Traffic Impact Study
Executive Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the transportation conditions before and after
implementation of the proposed Maverik Convenience Store, determine the impact of the
development on the adjacent transportation system and recommend mitigation measures where
necessary. This study is prepared to meet the requirements of the New Mexico Department of
Transportation, District 3 and the Bernalillo County Public Works Department associated with their
review of the Maverik Convenience Store. A Scoping Report was provided to the Bernalillo
County Public Works Department dated May 20, 2019. A Scoping Meeting for the Traffic Impact
Study for this project was held in May 2019. Scoping Report notes are in the Appendix on Pages
A-108 thru A-114.
The proposed development is located at the southwest corner of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. It
occupies the tract in the northwest corner of the Wagner Site, the Traffic Impact Study for which
was performed in July 2015 and finalized in August 2017. The Wagner Site Traffic Impact Study
assumed that the tract at the northwest corner of the Wagner Site would be developed as a 300-
room motel. The current proposed use is the Maverik Convenience Store. This Traffic Impact
Study can be considered an update to the Wagner Site Traffic Impact Study that addresses the
impact of replacing the 300-room motel with the Maverik Convenience Store.
Subsequent to the hotel proposal but prior to this Maverik proposal was a Pilot Express proposal
which generated a similar volume of traffic as the Maverik. This new Traffic Impact Study for the
Maverik Site follows the New Mexico Department of Transportation’s preferred distribution of
heavy commercial traffic associated with the project. We believe that the local need for heavy
commercial fueling will still bring in more trucks from the local area than the Interstate but have
followed the NM DOT’s methodology.
The proposed development, which will be constructed in one phase, is described as the
development of a Maverik Convenience Store containing 10 fueling positions for passenger
vehicles and 5 fueling positions for heavy commercial trucks in addition to a convenience store.
The implementation year will be 2020 and the horizon year for the project will be 2030. The Study
Area is defined as the intersections of El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd., Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.,
Caterpillar / Wagner Dr., and the proposed access driveways for the project. A summary of the
trip generation rate calculations is in the following table:

Traffic Impact Study
The overall Wagner Development will be accessed via two driveways that exist for the larger project including the proposed Maverik Convenience Store project. El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd. is a full access unsignalized driveway that is located on the east side of Broadway Blvd. approximately 2,000 feet south of Rio Bravo Blvd. (centerline to centerline). The second access driveway (Wagner Drive at Rio Bravo Blvd.) is a right-in, right-out, left-in only driveway located along the south side of Rio Bravo Blvd. approximately 1,200 feet east of Broadway Blvd. (centerline to centerline). Wagner Dr. is also located approximately 600 feet east of an existing railroad track (centerline to centerline). There is an existing 370 feet long (approximately) eastbound right turn deceleration lane on Rio Bravo Blvd. at Wagner Dr. The right-in, right-out, left-in only unsignalized driveway at Wagner Dr. was approved by the Mid-Region Council of Governments Metropolitan Transportation Board (MTB) in August 2005.
Additionally, the Maverik Convenience Store is accessed locally via three proposed driveways:
• Driveway “A” on Wagner Dr. will be a full access driveway for passenger vehicles entering
the passenger car fueling center / convenience store portion of the project. Driveway “A”
(centerline) is located approximately 100 feet south of the south curb line of Rio Bravo
Blvd.
• Driveway “B” on Wagner Dr. will be a new right-in, left-in only driveway to accommodate
the heavy truck component of Maverik Convenience Store large truck customers. It is
proposed as a one-way entering only driveway (right-in, left-in only). Driveway “B” is
located approximately 150 feet south of Driveway “A” (centerline to centerline).
• Driveway “C” is a proposed exit only unsignalized driveway on the south side of the project
accessing Caterpillar Ct. (aka Wagner Dr. as the extension of Caterpillar Ct.).
