TRIP GENERATION ASSESSMENT Renton Daycare Renton, Washington March 5, 2025 HeathTraffic.com Renton Daycare – Trip Generation Assessment 2 Renton Daycare TRIP GENERATION ASSESSMENT Prepared for: Christhian Arcila 425-299-8913 Prepared by: Heath & Associates PO Box 397 Puyallup, WA 98371 (253) 770-1401 Heathtraffic.com License: 03/05/2025 HeathTraffic.com Renton Daycare – Trip Generation Assessment 3 RENTON DAYCARE TRIP GENERATION ASSESSMENT 1. INTRODUCTION Heath & Associates has been engaged to prepare a trip generation assessment for the proposed Renton Daycare development. This report will summarize the project and provide trip generation, distribution, and assignment information. 2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Proposal • Renton Daycare is a proposed daycare facility for a site located within the City of Renton, Washington. Currently, a ~1,312 square feet (sf) commercial office building and a 504 sf single-wide trailer exists on-site. These will be repurposed for the proposed daycare. Additionally, the development is to include a 790 sf fenced outdoor playground for daycare use only. Location • The subject site is situated on 0.45-acres within tax parcel: 102305-9117. • The site address is 4508 NE 4th Street, Renton. • The site is bordered to the south by NE 4th Street, with an existing access connection via two driveways extending north from NE 4th Street. A vicinity map is provided in Figure 1 below. A conceptual site plan is shown in Figure 2.

TRIP GENERATION Trip generation is defined as the number of vehicle movements that enter or exit the prospective project site during a designated time period, such as a specific peak hour (AM or PM) or an entire day. Trip estimates were derived from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publication, Trip Generation, 11th Edition. The ITE land use for the proposed development was defined as LUC – 565 (Day Care Center) using square footage as the input variable. The ITE land use for the previous development was defined as LUC – 712 (Small Office Building) using square footage as the input variable. ITE average rates were used to determine trip ends. Table 1 below highlights the trip generation for the previous use and the proposed Renton Daycare.

It should also be noted that ITE considers 40% of daycare trips to be in the form of pass-by. Consequently, out of the 16 net new PM peak hour trips, 6 could be pass-by and are not considered new trips to the city system. 4. TRIP DISTRIBUTION Trip distribution describes the process by which project-generated trips are dispersed onto the roadway network surrounding the site. Figures 3 and 4 on the following pages illustrate the estimated AM and PM peak hour trip distribution and assignment. Given the site location and use, project trips were split 50% east & 50% west at the site driveway.

Currently, a ~1,312 square feet (sf) commercial office building and a 504 sf single-wide trailer exists on-site. These will be repurposed for the proposed daycare. Additionally, the development is to include a 790 sf fenced outdoor playground for daycare use only. Based on ITE data, the proposed change in use is estimated to generate 61 net new daily trips with 17 net new AM peak hour trips (8 entering, 9 exiting) and 16 net new PM peak hour trips (8 entering, 8 exiting). As this is under 20 peak hour trips, no further analysis is identified at this time. Additionally, ITE data indicates that 40% of peak-hour trips may be pass-by trips, which do not introduce new traffic to the city's roadway system. Please contact me should you have any questions or require further analysis. Thank you, Aaron Van Aken, P.E.
