Project: Traffic Impact Study
Owner: New York State Thruway Authority, Albany, New York
Client: New York State Thruway Authority
Completion Date: 2009

Project Description:
This project included a traffic impact study for the potential closure of the Rte 370/I-90 overpass bridge. The project area encompassed over 3 square miles, 13 intersections of which there were 9 signalized. Roadway configurations were complex ranging from two- way local streets to 6 lane primary arterials. Bryant developed complex trip generation data to simulate detour conditions for the bridge closure. Traffic data consisted of existing traffic data, traffic counts, projected counts for construction year scenarios and detailed aerial mapping of commercial and residential zones. Traffic modeling was performed with SYNCRO® and consisted of emulating the existing conditions and detour condition scenarios. The impact study addressed ingress/egress, saturation, LOS changes along with travel time and speeds. Traffic signal data was both gathered from municipalities and field generated. Bryant Associates would like to thank all involved municipalities for their support.