Local Driveways (Driveways “A”, “B”, and “C”) were analyzed for the implementation year BUILD
condition only. Because they are local internal driveways to the Wagner Mechanical Site, there
is no background traffic growth rate to apply. A horizon year analysis will utilize the same volumes
and yield identical results as the implementation year analysis. All volumes are volumes
generated by the Wagner Mechanical Equipment development including the proposed Maverik
Convenience Store.
Analysis results by analysis year are included in the following table:

Note: Intersection #1 was not analyzed.
Results of the local driveway analyses (Driveways “A”, “B”, and “C”) for the Maverik Convenience
Store were all level-of-service “A” or “B” during the 2020 analysis and no worse than level-of-
service “C” for the 2030 analysis. Offsite intersections such as El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd. and
Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. experienced no worse than level-of-service “D” for either the 2020
or the 2030 analysis.
In summary, the proposed development does not have a significant adverse impact to the
adjacent transportation system and the minimal impact to the transportation system can be
mitigated by the recommended measures described in this report and summarized in the table
above. Therefore, the driveways and associated recommendations should be approved. In

Traffic Impact Study
Recommendations:
For Implementation Year (2020):
Construct Driveway “A” as a full access unsignalized intersection on Wagner Dr. as generally
shown on the Maverik Convenience Store Site Plan on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this Report.
A southbound right turn deceleration lane is warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. The
required length of the right turn lane is 130 feet plus transition. There is not sufficient distance
between Rio Bravo Blvd. and Driveway “A” to construct a 130-feet long deceleration lane plus
transition. This report, therefore, recommends that a 75 feet long taper lane (or as long as can
physically fit) be constructed on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. A northbound left turn deceleration
lane is not warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. However, this study recommends that a
northbound left turn deceleration lane be constructed in consideration of the fact that the
northbound travel lane on Wagner Dr. is a single lane and that the median in Wagner Dr. is being
eliminated south of Driveway “A”. The median area should be striped and used as a northbound
left turn lane.
Construct Driveway “B” on Wagner Dr. as generally shown on the Maverik Convenience Store
Site Plan on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this Report. Driveway “B” should be constructed as a
right-in, left-in only driveway. Neither a southbound right turn deceleration lane nor a northbound
left turn deceleration lane is warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “B”. This report recommends
that Driveway “B” radius returns be designed and constructed to accommodate heavy commercial
vehicles turning left and right into the driveway. Also, a short northbound left turn lane should be
constructed where the existing median is eliminated.
Construct Driveway “C” on Caterpillar Pl. as an exit only unsignalized driveway with one exiting
lane minimum. Neither an eastbound left turn deceleration lane nor a westbound right turn
deceleration lane are warranted. Therefore, there is no recommendation for a deceleration lane
on Caterpillar Pl. at Driveway “C”.
Driveway “B” and Driveway “C” should be designed and constructed to facilitate WB-50 thru WB-
67 trucks.
All design and construction associated with Maverik Convenience Store shall maintain adequate site distances on public roadways and at driveways. Bernalillo County has commented that a pedestrian / bicycle connectivity to public right-of-way should be provided to both Rio Bravo Blvd. and to Wagner Dr. A pedestrian / bicycle connection to Rio Bravo is not possible due to site topography which requires retaining wall in the area near the west side of the Maverik building. A pedestrian / bicycle connection to Wagner Dr. and to Rio Bravo Blvd. will be provided for this project. Detail design of the connection will be shown on future site plans provided by the architect / engineer during the detail design of the project site elements.

Traffic Impact Study
For Horizon Year (2030):
No new deficiencies, significant impacts, or recommendations arose during the horizon year
analysis. All recommendations associated with the Implementation Year also apply for the
Horizon Year analyses. Therefore, there are no additional recommendations associated with the
horizon year analysis.

