TRANSPORTATION COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Exhibit A-1
Scope of Work
Downtown Bremerton Circulation Study
The purpose of the Downtown Bremerton Circulation Study is to evaluate alternatives to improve
transit, pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle circulation in Downtown Bremerton. The study will
consider the effects of all short-term planned improvement projects in the area including:
· Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (PSNS) parking garage
· Bremerton Conference Center/Hotel
· Government Center Complex
· Pacific Avenue Park and Museum
Three different circulation concepts will be considered in the analysis:
· No Build Option - This will assume no changes to the existing street and intersection
configurations in Downtown Bremerton
· Tunnel Option - This will assume construction of a new two-lane tunnel to accommodate
exiting fency traffic between the ferry terminal and Burwell Street.
· Surface Option - This option would relocate the primary ferry terminal exit route from
Washington to l~t/Pacific/Burwell consistent with the "modified Pacific Gateway" option, the
preferred alternative from the BTC EA.
For each option, roadway and intersection improvements needed to accommodate exiting ferry
traffic will be identified.
The Tunnel and Surface Options will emphasize pedestrian and transit improvements on
Washington Avenue between the ferry terminal and the Manette Bridge. This will potentially
include extending the one-way northbound configuration of Washington Avenue further north.
The study area for the analysis will extend from 11th Street to the north, PSNS and the Bremerton
ferry terminal to the south, Sinclair Inlet to the east, and Warren Ave. to the west.
The Circulation Study will take into consideration past efforts addressing Downtown Bremerton
circulation issues including the SR 304 Bremerton-Gorst Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
and Bremerton Transportation Center (BTC) Environmental Assessment (EA). Subsequent
phases of the Circulation Study will include the preparation of environmental documentation to
supplement or amend one of these documents, since the potential circulation improvements have
a strong relationship to either effort. One end of the study area addressed in the SR 304 EIS is
Downtown Bremerton including the ferry terminal and the BTC EA also addressed a similar
study area.
Task 1 - Data Collection and Existing Travel Patterns
Objective: To quantify existing traffic flows and directional travel patterns in Downtown
Bremerton during PM peak conditions.
Discussion: PM peak hour traffic intersection turning movement counts will be conducted at up
to nine downtown intersections to obtain existing turning movement volumes. Data from the
peak 10-15 minute time period following a car ferny arrival will be used to estimate outbound
travel patterns. AM peak hour counts will be obtained at three of the nine intersections to
quantify the difference between AM and PM peak volumes. It is anticipated that PM peak
volumes will be higher than AM peak volumes at all intersections. Therefore, the LOS analysis
described in Task 2 will be completed for the PM peak hour only.
Assumptions:
Intersection turning movement volumes from the Bremerton Parking Study will be used to
summarize and compare to the adjusted 10-15 minute peak volumes.
Deliverable: A summary of existing turning movement volumes and travel patterns in Downtown
Bremerton for the average one-hour period and for the peak 10-15 minute time period.
Task 2 - Prepare Future Base Traffic Volume and Level of Service (LOS) Estimates
Objective: To estimate future downtown traffic volumes with planned projects
Discussion: Future traffic volume forecasts will be prepared for one future horizon year (2005 or
2010). The future volumes will include traffic generated from the four short-term planned
projects mentioned in the introduction and estimated background growth from other traffic
sources (such as the ferry terminal) This will include coordination at one meeting with the
consultants preparing the traffic impact study for the PSNS parking garage.
LOS for existing and future base conditions will be calculated using Synchro software based on
the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual. Existing intersection lane configurations will be used for
initial LOS calculations. The Synchro software will provide the LOS analysis results as well as
visual simulation capabilities to demonstrate the performance of each alternative.
Assumption: The LOS analysis will be conducted for the peak 15-minute period after a ferry
arrival during the PM peak hour. LOS analysis for the AM peak period will not be conducted as
part of this effort.
Deliverable: Future year traffic volume forecasts at study area intersections
Task 3 - Determine Intersection Lane Needs for Tunnel and Surface Options
Objective: To establish the number of lanes needed at study area intersections for the tunnel and
surface options
Discussion: For both the tunnel and surface options, intersection LOS analysis will be conducted
to establish lane requirements to achieve LOS D/E conditions or better at all intersections. The
number of intersection lanes will be tested using an iterative process to maximize the overall
traffic flow efficiency while minimizing the number of lanes.
