and to summarize the operating conditions of the existing
transportation system elements (e.g., intersection and pedestrian levels of service).
2 BACKGROUND
North Campus Residential Expansion
Cornell’s recent Housing Master Plan proposed the addition of 2,000 beds on North Campus by
fall 2022. This North Campus Residential Expansion (NCRE) will be constructed in two phases
with the first phase — Sophomore — to be completed in fall 2021, and the second phase —First
Year — to be completed in fall 2022. To accommodate this new growth, the university will utilize
the existing CC parking lot for the Sophomore building site and the recreation fields above the
Appel Commons for the First Year Student Housing.
The North Campus Residential Expansion Architecture and Engineering Design Team is leading
the design for the internal roadways, pedestrian pathways, and new parking lots between the
existing housing and proposed housing units. A traffic engineering consulting firm, SRF
Associates, was retained to prepare a transportation impact analysis (TIA) for the NCRE project.
Data and analysis from this TIA were reviewed by Kimley‐Horn and the results are summarized
in other sections of this report.

3 FIELD OBSERVATIONS
Kimley‐Horn conducted field observations throughout North Campus on March 19 and 20, 2018.
These observations consisted of walking along the sidewalks and driving along the area
roadways to make visual observations and perform spot manual pedestrian counts during peak
periods. During the visual observation, a limited evaluation of ADA accessible paths of travel was
also conducted. Below is a summary of the visual observations.
3.1 Description of Study Area
Jessup Road (Cornell owned)
Jessup Road is a two‐lane undivided roadway which generally runs east‐west between
Triphammer Road and Pleasant Grove Road and is maintained by Cornell University. The
shoulder width on the south side of the road appears to be wide enough for a bicycle lane, but is
not marked or signed as such, and there is a separate pedestrian path. The shoulder width on
the north side of the road appears to be wide enough for a bicycle lane, but is not marked or
signed as such, and a parking lane, which is signed “Loading Zone 30‐minute Limit.” A separate
sidewalk is not present on the north side of the road. There are curbside bus pull‐out stops in
various locations along the north and south sides of the road. The posted speed limit is 30 mph
and there are several mid‐block pedestrian crossings.
Cradit Farm Drive (Cornell Owned)
Cradit Farm Drive is a two‐lane undivided roadway which generally runs east‐west between
Thurston Avenue and Pleasant Grove Road and is maintained by Cornell University. Except for
the section of roadway adjacent to Helen Newman Hall, the shoulder width on the south and
north sides of the road appear to be wide enough for a bicycle lane, but is marked and signed
inconsistently. There are sidewalks on both sides of the road from Thurston Avenue to just east
of Helen Newman Hall. There is a curbside bus pull‐out on the south and north sides of the road
just east of Helen Newman Hall. The posted speed limit is 25 mph and there are several mid‐
block pedestrian crossings.
Thurston Avenue/Wait Avenue/Triphammer Road (City of Ithaca Owned)
In general, Thurston Avenue/Wait Avenue/Triphammer Road are two‐lane undivided roadways
which run north‐south between Cradit Farm Drive and Jessup Road and are maintained by the
City of Ithaca. Thurston Avenue has bicycle lanes from Fall Creek to Wait Avenue, but these
bicycle lanes do not extend further along Thurston Avenue or north along Wait Avenue or
Triphammer Road. Sidewalks are provided along both sides of these streets, with the exception
of the east side of Triphammer Road from Northcross Road/Sisson Place to Jessup Road. There is
a curbside bus pull‐out on the east and west sides of Thurston Avenue, north of Cradit Farm
Drive. Other bus stops are located along the side of the road and indicated by a sign. The posted
speed limit is 30 mph along each of these roadways and there is one mid‐block crossing located
along Thurston Avenue, just south of Cradit Farm Drive.
Pleasant Grove Road (Tompkins County Owned)
Pleasant Grove Road is a two‐lane undivided roadway which generally runs north‐south
between Cradit Farm Drive and Jessup Road and is maintained by Tompkins County. The
North Campus Residential Expansion Circulation Study

shoulder widths on the east and west sides of the road do not appear wide enough for bicycle
lanes and are not marked or striped as such. Sidewalks are provided along both sides of Pleasant
Grove Road. There is one bus stop located along the side of the road at the intersection with
Jessup Road. The posted speed limit is 30 mph and there are no mid‐block crossings.
North Campus Pedestrian Paths
North Campus is served by a network of paths which, in addition to the sidewalks adjacent to
the above roadways, connect the Fall Creek crossings with the many and various buildings on
North Campus. This network also serves to connect the various components of the North
Campus themselves. The paths are mostly constructed of Asphalt and vary in width from 5 to 11
feet. They are generally moderately sloped, although some, especially on the east side of Wait
Avenue have steep grades.
3.2 General Operations Observation
Although Kimley‐Horn’s observations did not discover any current capacity constraints, a
number of locations were identified where there was a considerable amount of conflict
between pedestrian traffic and vehicular traffic, as well as with bus traffic and bicycle traffic.
These locations, which are shown on Figure 2 (attached), included:
The mid‐block crossing of Thurston Avenue just south of Cradit Farm Drive
The mid‐block crossing of Cradit Farm Drive just east of Thurston Avenue
Pedestrians crossing Thurston Avenue on the north side of Cradit Farm Drive and on the
south side of Wait Avenue (on either side of the bus stops on Thurston Avenue at that
location)
The mid‐block crossing of Cradit Farm Drive just west of Helen Newman Hall
The intersection of Jessup Road with Triphammer Road
It is noted that the 30‐mph speed limit to which Thurston Avenue, Wait Avenue and
Triphammer Road (from Jessup Road south) are subject is not appropriate for the number and
level of pedestrian, vehicular and bicycle conflicts on these streets. The lowest permissible
speed limit than can be posted is 25 mph (per New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law). This
speed limit is posted for Cradit Farm Drive and Northcross Road (though some additional
signage is required).
3.3 Pedestrian and Bicycle Accommodations
Below is a summary of the pedestrian accommodations throughout North Campus.
Sidewalks exist throughout most of North Campus
Missing sidewalks are most noticeable at the following locations:
o along the north side of Jessup Road;
o along the east side of Triphammer Road between Northcross Road/Sisson Place
and Jessup Road;
o along Cradit Farm Drive from east of Helen Newman Hall to the north side of
the tennis courts at Appel Fields;
North Campus Residential Expansion Circulation Study
Existing Conditions
April 2018