Traffic Impact Study
Introduction
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the transportation conditions before and after
implementation of the proposed Maverik Convenience Store and determine the impact of the
development on the adjacent transportation system. The recommendations of this study will
provide measures to mitigate the impact of the development of the site plan on critical
intersections and street segments. This study is prepared to meet the requirements of the New
Mexico Department of Transportation, District 3 and the Bernalillo County Public Works
Department associated with its review of the Maverik Convenience Store as shown on the plan
on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this report.
The proposed development is located at the southwest corner of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. in
Albuquerque, New Mexico. If the property were to develop in a manner significantly different than
the proposed plan considered in this report such that the number of generated trips is significantly
greater, then an update to this study may be required by the New Mexico Department of
Transportation, District 3 and Bernalillo County.
Following and on Appendix Page A-1 is a vicinity map depicting the location of the proposed
project:
December 16, 2019 Maverik Convenience Store (Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.) Page 2
Traffic Impact Study
Description of Proposed Development
The proposed project is described as a 15 fueling position Gas Station w/Convenience Market on
the northwest corner of The Wagner Caterpillar Development. The new convenience store is
proposed to have 10 fueling positions for passenger vehicles and 5 fueling positions for heavy
commercial trucks. Previously, this lot was designated as a hotel within the 2015 Wagner Site
Traffic Impact Study. The project lies in the jurisdictional limits of Bernalillo County, NM. The
project fronts on an Urban Principal Arterial Limited Access Roadway, Rio Bravo Blvd. which is
maintained by the New Mexico Department of Transportation. Therefore, the project will be
required to comply with the requirements of Bernalillo County with regard to the overall
development and with the requirements of the New Mexico Department of Transportation with
regard to transportation issues along State Roads.
This development will be constructed in one phase. This study will analyze an implementation
year of 2020 and a horizon year of 2030. Analysis for the Rio Bravo Blvd. / I-25 interchange is not
required for this study. It is not possible to obtain valid current traffic counts nor will the 2015
traffic counts be valid since traffic patterns are expected to change at the new interchange. The
development includes 10 fueling positions for cars and 5 fueling positions for semi-trucks.
Existing zoning is M-2. The proposed Maverik facility will service large trucking firms under
contract as well as independent trucking operators.
The larger Wagner Development will be accessed via two driveways that exist for this parcel of
land. El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd. is a full access unsignalized driveway that is located on the
east side of Broadway Blvd. approximately 2,000 feet south of Rio Bravo Blvd. (centerline to
centerline). The second access driveway (Wagner Drive / Rio Bravo Blvd.) is a right-in, right-out,
left-in only driveway located along the south side of Rio Bravo Blvd. approximately 1,200 feet east
of Broadway Blvd. (centerline to centerline). Wagner Dr. is also located approximately 600 feet
east of an existing railroad track (centerline to centerline). There is an existing approximately 370
feet long eastbound right turn deceleration lane plus transition on Rio Bravo Blvd. at Wagner Dr.
Additionally, the Maverik Convenience Store is accessed locally via three proposed driveways.
Driveway “A” on Wagner Dr. will be a full access driveway primarily for passenger vehicles
entering the passenger car fueling center / convenience store portion of the project. Driveway “B”
on Wagner Dr. will be a new right-in, left-in only driveway to accommodate the heavy truck
component of Maverik Convenience Store large truck customers. Driveway “C” on Caterpillar Ct.
will be an exit only driveway to be utilized by heavy trucks. Driveway “A” (centerline) is located
approximately 100 feet south of the south curb line of Rio Bravo Blvd. Driveway “B” is located
approximately 150 feet south of Driveway “A” (centerline to centerline). Caterpillar Court is
located approximately 150 feet south of Driveway “B” (centerline to centerline). Driveway “C” is
located approximately 220 feet west of the intersection of Caterpillar Ct. / Wagner Dr. (centerline
to centerline).

