I am a graduate of St Mary s University, with a Bachelors degree in I am a member of the Institute of Transportation Engineers I have provided transportation planning services for the last 22 years to private sector and municipal clients on all types of development projects including residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and mixed-use. I have also been involved in projects involving peer review and transportation studies for municipalities. I have also testified as an expert witness before the Ontario Municipal Board. I have written and reviewed many traffic impact and transportation studies I am the Service Group Manager for the Transportation Sector of Canada at GHD (formerly the Sernas Group Inc.). In this capacity, I provide management and direction of various transportation consulting projects and, in particular in the areas of transportation planning, traffic engineering, site access operations and parking and circulation analyses My curriculum vitae is attached in Appendix A. 2. Retainer 2.1. GHD was retained by the Seaton Landowner Group to provide transportation input to Master Environmental Servicing Plan for the Seaton urban area in 26. GHD was also retained in March 213 to provide an assessment of the impacts of potential traffic infiltrating the Hamlet of Whitevale during Seaton Phase 1 development and to provide recommended mitigation measures. 3. The Whitevale Mitigation Report 3.1. In accordance with this retainer, GHD prepared the following report : Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study, May 213 (the Whitevale Mitigation Report ), which is provided in Appendix B herein GHD was requested to address Section 11.74(c) of Amendment No. 22 to the City of Pickering Official Plan (OPA 22) relating to development of the Seaton Urban Area. Section 11.74(c) reads as follows: City Council shall, (c) If the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge crossing of Duffins Creek is delayed, require the infrastructure staging plan to identify how traffic will be directed to restrict traffic flow through the Whitevale Hamlet;

3 Witness Statement of J.A. (Jim) Bacchus OMB Case/File No. PL1116 May 27, The Phase 1 Seaton Road Network Review Update Report prepared by BA Group (May 213) in support of the Staged Servicing and Implementation Strategy (SSIS) for Seaton has determined that the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge is not required for the build-out of Seaton Phase 1. Accordingly, Whitevale Mitigation Report assesses measures to mitigate the potential impact of traffic from the development of Seaton Phase 1, assuming that the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge is not constructed prior to the build-out of Seaton Phase The proposed interchange of Whites Road (Sideline 26) and Highway 47 has been identified as a component of the planned transportation infrastructure within the Seaton area that will have a significant impact on traffic patterns in the vicinity of the Hamlet. The Ontario Ministry of Transportation, the public agency responsible for implementation of the interchange, has advised that the interchange can be expected to be operational in 218. Given that Seaton development is anticipated to commence in 215, this report assesses the potential impacts of Seaton traffic prior to the introduction of the interchange, and proposes mitigation measures to address those potential impacts The traffic demands and directional flows used in this report have been developed in consultation with BA Group, as provided in the Phase 1 Seaton Road Network Review Update Report referred to above Based on the existing peak hour traffic volumes on Whitevale Road between North Road and Altona Road, there is currently between 34 and 69 two-way total vehicles during typical peak hour periods. This is equivalent to as low as one vehicle every two minutes, to a high of just over one vehicle per minute. The capacity of a lane of roadway such as Whitevale is in the range of 6 to 7 vehicles per hour or approximately 2 to 23 vehicles per minute Under full build-out Phase 1 development it is expected that the proposed Whites Road interchange at Highway 47 will be operational, however the Realigned Whitevale Road will not be available for crossing of Duffins Creek. With the proposed mitigation measures (Section 3.1 of the Whitevale Mitigation Report) in place, it is estimated that 63 and 83 additional two-way vehicles are expected to drive through the Hamlet of Whitevale during the morning and afternoon peak hour periods, respectively. This is equivalent to one-and-a-half additional vehicles every minute or two-and-a-half total vehicles every minute Prior to the implementation of the Whites Road interchange at 218, and assuming the recommended mitigation measures (Section 4.2 of the Whitevale Mitigation Report), it is estimated that 18 and 127 additional twoway vehicles are expected to drive through the Hamlet of Whitevale during Page 2

