Re: Roval Palm Hotel Traffi(: :vtitiption - #98143
Dear Mr. Bruch:
Pursuant to Mr. Carter McDowell's request, our finn has prepared a preliminary estimate of the
project contribution towards the improvements on 16 Street recommended in our April 21 lener. .
Ylr. Joseph Johnson concurred that the recommended improvements would mitigate the existing'
defici~ncies on 16 Street, as well as accommodate the Royal Palm Hotel trips that would travel on
16 Street.
Based on field observations and evaluation of the existing signal plan and traffic volumes, the
following improvements were recommended:
. Signal. retiming at the Jefferson A venuell6 Street and Meridian A venuell 6 Street intersectlons
during the afternoon peak period.
. Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of the Alton Road/16 Street intersection to
provide an exclusive left-turn lane and a shared thru/right-tum lane. This would include
restriping the eastbound approach, if necessary, for proper lane alignment
Additionally, our firm had also presented a conceptual cost estimate for the recommended mitigation
improvements at the Jefferson Avenuel16 Street. :v1eridian Avenue!16 Street, and Alton Roadl16
Street intersections. The conceptual cost estimates included the constrUction costs, construction
contingency costs, engineering costs and permitting. costs. The cost for i.mplementing the Slgn.al
retiming improvements at the Jefferson Aveouel16 Street and Meridian Avcnue/16 Street
intersections was estimated at $6,500. The cost for pavement restriping at the: Alton Road/l 6 Slrtet
intersection was estimated at 527,000. Therefore, the total conceptual cost estimate of implementing
the: recommended improvements would be S33,500

Due to the uncertainty of the 16 Street extension berween Collins A venue and Washington A venue
at the time of the initial traffic study for the Royal Palm Hotel. no project tnps were assigned to the
16 Street roadway segment. Given the City's current plans for the 16 Street extension, the project
rnps were reassigned to travel on 16 Street. It INBS estimated that 20% of the project trips would use
16 Street upon completion of the extension.
The methodology used to estimate the project contribution for 16 Street improvements was based
on comparing its eXIsting and future (with recorrunended improvements) two~way service volumes
at level of service D. These service volumes were calculated using FDOTs ART_TAB software (see
attached worksheets). The City provided the existing 24-hour machine traffic COW1ts on 16 Street
These raw traffic counts were adjusted to reflect peak hour peak season conditions using FDOT
seasonal factors. The following tabulation provides the project contribution calculations.

:0% of the additional service capacity created on 16 Street. Therefore. a 19% project contribution
towards L.1e 16 Street improvements would not only mltigate the project traffic impacts but also
mitigate some of the existing deficit in service capacity on 16 Street.
It has been a pleasure working with you and Carter on the Royal Palm Hotel project. If you have
questions or need further information, please call me at 447-0900.

Re: Roval Palm Hotel Traffic Miri~ation - #98143
Dear Mr. Bruch:
J"
Subsequent to our meeting with Mr. Joseph Johnson on April 15, 1998, we have developed a'
conceptual traffic mitigation plan for the four (4) signalized intersections of Alton Roadl16 Street,
Jefferson Avenuel16 Street, Meridian Avenue/16 Street, and Washington Avenucl16 Street. It was
established.. in consultations with the City, that signa! plan adjustments at these four (4) intersections
would improve the overall servke capacity of the 16 Street corridor from Alton Road to Washington
Avenue.
Six.teen Street, between Alton Road and Washington Avenue, is a !VIo-way, two-lane, undivided
roadway. On-street parking is allowed on both sides of the street. Off-peak vehicle running speeds
of25 to 30 mph were observed in the field. The travel lanes on 16 Street arc approximately 14 feet-
18 feet wide. Tum lanes in the east-west direction at the intersections are lacking on 16 Street.
However, field observations of the eastbound and westbound traffic on 16 Street indicated that the
righc-cum.ing vehicles frequently positioned themselves along side the through or left-turning
vehicles to take advantage of the wide pavement at the intersections.
Our firm obtained the: existing signal timing and phasing plans at the subject intersections from the
Miami-Dade Public Works Traffic Control Center. The tra.ffic signals at the: subject intersections
are semi-actuated with a two-phase operation. Exhibits 1 A, 2A, 3A and 4A depict the existing signal

