SCOPE AND FEE PROPOSAL
TRAFFIC DATA UPDATES
AND
ROUNDABOUT BEFORE AFTER SAFETY EVALUATIONS
October 2009
Cole Associates Incorporated, doing business as DLZ Indiana, LLC (DLZ), appreciates the opportunity
to provide with this Proposal. We are certain the City of Carmel (City) will be pleased with our services
and with our traffic engineering expertise. This proposal entails a bi- annual update of traffic data for the
City's roadways and intersections starting with the year 2010. hi addition, the proposal also entails
conducting before and after safety evaluations for the roundabout intersections within the City limits.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The City of Carmel is one of Indiana's fastest growing areas. In light of this growth and in order
to keep the City's infrastructure updated to meet this growing demand, the City has undertaken
several initiatives to improve the traffic conditions along its roadway network. One such
initiative was to study the City's growing traffic conditions. DLZ conducted a study in the year
2008 titled "Traffic Congestion and Safety Study" (Previous Study) that included capacity and
safety evaluations for over 100 signalized, stop controlled and roundabout intersections
throughout the City. The purpose of this proposal is to continue to update the traffic data
presented in the Previous Study on a bi- annual basis and also to perform before and after safety
comparison for the roundabout intersections that have been in operation for at least 3 years. This
time frame is chosen so an adequate sample size of the crash history could be obtained for the
roundabout intersections.
II. PROJECT NEED AND PURPOSE
The City currently does not have any procedure in place to update or keep an inventory of the
traffic data for the City's roadways or intersections. Due to the rapid growth and major
transportation projects (such as Keystone Avenue and potential US 31 Reconstruction), it is
prudent for the City to keep an update inventory of traffic data to stay abreast of the
transportation infrastructure needs. Furthermore, the updated traffic data would also be vital for
prioritizing the City's roadway projects and to determine the traffic growth in the area. This is
also critical for the Federal funding requests that are desired for the transportation project. As a
part of the Previous Study, a GIS database was prepared for the traffic data which is now linked
to the City's master GIS system. The intent of this GIS database was to have a system in place to
keep a record of the traffic data along the City's roadways and intersections. The bi- annual
updates to the traffic data will also be assembled in the GIS formats for an easy link to the City's
master GIS, in order to keep a comprehensive and updated data inventory.
The second component of the Project is to perform before and after safety studies for the
October 2009 2'
Traffic Data Updates And Roundabout Before After Safety Studies

roundabout intersections. The purpose of these studies is to demonstrate the safety benefit of the
roundabouts in the City and to develop safety statistics. The result of these studies will be
beneficial for Federal funding requests (CMAQ, TIP, etc), demonstrating the project benefits.
Instead of relying on the national averages, the City would have its own statistics of the safety
records. This is vital for roundabout safety performance data due to different demographics and
driver behavior in different parts of the country. Furthermore, the results of this study will boost
the City's image of providing environment friendly, context sensitive and safer transportation
infrastructure.
III. SCOPE OF SERVICES
A. Traffic Data Updates
DLZ will perform traffic data collection for the intersections and roadway segments, as stated
below. The schedule of these data collection activities will be dependent upon the on -going
construction projects at the time. DLZ will coordinate with the City prior to conducting the data
collection. The traffic data will be updated bi- annually, starting with the year 2010 and until
the City directs DLZ to cease the activities.
The traffic data along Meridian Street (US 31) corridor is not included in this scope since US 31
is under INDOT's jurisdiction.
Intersections:
Morning (AM) and evening (PM) peak hour intersection turning movement counts will be
collected at the intersections listed below for this scope of services. This data will be collected
from 7 AM to 9 AM and from 4 PM to 6 PM. In addition, afternoon peak counts will also be
conducted from 11 am to 1 pm for the signalized intersections along Range Line Road between
116 Street and Main Street, the main north /south downtown strip.
The data collection will be carried out for the intersections included in the Previous Study along
with additional intersection to cover all primary intersections in the City. The intersections in
bold represent the signalized intersections that will also be counted for the afternoon peak period
along Range Line Road, as stated above:

