 Wells + Associates was retained by Federal Realty Investment Trust to conduct a traffic impact study of the Pentagon Row mixed-use project located in Arlington County, Virginia. The project consists of 325,000 S.F. of community retail space, a 67,350 S.F. Health Club, and 872 residential apartments located adjacent to the Pentagon City Mall and Metrorail station. Wells + Associates demonstrated the transportation benefits of relatively dense, mixed use, pedestrian- and transit-friendly design. Pentagon Row will generate approximately 25 to 30 percent fewer peak hour trips than the uses currently approved for the site. These findings were supported by nationally published data of comparable mixed-use projects. Wells + Associates conducted a traffic impact study that identified appropriate street cross-sections, traffic control devices, lane configurations, and parking garage driveway designs. Wells + Associates also assisted in developing design guidelines for the internal road network and parking systems, and truck loading and unloading requirements. |
