Stahl Sheaffer completed a Transportation Impact Study (TIS) for a proposed senior care community providing 119 independent living units, 32 assisted living/person care units, and 28 independent living patio homes on an approximately 23-acre site with access via Dorseyville Road in Indiana Township, Allegheny County.

The transportation impact study prepared by Stahl Sheaffer included coordinating with representatives from Indiana Township and the Township Engineer, performing data collection and traffic analyses, and presenting the findings to Indiana Township Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors for Land Development approval. Stahl Sheaffer performed traffic data collection and traffic analyses of 14 intersections in both Indiana Township and Fox Chapel Borough and prepared the study to meet Township requirements and determine appropriate mitigation measures. Traffic analyses performed for each study intersection included the following:

• Intersection capacity analysis (Highway Capacity Manual Standards)
  
• Intersection queue analysis (using Synchro software)
• Auxiliary turn lane warrant analysis (PennDOT Publication 46 Standards)
• Traffic signal warrant analysis (PennDOT Publication 46 and MUTCD Standards)
• Crash analyses (Highway Safety Manual Standards)