timing and phasing plans, and also include schematics of the existing lane arrangement at the subject
intersections.
Based on field observations and evaluation of the existing signal plan and traffic volumes, the
following improvements are recommended:
Signal retiming at Jefferson Avenuel16 StIeet and Meridian Avenue/16 Street intersections
during the afternoon peak period.
. Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of Alton Road/l 6 Street intersection to provide
an exclusive left-turn lane and !l shared thruJright-tum lane. This would include restriping on
the eastbound approach., if necessary for proper lane alignment.
ExhIbits 1 B, 2B. 38 and 4B provide the proposed signal plans and proposed intersection
improvements, as applicable, at the srudy intersections. Additionally, the City of Miami Beach is
currently finalizing the intersection improvements at Washington Avenuel16 Street. This mitigation
plan incorporates the 16 StIeet extension between Washington Avenue and Collins Avenue. The
16 Street extension plan would provide a shared thruIleft turn lane and an exclusive right-turn lane
on the new westbound approach. Those improvements also include the creation of exclusive
northbound and southbound left-turn lanes.
Our firm has also prepared a conc~ptua.l cost estimate for the recommended mitigation improvements
at Jefferson Avenuel16 Street, Meridian Avenucl16 Street, and Alton Roadl16 Street intersectIons.
The conceptual cost estimates includ.e the construction costs, constrUCtion contingency costs,
engineering costs and permitting costs. The cost for implementing the signal retiming improvements
. .
at the Jefferson Avenuell6 Street and Meridian Avenue/16 Street intersections was estimated at
$6,500.00. The cost for pavement restriping at Alton Road/16 Street.was estimated at $27,000.00.
Therefore, the total conceptual cost estimate of implementing the recommended improvements
would be $33,500.00.

Re: Royal Palm Hotel Traffic Miti&atioD - #98143
Dear Joseph,
In a previous letter dated April 28, 1998, we proposed traffic mitigation on 16 Street between
Washington A venue and Alton Road. Those improvements, if implemented, will mitigate the
existing deficiencies on that segment of 16 Street, as well as accommodate the Royal Palm Hotel
trips that would travel on 16 Street. This assessment was based on a mutually agreed upon
methodology.
The detailed traffic mitigation plan for the proposed Royal Palm Hotel presented to you in our April
28 letter, along with intersection schematics, signal timing, and phasing plans for existing and
proposed conditions, was approved by the City staff. Subsequently, the City of Miami Beach
Commission, at their May 6 hearing, concurred with the staff's approval of the improvements. For
your convenience, we are summarizing the mitigation improvements below:
· Signal retiming at Jefferson AvenueJ16 Street and Meridian AvenueJ16 Street intersections
during the afternoon peak period.
· Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of Alton Road/16 Street intersection to provide
an exclusive left-turn lane and a shared thruIright-turn lane. This would include restriping on
. .
the eastbound approach, if necessary, for proper lane alignment.

Re; Roy-al Palm Hotel Tram~ Mitigation - #98143
Dear Mr. Bruch:
Pursuant to Mr. Carter McDowell's request, our finn has prepared a preliminary estimate of the
project contribution towards the improvements on 16 Street recommended in our April 21 letter.
Mr. Joseph Johnson concurred that the recommended improvements would mitigate the existing
deficiencies on 16 Street, as well as accommodate the Royal Palm Hotel trips that would travel on
16 Street.
Based on field observations and evaluation of the existing signal plan and traffic volumes, the
following improvements were recommended:
. Signal retiming at the Jefferson Avenuell6 Street and Meridian A venuell6 Street intersections
during the afternoon peak period.
. Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of the Alton Road! 16 Street inten;ection to
p.rovide an exclusive left-turn lane and a shared thru/right-tum lane. This would include
restriping the eastboW1d approach, if necessary, for proper lane alignment
Additionally, our firm had also presented a conceptual cost estimate for the recommended mitigation
improvements at the Jefferson Avenue/16 Street, Meridian Avenue/16 Street, and Alton Road/I 6
Street intersections, The conceptual cost estimates included the constrUction costs, constrUction
contingency costs, engineering costs and permitting costs. The cost for implementing the signal
retirning improvements at the Jefferson Aveouell<5 Street and Meridian Avenue/16 Street
intersections was estimated at $6,500. The cost for pavement restriping at the Alton Road/16 Street
intersection was estimated at $27,000. Therefore, the to,tal conceptual cost estimate of implementing
the recommend~d improvements would be $33.500

Re; Royal Palm Hotel Traffic Mitigation - # 98143
April 29, 1998
Page 2
Due to the uncertainty of the 16 Street extension bet\~;een Collins A venue and Washington A venue
at the time of the initial traffic study for the Royal Palm Hotel, no project trips were assigned to the
16 Street roadway segment. Given the City's current plans for the 16 Street extension, the project
trips were reassigned to travel on 16 Street. It was estimated that 20% of the project trips would use
16 Street upon completion of the extension.
The methodology used to estimate the project contribution for 16 Street improvements was based
on comparing its existing and furure (with recommended improvements) two~way service volumes
at level of service D. These service volumes were calculated using FDOTs ART_TAB software (see
attached worksheets). The City provided the existing 24-nour machine traffic COW1ts on 16 Street
These raw traffic counts were adjusted to reflect peak hour peak season conditions using FDOT
seasonal factors. The following tabulation provides the project contribution calculations.
Existing Peak Hour Peak Season Two-way Volume 923 vph I
Existing Two-way Service V olwne at LOS D 520 vph
Future Two-way Service Volume at LOS D 1140 vph
Additional Service Capacity Created 1140 - 520 ;;;; 620 vph
Existing Deficit 923 - 520 -= 403 vph
Remaining Excess Service Capacity 620 - 403 = 217 vph
Project Trips on 16 Street 62 vph
Project Trip Consumption of Remaining Service Capacity 621217 ~ 29%

10% of the additional service capacity created on 16 Street. Therefore, a 29% project contribution
towards t...1e 16 Street improvements would not only mitigate the project traffic impacts but also
mitigate some of the existing deficit in service capadty on 16 Street.
It has been a pleasure working with you and Carter on the Royal Palm Hotel project. If you have
questions or need further information, please call me at 447-0900.

