01053.16 220315 Maint. Storage SP BndrJARRETT Engineers, PLLC Civil & Environmental Engineering Transmittedviaemail/HandDelivered March 15, 2022 Mr. Stephen Traver, Planning Board Chairman Town of Queensbury 742 Bay Road Queensbury NY 12804 Re: ‘Maintenance’ Storage Application for Site Plan By Great Escape Theme Park, LLC Dear Chairman Traver and Planning Board Members, In conjunction with its parent company, Six Flags, Inc., Great Escape Theme Park, LLC (“Great Escape” or the “Applicant”) hereby seeks site plan review for the construction of new ‘maintenance’ storage. The area of the proposed ‘maintenance’ storage falls within Park Area ‘A’ of Great Escape Theme Park (the “Park”) in the maintenance area of the Park, located to the north of the “Steamin’ Demon” rollercoaster and the “Desperado Plunge” log flume ride. Great Escape seeks this approval to further improve parts and equipment storage necessary to maintain rides, attractions and facilities within the Park. Enclosed please find an original and 15 copies of a Site Plan Application for members of the Planning Board (the “Board”), which includes the following project description or narrative. Also enclosed please find a check in the amount of $100.00, representing the fee for the site plan application. I. General Project Description The Great Escape wishes to improve covered storage of parts and equipment within the ‘maintenance’ area of the Park. The need for the improved/additional storage is a result of previous, pending and potential future interior alterations (storage and office space) to other existing ‘maintenance’ buildings to improve function and streamline inventory tracking. No changes to the exterior of the other ‘maintenance’ buildings or use/function of the other buildings is to occur. The improved ‘maintenance’ storage is to consist of (8) 8’w x 8’6” h x 40’ l intermodal shipping containers placed side by side. The containers are to be set at grade on a new crushed stone pad. A new 8’ high stockade fence is proposed to screen the storage containers along the north, west and south side. II. SEQR/Site Plan Review Requirements Queensbury Planning March 15, 2022 Re: Site Plan: ‘Maintenance’ Storage Page 2 of 5 On July 11, 2001, the Town of Queensbury Planning Board, as lead agency, adopted a Final General Environmental Impact Statement (“FGEIS”) and Findings Statement (the “2001 Findings”), that considered the general direction of future development at the Great Escape Theme Park (the “Park”). The FGEIS and 2001 Findings were then further supplemented and amended by a Supplemental Generic Environmental Impact Statement (“SGEIS”) and Supplemental Findings Statement (the “2004 Findings”). As identified in the FGEIS, Park Area A is a 237.6 acre portion of lands owned by Great Escape east of U.S. Route 9, which has traditionally been utilized for amusements and attractions, and has been a theme park since 1954. This area is presently zoned RC (Recreation Commercial). Significant acreage within Area A is “developable” or ideal for siting amusement park rides, attractions, facilities and support facilities such as the proposed ‘maintenance’ storage. The DGEIS anticipated that, in the future, Great Escape may add new attractions and facilities in order to remain competitive with other amusement/theme parks. See pp. 1-2, 2-17 and 2-18 of the DGEIS. The 2001 Findings (as supplemented by the 2004 Findings) adopted developmental impact thresholds for various significant environmental factors. As long as these thresholds are not exceeded by proposed new development, the 2001 Findings held that a State Environmental Quality Review Act or “SEQRA” review is not required. Instead, the Board must approve new rides, attractions and facilities within Park Area A on the basis of site plan review and area variance approval, if required, provided that they are consistent with the impact assessment and thresholds generically adopted in the 2001 Findings. A. Traffic The 2001 Findings refer to a traffic study detailed in the FGEIS which states that “traffic impacts will occur as traffic associated with the growth in the Park’s attendance increases.” See p. 9 of the 2001 Findings. The FGEIS sets forth “Improvement” measures designed to handle increased traffic, measures which are tied to attendance level thresholds. See pp.4-18 and 4-19. In other words, when attendance at the Park reaches specific levels, various mitigation measures could be required. However, the 2004 Findings ultimately dictated that traffic counts, as opposed to Park attendance, would be the trigger for traffic-related mitigation measures. Traffic counts, as identified in biennial traffic reports performed by Creighton Manning Engineering, LLP (“CME”), would determine whether Six Flags must implement mitigation measures. Conversely, the construction of rides, attractions and facilities would not directly dictate mitigation measures. As restated by CME in its September 2021 report, “Phase 3 