4 Witness Statement of J.A. (Jim) Bacchus OMB Case/File No. PL1116 May 27, 213 the morning and afternoon peak hour periods, respectively. This is equivalent to two additional vehicles every minute or three total vehicles every minute After the Whites Road interchange is constructed in 218, and assuming the recommended mitigation measures (Section 4.3 of the Whitevale Mitigation Report), it is estimated that 25 and 3 additional two-way vehicles are expected to drive through the Hamlet of Whitevale during the morning and afternoon peak hour periods, respectively. This is equivalent to just one half of an additional vehicle every minute or one-and-a-half total vehicles every minute. 4. Opinions with respect to the Issue My evidence will address Issue 3 found in the Procedural Order as Attachment 2 - Issues List with respect to the Board s case no. PL1116, which I interpret, in the context of my retainer, to ask: How would a delay in building the Whites Road interchange at Highway 47 impact the Hamlet of Whitevale and specifically, impact the traffic volumes on Whitevale Road between North Road and Altona Road? 4.2. In my opinion, mitigation measures can be provided that will result in the traffic volumes on the section of Whitevale Road between North Road and Altona Road related to Phase 1 Seaton development that are very low in relation to the capacity of Whitevale Road, and which will not represent a perceptible increase to existing volumes In my opinion, the estimated traffic generated by Phase 1 Seaton development will not negatively impact the Hamlet of Whitevale.

13 1. Introduction The Seaton Landowners Group has retained GHD to investigate measures to mitigate the potential impacts of traffic generated by the development of the Seaton community on the Hamlet of Whitevale. Specifically, GHD was requested to address Section 11.74(c) of Amendment No. 22 to the City of Pickering Official Plan (OPA 22) relating to development of the Seaton Urban Area. Section 11.74(c) reads as follows: City Council shall, (c) If the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge crossing of Duffins Creek is delayed, require the infrastructure staging plan to identify how traffic will be directed to restrict traffic flow through the Whitevale Hamlet; The Phase 1 Seaton Road Network Review Update Report prepared by BA Group (May 213) in support of the Staged Servicing and Implementation Strategy (SSIS) for Seaton has determined that the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge is not required for the build-out of Seaton Phase 1. Accordingly, this report assesses measures to mitigate the potential impact of traffic from the development of Seaton Phase 1, assuming that the Whitevale Road By-pass bridge is not constructed prior to the build-out of Seaton Phase 1. Section 11.74(e) of OPA 22 provides that a future transportation planning study will determine additional transportation improvements that may be required to support development beyond Seaton Phase 1. A holding symbol applied to the zoning for Seaton and conditions of draft plan approval will ensure the completion of that future transportation study to the satisfaction of the City of Pickering. The proposed interchange of Whites Road (Sideline 26) and Highway 47 has been identified as a component of the planned transportation infrastructure within the Seaton area that will have a significant impact on traffic patterns in the vicinity of the Hamlet. The Ontario Ministry of Transportation, the public agency responsible for implementation of the interchange, has advised that the interchange can be expected to be operational in 218. Given that Seaton development is anticipated to commence in 215, this report assesses the potential impacts of Seaton traffic prior to the introduction of the interchange, and proposes mitigation measures to address those potential impacts. The traffic demands and directional flows used in this report have been developed in consultation with BA Group, as provided in the Phase 1 Seaton Road Network Review Update Report referred to above.

14 2. Existing Traffic in Whitevale GHD undertook morning and afternoon weekday traffic counts at two intersections to establish existing baseline traffic, pedestrian, and cycling volumes along Whitevale Road in the Hamlet. GHD used the Miovision traffic recording system whereby a video camera recorded all traffic movements at Altona Road / Whitevale Road and at North Road / Whitevale Road. The morning and afternoon peak hour volumes are provided in the Appendix and are illustrated in Figure 1 and the Whitevale Road traffic is summarized in Table 1 below: Date Tuesday, April 2, 213 Wednesday April 3, 213 Table 1: Existing Whitevale Road Traffic Volumes (Between Altona and North Roads) Westbd Morning Peak Hour Eastbd (Two-way) Westbd Afternoon Peak Hour Eastbd (Two-way) Whitevale Road traffic volumes are very low ranging between 34 and 69 two-way total vehicles during typical peak hour periods. This is equivalent to as low as one vehicle every two minutes, to a high of just over one vehicle every minute. The capacity of a lane of roadway such as Whitevale Road is in the range of 6 to 7 vehicles per hour or approximately 2 to 23 vehicles per minute. It was noted that neither pedestrians nor cyclists were observed during the peak hours. However, we would expect that during better weather we would see more pedestrian and cycling activity in and around the Hamlet and the existing and proposed trail system. 2 GHD Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study 197