Following is the proposed site development plan depicting driveway (access) locations (also, see
Appendix Page A-3 for a larger version of the proposed site development plan):
Study Area Conditions
A Traffic Impact Study Scoping Meeting was held at the N.M. Department of Transportation,
District 3 with staff (Nancy Perea, Margaret Haynes) early in May 2019. At the Scoping Meeting,
it was determined that since this area has been studied repeatedly, the study area would be
limited to the following list of intersections to be analyzed in the Traffic Impact Study:
1. Broadway Blvd. / El Rey Rd. (Intersection #2)
2. Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. (Intersection #3)
3. Caterpillar / Wagner Dr. (Intersection #7)
4. Access Driveways for the project (3 driveways – Intersection #4, #5, and #6)
A subsequent telephone conversation with Julie Luna at the Bernalillo County Public Works
Department resulted in the requirement to analyze the unsignalized intersection of El Rey Rd. /
Broadway Blvd. requested by the County. This scope of study was based on the assumption that
December 16, 2019 Maverik Convenience Store (Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.) Page 4
Traffic Impact Study
the parcel in question would be developed as a 15 fueling position (10 passenger vehicles plus 5
large truck fueling positions) Gas Station w/ Convenience Market as shown on the proposed site
plan.
Also, a Scoping Report dated 05/20/2019 was prepared and submitted to the New Mexico
Department of Transportation and to Bernalillo County Public Works Department for review /
comment.
There is one other known land development project in the area which needs to be incorporated
into the background traffic model for this study. It is the remainder of the Wagner Caterpillar
Development utilizing the same two driveways. Those traffic volumes can be found in the “Wagner
Equipment Caterpillar Development” row in the Appendix (Pages A-32 thru A-61). There is one
known Transportation Improvement Program project in the area that is considered in the Traffic
Impact Study, the new Rio Bravo / I-25 Interchange currently under construction. The new
interchange is expected to be completed in late summer, 2019.
The traffic signal at the intersection of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Broadway Blvd. is a part of an
interconnected traffic signal system along Rio Bravo Blvd. The new signal on Rio Bravo Blvd. at
the I-25 Ramps will become a part of that interconnected system when completed, but the timing
/ offset plan for the new signal has not yet been established. Analysis in this study emulates
existing signal timing and, for the proposed new signal on Rio Bravo Blvd. at I-25, utilizes the
most current information available from the design engineer. The signal timing at the intersection
of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Broadway Blvd. is important since it assists with the operational characteristics
of the unsignalized right-in, right-out, left-in intersection of Rio Bravo / Wagner. The red phase
for eastbound traffic on Rio Bravo Blvd. at Broadway Blvd. interrupts the heavy flow of eastbound
traffic on Rio Bravo, thus allowing entering westbound left turn and exiting northbound right turns
to occur at Rio Bravo / Wagner Dr.
Rio Bravo Blvd. and University Blvd. are served by public transit services in this area. Specifically,
there are several ABQ Ride bus routes in the area. Route 51 runs from Rio Bravo / Prince north
& west along Isleta and Atrisco to Central Ave. every hour on weekdays and weekends. Route
222 runs from Rio Bravo / Coors along Rio Bravo and University to Kirtland AFB. See the complete
route information in the Appendix, Page. A-105.
Rio Bravo Blvd. is designated on the Futures 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (2040 Long
Range Roadway System) as a Regional Principal Arterial roadway (see 2040 Futures Map –
Appendix Pages A-6).
Rio Bravo is generally a four-lane paved rural type divided facility with a raised landscaped median
in the center of the roadway. The segment of Rio Bravo Blvd. from Broadway Blvd. to I-25 is
being improved so that it is a six-lane facility.
December 16, 2019 Maverik Convenience Store (Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.) Page 5
Traffic Impact Study
Broadway Blvd. SW is a paved four-lane rural type roadway with no median except at major
intersections. Broadway Blvd. is classified as an Existing Urban Principal Arterial roadway on the
Futures 2040 Metropolitan Transportation Plan (2040 Long Range Roadway System) for the ABQ
Metro Planning Area.
