V 94-343 CITY OF BANGOR, MAINE Engineering Department MEMORANDUM July 20, 1994 To: Members of the City Council From: Jame R. Ring, City Engineer Subject: Penobscot River Bridge Replacement Project As youa the Maine Departmentof Transportation has requested that the City Council take formal action in support of the proposed alternative which has been developed for the replacement of the existing Penobscot River Iron Bridge. I have prepared a Council Resolve in this regard wMCM1 will be on the July 25th, 1994 Council Agenda. Although the Maine Department of Transportation has been working n developing the bridge replacement project for several years, preliminary bycepts did not fully address many of the issues and concerns expressed officials and citizens in both Bangor and Brewer. Accordingly, Bridge Advisory Committee was appointed approximately one year ago by the Councils of both Bangor and Brewer to work with LOOT to develop the best alternative for a replacement structure that would serve both the present and future needs and interests of the a This Committee met ofral times during Iate 1993 and 1994, and considered a wide variety issues and information. There was considerable discussion regarding not only the location of the structure, size of the structure (number of lanes, etc.), but also impacts on traffic circulation and streets and neighborhoods which eventually could be affected by aew bridge. Some of the major paints that were considered and addressed by the Committee are as follows: 1. Need - The existing bridge was constructed in 1902 and is currently in a very deteriorated condition. One m of the condition and adequacy of bridges is a called "sufficiency rating". This fac¢deal value is derived from evaluation and rating of a number of tors regarding the capacity of the bridge and particularly structural condition. The sufficiency rating includes a scale of 0 to 100. with 0 being an out of service structure and 100 representing a new structure. Th¢cent rating for the existing bridge is 2.0. Furthermore. since 1990 the bridge has been posted with a maximum vehicular weight limit of 3 tons. Clearly the existing structure needs to be replaced. 2. Traffic projections - Currently the total number of bridge crossings between Bangor and Brewer is 69,000 vehicles per day. This represents an increase of approximately 2% per year since 1955, at which time the total number of crossings was approximately 20,000 vehicles per day. Traffic projections developed through origin destination studies, computer modelling, etc. indicate that by the year 2010 there will be a total of 105,000 vehicles per day crossing the river. it is interesting -1- 94-343 to e that the three existing bridges all carry approximately one-third of the present river crossings. By the year 2010, it is projected that a replacement of the existing bridge would carry approximately 2915 of the future river swing traffic. so there will be a shift in future traffic loading co the Veterans Bridge and the chamberlain Bridge. 3. Location - A number of potential locations for the replacement structure were valuated, including constructing the replacement bridge at Hogan Bead as has been suggested by Some. The traffic forecasting indicates that a replacement structure very near to the existing location is the best solution for the study period. If the replacement bridge were constructed at Bogan "ad, forecasting models indicate that it would serve approximately 11.500 vehicles per day out of the 69.000 vehicle total and the remainder mould shift to the Veterans Bridge. 4. Size - The Committee considered various configurations of a proposed replacement bridge which included two-lane, three -lane, and four -lane bridges. A two-lane bridge was not considered feasible due to the stacking of traffic through intersections on both sides of the bridge. A three -lane bridge did not offer much improvement in that regard and a four -lane bridge is considered to be the moat practical alternative. It should be noted that a four -lane bridge does not twice a much a two-lane bridge, because a two -]ave bridge would have to be constructed with breakdown lanes; therefore, a two-lane configuration would only be alightly lees expensive that a four-1,ne. 5. Traffic circulation - The earlier concepts which were developed by MBOT included an alignment on the Bangor bridge collinear with Oak Street, and provided fort way traffic on both Oak Street and Washington Street. One of the problems with this approach is that the intersections at both Washington Street and Hancock Street became very large and complex. City staff did not support this concept and recommended that the existing rotary circulation patterns be retained. The proposed alternative which has been developed by the Advisory Committee includes present traffic circulation patterns on both the Bangor and Brewer sides. 