The raw data collected for the above roadway segments will be converted to AADT data upon
application of the appropriate axle and seasonal adjustment factors. These factors will be
obtained from the INDOT's 2007 Adjustment Factors (or more recent as available from INDOT)
for the appropriate roadway classifications and applied according to the field collected data for
computing AADTs.
Due to the magnitude of the traffic data, all of the aforementioned data will be transmitted to the
City electronically on a CD in *.pdf format. Only raw data will be transmitted, except when
roadway segment AADT computation is required, which will be provided by DLZ.
B. GIS External Database For Traffic Data
The City currently has an operational GIS that is used by various City departments. The traffic
data presented in the Previous Study was also linked to the City's master GIS. The intent of this
task is to assist the City in keeping an updated inventory of various traffic related information
gathered as a result of this scope of services. As the data collection activities are completed,
DLZ will prepare external databases of the turning movement counts and 24 -hour traffic counts
collected in the preceding tasks stated in this scope of services. Both the turning movement and
AADT data will be stored in *.pdf and Excel formats, respectively. DLZ will follow the same
delivery format and submittal criteria as presented at the time of the Previous Study in
consultation with the City's GIS staff. The GIS database files will be transmitted bi- annually to
the City, along with the updated traffic data.

Traffic Data Updates And Roundabout Before After Safety Studies

C. Roundabout Before /After Safety Evaluations
The purpose of conducting these before and after safety evaluations is identify the safety benefits
of converting signalized or stop controlled intersection into roundabout intersections in the City.
The study will demonstrate the safety benefits of roundabout conversions, results of which could
then be utilized to bolster the City's decision of new roundabout construction, both for federal
funding purposes and for public presentation. The primary advantage of conducting these
studies is the use of actual City data as opposed to relying on national averages for these types of
safety evaluations /benefits.
The existing roundabouts that will be evaluated for this task include the roundabouts studied in
the Previous Study for roundabout crash rate determination along with some additional
roundabout locations that have been in operation for at least last 3 years (constructed through the
year 2006). The roundabouts along Hazel Dell Parkway at 126 Street and 131 Street are
excluded from this scope, since these two locations have known deficiencies that are currently in
the process of being fixed by the City. Furthermore, the two (2) along Clay Terrace Boulevard
will be evaluated under this task since there is no "before" data for these two roundabout. These
two roundabouts were built on an entirely new Clay Terrace Boulevard. Lastly, 103 Illinois
Street intersection is excluded since this does not constitute a modern roundabout but instead is a
traffic circle.
DLZ will obtain the "before" condition traffic data for the intersections studied under this task
from the City, as available. This is to compare /verify the traffic data changes (if any) between
the before and after condition for the purposes of conducting the analysis. Most recent 3 years of
crash data will be obtained for the study purposes. The data will be obtained from the ARIES
crash record database and each intersection will be evaluated for crashes occurred within 500
feet of each approach. Due to the potential magnitude of the crash data, Hamilton county GIS
will be utilized, as needed, to sort the crash data for this purpose.
The before and after safety analysis is broken down in two groups, constituting existing and
future roundabout intersections:
Group I: This will be done for the signalized or stop controlled intersections that have been
converted to roundabouts (constructed through the year 2006). Actual crash data for the before
and after period (3 years) will be evaluated in this phase to quantify the actual safety benefits
achieved.
The following intersections (from the Previous Study) will be evaluated for before /after safety
performance. The year in parenthesis indicates the year of construction for each roundabout, as
obtained previously from the City:

Group 11: This will be done for the signalized or stop controlled intersections that have not been
converted to roundabouts or the locations that have been converted to roundabout intersections
after the year 2006. Under this phase, the crash analyses for the "before" period would be based
on the actual crash history while the "after" period would be based on the estimated safety
benefits of converting those locations to a roundabout intersection. This analysis of the estimated
benefits will be conducted utilizing the Empirical Bayes procedures stated in the NCHRP Report
572, "Roundabouts in United States Actual crash data for the "before" period (3 years) will be
evaluated in this phase.
The following intersections will be evaluated for before /after safety performance. The year in
parenthesis indicates the year of construction (or anticipated construction) for each roundabout,
as obtained previously from the City. These intersections include the currently slated as well as
those listed on the City's Thoroughfare Plan (dated October 21, 2006) for roundabout