Analysis of Existing Conditions
For this project, the existing conditions were not analyzed because the implementation year is
less than one year into the future; therefore, the 2020 NO BUILD Conditions analysis closely
emulates the 2019 existing conditions analysis.
Recent traffic volumes (turning movement counts) were collected at the intersections targeted for
analysis in this study in 2015 and are included on Appendix Pages A-106 and A-107.
As Rio Bravo Blvd. and Broadway Blvd. are New Mexico Department of Transportation
maintained facilities, analysis of signalized and unsignalized intersections along Rio Bravo Blvd.
and Broadway Blvd. will need to meet the requirements of the New Mexico Department of
Transportation’s State Access Management Manual Table 15.C-1 (Minimum Acceptable Level of
Service Standards) as follows:
Based on the above table, signalized intersections along Rio Bravo Blvd. should be level-of-
service D or better.

Traffic Impact Study
Projected trips were calculated based on the ITE trip generation data for a 15 fueling position Gas
Station w/ Convenience Market. Trips for the development were determined based on land use
defined on the Conceptual Site Development Plan on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this report.
The following table summarized the trip generation rate for the project:
Pass-by trips of 30% were applied to this project. See Appendix Pages A-7 thru A-11 for more
information regarding the trip generation.
The gravity model was used to determine trip distribution where primary passenger car trips for
the commercial land use development were distributed proportionally to the 2020 projected
population of Data Analysis Subzones within a two-mile radius of the proposed development.
Population data for the years 2012 and 2040 were taken from the 2040 Socioeconomic Forecasts
by Data Analysis Subzones for the Mid-Region of New Mexico supplied by the Mid-Region
Council of Governments (MRCOG). Population data from the years 2012 and 2040 was
interpolated linearly to obtain 2020 population data to utilize for this analysis. Population
Subzones were grouped based on the most likely major street(s) or route(s) to the subject
development. The trip distribution worksheet and associated map of data analysis subzones are
shown in the Appendix on Pages A-12 thru A-13. The Trip Distribution maps for automobiles and
trucks, respectively, can be found below and in the Appendix on Page A-14 and A-23.

Traffic Impact Study
Trip Distribution for passenger vehicles were determined based on Mid-Region Council of
Government Socioeconomic Data. Passenger vehicles were distributed proportional to the
distribution of residential population within a two-mile radius of the project. Additional percentage
was distributed towards I-25 to account for freeway traffic using this facility. As a result, the total
trip distribution adds up to more than 100% to provide a conservative analysis for the intersection
of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Rd.
Trip Distribution for heavy commercial trucks were determined in proportion of heavy commercial
volumes of traffic on I-25, on Rio Bravo Blvd., and on Broadway Blvd. It was determined that the
volume of heavy commercial truck traffic on I-25 constituted 70% of the heavy commercial traffic
in the area.
Trip assignments are first made on a percentage basis derived from data established in the trip
distribution determination process and logical routing. Those percentages are then applied to the
projected trips to determine individual traffic movements. Percentage trip assignments for
automobile and truck trips, respectively, are shown in the Appendix on Pages A-15 thru A-23. An
adjustment for pass-by trips of 30% for passenger vehicles was applied on this project.
Generally speaking, trip assignments for both passenger vehicles and heavy commercial were
overestimated for this Study to compensate for unsurety regarding specific routes that customer
would use to access the project.
Background traffic growth rates were considered for each individual approach to an intersection
that was targeted for analysis based on data from the 2008 through 2017 Traffic Flow maps
prepared by the Mid-Region Council of Governments. Most of the Traffic Flow Data for those
years taken from the MRCOG Traffic Flow Maps were Standard Data. The data from those years
for each approach was plotted on a graph and a linear “regression trend line” calculated using the
equation format y=mx+b. The growth rate was determined by calculating the average volume
increase per year during the time period considered and dividing that volume into the most recent
AWDT used in the analysis from which future volumes will be calculated. The rate of growth of
that trend line was utilized as the annual growth rate for each approach if that calculated rate
appeared feasible. However, in every roadway segment considered in this analysis, the rate
indicated a negative growth trend; therefore, the growth rate was considered to be a generic 0.5%.