o various locations along Northcross Road and Sisson Place;
o behind Kay Hall and Mary Donlon Hall; and
o along Program House Drive.
Several sidewalk locations show signs of cracking and upheaval, which creates tripping
hazards and uncomfortable travel conditions for pedestrians, bicyclists, and people in
wheelchairs
The sidewalks are a mixture of concrete and asphalt materials
The width of sidewalks generally varies from 5’ to 13’
Most crosswalks are marked with either paint or a textured material (e.g., brick or brick
paver), although there are several crosswalks and crossings that are unmarked:
o The condition of these marked crosswalks varies from missing or faded paint
lines to uneven textured surfaces
o A few mid‐block crossing locations are not clearly marked or defined
o A few ‘major‐street’ crossing locations are not clearly marked or defined
Several pedestrian crossing locations do not have curb ramps
Many of the curb ramps are in poor shape or do not have detectable warning surfaces
Pedestrian crossing signs (W11‐2) are provided at some crossing locations, but not all,
and a few of the existing signs are not the most current version required by the MUTCD
Below is a summary of the bicycle accommodations throughout North Campus.
Bicycle lanes are marked along portions of Thurston Avenue, Jessup Road, and Cradit
Farm Drive, however, the signs and markings are inconsistent with the MUTCD (in some
cases, the shoulder widths are not sufficient to accommodate cyclists)
No ‘sharrows’ were observed within the study area
Several bicycle racks were observed throughout the study area at various campus
buildings
3.4 Lighting
Kimley‐Horn drove through the study area on the evening of March 19, 2018, to visually observe
the lighting levels along the study area roadways. These observations were high‐level and did
not include using a light meter to take light level measurements. Street lights were observed
along each of the study area roadways, except for Pleasant Grove Road. Per Cornell, some of
these light poles were installed within the past 12‐18 months. Some of the luminaires were
observed not to be lighted and a number of roads and paths appeared to have sections which
were not well lit.

3.5 ADA Assessment
As part of the review of current conditions, visual observations were made of all sidewalks, curb
ramps, and bus stops within the study area. Based on these observations, many of these
infrastructure elements do not comply with ADA Standards or PROWAG. The deficiencies
include:
Sidewalks with tripping hazards due to cracks and upheaval;
Curb ramps missing detectable warning surfaces;
Missing curb ramps at marked crosswalk locations;
There are steps with no ramp to get around them on the sidewalk between Mews Hall
and JAM and Ujamaa Halls which makes it impassable for disabled pedestrians, and
Bus stops without appropriate loading areas (e.g., the bus stop located at the southeast
corner of Jessup Road & Triphammer Road has no sidewalk leading to the bus stop area
along Triphammer Road).
It should be noted that this ADA assessment did not include the use of a smart level to measure
the slopes of these elements.
3.6 Pavement Conditions
As part of the review of current conditions, visual observations were made of the existing
pavement conditions within the study area. Based on these observations, several roadways have
significant cracking or rutting within the wheel paths (e.g., along Triphammer Road and Wait
Avenue, at bus stop on the west side of Thurston Avenue north of Cradit Farm Drive).
3.7 TCAT Bus Stops
As part of our review of current conditions, visual observations were made of the bus stops
within the study area. Based on these observations, the conditions of the bus stops vary. The
bus stops with shelters are generally in good condition, but the shelters are basic in nature. The
bus stops which are not located within a curbside bus pull‐out are generally located along the
side of the road within a grassy area. These bus stop locations do not have shelters, benches, or
defined loading/unloading areas.
The most heavily utilized bus stop was observed to be on the north side of Cradit Farm Drive,
just east of Helen Newman Hall. However, the bus shelter is located at the beginning of the
curbside bus pull‐out and is not generally occupied. During the peak periods, the number of
TCAT riders trying to board at this location was observed to reach upwards of 25‐30 people.
3.8 Traffic Control
The intersection of Northcross Road with the Sisson Place access to the loading docks has an
unconventional control (southbound and westbound approaches are controlled by a STOP sign
while the northbound approach is uncontrolled).