improvements are required when the combined volume of traffic in the southbound through lane and the eastbound right-turn lane at either [the US Route 9/I-87 Exit 20 Northbound Ramp or US Route 9/Gurney Lane (County Road 23)] intersections reaches the traffic threshold listed in the … Findings Statement.”1 1 According to the 2004 Findings ( p.8), the relevant threshold for Phase 3 mitigation measures is “[w]hen combined traffic volumes reach 1,320 or 1,368 during weekday AM peak hour and 1,454 or 1,404 at the Saturday AM peak hour, respectively at the US Route 9/Exit 20 and US Route 9/Gurney Lane intersections.” Per Creighton Manning, existing 2021 volumes are 592 and 517 for weekday AM peak hour at US Route 9/Exit 20 and US Route 9/Gurney Lane intersections respectively, and 931 and 801 for Saturday AM peak hour for Route 9/Exit 20 and Route 9/Gurney Lane respectively. Phase 3 measures include, but are not limited to, widening the eastbound approach of the I-87 Exit 20 northbound off-ramp, widening the west side of US Route 9 in order to create a second southbound through lane from Exit 20 to Gurney Lane, and constructing a four- leg intersection at Round Pond Road and US Route 9 by constructing the southern piece of the new ring road. See 2004 Findings Section D(2) at p.7 for a complete discussion of the timing of mitigation measures, and description of those measures. Queensbury Planning March 15, 2022 Re: Site Plan: ‘Maintenance’ Storage Page 3 of 5 Because existing 2021 traffic volumes fell well below the Phase 3 threshold for both weekday and weekend peak hours, Great Escape has not yet crossed the threshold wherein the FGEIS called for the implementation of the next phase of mitigation measures. Great Escape has always been proactive in implementing measures designed to effectively manage and direct traffic. When and if additional mitigation measures are dictated, Great Escape will certainly see them through to completion. No additional vehicular traffic is anticipated to be generated by the improved ‘maintenance’ storage by virtue of the fact that this proposed facility is neither a ride nor attraction that would foster a more exciting or pleasurable guest/visitor experience. Therefore, no additional mitigation measures will be required, and currently existing parking lots will be well suited to handle parking needs. B. Sound The 2001 Findings state that “[w]hen a new ride or attraction (facility) is proposed on Six Flags properties, the Planning Board shall review its sound characteristics. Any facility or attraction that will result in an increase of the L90 by 5 DBA or more above baseline at one of the three [residential receptor] monitoring locations shall be subject to additional environmental review.” See Section 5(g)(7). The 2021 sound study performed by Alliance (O’Brien & Gere) indicates that generally, sound level ranges were similar to those measured in 2018 at the required community locations.2 The improved ‘maintenance’ storage is not expected to generate any additional noise compared to the existing unused facility (former Ghost Town Train Tunnel) that is to be removed as part of this project, therefore will not generate the noise level typically associated with roller coasters and other such attractions. As a result, the addition of the ‘maintenance’ storage should not exceed permissible sound thresholds. Therefore, we can be reasonably certain that the Attraction will not result in a material deviation from the sound levels indicated in the sound study. The closest residential receptor point, in the likely direction of sound projection, would be the northern portion of the Twicwood Estates development a distance greater than 1/4 mile to the south. The 2018 sound study indicates that only minimal weekend audible noise from the Six Flags properties (“Park”) was noted during the weekday and weekend measurements. The ‘maintenance’ storage is not predicted exceed the permitted sound thresholds let alone contribute any noise above existing levels documented in the 2021 sound study. Six Flags will continue to comply with Section 5(g)(6) of the 2001 Findings which requires that annual noise monitoring be conducted at the three residential receptor locations detailed therein. C. Stormwater Section 5(c)(4) of the 2001 Findings refer to, and summarize, Great Escape’s proposed implementation of a stormwater management system. In the Findings, the Planning Board expresses its concern with the protection of the Glen Lake Fen’s water quality, and goes on to set forth certain mitigation measures to ensure the protection of the environment and water quality. 2 For example, background L90 sound levels as a result of sound at the Park were within or below the range of sound levels measured in 2018 at Courthouse Estates, at Glen Lake Shore, and Twicwood Estates. Weekend nighttime (while the park is closed) L90 measurements were found to be within or below the range of sound levels measured in 2018 as well.