Historical Growth Rate Graphs with linear regression trend lines and a Growth Rate Map are
shown in the Appendix on Pages A-25 thru A-29. The growth rate utilized for each approach to
an intersection is printed at the top of the Turning Movement sheets for each intersection
(Appendix Pages A-34 thru A-61).
The trip generation, trip distribution and trip assignments were utilized along with the existing 2015
background traffic volumes and the historical traffic growth rates to determine the Implementation
year and Horizon year NO BUILD and BUILD volumes. Implementation year and horizon year

front-end text of this report.
Traffic Analysis
Traffic Analysis provides a level-of-service / delay for signalized and unsignalized intersections. It should be noted that Levels of Service (LOS) for unsignalized intersections cannot be compared directly with Levels of Service for signalized intersections. LOS for unsignalized intersections is based on reserve capacity, which is converted to generalized levels of delay; LOS for signalized intersections is based on actual delay in seconds.

and 95th Percentile queueing will be acceptable for all conditions analyzed in this report. The 95th
Percentile queuing is calculated to be 3.3 vehicles for the westbound approach on El Rey Rd. and
less than one vehicle for the southbound left turn lane on Broadway Blvd. at El Rey Rd.
Therefore, no recommendations are made for the intersection of El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd.

This driveway is an existing right-in, right-out, left-in only driveway. This driveway was approved
as such by the Metropolitan Transportation Board at the Mid-Region Council of Governments
(Resolution R-05-14-MTB). The results of the implementation year analysis of the unsignalized
intersection of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. are summarized in the following table:
The 2020 analysis of the intersection of Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. demonstrates that the delays
and 95th Percentile queuing will be acceptable for all conditions analyzed in this report. The
analysis for this intersection takes into account the upstream platooning effect of the signal at Rio
Bravo / Broadway. The anticipated northbound right turn queue length (95th Percentile) is less
than 2 vehicles. Therefore, no recommendations are made for the intersection of Rio Bravo Blvd.

Local Access
The Maverik Convenience Store is accessed locally via three proposed driveways. Driveway “A”
on Wagner Dr. will be a full access unsignalized intersection primarily for passenger vehicles
entering the passenger car fueling center / convenience store portion of the project. Driveway “B”
on Wagner Dr. will be a new driveway to accommodate the entering (right-in, left-in only) heavy
commercial truck component of Maverik Convenience Store large truck customers. Driveway “A”
(centerline) is located approximately 100 feet south of the south curb line of Rio Bravo Blvd.
Driveway “B” is located approximately 150 feet south of Driveway “A” (centerline to centerline).
Caterpillar Court is located approximately 150 feet south of Driveway “B” (centerline to centerline).
Driveway “C” is a proposed exit only unsignalized driveway on the south side of the project
accessing Caterpillar Ct. (aka Wagner Dr. as the extension of Caterpillar Ct.).
Traffic volumes at the three driveways are not subject to background traffic growth since all of the
volumes are generated trips within the Wagner Development including the Maverik Convenience
Store. Therefore, the local access analysis will only exist for full development. There will be no
additional analysis required for a horizon year.
Analysis of Horizon Year Conditions
The Horizon Year analysis will require only reporting for the unsignalized intersections of El Rey
Rd. / Broadway Blvd. and Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr. The project driveways will have identical
volumes and conditions as the implementation year analyses.

Traffic Impact Study
All of the projected levels-of-services and delays are found to be in an acceptable range. Also,
the calculated 95th Percentile queuing along Wagner Dr. near Driveways “A” and “B” demonstrate
that there should be no queuing problems associated with this project based on the 2020
Implementation Year analysis and the 2030 Horizon Year analysis.
