o The eastbound approach should include a left turn lane, two through lanes, and one right turn lane. • Bunker Lake Boulevard (west of commercial section to Puma Street): o Expand to a three lane section for development. o Right turn lanes (locations and lengths) will be determined based on development type. Right turn lanes will typically be required where development related trips are anticipated to be more than 100 per day. • Puma Street: o Expand to a three lane section for development (two through lanes and one center left turn lane). Depending on what type of developments occur on the east side of Puma Street, and where those accesses are located, Puma Street could potentially remain as a two lane roadway. o Right turn lanes (locations and lengths) will be determined based on development type. • Bunker Lake Boulevard & Puma Street Intersection: o An all -way stop or single lane roundabout will operate adequately at this intersection for the 2040 Full -Build conditions. A southbound left turn lane and westbound right turn lane are recommended for an all way stop. c. Mid -Term Improvements • See attached Traffic Memorandum in Appendix B. d. Long -Term Improvements • See attached Traffic Memorandum in Appendix B. e. Discussion of Findings • The required improvements within the study area can be implemented based on the phasing plan described above. Each series of improvements for Bunker Lake Boulevard and Puma Street can be implemented as the properties immediately adjacent to the roadways are developed. • Puma Street could potentially be developed as a two lane section with right and left turn lanes at key access points. This will depend on access point locations, type of development on the east side of Puma Street, and location of accesses along the corridor. We recommend proceeding with the three lane section at this time due to the uncertainties of development in the area. • For Phase 1A, right turn lanes will most likely be required both eastbound and westbound along Bunker Lake Boulevard and southbound along Puma Street at proposed access locations. Temporary paving will be required to transition back to the existing Bunker Lake Boulevard and the existing Puma Street. • For Phase 1B, right turn lanes will most likely be required both northbound and southbound along Puma Street at proposed development access locations. Temporary paving will be required to transition back to the existing Puma Street. • For Phase 2, right turn lanes will most likely be required both northbound and southbound along Puma Street at proposed development access locations.