3.9 Wayfinding
Certain wayfinding signs out on the northeast perimeter of North Campus do not have lettering
sufficiently large to be read by motorists without stopping and the A‐lot is not signed for visitor
parking on weekends.

4 ANALYSIS RESULTS
Kimley‐Horn conducted sidewalk capacity analyses for the sidewalks on either side of the
Thurston Avenue Bridge, for the Triphammer footbridge, for the sidewalks on either side of
Cradit Farm Drive between Thurston Avenue and the parking lot serving Helen Newman Hall, as
well as for the sidewalks that extends from the Balch Hall courtyard to the intersection of Cradit
Farm Drive with Thurston Avenue. Kimley‐Horn also reviewed the intersection capacity
analyses performed by SRF Associates to ascertain current intersection performance at the
following intersections:
Thurston Avenue with Cradit Farm Road
Thurston Avenue with Wait Avenue
Wait Avenue with Triphammer Road
Triphammer Road with Jessup Road
Jessup Road with Pleasant Grove Road, and
Pleasant Grove Road with Cradit Farm Road
4.1 Pedestrian Capacity Analyses
Kimley‐Horn has performed an analysis of the existing‐conditions pedestrian operations for
multiple facilities on Cornell University’s North Campus. The pedestrian operations analysis was
performed using methodology published in the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) for calculating
the level‐of‐service (LOS) of exclusive pedestrian facilities (HCM, 6th Edition, Chapter 24: Off‐
Street Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities).
Sidewalk performance is assessed based on a letter scale, with LOS A representing the best
operating conditions (when pedestrians can walk almost unimpeded) while LOS F represents the
worst operating conditions (where pedestrians have difficulty negotiating past pedestrians
passing in the opposite direction and without being slowed by pedestrians walking in the same
direction).
Table 1 presents the range of densities and flow rates that correspond with each LOS1.
Table 1
Platoon Adjusted Level-of-Service Criteria for Walkways

(ft2/p)
Flow Rate
(p/min/ft)
A >530 ≤0.5
1 Due to the intermittent nature of pedestrian activity caused by the class transition schedule, the conservative platoon‐adjusted
LOS criteria were used for determining sidewalk operating conditions. Platoon‐adjusted LOS is measured as the average space per
pedestrian and the average flow rate over a 5‐minute interval.

Pedestrian volume spot counts were performed along the Thurston Avenue bridge on March 20,
2018 from 9:50 AM – 10:05 AM, in 5‐minute intervals, during a transition interval between
classes which is representative of the average peak demand on the pedestrian facilities (as well
as at other times). Kimley‐Horn also reviewed the data provided by SRF Associates and
additional data obtained to supplement the SRF data2.
The estimated level of 15‐minute pedestrian traffic activity is presented graphically on Figure 3.
As can be seen from the figure, between 300 and 400 pedestrians are estimated to cross Fall
Creek on the Triphammer footbridge or the Thurston Avenue Bridge (a total of 665 pedestrians
were recorded in the busiest 15 minutes surveyed). The sidewalks leading up to Balch Hall sees
between 200 and 300 pedestrians in the peak 15 minutes, while the sidewalks leading up either
side of Cradit Farm Drive see somewhere between 100 and 200 pedestrians per 15 minutes.
Sidewalk/footbridge capacities, calculated using the Highway Capacity Manual developed by the
Transportation Research Board put the capacity of the Triphammer footbridge at approximately
1,600 pedestrians every 15 minutes while either side of the Thurston Avenue bridge was
calculated to be able to accommodate approximately 1,900 pedestrians every 15 minutes.
Similarly, the sidewalks on either side of Cradit Farm Drive, just east of Balch Hall and of the
sidewalk that comes out from the Balch Hall Courtyard were calculated to have a capacity of
approximately 950 pedestrians every 15 minutes and 2,150 pedestrians per 15 minutes,
respectively.
Based on the estimated level of pedestrian activity (which is presented in Figure 3), it was
calculated that the Triphammer Footbridge normally operates at approximately 20 percent of
capacity, the sidewalk on the east side of the Thurston Avenue bridge normally operates at
approximately 17 percent of capacity, while the sidewalk on the west side of the Thurston
Avenue bridge normally operates at just 2.5 percent of capacity. Considering that on March 20,
when approximately 620 pedestrians were observed to cross the east side of the Thurston
Avenue Bridge (with the Triphammer Footbridge Closed), North Campus pedestrian traffic was
easily able to be accommodated (almost exclusively) on the east side of the Thurston Avenue
2 It is noted that, at the time of the counts, the adjacent Triphammer Falls pedestrian bridge was closed. The Thurston Avenue and
Triphammer Falls bridges are parallel walking routes with similar travel times (no more than 1minute difference); therefore, all or
most of the typical Triphammer Falls pedestrian traffic likely diverted to the Thurston Avenue east sidewalk while the closure was in
place. Using the SRF data (recorded when the Triphammer Footbridge was open), the observed pedestrian volumes were adjusted
to reflect normal operating conditions.