In summary, the proposed development does not have a significant adverse impact to the
adjacent transportation system and the minimal impact to the transportation system can be
mitigated by the recommended measures described in this report and summarized in the tables
above. Therefore, the driveways and associated recommendations should be approved.
Access Design Specifications
Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.
A Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes was performed for Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner
Dr. An eastbound right turn deceleration lane is warranted at a length of 370 feet plus a 12.5:1
taper. The warranted eastbound right turn deceleration lane has already been designed and
constructed by the previous larger development (Wagner Site Development). In addition, a
westbound left turn deceleration lane is warranted at a length of 500 feet plus a 12.5:1 taper. The
warranted westbound left turn lane has already been designed and constructed by the previous
larger development. The subject westbound left turn lane is being reconstructed as a part of the
Rio Bravo / I-25 Interchange Reconstruction Project albeit at a reduced length.
El Rey Rd. / Broadway Blvd.
A Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes was performed for El Rey Rd. / Broadway
Blvd. A northbound right turn deceleration lane is warranted at a length of 550 feet plus a 16.5:1
taper. In addition, a southbound left turn deceleration lane is warranted at a length of 525 feet
plus a 16.5:1 taper. Both lanes have been designed based on negotiations with the New Mexico
Department of Transportation associated with the Wagner Site development and both lanes have
been constructed as approved by the New Mexico Department of Transportation. See Appendix
Pages A-98 thru A-104 for Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes worksheets.
Driveway “A” / Wagner Dr.
A Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes was performed for Driveway “A” / Wagner
Dr. A southbound right turn deceleration lane is warranted at a length of 130 feet plus a 4:1 taper.
However, there is not sufficient length to construct the right turn lane to the required length.
Instead, a southbound right turn taper lane should be constructed to the maximum length possible
(approximately 75 feet long). A northbound left turn deceleration lane is not warranted.
December 16, 2019 Maverik Convenience Store (Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.) Page 21
Traffic Impact Study
Elimination of the raised median in Wagner should allow a short northbound left turn lane to be
constructed to serve both Driveway “A” and Driveway “B”. This Study recommends both a
southbound right turn taper lane (approximately 75 feet long) and a northbound left turn lane 130
feet long plus transition (or as long a is physically possible). See Appendix Pages A-98 thru A-
104 for Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes worksheets.
Driveway “B” / Wagner Dr.
A Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes was performed for Driveway “B” / Wagner
Dr. A southbound right turn deceleration lane is not warranted. This Study recommends a
driveway design for Driveway “B” that would incorporate curb return radii design that will
accommodate entering heavy commercial traffic turning into the driveway. See Appendix Pages
A-98 thru A-104 for Determination of Warrants for Deceleration Lanes worksheets
Driveway “C” / Caterpillar Ct.
There should be no entering traffic into Driveway “C”. Therefore, neither an eastbound left turn
deceleration lane nor a westbound right turn deceleration lane are warranted on Caterpillar Ct.
(Wagner Dr.) at Driveway “C”.
Sight distances on Rio Bravo Blvd. at Wagner Dr. are adequate. There are no sight restrictive
vertical or horizontal curves along this portion of Rio Bravo Blvd. and there are no structures
should be permitted that would block sight distance into and out of the driveway. Sight distance
is also adequate at El Rey Rd. as there are no sight restricting horizontal or vertical curves south
of the driveway and there are no structures that are blocking sight distance into and out of the
driveway.
Pedestrian facilities / bicycle facilities along Rio Bravo Blvd. exist as shown on the 2040 Long
Range Bikeway Map previously discussed; therefore, no additional bicycle facilities are
necessary. Tierra West, LLC has negotiated the required pedestrian / bicycle facilities
requirements with the New Mexico Department of Transportation as part of the Wagner
Development. No further improvements should be required.
