Level <strong>of</strong> Service<br />

Kimley-Horn compiled 2011 traffic counts to calculate the existing level <strong>of</strong> service on the SR <strong>60</strong> “Twin<br />

Pairs” and roadways in the vicinity. The peak-hour data and concurrency volumes were provided by the<br />

Indian River County Traffic Engineering Division, and the daily traffic volumes were obtained from the<br />

FDOT and the Indian River County Traffic Engineering Division.<br />

The adopted level <strong>of</strong> service standard in the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Vero</strong> <strong>Beach</strong> is LOS ‘D.’ The level <strong>of</strong> service volume<br />

for each roadway segment was determined per Generalized Level <strong>of</strong> Service Volumes tables contained in<br />

the FDOT’s Quality/Level <strong>of</strong> Service Handbook. As presented in Tables 2 and 3, the existing daily and<br />

peak hour volumes on the major roadways in the study area are less than the LOS ‘D’ volume threshold;<br />

therefore, the segments are operating at an acceptable level <strong>of</strong> service with reserve capacity.<br />