bridge, it is clear that, with the Triphammer footbridge restored to operation, the two crossings
of Fall Creek are operating well within their carrying capacity.
Based on the estimated level of pedestrian activity, it was calculated that the sidewalk on the
south side of Cradit Farm Drive, just east of Balch Hall, operates at approximately 12 percent of
capacity while the sidewalk on the opposite side of Cradit farm Road operates at 14 percent of
capacity. The sidewalk that leads to Balch Hall was also calculated to operate at 12 percent of
capacity, although that percentage would be higher in the passage up the steps to the entrance
to Balch Hall’s courtyard.
A summary of the estimated sidewalk Levels of Service is presented graphically in Figure 4. As
can be seen from the figure, all of the sidewalks analyzed operate at Level‐of‐Service C or better,
indicating that pedestrians have little difficulty in walking to, from or around North campus.
4.2 Intersection Capacity Analyses
A summary of current peak‐15‐minute pedestrian and vehicular traffic activity at key
intersections on North Campus is provided in Figure 3. As can be seen from the figure, only the
intersections of Pleasant Grove Road experience peak15‐minute traffic volumes in excess of 200
vehicles, with between 150 and 200 vehicles encountered at the intersection of Thurston
Avenue with Cradit Farm Drive and fewer than 150 vehicles encountered at the remaining
intersections.
Intersection performance is also assessed based on a letter scale, with LOS A
representing the best operating conditions (when motorists can proceed almost
unimpeded) while LOS F represents the worst operating conditions (where motorists
have difficulty finding acceptable gaps in the passing traffic stream to enter or exit the
roadway).
Table 2 presents the range of vehicle delays that correspond with each LOS for
unsignalized intersections.
Table 2
Unsignalized Level-of-Service Criteria for Intersections
A review of SRF’s intersection capacity analysis summary revealed that each of the six study
intersections is currently operating well within capacity, as all are functioning at LOS C or better.
The SRF LOS results are presented graphically in Figure 4. As can be seen from the figure, the
North Campus Residential Expansion Circulation Study
Existing Conditions

intersections of Thurston Avenue with Cradit Farm Drive and Wait Avenue, as well as the
intersections of Pleasant Grove Road with Jessup Road and Cradit Farm Drive are all operating at
LOS C, while the remaining intersections are operating at LOS B or better.
4.3 Crash History
Historical crash data for the study area for the six‐year period from 2012 to 2017 were obtained
from the New York State Department of Transportation3 (NYSDOT) and from the Cornell
University Campus Planning Department4. The crash data were reviewed and tabulated
according to location and are summarized in Table 3 below. During the six‐year period, a total of
55 crashes occurred in the study area, with one crash resulting in a fatality and injuries occurring
in only 4 crashes. Pedestrians were involved in 4 of the crashes (including the fatal crash) and 1
crash involved a bicyclist.
3 The NYSDOT crash records covered the three‐year period from 10/1/2014 to 9/30/2017.
4 The Cornell University crash records covered the five‐year period from 1/1/2012 to 12/31/2016.

A more detailed analysis of the data was performed for six (6) of the locations highlighted above
in which there were a notable number of crashes at key north campus gateways or crashes that
involved pedestrians or bicyclists. The crash records were then further tabulated by collision
type (rear‐end, right‐angle, fixed object, etc.) which is presented in Table 4 below. As shown in
the table, there were a total of 39crashes at the six (6) key locations, with the most crashes (13)
occurring at the intersection of Jessup Road with Pleasant Grove Road. At this location, 3
crashes involved collisions with fixed objects, 3 crashes were categorized as “other”, and rear
end and right‐angle collisions were involved in 2 crashes each. Sideswipe, overtaking, and
animal collisions were involved in 1 crash each.
As shown in the Table 4, there were a total of 11 crashes at the intersection of Thurston Avenue
with Cradit Farm Drive. Of these crashes, 2 involved pedestrians and one involved a bicyclist. Of
the remaining crashes, 3 were listed as “other,” two were rear‐end crashes, and one each were
right turn, overtaking, and fixed object crashes. The number of crashes at the remaining
locations were all in the single digits, two of which involved pedestrians; one at an unspecified
location on Cradit Farm Drive and the second, which resulted in a fatality, at the intersection of
Northcross Road with Jessup Road.
The fatal crash occurred on Monday January 26, 2015, at 7:21 a.m. NYSDOT records indicate
that a bus traveling southbound from A Lot on Northcross Road turned to the east (left) onto
Jessup Road and struck a pedestrian who was crossing Jessup Road. The road surface condition
at the time was noted as “snow/ice” and the apparent factors contributing to the crash were
listed as “view obstructed/limited” and “unknown” for the bus driver and “pedestrian’s
error/confusion” and “not applicable” for the pedestrian.
While the fatal crash at the intersection of Northcross Road with Jessup Road was clearly tragic,
it was the only crash at this location and, based on the information available, there appears to
be no discernable contributory factor that is a correctable condition. Of the remaining crashes,
as indicated in Table 4, it appears that there is no discernible pattern of crash type that would

of Thurston Avenue with Cradit Farm Drive, where there were three crashes involving
pedestrians or bicyclists during the six‐year period.

