IntersectionsThe following table illustrates the level of service for at-grade local intersections within thePart B Study area. Additional signalized intersections were analyzed for the overall Part AStudy Area. Most intersections are currently operating at an acceptable overall level ofservice. It does appear that the intersection of Liberty Street and Reading Road (which alsoincludes the terminal for ramps to and from I-471) is operating under constrained conditionsand is operating at LOS of D overall. This has been validated by observations of congestionand queuing in the left turn lanes in the PM peak hours. The intersection of Reading Roadand WH Taft Road and Reading Road and ML King Drive are also failing overall. Analysisof these two intersections is documented in the Part A Existing and Future Conditionsreport.Uptown Transportation Study 38URS CorporationNovember 2006