15 3. Phase 1 Full Build-out Road Network This section quantifies the potential traffic infiltration into the Hamlet under the Phase 1 build-out conditions of Seaton. This Phase includes approximately 12, residential units and 2 acres of employment development. Based on this Phase 1 build-out, we have focused on the vehicular travel to / from (outbound to / inbound from) the northwest via Highways 7 and 47, since this is the direction of travel that has the most potential to create infiltration into and through the Hamlet. The Hamlet is between the origins (and destinations) of Seaton and the destinations (and origins) of Markham and York Region. Potential routes to/from Seaton development to Highways 7 and 47 follow along existing and new roads. The potential routes to/from the northwest generated by Seaton are identified on Figure 2 and described as follows: - Sideline 24; - Taunton Rd Townline Rd; - North Rd; and - Whitevale Rd. Table 2 below, shows the total Phase 1 build-out trips expected to be attracted to the northwest, broken down by the two primary routes travellers would most likely use (Highway 47 and Highway 7) Table 2: Phase 1 Development Traffic Volumes (to/from Northwest) Morning Peak Hour Inbound Outbound (Two-way) Afternoon Peak Hour Inbound Outbound (Two-way) West on Hwy West on Hwy Mitigation Measures for Phase 1 Full Build-out Under this scenario it is assumed that the Whites Road / Highway 47 Interchange will be in place however the Realigned Whitevale Road crossing Duffins Creek will not be constructed. Drivers will have direct access to Highways 7 and 47 via new and/or widened arterial roadways, thus largely eliminating the desire to drive through the Whitevale Hamlet. However, to further protect the Hamlet from infiltration generated by new Seaton residents or workers the following supporting measures (as illustrated on Figure 3) are recommended as part of this Phase 1 Build-out mitigation scenario: - Measure A ; the physical closure of Whitevale Road at the west leg at Whites Road is important to deter traffic infiltration from Whites Road. - Measure B ; an additional closure of Whitevale Road at the eastern limit of the Hamlet to further deter infiltration into the Hamlet from the residents in the new developments connected to the North-South Collector. - Measure C ; Advisory signage, indicating no direct access east of the Hamlet of Whitevale due the proposed breaks ( A and B ) in Whitevale Road. - Measure D ; Implementation of a community-wide Community Safety Zone encompassing the existing Hamlet as well as adjacent future development areas is recommended. The Community Safety Zone would consist of reduced speed zones (3 km/hr) and potentially other GHD Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study 197 3

16 traffic calming devices. Further detailed study would be needed to investigate specific measures that would be accepted by the Community. - Measure E ; Construct the East-West Special Type C Arterial Road between the west limit of development and North Road Measures A through E should be implemented prior to the commencement of building within the portion of the development lands immediately east of the Hamlet (Plan of Subdivision SP-29-8) as they provide the immediate measures to reduce potential traffic infiltration into the Hamlet. With these mitigation measures in place, along with the Whites Road / 47 Interchange constructed, Table 3 illustrates the potential infiltration volumes. Table 3: Potential Infiltrating Volumes - Phase 1 Full Build-out (with mitigation) Inbound Morning Peak Hour Outbound (Two-way) Inbound Afternoon Peak Hour Outbound (Two-way) Whitevale Road These potential volumes were derived from the traffic model developed by the BA Group. Trips to and from development in Seaton were estimated and assigned to the road using transportation planning methodologies described in Phase 1 Seaton Road Network Review Update Report. Compared with the existing observations described in Section 2 and as shown in Table 1 of an average of one car per minute over the peak hour, this potential infiltration would result in just oneand-a-half additional vehicles every minute, or in total traffic terms two-and-a-half vehicles every minute and would likely represent an imperceptible increase in volume. This is well below the capacity (2 to 23 vehicles per minute) of the roadway. 4 GHD Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study 197