Queensbury Planning March 15, 2022 Re: Site Plan: ‘Maintenance’ Storage Page 4 of 5 The Applicant anticipates a 1,673± square foot reduction of impervious cover in the project area as part of the development of the ‘maintenance’ storage. The Six Flags properties have long since exceeded the one (1) acre of disturbance threshold requiring compliance with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) - Phase II stormwater regulations and Town of Queensbury local stormwater regulations. However, given the proposed reduction in impervious area it is the desire of the Applicant to request a waiver from the design and construction of any new stormwater control measures from improvements within the project area. D. Wastewater No new restrooms, locker rooms or food service stands and associated sanitary wastewater discharges are proposed in conjunction with the ‘maintenance’ storage. All sanitary wastewater generated on Park properties is discharged to the municipal sewer. E. Soils, Geology and Topography; Ecology Because the land where the storage is proposed has been previously developed, the proposed redevelopment will not disturb any existing woodlands. Only limited areas of existing lawn, vegetation and landscaping will be impacted, with similar proposed landscaping to augment any lost vegetation will be provided. No disruption of any animal or plant species is expected, nor will there be any impact to open space, agricultural, forest or mineral resources. In accordance with 2001 Findings Section 5(b)(3), Great Escape will provide the Planning Board with a detailed landscape planting plan during site plan review. III. Waiver Requests Exterior Lighting: The Great Escape wishes to seek waiver from the design standards for exterior lighting since no new exterior lighting is being proposed as part of this project. Landscaping: The Great Escape wishes to seek a waiver from the design standards for landscaping since the proposed project is to occur in place of the existing Tunnel Structure and the existing open area is largely devoid of woody vegetation. Where practical the plan is to leave the existing vegetation largely intact. A wooden stockade fence, similarly utilized elsewhere in the Park will be utilized to improve screening towards Route 9. Stormwater Controls: The Great Escape wishes to seek a waiver from the design standards for stormwater controls due to the decrease of impervious cover and nominal new grading within the project area. We believe this mitigates the need for new stormwater control measures. IV. Required Approvals and Attachments Great Escape anticipates that governmental approvals required for the proposed ‘maintenance’ storage will be the Site Plan Review from the Town of Queensbury.

Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members March 14, 2022 Re: Great Escape Maintenance Storage Page 1 of 4 § 179-9-080 Requirements for Site Plan Approval. The Planning Board shall not approve a Site Plan unless it first determines that such site plan meets the following Standards. Please prepare responses to each of the following topics: Standards A. The proposed project furthers or is consistent with the policies of the Town’s Comprehensive Plan. The Great Escape has been in existence for decades, and is located within the Route 9 North Commercial Corridor. The Great Escape property is presently zoned Recreational Commercial. Fitting in with a significant goal identified in the Town of Queensbury’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan (the desire for pedestrian-friendly development), the 2001 Great Escape Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS) and the 2004 Supplemental Generic Environmental Impact Statement (SGEIS), the Great Escape is very pedestrian friendly. Access throughout the park is predominantly via walking. The proposed on-site storage container project is necessary to improve material support to the daily operation of the Great Escape Theme Park. The proposed project is located to the north of the existing theme park within the existing ‘maintenance area’. The proposed storage units will redevelop/replace the long since used ‘Ghost Town Train’ tunnel and structure. Having on-site storage for parts, materials, replacement equipment, etc. necessary to support existing rides and facilities is vital to assure an ‘exciting and pleasurable’ experience for guests and patrons visiting The Great Escape. B. The proposed project complies with all other requirements of this Chapter, including the site plan review standards as set forth in Paragraph F of this section, the dimensional, bulk, and density regulations of the zoning district in which it is proposed to be located (Article 3 and Table 1), the applicable requirements of all other Articles that apply. As mentioned above, the proposed container storage project to be located in the maintenance area of the Park located to the north of the Steamin’ Demon roller coaster and the Desperado Plunge log flume ride. The project entails the removal of the former ‘Ghost Town Train’ tunnel and structure then placement of a crushed stone pad and (8) containers for storage. Placement of the new containers will comply with dimensional, bulk and density requirements of the Recreational Commercial zone. C. The site plan encourages pedestrian activity internally and, if practicable, to and from the site with pedestrian paths or sidewalks connected to adjacent areas. The project does not facilitate the need pedestrian activity within the