Bernalillo County Public Works Department has commented that two pedestrian / bicycle
connections are required: 1) from the multi-use trail along Rio Bravo and 2) from the existing
sidewalk along Wagner Dr. The multi-use trail connection to Rio Bravo Blvd. near the west side
of the Maverik Convenience Store building is impossible to implement due to topography which
requires retaining wall in that area, thus precluding construction of the pedestrian / bicycle facility.
The pedestrian / bicycle facility connection to Wagner Dr. is possible. As per County comment,
this Study recommends that connections and the design details will be negotiated at the time that
the site detail design is developed.

Traffic Impact Study
Summary of Deficiencies, Anticipated Impacts, and Recommendations
Deficiencies and impacts resulting from the proposed Maverik Convenience Store were mitigated
by improvements to the adjacent transportation system constructed by the Wagner Development
based on the approved Traffic Study prepared in 2015 and finalized in August, 2017. The issues
of concern are related to the implementation year analysis. The horizon year analysis resulted in
no additional concerns. The recommendations associated with this study, therefore, are restricted
to aspects of the access to the new Maverik Convenience Store. The recommendations based
on this study are:
Recommendations:
For Implementation Year (2020):
Construct Driveway “A” as a full access unsignalized intersection on Wagner Dr. as generally
shown on the Maverik Convenience Store Site Plan on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this Report.
A southbound right turn deceleration lane is warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. The
required length of the right turn lane is 130 feet plus transition. There is not sufficient distance
between Rio Bravo Blvd. and Driveway “A” to construct a 130-feet long deceleration lane plus
transition. This report, therefore, recommends that a 75 feet long taper lane (or as long as can
physically fit) be constructed on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. A northbound left turn deceleration
lane is not warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “A”. However, this study recommends that a
northbound left turn deceleration lane be constructed in consideration of the fact that the
northbound travel lane on Wagner Dr. is a single lane and that the median in Wagner Dr. is being
eliminated south of Driveway “A”.
Construct Driveway “B” on Wagner Dr. as generally shown on the Maverik Convenience Store
Site Plan on Page A-3 in the Appendix of this Report. Driveway “B” should be constructed as a
right-in, left-in only driveway. Neither a southbound right turn deceleration lane nor a northbound
left turn deceleration lane is warranted on Wagner Dr. at Driveway “B”. This report recommends
that Driveway “B” radius returns be designed and constructed to accommodate heavy commercial
vehicles turning left and right into the driveway. Also, a short northbound left turn lane should be
constructed where the existing median is eliminated.
Construct Driveway “C” on Caterpillar Pl. as an exit only unsignalized driveway with one exiting
lane minimum. Neither an eastbound left turn deceleration lane nor a westbound right turn
deceleration lane are warranted. Therefore, there is no recommendation for a deceleration lane
on Caterpillar Pl. at Driveway “C”.
Driveway “B” and Driveway “C” should be designed and constructed to facilitate WB-50 thru WB-
67 trucks.
December 16, 2019 Maverik Convenience Store (Rio Bravo Blvd. / Wagner Dr.) Page 23
Traffic Impact Study
All design and construction associated with Maverik Convenience Store shall maintain adequate
site distances on public roadways and at driveways to the extent possible.
Bernalillo County has commented that a pedestrian / bicycle connectivity to public right-of-way
should be provided to both Rio Bravo Blvd. and to Wagner Dr. A pedestrian / bicycle connection
to Rio Bravo is not possible due to site topography which requires retaining wall in the area near
the west side of the Maverik building. A pedestrian / bicycle connection to Wagner Dr. will be
provided for this project. Detail design of the connection will be shown on future site plans
provided by the architect / engineer during the detail design of the project site elements.
For Horizon Year (2030):
No new deficiencies, significant impacts, or recommendations arose during the horizon year
analysis. All recommendations associated with the Implementation Year also apply for the
Horizon Year analyses. Therefore, there are no additional recommendations associated with the
horizon year analysis.
Following are the Lanes / Volumes / Analysis Maps that summarize the Lane Configurations, 2020