The tunnel and surface option plans will also address the location of kiss-n-ride activity at the
BTC, vehicle/track access to particular businesses and facilities in the BTC vicinity, and the lane
requirements and other physical space needs at the ferry terminal.
Assumptions:
· The initial configuration of Washington Ave. will include a minimum of two northbound
travel lanes (one transit-only lane and one lane for traffic destined to the Manette bridge
only). The analysis results based on this initial configuration of Washington Ave. will be
reviewed to determine whether adjustments to the number of lanes or lane designations are
warranted.
· All other outbound ferry terminal traffic (except transit and local Manette neighborhood
traffic) will be directed to the SR 304 (Burwell Street) and SR 303 (Warren Avenue)
corridors
· The Bremerton Transportation Center (BTC) bus deck will not be proposed for kiss-n-ride
activity
Deliverables:
· Schematic drawings showing the number of lanes required at study area intersections for the
tunnel and surface options
· Tabular summary of LOS analysis results for each option
Task 4 - Develop Pedestrian, Bicycle and Transit Circulation Elements
Objective: To develop pedestrian, bicycle, and transit circulation elements of the tunnel and
surface circulation options
Discussion: The pedestrian, bicycle, and transit circulation elements will be developed for both
the surface and tunnel options. With the tunnel option, the grade-separated ferry terminal egress
route will improve the environment for walkers and bicyclists on the surface. For both options,
transit circulation will be improved with the addition of an outbound transit only lane on
Washington Ave. or other transit-priority treatments.The resulting transit level of service (LOS)
and operations will be qualitatively described for each of the options.
Deliverable: Maps showing a graphical depiction of the pedestrian, bicycle and transit circulation
elements of the tunnel and surface street improvement options.
Task 5- Prepare Traffic Impact Study for the Bremerton Conference Center/Hotel
Objective: To prepare a stand-alone traffic impact study document for the Bremerton Conference
Center using information from Tasks 14 above.
Discussion: A traffic impact study for the Bremerton Conference Center/Hotel will be prepared.
The traff~c impact analysis will address the impacts from the project at the nine study area
intersections during the PM peak hour. Site access requirements for the project will also be
evaluated.
Assumptions:
· The future horizon year for this traffic impact study will be the same as the future horizon
year for the Downtown Circulation Study.
· The traffic impact study is assumed to be 10-15 pages long and will contain the following
sections:
~' Existing Conditions - A suinmary of existing traffic volumes, LOS and street and
intersection characteristics in the study area.
~' Future Conditions Without the Project - A summary of future intersection LOS at the
nine study area intersections for the future horizon year without the project.
~ Future Conditions With the Project - A summary of trip generation, distribution and
assignment of new traffic from the conference center during the PM peak hour, and
LOS analysis with the project at study area and site access intersections.
~' Improvements Needed to Mitigate Project Impacts - A summary of street or
intersection improvements needed to mitigate project impacts.
· Comments on the draft report are assumed to be editorial in nature and would not require
additional LOS analysis.
· Five copies of the draft and final traffic impact study documents would be provided.
Deliverable: Draft and final traffic impact study documents for the Bremerton Transportation
Center/Hotel
Task 6 -Final Report Preparation and Agency Coordination
Objective: To prepare a final report summarizing the work completed in Tasks 1-4 above.
Discussion: A final report documenting the technical work in the above tasks 1-4 will be
prepared. This will include recommended lane configurations and intersection traffic control at
all study area intersections. The final report will become part of the environmental
documentation for the Downtown Bremerton Tunnel project.
Assumptions:
· We will respond to one-round of comments on the draft report from City of Bremerton
and Kitsap Transit staff.
· We have assumed attendance at three meetings with Kitsap Transit and City of
Bremerton staff during the study process.
Deliverables: Draft and Final reports (10 copies of each report plus an electronic version of the
final report will be provided)

Exhibit A
Bremerton Comprehensive Transportation Plan
Scope of Work
Introduction
The specific tasks for completing the Bremerton Transportation Plan Update are
organized in three phases reflecting the primary deliverables.
· Phase 1 will provide a more complete and thorough update of the Transportation Plan
in conjunction with the Comprehensive Plan update planned in 2002. The
transportation plan update will address all travel modes and facility types in the City
of Bremerton including: streets and highways, HOV facilities, ferry traffic, bus
transit, pedestrian and bicycle facilities, and transportation demand management.