maintenance areas other than to allow maintenance personnel access to the storage. Sidewalks are not proposed since there will be no pedestrian access required. D. The site plan must conform to Chapter 136 Sewer and Sewage Disposal, Chapter 147 Stormwater Management Local Lay, and other applicable local laws. Existing sewage disposal facilities at the Great Escape Maintenance areas will remain. The proposed improvements will not precipitate the need to modify or Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members March 14, 2022 Re: Great Escape Maintenance Storage Page 2 of 4 increase existing sanitary sewers. The project will not generate additional stormwater runoff since impervious cover within the project area is to be decreased in size by approximately 1,700 sf. E. The proposed use shall be in harmony with the general purpose or intent of this Chapter, specifically taking into account the location, character and size of the proposed use and the description and purpose of the district in which such use is proposed, the nature and intensity of the activities to be involved in or conducted in connection with the proposed use and the nature and rate of any increase in the burden on supporting public services and facilities which will follow the approval of the proposed use. The proposed use is in harmony with the general purpose and intent of the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Law in that the site is zoned RC (Recreational Commercial). Activity and use intensity are expected to remain consistent with current activity. The proposed project will not increase the burden on supporting public services or facilities. F. The establishment, maintenance and operation of the proposed use will not create public hazards from traffic, traffic congestion or the parking of vehicles and/or equipment or be otherwise detrimental to the health, safety or general welfare of persons residing or working in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the town. Traffic access and circulation, road intersections, road and driveway widths, and traffic controls will be adequate. The proposed improvements will not create a public hazard from traffic, traffic congestion or the parking of vehicles or maintenance equipment or be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of the neighborhood. The project will be generally in conformance with the existing GEIS, the SGEIS and the studies’ respective findings statements (the “Findings”). G. Off-street parking and loading facilities will be appropriately located and arranged and sufficient to meet traffic anticipated to be generated by the new use. The establishment of vehicle links between parking areas of adjacent properties are provided where feasible. This furthers the Town’s goal of reducing curb cuts and reducing congestion. A twenty-foot wide connection is required. If adjacent properties area either undeveloped or previously developed without having made provision for future linking, then a future connection must be identified and provided for in the site plan under review for such future linking when the time arises. The Planning Board may require proof that the applicant has made contact with adjacent property owners for purposes of coordinating linkages with adjacent properties. Additional off-street parking and loading facilities are not proposed as part of this project. No additional traffic is anticipated to be generated by the new maintenance storage use. Existing parking and traffic flow patterns in the maintenance area of the Park will remain unchanged. No changes in traffic, curb cuts, off-street parking, and/or loading facilities will be required as part of this proposed project. Per the GEIS and the 2001 Findings, and the 2004 Findings, the implementation of mitigation measures for the expansion of Great Escape vehicle parking (parking lots) is dictated by the ‘overall’ park attendance. H. The project shall not have an undue adverse impact upon the natural, scenic, aesthetic, ecological, wildlife, historic, recreational or open space resources of the town or the Adirondack Park or upon the adequate provision of supporting facilities and service made necessary by the project, taking into account the Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members March 14, 2022 Re: Great Escape Maintenance Storage Page 3 of 4 commercial, industrial, residential, recreational or other benefits that might be derived from the project. In making the determination hereunder, the Planning Board shall consider those factors pertinent to the project contained in the development considerations set forth herein under § 179-9-080 of this chapter, and in so doing, the Planning Board shall made a net overall evaluation of the project in relation to the development objectives and general guidelines set forth in § 179- 9-080 of this Article. Per the GEIS and the 2001 Findings, no threatened or endangered species were found to be located within the Park. Additionally, there are no historic or archeological sites located in Park Area A (as defined in the GEIS and 2004 Findings) where construction is proposed. Please see the Narrative for additional details. Also, please note the proposed project area is located in an area prior disturbance and development. I. The provisions for and arrangement of pedestrian traffic access and circulation, walkway structures, control of intersections with vehicular traffic and overall pedestrian convenience shall be safe and adequate for