17 4. Interim Phase 1 Road Network 218 Development As discussed in the introduction to this report, the new Whites Road/Highway 47 interchange will have a significant impact on traffic routing to and from the north-west of Seaton, and the travel patterns that could impact the Whitevale Hamlet. As also noted, the Ontario Ministry of Transportation has advised that the interchange may not be in place until 218. It is estimated that by 218 the development of Seaton could consist of up to 6,85 residential units (21, population) and 16 acres of employment development. During the period from the anticipated commencement of development in Seaton in 215 until implementation of the interchange in 218, a direct connection from Whites Road (Sideline 26) to Highway 7 and to Highway 47 may not be available for Seaton traffic destined to or from the north and west (projected to be a primary desire for trip origins/destinations). As a result, during this period additional traffic could be attracted to routes passing through Whitevale. Scenarios have been developed to assist in assessing measures to help mitigate traffic infiltration into Whitevale prior to the new interchange being operational in 218. For context, Figure 4 (as well as Figures 5 and 6) illustrate the general development locations that are anticipated by 218, as well as the employment areas estimated to be developed within that time frame. 4.1 Original Baseline Road Network No Mitigation The as-planned original road network considers only those roads needed to provide direct arterial road access for 218 initial development elements, as shown in Figure 4. Under this scenario the Hamlet is potentially exposed to infiltrating traffic from Seaton and other background traffic based on the road network pattern and traffic to and from the northwest (as presented in Section 4.). Whitevale Road continues to be an east-west through road in this scenario. The new East-West Arterial Special Type C, does not connect with North Road since it terminates at the west limit of the development. Similarly, the Realigned Whitevale Road to the south of the Hamlet also terminates at the west limit of development. Connecting these two east-west roads is the North-South Collector (Sideline 28) which will be constructed as part of the development. Therefore, there is no new east-west connectivity and any potential cut-through traffic will use existing Whitevale Road, which runs directly through the Hamlet. Under this scenario, without mitigation measures in place, there is a potential of approximately 53 inbound and 175 outbound trips infiltrating the Hamlet during the morning peak. Similarly, approximately 175 inbound and 1 outbound trips have the potential of infiltrating the Hamlet during the afternoon peak, as indicated in Table 4 below. This equates to approximately four-anda-half additional vehicles every minute or in combination with existing traffic volumes, five-and-a-half vehicles every minute. It is important to note that although this is a significant amount of traffic compared to existing conditions, it is well below the capacity (2 to 23 vehicles per minute) of the roadway.

