Draft Environmental Impact Report - California Off Highway Vehicle ...

3.1 Transportation and Traffic
was estimated following construction of OHV facilities envisioned in the General Plan. This
estimate was used for projecting associated traffic increases generated by the site. Employee
traffic associated with developing the SVRA was also identified and incorporated into traffic
projections. Because construction of the headquarters facilities would facilitate the collection of an
entrance fee, traffic is expected to decrease in the short term until new OHV facilities are
constructed. Therefore, trip generation following construction of the headquarters facilities was
not quantified.
Table 3.1‐6 summarizes the projected trip generation for Clay Pit SVRA for each of the analysis
scenarios used for this environmental evaluation.