pedestrian movement. Pedestrian connections between adjacent sites shall be provided to encourage pedestrian use. The proposed project is located in a non-public area of the Park and does not facilitate the need pedestrian activity within the maintenance areas other than to allow maintenance personnel access to the storage. The area of the project is located well away from public roads and controlled intersections. Vehicular and pedestrian traffic is typically limited to Park maintenance personnel. J. Stormwater drainage facilities will prevent an increase of post development drainage flows as compared to pre-development drainage flows. Drainage of the site shall recharge ground water to the extent practical. Surface waters flowing off-site shall not degrade any streams or adversely affect drainage on adjacent properties or public roads. Facilities shall be in conformance with the drainage standards of Chapter 147 of the Town Code and the Town of Queensbury Subdivision Regulations where applicable. The proposed project decreases existing impervious covers by approximately 1,700 sf, therefore, no increase in stormwater is expected. No changes in stormwater runoff flows and drainage characteristics is anticipated. K. The water supply and sewage disposal facilities will be adequate and will meet all applicable and current requirements set forth by Department of Health Regulations and Chapter 136 of the Town Code. The proposed project will not increase the water demand or sanitary sewer discharge over and above currently existing volumes. Therefore, no improvements to potable water service or sanitary sewer facilities are proposed. L. The adequacy, type and arrangement of trees, shrubs and other suitable plantings, landscaping and screening shall effectively provide a visual and/or noise buffer between the applicants and adjoining lands, including the maximum retention of existing vegetation and maintenance, including replacement of dead or deceased plants. Existing vegetated buffer exists between the proposed maintenance storage area and adjacent land uses. This existing vegetated buffer is to remain predominantly undisturbed during construction. Additionally, a wooden stockade fence, painted a Stephen Traver, Chairman, and Planning Board Members March 14, 2022 Re: Great Escape Maintenance Storage Page 4 of 4 green/brown color, is proposed to screen proposed storage area from Route 9 and adjacent properties. A waiver for landscaping is being requested. M. Fire lanes, emergency zones and fire hydrants will be adequate and meet the needs and requirements of emergency service providers. The proposed project is to be constructed in an area of previous development. Existing fire lanes, emergency zones and fire hydrants will not be impacted as part of the project. N. The design of structures, roadways and landscaping in areas susceptible to ponding, flooding and/or erosion will minimize or avoid such impacts to the maximum extent practicable. Soil and site conditions in the vicinity of the project area are not typically susceptible to ponding, flooding and/or erosion do to the presence of highly permeable under lying sandy soils. O. The site plan conforms to the design standards, landscaping standards and performance standards in this chapter. The Great Escape wishes to seek waivers from the design standards for stormwater controls, landscaping and exterior lighting. Due to the decrease of impervious cover and nominal new grading within the project area we believe mitigates the need for new stormwater control measures. Existing vegetative growth and buffers within the project area are proposed to remain largely unchanged. In conjunction with the existing vegetation and the installation of stockade fencing to further screen the storage area we believe meets the need for additional landscaping and screening. No additional exterior lighting is proposed as part of this project. It is our belief that existing lighting within the maintenance is sufficient to support the proposed storage.

The purpose of the survey is to provide annual sound monitoring as required in the Park’s 2001 approval for expansion. Survey methodology and results are presented below. Methodology The methodology was consistent with sound surveys conducted for the Park for the past several seasons. A-weighted and octave band sound level measurements were conducted at four locations surrounding the Park. The locations are presented in Figure 1 and identified below:  Courthouse Estates (ML-N),  Twicwood Estates (ML-S),  Glen Lake Shore near the driveway entrance to 86 Ash Drive (ML-AD), and  Great Escape West – Park parking lot west of Route 9 and south of Martha’s (ML-PL). Three of the monitoring sites were located in the community surrounding the Park. ML-N was located on the corner of Hawthorne Road and Northwood Drive, and characterizes private residences in the Courthouse Estates community north of the Park. ML-S was located on a cul-de-sac at the end of Greenwood Lane and characterizes private residences in the Twicwood community south of the Park. ML-AD was located next to the driveway entrance to a private residence adjacent to the southwest shore of Glen Lake and characterizes residences along the shoreline of Glen Lake. The fourth site, ML-PL, was located in a Great Escape parking lot between Route 9 and Interstate 87 (I-87), southwest of the Park, and characterizes sound levels along Route 9 west of the Park. At each of the four monitoring locations, sound levels were