Re: Royal Palm Hgtel Traffic Miti2anon . #98143
Dear Mr. Bruch;
Subsequent to our meeting with Mr. Joseph Johnson on April 15, 1998, we have developed a
conceptual traffic mitigation plan for the four (4) signalized intersections of Alton Road/16 Street,
Jefferson Avenue/16 Street, Meridian Avenue/16 Street, and Washington Avenue/16 Street. It was
established, in consultations with the City, that signa! plan adjustmenl'i at these four (4) intersections
would improve the overall service capacity of the 16 Street corridor from Alton Road to Washington
Avenue.
Sixteen Street, between Alton Road and Washington Avenue, is a two-way, two-lane, undivided
roadway. On.street parking is allowed on both sides of the street. Off-peak vehicle running speeds
of25 to 30 mph were observed in the field. The travel lanes on 16 Street are approximately 14 feet-
18 feet wide, Turn lanes in the east-west direction at the intersections are lacking on 16 Street.
However, field observations of the eastbound and westboW1d traffic on 16 Street indicated that the
right"tuming vehicles frequently positioned themselves along side the through or left.tuming
vehicles to take advantage of the wide pavement at the intersections.
Our firm obtained the existing signal timing and phasing plans at the subject intersections from the
Miami-Dade Public Works Traffic Control Center. The traffic signals at the subject intersections
are semi-actuated with a two-phase operation. Exhibits 1 A, 2A, 3A and 4A depict the existing signal

timing and phasing plans, and also include schematics of the existing lane arrangement at the subject
intersections.
Based on field observations and evaluation of the existing signal plan and traffic volumes, the
following improvements are recommended:
. Signal retiming at Jefferson Avenue/16 Street and Meridian Avenue/16 Street intersections
during the afternoon peak period.
Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of Alton Road/16 Street intersection to provide
an exclusive left-turn lane and a shared thruIright-turn lane. This would include restriping on
the eastbound approach, if necessary for proper lane alignment.
Ex.hibits lB, 2B, 38 and 48 provide the proposed signal plans and proposed intersection
improvements, as applicable, at the srudy intersections. Additionally, the City of Miami Beach is
currently finalizing the intersection improvements at Washington Avenue/16 Street. This mitigation
plan incorporates the 16 Street extension between Washington Avenue and Collins Avenue. The
16 Street extension plan would provide a shared tbruI1eft turn lane and an exclusive right-turn lane
on the new westbound approach. Those improvements also include the creation of exclusive
oorthboWld and southbound left-turn lanes.
Our finn has also prepared a conceptual cost estimate for the recommended mitigation improvements
at Jefferson Avenuel16 Street, Meridian Avenuel16 Street, and Alton Road/16 Street intersections.
The conceptual cost estimates include the construction costs, coostruction contingency costs,
engineering costs and permitting costs. The cost for implementing the signal retiming improvements
at the Jefferson Avenue/16 Street and Meridian Avenue/16 Street intersections was estimated at
$6,500.00. The cost for pavement restriping at Alton Road/16 Street was estimated at $27,000.00.
Therefore, the total conceptual cost estimate of implementing the recommended improvements
would be $33,500.00.

Re: Royal Palm Hotel Traffic Mitieation - #98143
Dear Joseph,
In a previous letter dated April 28, 1998, we proposed traffic mitigation on 16 Street between
Washington A venue and Alton Road. Those improvements, if implemented, will mitigate the
existing deficiencies on that segment of 16 Street, as well as accommodate the Royal Palm Hotel
trips that would travel on 16 Street. This assessment was based on a mutually agreed upon
methodology.
The detailed traffic mitigation plan for the proposed Royal Palm Hotel presented to you in our April
28 letter, along with intersection schematics, signal timing, and phasing plans for existing and
proposed conditions, was approved by the City staff. Subsequently, the City of Miami Beach
Commission, at their May 6 hearing, concurred with the staff's approval of the improvements. For
your convenience, we are summarizing the mitigation improvements below:
· Signal retiming at Jefferson Avenue/16 Street and Meridian Avenue/16 Street intersections
during the afternoon peak period.
· Pavement restriping on the westbound approach of Alton Road/16 Street intersection to provide
an exclusive left-turn lane and a shared thruIright-turn lane. This would include restriping on
the eastbound approach, if necessary, for proper lane alignment.