The Cornell University North Campus Transportation Improvements project (hereafter referred to as
“the Project”) involves upgrades to transportation infrastructure within Cornell’s North Campus. The
project site is located at the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road intersection. Project elements
include pavement reconstruction, new sidewalks and pedestrian paths, “Complete Streets” treatments
such as enhanced pedestrian crossings, utility upgrades and relocations, and landscape / streetscape
upgrades.
The Project is being implemented, in part, to support Cornell University’s North Campus Residential
Expansion Project which involves construction of approximately 2,000 new beds, as well as new dining
and recreational spaces, within the North Campus. The North Campus Residential Expansion
Transportation Feasibility Study was completed in June 2018 and identified several Priority Areas within
the North Campus for recommended improvements to benefit safety and mobility for multi-modal
and vehicular users. The Project proposes transportation improvements at one of the Priority Areas
identified in the Feasibility Study (Priority Area #2 – Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road
intersection) and is generally consistent with the study’s recommendations.
The proposed transportation improvements will address deficiencies in the existing infrastructure and
improve safety and mobility for all users, particularly pedestrians, bicyclists and transit users. In
addition, the project addresses an identified major gateway to the campus at Pleasant Grove Road &
Cradit Farm Drive.
This report has been prepared to accompany the Project’s DesignDevelopment plans, and addresses
project elements including Project Goals, Design Considerations, Environmental Considerations,
Schedule and Cost. Additional information, where noted, is included in Appendices.
1. Program Goals
The following goals have been identified for the Project:
Address transportation needs for the proposed North Campus Residential Expansion Project.
Improve the condition and address deficiencies of existing transportation infrastructure including
pavement, sidewalks and trails.
Improve safety and mobility for pedestrians, bicyclists, transit users and vehicles.
Provide traffic calming features to slow / reduce vehicular traffic and therefore benefit safety for
non-motorized users.
Reduce “thru” traffic traveling through the Forest Home neighborhood on Pleasant Grove Rd.
2. Project Limits
Project limits for the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road work areas are depicted in Figures 1. A
description of the project limits is as follows:
Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road Improvements

3. Relationship to Other Projects
Two Cornell University capital projects are planned in the project area and will require coordination
with the North Campus Transportation Improvements project.
North Campus Residential Expansion Project
Cornell’s North Campus Residential Expansion Project (NCRE) will add 2,000 beds for 1st and 2nd year
students, along with new dining and recreational spaces. 1st year housing is planned in the area of the
existing Appel fields, north and west of Cradit Farm Drive. 2nd year housing is planned for the current
CC Lot site near the intersection of Triphammer Road and Jessup Road. Substantial completion of the
NCRE project is expected in late 2021. Coordination will be required between NCRE and the Cradit
Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road intersection improvements to match grades, road & sidewalk
alignments, as well as to avoid overlapping construction activities. It is anticipated that the intersection
improvements would be constructed after the NCRE project is completed.
Balch Hall Renovation
Cornell plans to renovate Balch Hall and the surrounding grounds to improve accessibility, with
completion estimated in 2021. The Balch Hall project limits extend to the sidewalks along Thurston
Avenue and Cradit Farm Drive.

1. Design Standards
The following design standards and guidelines will be used for the Project:
Cornell University Design Standards
New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) Highway Design Manual, Standard Sheets
and Standard Specifications
Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG)
Public Right of Way Accessibility Guidelines (PROWAG)
American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) A Policy on
Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (“Green Book”)
Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD)
Recommended Standards for Wastewater Facilities (“10 State Standards”)
New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) SPDES General Permit for
Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activity
Cornell University Design Standards and Construction Details will be used unless otherwise noted.
Cornell’s design criteria noted that the project should include provisions for internal circulation
(pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular) that is complete, coherent, and connected to surrounding
circulation systems. “Pedestrian circulation needs to take priority, and all pedestrian facilities should be
sized correctly, well-lit, and well-constructed. Landscapes, public spaces and circulation should
enhance the experience on North Campus.”
2. Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road Intersection Improvements
The Cornell University Signage and Wayfinding Plan notes that a majority of traffic coming from the
airport and other areas north of campus navigates to Cornell through the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant
Grove Road intersection. The proposed gateway would reduce “through” traffic traveling through the
Forest Home neighborhood by clearly indicating that all University traffic should continue on Cradit
Farm Drive towards the Thurston Avenue intersection and Tang Welcome Center.
The intersection improvements are designed to give pedestrian traffic priority while slowing vehicular
traffic, and provide a gateway for Cornell University. The Forest Home gateway pillars are proposed to
be relocated to the lower portion of Pleasant Grove Road past the new gateway intersection with
Cradit Farm Drive.
In addition to improved pedestrian crossings, the pedestrian network will be expanded to connect to
the existing pedestrian network of North Campus. This includes connections to the new North Campus
Residential Housing, the trail system at Bebe Lake, and Hasbrouck Apartments.
Fire access from Pleasant Grove Road to the North Campus Residential Housing will be shifted to align
with Hasbrouck Circle, in the former location of Cradit Farm Drive. This allows the fire access to be
separated from the pedestrian crossing at Hasbrouck Circle, and the pedestrian connection can also
be ADA compliant.
Refer to Drawings in Appendix A for proposed work at the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road
intersection.

