RE: Trip Generation Comparison for the McDonald's in Vail, CO
Dear Robert,
Sustainable Traffic Solutions, Inc. (STS) has prepared a trip generation comparison for the
existing and proposed McDonald's restaurants in Vail. The address of the existing and
proposed restaurants is 2171 North Frontage Road West. This comparison was requested by
Tom Kassmel with the Town of Vail.
The existing store is being replaced as a part of a national program to modernize the
restaurants. Based on the information that you provided, the existing and proposed restaurant
sizes are:
• Existing 3,355 ft2
• Proposed 3,330 ft2
• Difference -25 ft2
The trip generation comparison was prepared using Trip Generation, 8`h Edition' (see Table 1).
Based on the comparison, the proposed restaurant is expected to generate 12 fewer daily trips
as compared to the existing restaurant.
Please contact me at 303.589.6875 or at joe@ sustainabletrafficsolutions.com with questions.
Sincerely,
Joseph L. Henderson, PE, PTOE