18 4.2 Mitigation Scenario #1 - Without Whites Road Interchange We have reviewed potential measures to address potential infiltration of Seaton traffic through Whitevale which could occur prior to the implementation of the Whites Road interchange and link to Highway 7. Figure 5 shows a series of mitigation measures as described below: - North-South Collector (constructed by development) links the Realigned Whitevale Road with the East-West Special Arterial Type C and completes another alternative route to external traffic to the northwest. - Measure A and B : To further discourage external traffic from entering the Hamlet, physical closure of existing Whitevale Road west of Whites Road (Measure A ) and at the eastern boundary of the Hamlet (Measure B ), respectively, as shown on Figure 5). - Measure C : Advisory signage, identified as C on Figure 5, indicating no direct access east of the Hamlet of Whitevale due the proposed breaks ( A and B ) in Whitevale Road. - Measure D : Implementation of a community-wide Community Safety Zone encompassing the existing Hamlet as well as adjacent future development areas is also recommended (identified as D on Figure 5). The Community Safety Zone would consist of a reduced speed zones (3 km/hr). Further detailed study is recommended to investigate specific measures that would best achieve this goal and be accepted by the Community. - Measure E : The East-West Special Arterial Type C (constructed by development) is extended from the west limit of development to North Road, Measure E, thus providing a link to the northwest for external traffic to use. - Measure F : To provide additional capacity and to provide a bypass of the new neighbourhood serviced by the East-West Special Arterial Type C, the Employment Collector (shown as F on Figure 5) between Whites Road and North Road, is recommended to be built. Measure F is expected to be the preferred route for traffic volumes generated by Seaton Neighbourhoods to the south and east as well as non-seaton background traffic as it is at the initial northerly terminus of Whites Road. - Measure G : The reconstruction of Sideline 24 between Whitevale Road and south of Highway 47 (shown as G on Figure 5) will provide a direct link to Highway 7 for Seaton development traffic as well as an alternative to North Road for other traffic. Thus F and G provide an alternative to trips otherwise attracted through the Whitevale Hamlet. Similar to Section 3.1 Measures A through E should be implemented prior to the commencement of building within the portion of the development lands immediately east of the Hamlet (Plan of Subdivision SP-29-8) as they provide the immediate measures to reduce potential traffic infiltration into the Hamlet. Traffic should be monitored early on during the build-out of Phase 1 to determine whether these measures are having the desired effect of reducing infiltration. Measures F and G can be implemented separately or combined at a later time, as monitoring determine these measures are needed. It should be noted that Measure F, the construction of the East-West Employment Collector Road between North Road and Whites Road/Sideline 26, and Measure G, the reconstruction of Sideline 24 between Whitevale Road and south of Highway 47, is beyond the current limits of the Phase 1 Employment lands. In order to ensure that these roads can be implemented quickly if the results of the monitoring of traffic infiltration flows through the Hamlet indicate that Measures F and G are to be implemented, the design of these roads should also be prepared once development with Seaton is initiated. As indicated in Table 5 below, and considering the elements summarized above, there is a potential of approximately 25 inbound and 83 outbound trips infiltrating the Hamlet during the morning peak. Similarly, approximately 81 inbound and 46 outbound trips have the potential of infiltrating the Hamlet during the afternoon peak. This equates to approximately two additional vehicles every minute or in total traffic terms (combined with existing flows), up to three vehicles every minute. This continues to be a low volume well within the capacity (2 to 23 vehicles per minute) of the roadway. 6 GHD Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study 197

19 Table 5: Potential Infiltrating Volumes - Mitigating Measures without Whites Interchange Inbound Morning Outbound (Two-way) Inbound Afternoon Outbound (Two-way) Whitevale Road Mitigation Scenario #2 - With Whites Road Interchange Should the Province accelerate the construction of the Whites Road/Highway 47 interchange so that it coincides more closely with the commencement of development in Seaton, we believe it would not be necessary to implement some of the mitigation measures described in the previous scenario (Figure 5). Accordingly, we have revisited the suite of mitigation measures presented in the previous section, and present in Figure 6 a modified mitigation scenario that we believe would address the potential impact of Seaton traffic on the Whitevale Hamlet. Under this scenario, vehicles that would otherwise be attracted to a route that would involve infiltrating the Hamlet of Whitevale, would have better and more direct access to Highways 7 and 47 thus eliminating the attraction to drive through the Hamlet. The following supporting elements would also be included as part of this with Whites Road Interchange scenario: - Measures A through E should be implemented prior to the commencement of building within the portion of the development lands immediately east of the Hamlet (Plan of Subdivision SP- 29-8). - Measure B shown in Figures 3 and 4 (break in Whitevale Road at the eastern limit of the Hamlet) is less important with the Whites Road Interchange and considering the easterly disconnection of Whitevale Road, just west of Whites Road ( A ). Maintaining the linkage of the Hamlet to the new community would provide the existing residents of Whitevale access to the future retail, schools and parks planned in the new Neighbourhoods to the east. However, introducing this additional break at the perimeter of Whitevale, could further reduce infiltration and for that reason may still be a desired feature of the community, but residents would incur the cost of lost connectivity as a result. - Measure E which completes the East-West Special Arterial Type C between Whites Road and North Road is an important element providing an alternative route to bypass the Hamlet. From the previous scenario without the Whites Road interchange, Measure F (construction of Employment Collector between west limit of development and North Road) and Measure G (upgrading Sideline 24 between existing Whitevale Road and Employment Collector) is not necessary since Whites Road would be the preferred route. Under this scenario, traffic infiltration volumes would be substantially reduced, resulting in approximately just 6 inbound and 19 outbound trips expected to infiltrate the Hamlet during the morning peak. Similarly, approximately just 19 inbound and 11 outbound trips are expected to infiltrate the Hamlet during the afternoon peak, as indicated in Table 5 below. This equates to just one half of an additional vehicle every minute or in total traffic terms, one-and-a-half vehicles every minute. This continues to be a low volume well within the capacity (2 to 23 vehicles per minute) of the roadway.