Facilities in each of these areas are all integral parts of the overall multi-modal
transportation system.
Phase 2 will update the Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan focusing
on establishing a furore vision for transportation and developing goals and policies to
achieve the vision. This phase will be developed in close coordination with the
overall Bremerton Comprehensive Plan Update process.
The objective, approach, and deliverables for each phase and work task are summarized
below.
PHASE 1 - Prepare Comprehensive Transportation Plan
Task 1.1 -Public Outreach/Interagency Coordination
Objective: To involve all interested and affected community members as well as other
agency staff throughout the transportation planning process.
Approach: In order to achieve the goal ora transportation plan that is supported by all
involved, it is important to include community members and affected agencies
throughout the process of developing the plan. We will work closely with City of
Bremerton staff to develop a public outreach plan to solicit citizen input. A series of
three community workshops is recommended as one element of the community outreach
effort. These workshops could be combined with other elements of the Comprehensive
Plan or could focus exclusively on transportation issues. The community workshops are
suggested during the following phases of the project: (1) visioning/problem
identification, (2) initial concept development, and (3) draft transportation plan
completion. As part of the outreach effort, we will also be available to conduct smaller
focus meetings with the City Council, Planning Commission, or other community groups.
(A total of three council/plauning commission meetings were assumed.)
Other agencies affected by the transportation plan, including the Washington State
Department of Transportation (WSDOT), Kitsap County, and Kitsap Transit, will be kept
informed and involved throughout the process, and proposed improvements will be
developed in coordination with the agencies' proposed plans. (A total of 2 meetings with
staff from other agencies were assumed.)
City Responsibilities:
· Lead meeting set-up, announcement, and advertisement.
· Assist with meeting facilitation and presentations.
· Attend meetings with other affected agencies.
Deliverables: Informational materials, graphics, and displays fi)r the meetings.
Task 1.2 - Develop Transportation Goals and Policies
Objective: To develop transportation and goals and policies that reflect community
values and the vision for future development.
Approach: We will work closely with Bremerton staff involved in updating the
Comprehensive Plan to develop transportation goals and policies. This will begin with a
review of Regional goals and policies from the PSRC Destination 2030 Plan. The goals
and policies will establish the direction for future transportation system improvements in
Bremerton, while emphasizing viable options to the automobile. The transportation goals
and policies may also address facility design, neighborhood protection, environmental
protection, and other values important to the community.
City Responsibilities:
· Provide initial direction to the consultant team on the primary categories and content
of transportation policies.
· Provide consistency review and comparison with other Comprehensive Plan
policies.
· Provide a map of Bremerton center locations.
Deliverable: Draft and Final technical memo listing the transportation goals and
policies.
Task 1.3 - Existing Conditions and Deficiencies Identification
Objective: To develop an accurate base of information on the existing conditions and
deficiencies of the transportation system.
Approach: All existing transportation system information will be compiled and
summarized based on available information and field visits to the site. This information
will include current roadway functional classifications based on the existing
Transportation Plan, traffic volumes, and level of service (LOS); existing transit, ferry,
and bicycle/pedestrian facilities; and deficiencies based on existing LOS and any high
accident locations. This will include development of a prioritized list of traffic count
locations to be conduced in spring/summer 2001.
The existing functional classification of arterial streets will be reviewed for internal
consistency and appropriateness. Changes to the existing functional classifications will
be recommended where appropriate. The City's street maintenance program will also be
described.
City Responsibilities:
· Compile all existing traffic volume information and conduct new counts.
· Compile information on the components, frequency, and budget for the City's
existing maintenance program.
· Compile all existing traffic accident information.
Deliverable: Existing conditions information presented in graphical format on a network
map of the City.
Task 1.4- Travel Demand Forecasting and Future Deficiencies Identification
Objective: To prepare a city-wide transportation planning model utilizing the
UFOSNET computer software package. The UFOSNET model will analyze the effects
of local and regional growth on the city-wide system.
Approach: One of the first steps in determining the future needs or deficiencies in the
transportation system is to develop future travel demand forecasts within the study area.