One intersection alternative has been developed for the Design Development phase. This alternative
involves the realignment of Pleasant Grove Road and relocation of the Cradit Farm Drive intersection
approximately 400 feet south of the existing intersection. The northern leg of Pleasant Grove Road
would continue straight through to Cradit Farm Drive, so that the resulting roadway is the “through”
street. The eastern leg of Pleasant Grove Road would terminate at the new intersection with Cradit
Farm Drive, with a modern roundabout intersection control(Yield control for all approaches). The
intersection realignment is proposed to address existing concerns, including:
Increase efficiency and reduce delay for dominant traffic movements between Pleasant Grove
Road north leg and Cradit Farm Drive
Reduce “through” traffic traveling along Pleasant Grove Road east leg, to and from the Forest
Home neighborhood
Provide opportunities for gateway features for the Cornell campus and Forest Home
neighborhood.
The following project elements are proposed and apply to the intersection alternative:
Pavement reconstruction: the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road intersection will be
reconstructed, as well as the adjacent road segments. New pavement and curbing will be
installed.
Sidewalks: New concrete sidewalks will be installed along Pleasant Grove Road north of the
intersection. The existing asphalt trail along Cradit Farm Drive will be extended to the new
intersection.
Bicycle Lanes: Five foot wide bicycle lanes are proposed along Pleasant Grove Road (north
segment) and Cradit Farm Drive within the project limits.
Drainage Improvements: A new drainage system including catch basins and segments of trunk
lines will be installed to serve the new intersection and road segments. The new system would
connect to existing drainage systems.
Utilities: Significant utility work, including horizontal and vertical relocation, is required to
accommodate the new road and intersection alignments and changes in grade, as the proposed
intersection would be approximately four feet lower than the existing grade. The following utilities
require relocation within the project area:
o Water
o Sanitary Sewer
o Gas
o Electric (underground and overhead)
o Cable / communication (overhead)
Lighting: New light poles and fixtures will be installed to illuminate the intersection and
approaches. The proposed lighting fixtures and design would be consistent with lighting systems
planned for the NCRE project.
Signs and Pavement Markings: New pavement markings and traffic control signs will be installed
within the project limits.
Landscape/Streetscape/Gateway Features: New landscaping and streetscape elements will be
installed within the project limits. A small number of trees along Cradit Farm Drive would be
impacted by the project. Existing decorative light poles and pedestals on Pleasant Grove Road,
denoting the boundary of the Forest Home neighborhood, will be relocated. Additional gateway
treatments will be considered during detailed design.
Preliminary feedback from Cornell University, Tompkins County and Town of Ithaca stakeholders
indicate a preference for the Roundabout intersection alternative, provided that jurisdiction and
maintenance responsibilities can be agreed upon by all parties (see Section B.9: Items of Potential
Concern).

3. Subsurface Investigations
Subsurface investigations including pavement cores and soil borings were completed to assess
existing pavement and soil conditions at the Thurston Avenue and Cradit Farm Drive / Pleasant Grove
Road project areas. The investigations were performed to aid in pavement design as well as verify that
groundwater and bedrock are not present within the areas of planned disturbance.
Refer to Appendix B for the following documents summarizing the subsurface investigations:
Geotechnical Engineering Design Memorandum prepared by LaBella, dated October 9, 2019
Pavement Evaluation Report prepared by LaBella, dated October 2019
4. Pavement Design
Refer to Appendix B for the Pavement Evaluation Report, which documents existing pavement
conditions and the proposed pavement design. A summary of the report is presented herein.
Existing pavement conditions were verified through field visits and subsurface investigations
(pavement cores). Pavement conditions are generally poor to fair, with alligator, transverse,
longitudinal and edge cracking noted at various locations. Existing pavement sections are as follows:
Cradit Farm Drive – 5.75” to 6” combined top course and binder course HMA; Pleasant Grove Road – 7”
combined top course, binder course and base course HMA. Subgrade material is generally
brown/gray coarse to fine sand with some gravel.
Equivalent Single Axle Load (ESAL) calculations were performed based on the expected vehicle
loading to determine the recommended pavement section. The recommended pavement section was
determined to be 6.5” HMA over 12” of stone subbase.
Considering the existing pavement condition, generally inadequate existing pavement thickness, and
desire to achieve an extended service life of 20+ years, reconstruction of pavement within the project
area is recommended. Two alternatives for new pavement section were considered:
NYSDOT Comprehensive Pavement Design Manual Methodology: 12” stone subbase, 3” asphalt
base course, 2” asphalt binder course, 1.5” asphalt top course.
Cornell Heavy Duty Pavement Section: Filter fabric Mirafi 500X or equivalent, 15” stone subbase,
4.5” asphalt binder course, 1.5” asphalt top course.
The NYSDOT pavement section includes asphalt base course yet is slightly less expensive than the
Cornell section. Therefore, the NYSDOT pavement section of 6.5” total asphalt courses and 12” stone
subbase course is recommended for all pavement reconstruction areas in this project.
5. Environmental Considerations
Stormwater Management: The Project will conform to standards and requirements of the
NYSDEC State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit program. Specific
requirements for Water Quality and Water Quantity treatment will be reviewed during Detailed
Design phases. A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is required and will be prepared
during Detailed Design phases.
Erosion Control: An erosion and sediment control plan will be prepared during Detailed Design
phases.
Green Infrastructure: Green infrastructure practices (such as rain gardens, bioswales and
permeable pavement surfaces) will be considered during Detailed Design phases.
Hazardous Materials: It is assumed that hazardous materials such as asbestos and petroleum will
not be encountered within the project area.