measured during the following three scenarios: 1) Park operating, weekday (August 20); 2) Park closed (August 20, evening); and 3) Park operating, weekend (August 21). For each scenario, sound levels were measured for a 20-minute period using a portable Type I sound level meter (analyzer) with integral 1/3 octave band filter. The analyzer measured A-weighted and 1/3 octave band sound levels at a rate of 32 samples per second, and automatically stored time-averaged data into memory. During each measurement period, notes were made onto field forms documenting weather conditions, intrusive noise sources, and traffic, as applicable. All measurements were conducted while winds were calm to light (≤3 mph) and there was no rain. Field data forms are included in Attachment 1 and copies of analyzer calibration certificates are in Attachment 2. Results Results of the sound survey are presented in Table 1 and field observations are summarized in Table 2. As indicated in Table 1, near-continuous (background) sound levels (L90) at the three community monitoring locations ranged from 38 to 46 dBA while the Park was operating, and from 51 to 55 dBA while the Park was closed. L90 sound levels while the Park was closed were noticeably elevated above L90 sound levels while the Park was operating due to continuous noise at high frequencies from crickets. Energy-average sound levels (Leq) at the community monitoring locations ranged from 45 to 60 dBA when the Park was operating, and from 52 to 59 dBA when the Park was closed. Notes on audible Park sounds taken during measurements when the Park was operating indicate the following:  Courthouse Estates – The Park (loudspeaker) was audible above the background sound level during the weekday measurement (1 dBA over L90) and weekend measurement (7 dBA over L90).  Twicwood Estates – The Park was not audible during either weekday or weekend measurements  Glen Lake – The Park was audible at times (voices) during the weekday measurement, but at no increase to the background sound level. During weekend measurements, the Park was not audible. A tabulated comparison of 2021 background sound levels with 2018 and 2019 results is presented in Table A. Note that sound level measurements were not conducted in 2020 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Table A.

Overall, at the three community locations, 2021 background sound levels while the Park was operating averaged within one dBA of the average sound level range measured during 2018 and 2019. When the Park was closed, average background sound levels for the three community monitoring locations were higher in 2021 than in 2018 and 2019 due to ambient noise from crickets at the higher frequencies (2000 to 8000 hertz). At ML-PL, background and energy-average sound levels were higher than at the community monitoring locations due to the location’s closer proximity to the Park, Route 9, and Interstate. Compared with measurements from the last two years of testing, the 2021 background sound levels at ML-PL while the park was operating were within the sound level ranges measured at ML-PL during 2018 and 2019.

Box 511 Lake George Road Lake George, NY 12845 RE: 2021 Biennial Traffic Counts, US Route 9, Town of Queensbury, The Great Escape GEIS, CM Project No. 121-234 Dear Ms. Wood: The Findings Statement for the Great Escape Generic Environmental Impact Statement (GEIS) included a traffic monitoring plan, which was modified to every two years in 2016, the last report being in 2019. The traffic monitoring plan requires that traffic counts be collected during the morning peak hours of the generator on a typical Tuesday and Saturday in August at the following intersections:  US Route 9/I-87 Exit 20 Northbound Ramps  US Route 9/Gurney Lane (County Road 23) Creighton Manning (CM) conducted intersection turning movement counts on Saturday, August 7, 2021, and Tuesday, August 10, 2021, from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the above intersections. The peak hour counts are shown on Figure 1. The GEIS indicates that the Great Escape is responsible for conducting annual traffic counts to determine if the implementation of phased traffic improvements is warranted based on traffic volume thresholds. Phase 3 improvements are required when the combined volume of traffic in the southbound through lane and the eastbound right-turn lane at either of the above intersections reaches the traffic threshold listed in the GEIS Findings Statement. A comparison between existing 2019, 2021 traffic volumes and Phase 3 volume thresholds is provided in the following table. Due to the covid-19 pandemic traffic volumes have decreased. Comparison of Traffic Counts and GEIS Thresholds During the August Peak Hour of the Great Escape Intersection Tuesday Entering Peak Hour Saturday Entering Peak Hour Phase 3 Threshold Existing 2019 Volumes Existing 2021 Volumes Phase 3 Threshold Existing 2019 Volumes Existing 2021 Volumes US Rt. 9/I-87 Exit 20 NB Ramps 1,320 810 592 1,454 968 931 US Rt. 9/Gurney Ln 1,368 874 517 1,404 1,010 801 The combined existing traffic volumes in the southbound through lane and the eastbound right-turn lane at the two subject intersections do not meet Phase 3 volume thresholds during the weekday and Saturday peak hours Page 2 of the generator. This analysis indicates that the Great Escape is not currently required to implement Phase 3 traffic improvements as stated in the GEIS. Please call if you have any questions regarding the traffic count data.