20 5. Findings and Recommendations 5.1 Existing Traffic Based on the two-way volumes during the peak hours, the existing volume on Whitevale Road is equivalent to approximately one vehicle every minute and well within the capacity of the roadway. 5.2 Phase 1 Full Build-out Road Network The Phase 1 build out planned road network, including 6-lane Whites Road with an interchange at Highway 47 and the Realigned Whitevale Road to create a Type B arterial by-pass of the Hamlet of Whitevale for east-west traffic will eliminate the risk of traffic infiltration through the Hamlet. The Realigned Whitevale Road crossing of the Duffins Creek is not programed as part of Phase 1 full build-out. This report assessed this scenario in relation to the potential traffic infiltration of the Hamlet. With the following recommended mitigation measures traffic infiltration is expected to be minimized: Immediate Mitigation - The physical closure of existing Whitevale Road west of Whites Road (Measure A ) and east of the Hamlet (Measure B ) to vehicular traffic re-enforces the exclusion of through traffic. - Install signage (Measure C ) for eastbound Whitevale Road traffic approaching Altona Road indicating that Whitevale Road is discontinuous east of the Hamlet and does not connect with Whites Road. - Establish a Community Safety Zone (Measure D ) including the Hamlet and an area of development surrounding the Hamlet. - Complete (Measure E ) the East-West Special Arterial Type C from the west limit of development to North Road. 5.3 Interim Phase 1 Road Network During the initial years ( ) of Seaton development, the impacts of opening the Whites Road / Highway 47 interchange in 218 and prior to 218 is addressed in this study. - The No Mitigation scenario exposes the Hamlet of Whitevale to potentially high levels of traffic infiltration from the interim Phase 1 development of the proposed Seaton development due to the scheduled opening of the Whites Road / Highway 47 interchange in 218. It is estimated that approximately 53 inbound and 175 outbound trips to infiltrate the Hamlet during the morning peak. Similarly, approximately 175 inbound and 1 outbound trips have the potential of infiltrating the Hamlet during the afternoon peak, as indicated in Table 4. This equates to approximately four-and-a-half additional vehicles every minute or in total traffic, fiveand-a-half vehicles every minute. - Prior to the construction of the Whites Road / Highway 47 Interchange, there is a suite of mitigating measures (shown on Figure 5) that would enhance external road linkages for new residents and employees and provide protection against traffic infiltration into Whitevale during the interim 218 Phase 1 development. It is estimated that under this Mitigation Scenario #1 there is the potential to greatly reduce infiltration to approximately 25 inbound and 83 outbound trips to infiltrate the Hamlet during the morning peak. Similarly, approximately 81 inbound and 46 outbound trips have the potential of infiltrating the Hamlet during the afternoon peak, as indicated in Table 5. This equates to approximately two additional vehicles every minute or in total traffic terms combined with 8 GHD Hamlet of Whitevale Central Pickering Development Plan (Seaton) Transportation Mitigation Study 197

21 existing flows, three vehicles every minute. The overall resulting volume on Whitevale Road in the Hamlet is low in terms of the volume that a road can carry. - Accelerating the construction of the Whites Road Interchange (shown in Figure 6) to coincide with the on-set or initial development of Seaton Phase 1 (prior to 218) would negate the need to advance some road improvements, and provide enhanced and more immediate accessibility to the higher-order provincial highway system. This would also have the inherent benefit of relieving existing and future background loading on the Regional arterial roadways that are expected to experience increasing congestion. It is estimated that under this Mitigation Scenario #2, Hamlet infiltration would be reduced to approximately 6 inbound and 19 outbound trips expected to infiltrate the Hamlet during the morning peak.
