STATEMENT OF WORK FOR A TRAFFIC, PARKING AND AIR QUALITY ANALYSIS
A.
GENERAL OBJECTIVES AND REQUIREMENTS:
Purpose: To obtain a study of vehicular traffic, parking and the associated
air quality impacts from vehicular emissions utilizing the identified or
recommended access routes and parking presented in the study. The study
objectives relate to the planned project to construct ambulatory care and SCI
additions and a 570 space parking structure at the Wade Park Division.
Recommendations will be made to:
a. Identify the preferable access route(s) to the planned project;
b. Minimize traffic congestion and retain access through the
project site for VA vehicular traffic including ambulances,
emergency vehicles, buses and delivery vehicles.
c. Estimate and determine air quality impacts to the immediate
project site and its environs. 40 CFR 93; 58 FR 62215, Nov. 24,
1993; amended at 58 FR 63247, Nov. 30, 1993 - DETERMINING

completed within 50 workdays following contract award.
2. Description of Tasks Required: To support the purposes of this
study, the Contractor must, at a minimum, complete the tasks and provide
the data as described below.
a. Identify trip generation. For the purposes of this study trip
generation methodology established by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) may be used describing land use
codes and building types;
b. Identify directional distribution. This effort should reflect
local and regional traffic/land use patterns and utilize
information obtained from the City of Cleveland
c. Describe existing traffic conditions on and adjacent to the
project site. Provide researched and actual traffic volume
counts, street capacities, maximum hourly traffic volume, level of
service, average daily traffic volume and actual physical
conditions of all major roads and streets in the project vicinity.