6. Landscape and Streetscape
Landscape improvements are proposed at the project location and will include a plant palate to
provide seasonal interest coinciding with points during the academic year. The locations of proposed
improvements and plant masses have been chosen with consideration for maintenance, drought, and
tolerance for salt and deer. Trees, shrubs, perennials and grasses will be selected from those currently
used on campus with a track record for high performance, and will be installed per Cornell University
Standard Details.
Hardscape materials will consist of those widely used on campus that have a record of high
performance given the harsh winter conditions. This also provides consistency as one moves across
campus. Proposed materials will include but are not limited to concrete pavement, granite pavers,
granite seating walls, granite setts and asphalt pavement. Site furnishings and site lighting will also be
consistent with Cornell Design Standards and will be consistent with others within the North Campus.
Installation of hardscape, site furnishings and lighting will be per Cornell Standard Details.
Refer to Landscape Drawings in Appendix A for proposed landscape concept designs.
7. Wayfinding and Gateway Signage
Signage will be designed and located based on recommendations of the Cornell University Signage
and Wayfinding Plan 2016. Proposed signage includes gateway signage at the Cradit Farm Drive &
Pleasant Grove Road intersection, wayfinding signage for pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular traffic, and
banners.
Refer to Landscape Drawings in Appendix A for sample wayfinding and gateway signage concepts.
8. Zoning / Code Analysis / Property Rights
Conformance to Existing Plans: The Project is consistent with the Cornell University Master Plan,
specifically Part II.3.IV.a – North Campus. The project is also consistent with Cornell’s North Campus
Residential Expansion Transportation Feasibility Study and Signage and Wayfinding Plan 2016.
Zoning and Municipal Approvals: The Project will conform to all required municipal coordination
and approvals, which may include the Town of Ithaca (Site Plan Approval).
Right-of-way: Modifications to existing right-of-way are expected to be required at the Cradit
Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road intersection due to the new roadway and intersection
alignment. The Project may result in transfers of land from Cornell to Tompkins County and vice-
versa to establish new right-of-way for the re-aligned Pleasant Grove Road. Final right-of-way
boundaries will be determined during Detailed Design phases.
Existing right-of-way maps (tax maps) are included in Appendix D.
9. Constructability / Work Zone Traffic Control
The proposed project will require coordination with other Cornell capital projects as well as
consideration of the school schedule to minimize impacts to Cornell and other local traffic. Vehicular
and pedestrian traffic would need to be maintained through the work areas to the extent practicable,
Work zone traffic control design will be advanced during the Detailed Design phases. Construction of
the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road intersection in particular may require temporary closures
during construction of the roundabout. If concrete pavement is used within the project areas, vehicular

traffic may be restricted during the curing process. Detour routes would require coordination with
owners of the affected roadways including the City of Ithaca, Town of Ithaca and Tompkins County.
Temporary pavement or sidewalks may be required to maintain vehicular and pedestrian traffic
through or around the work areas.
10. Items of Potential Concern
The following items have been identified as requiring additional coordination or consideration as the
project is progressed into detailed design:
Maintenance Jurisdiction: Several entities have ownership and maintenance jurisdiction over the
roadways within the project limits. Coordination will be required throughout the Detailed Design
phases to ensure ownership and maintenance responsibilities are agreed upon by all parties.
Table 1 summarizes the existing ownership & maintenance jurisdiction for roadways within the
project limits.

The proposed intersection of Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road is of particular concern
with respect to ownership and maintenance jurisdiction. The Town of Ithaca and Tompkins County
have indicated a preference against maintaining specialty features associated with a roundabout
including islands, landscaping and gateway features. If the roundabout alternative is selected,
Cornell would likely assume maintenance responsibility for the roundabout features, while the
Town of Ithaca would continue to be responsible for snow removal and basic pavement
maintenance.
Ownership and maintenance jurisdiction for utilities within the project area are not expected to
change as a result of the project.
Utility Impacts: The proposed re-alignment of the Cradit Farm Drive & Pleasant Grove Road
intersection is expected to result in the need for horizontal and vertical relocation of utilities within
the project area. Coordination is required with the various utility owners through the Detailed
Design phases.

BACKGROUND
This report evaluates three roadways associated
with the Cornell University North Campus
Transportation Improvement Project. Thurston
Avenue (Cradit Farm Drive to Wait Avenue)
including a portion of Cradit Farm Drive, Pleasant
Grove Road and Cradit Farm Drive at the
intersection with Hasbrouck Circle.
The subject roadways are considered an urban
local road under the functional classification
system.
Project limits along Thurston Avenue extend
from just south of Cradit Farm Drive to Just north
of Wait Avenue, approximately 300 feet of
roadway. Thurston Avenue, Cradit Farm Drive and Pleasant Grove Road all have horizontal alignments
comprised of with gentle curvature and rolling vertical alignments. Within the subject limits, daily traffic
volumes along the roadways are approximately 6,500 vehicles. Stormwater runoff is accommodated via
closed drainage systems with the exception of Pleasant Grove Road which has a portion of roadway with
sheet flow to roadside terrain and ditches.
Information on the original pavement structure is not available.
A series of pavement cores were obtained to determine the existing pavement structure. The pavement
section for Thurston Avenue consists of a Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) layer varying in depth from 3” to 4” of
combined top course and binder course materials. Cradit Farm Drive pavement section consists of 5.75”
to 6” of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) of combined top course and binder course materials. Pleasant Grove
Road is comprised of 7” of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) of combined top, binder and base courses. The
native subgrade material is comprised of brown/gray coarse to fine sand with some gravel. It is
assumed from the native material composition that the working Resilient Modulus (Mr) is 5,500 psi for
Thurston Road and 6,000 psi for the Cradit Farm Drive/Pleasant Grove Road area.
EXISTING CONDITION
Pavement surface conditions were evaluated in June 2018 in accordance with NYSDOT’s Comprehensive
Pavement Design Manual, (CPDM). The pavement condition can be described as being in poor to fair
condition.
Travel lane distresses noted include the following:
Moderate alligator cracking along Thurston Avenue at Wait Avenue.
Locations with mixed transverse and longitudinal cracking along Cradit Farm Drive.
Edge cracking along the curbline on Cradit Farm Drive.
Project
Area