RST International is fully equipped to develop a City-wide travel demand forecasting
model based on future year population and employment estimates in the City of
Bremerton (consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan) and Kitsap County, as well
as existing transportation system characteristics collected in Task 2.3. Future system
deficiencies will be identified based on traffic volume forecasts at least 20 years into the
futme. System deficiencies will initially be identified using a level-of-service (LOS) C or
D or better threshold for meeting transportation system concurrency.
City Responsibilities:
· Provide future population and employment estimates by Transportation Analysis
Zone (TAZ).
Deliverable: Future traffic volume forecasts on arterial streets within the City of
Bremerton and a list of roadways falling below the LOS C or D threshold.
Task 1.5 - Transportation Improvements, Cost Estimates, and Funding Sources
Objective: To identify transportation facility improvements, cost estimates, and
financing options for the system deficiencies identified in Task 2.4.
Approach: This task involves the development and evaluation of alternative
transportation improvements that are needed to eliminate the transportation system
deficiencies identified in Task 2.4. The transportation goals and policies described in
Task 2.2, current non-motorized plans, WSDOT's SR 303 improvement plans, and
Kitsap Transit's goals will all be considered in developing the City's transportation
system improvements. The improvements will be grouped into three future
transportation networks to be tested with the travel demand forecasting model.
Potential improvements would include widened roadways and intersections or greater
efficiency gained through Transportation Demand Management (TDM) and
Transportation Systems Management (TSM) strategies. Improvements for pedestrians,
bicyclists, transit and ferry riders, and neighborhood traffic control devices will also be
identified. LOS estimates for future conditions ~vith and without the system
improvements will be prepared. Preliminary cost estimates (including right-of-way
acquisition costs) and potential funding sources for the improvements will also be
identified as part of this task. Where possible, transportation improvement projects will
be defined to maximize chances of scoring highly on competitive grant applications.
City Responsibilities:
· Provide historical information on the mount of outside transportation funding used
for City projects.
· Provide unit cost information on recent capital improvement projects in the City.
Deliverable: A 20-year list of transportation improvements and preliminary cost
estimates.
Task 1.6 - Reassessment and Concurrency
Objective: To reassess and balance transportation improvement costs, level of service
standards, and future land use forecasts and provide an ongoing "Concurrency
Management System" to ensure adequate capacity for new development.
Approach: The City of Bremerton's Comprehensive Plan was used to guide the
transportation system planning process in the previous work tasks. Upon developing the
improvements and transportation network costs associated with these improvements, it
may be necessary at this point to reassess the framework which established the identified
improvements. We will work closely with City staffto determine whether and how the
framework would be revised. The elements of the Comprehensive Plan Transportation
Element that could be affected include the following: level of service standards, financing
or budgetary priorities, and transportation improvements. Modifications to the City's
current street design standards will also be developed in this task.
City Responsibilities:
· Provide initial input on strengths and weaknesses of current design standards.
· Provide input to the consultant team on balancing the level of service and financing
elements of the transportation plan.
Deliverable: A revised list of transportation improvements and cost estimates and
concurrency management system recommendations. The revised project list would
become the Capital Improvement Project list for the city.
Task 1.7 - Draft and Final Transportation Plan
Objective: To prepare Draft and Final Transportation Plan documents.
Approach: The transportation plan must include action strategy for bringing into
compliance any existing facilities or services that are below established LOS standards,
and provide for expansion of facilities and services to meet future needs at established
LOS standards. The strategy must be financially sound; planned needs must be
financially feasible and committed for implementation within six years. The strategy
must be consistent with the six-year transportation improvement programs required for
the City, Kitsap County, Kitsap Transit, and WSDOT.
City Responsibilities:
· Review and comment on the Draft and Final Transportation Plan documents.
Deliverables: Draft and Final Transportation Plan documents.
Phase 2 - Prepare Transportation Element of the Comprehensive Plan
Objective: To summarize the Final Transportation Plan into the overall Comprehensive
Plan document.
Approach:
· Summarize the planning requirements established by the Growth Management Act
(GMA).
· Summarize the community vision and values and related to transportation.
· Restate the Transportation goals and policies developed in Task 2.2.
· Production coordination and assistance.
· Up to two meetings with City staff for coordination.
City Responsibilities:
· Attend up to two coordination meetings.
· Review and comment on the Draft Transportation Element.
Deliverable: Transportation Element of the Bremerton Comprehensive Plan