Area

Equivalent single axle load (ESAL) calculations have been performed for the roads to determine if
adequate pavement structure is provided. Documentation of the calculations is provided in Appendix B.
Results of the calculations show that the recommended pavement structure to accommodate design
loads is 6 ½” of hot mix asphalt over 12 inches of stone subbase. Based on the pavement cores, the
existing pavement structure is inadequate for Thurston Road and marginally adequate for Cradit Farm
Drive and Pleasant Grove Road.
POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVES
Based on the type and severity of the distress in the pavement within the travel lanes, the depth and
salvageability of the existing pavement section, and the desire to achieve an extended service life, and
the need for operational reconfiguration of the roadway reconstruction options have been identified as
possible treatments for providing useful life of the project area pavement.
Option 1: Full Depth Reconstruction based on NYSDOT CPDM Design Methodology
Included in this treatment are:
Complete excavation of existing roadway pavement structure
New Subbase Stone (12”)
Asphalt base layer (3”)
Asphalt binder course (2”)
Asphalt top course (1 ½”)
Anticipated life expectancy 20+ years.
Option 2: Full Depth Reconstruction based on Cornell University Heavy Duty Pavement Detail
Included in this treatment are:
Complete excavation of existing roadway pavement structure
Filter fabric Mirafi 500X or equivalent
New Subbase Stone (15”)
Asphalt binder course (4.5”)
Asphalt top course (1 ½”)
Anticipated life expectancy 20+ years.
DISCUSSION / RECOMMENDATION
To assist in determining the preferred option, order of magnitude costs have been developed for each
option (refer to Appendix C). The estimates account only for pavement rehabilitation items (they do
include costs associated with drainage, signs, striping, etc.).
A summary of the pavement rehabilitation cost for each option:
Option 1: Full Depth Reconstruction NYSDOT CPDM methodology $10.00/SF
Option 2: Full Depth Reconstruction (Cornell University Heavy Duty Pavement) $11.00/SF
3
Options 1 is the recommended alternative to provide anticipated service life and structural adequacy for
the expected traffic loading.

From: Jeffrey Smith, Director
Re:Pleasant Grove Road / Cradit Farm Road Null AlternaƟve
Date: July 13, 2023
Background:
In August of 2019, Cornell, Town of Ithaca and Tompkins County entered into a MOA to realign the
intersecƟon of Cradit Farm Road and Pleasant Grove Road with the intenƟonal goal to direct traffic more
readily onto Cornell Campus. This agreement was made without knowing specific details regarding
traffic flow or public safety consideraƟons. Typical with all projects this type of informaƟon is collected
so that informed decisions can be made.
Process:
2019-2022, various preliminary designs were proposed with the preferred re-design determined to be a
creaƟon of a T-intersecƟon. That alternaƟve being Pleasant Grove north would be realigned to flow into
Cradit Farm and Pleasant Grove South would be made into a T-intersecƟon into that re-alignment. See
example.
This informaƟon on preferred design also included traffic counts. These traffic counts showed a raƟo of
traffic greatly favoring the exisƟng alignment by 5.5:1. These traffic counts showed counts during peak
flow one in a.m. and one in p.m. This informaƟon is what determines that a Null alternaƟve should be
preferred.RelaƟve to schedule this informaƟon was shared late summer of 2022. Based on this the
Town of Ithaca proposed and tabled a resoluƟon to accept the Null alternaƟve determinaƟon and ending
the MOA between Cornell/Town of Ithaca/Tompkins County.
Currently the county has conducted two separate traffic counts. These counts are bulk traffic counts
capturing the total traffic through 3 different locaƟons. These counts were conducted during May and
June of 2023.The first count is during Cornell GraduaƟon and Alumni weekend and the second when it
would be considered counts of more local / non-Cornell created traffic volume. See example below.
Data set 1 shows a raƟo of 3.5:1 favoring the exisƟng alignment. Data set 2 shows a raƟo of 5:1 favoring
the exisƟng alignment.
Summary:
Basis for the Null alternaƟve being preferred is determined from the traffic flow. The goal of the
redesign was to direct traffic more readily onto Cornell campus away from Forest Home. It is not
believed that any redesign based on these findings will create the desired result. The exisƟng alignment
works best for a large majority of the traveling public we serve. A re-design is likely to have a negaƟve
impact on safety.
Conclusion:
Null alternaƟve remains preferred. MOA between Cornell/Town of Ithaca/Tompkins County is
concluded.