6. Local impacts - In addition to the technical aspects of the project, there was also considerable discussion of the potential Impacts that a replacement structure would have existing streets and neighborhoods n Bangor, particularly along the Broadway corridor. Ther also i o e were concerns raisedregarding the Hancock Sweat a Ishould be noted cM1the traffic forecasts sts fox the year 2010 indicate that thee will growth in traffic will be fairly et disported. and that the percentage of growth on Broadway and Hancock Street ar Street are almost equal. Over the course of several months, a preferred bridge replacement alternative was developed which was supported by a consensus of the Advisory Committee. This preferred alternative consists of a new replacement bridge which would be aligned with the and of Oak Street and extend to the present bridge location on the Brewer shore. The bridge would consist of four lanes. together with intersection Improvements in both Bangor and Brewer. Existing -2 94-343 traffic circulation patterns would remain unchanged in both Bangor and Brewer. This replacement alternative is considered to be the best overall � solution by a majority of the Advisory Co1[tee, and is supported bMOT. On April 20th, 1994 MOT conducted a public hearing at the Bangor Civic Center to present the proposed replacement alternative for the Penobscot River Iron Bridge. At that time an informational booklet was provided which a mmsrized the Issues, alternatives, ate. which w considered by the Bridge Advisory Committees I believe that each member of the City Council has received a copy of this booklet, which has a blue c This informational booklet contains are detailed discussion of various aspects of the project. and I would encourage you to review it if you have not already done so. As indicated above, there has been a fair amount of conexpressed regarding future traffic impact along the Broadway corridor. ThenBroadway corridor includescsiderable number of residential houses, and is also currently designated as State Route 15. As a way of mitigating the potential impact due to traffic passing through this area, it has been r o®ended that Route 15 be redirected between Outer Broadway and South Main Street in Brewer a that it would instead follow Interstate 95 and interstate 395 between those locations. The Council Resolve supports this action. There have also been expressed by several Hancock Street residents regarding potential Impact of future traffic On that neighborhood. These concerns have been expressed at the Council Workshop held last Monday, and alsobyStone at the April 25th, 1994 Council meeting in written to=m I have attached a copy of Ms. Stone's comments ents a well a other information which I bad prepared prior totheW'a Workshop. There are basically four aspects of traffic concerns. 1. An increase in future traffic. 2. The amount of truck traffic. 3. Speed of traffic. 4. Difficulty residents sometimes experience turning onto Hancock Street. The 1969 City of Bangor Comprehensive Plan included the recommendation that Hancock Street be extended through to connect with State Street t0 relieve traffic congestion In the downtown area and along State Street and numerous aide streets and as a way to improve overall traffic circulation. Thisendation v e subsequently reviewed about tan yeas latex and i 1980 Hancock Street extension was constructed. Mile this resulted in increased traffic on Hancock Street, you will note from the attached table of traffic counts through 1993 that other streets in the area have experienced comparable Impacts from natural growth in traffic. It Is interesting that from 1990 to 1992 traffic counts on Hancock Street actually show a slight reduction, whereas State Street (east of Birch Street) shows a 6% annual increase. -3- 94-343 With regard to truck traffic c , it is Important to realize that based o actual current traffic counts, truck traffic only accounts for 4.2% of the total traffic volume during the peak design hour (4:15 cc 5:15 P.M.) This percentage Is projected to remain constant in the future years. I have also attached copies of truck traffic information which I Have recently ently received from MBOT. "Truck traffic' included in the traffic numbers includes not only heavy tractor trailers, but also all trucks having at least two axles and six wheels, which includes local delivery type trucks. Hancock Street residents have suggested several possible changes to reduce traffic burden on Hancock Street. One suggestion is to route traffic from the Bangor and of the bridge up Oak Street and then out State Street rather than utilizing Hancock Street / Hancock Street extension. I don't believe this is a good solution for several reasons. 1. whereas the proposed alternative allows for free right hand turn movements off the end of the bridge, this suggestion would prohibit that and Bate considerably more Congestion and delays at the Washington / Oak intersection, Hancock / Oak intersection, and Broadway / State intersection. 2. As previously indicated, traffic growth on State Street in recent yearn Has actually surpassed growth on Hancock Street - this is not due to any bridge related issue. but Lathe[ to overall growth in our transportation network. 3. Although there are few single family residences remaining on State Street. there are several nultl-family structures, a school, considerable pedestrian traffic, and many ccame ercial businesses and professional offices. 4. Mere are considerably more a intersecting side streets on State Street, all of which produce turning traffic movements and together with ac v a s businesses, s office etc. contribute to traffic congestion. Another is to route all frock traffic left up Boyd Street. This is not reconded becauset Boyd Street and all of the other streets connecting to StateS Street have fairly steep grades. Another suggestion is to Consider making Hancock Street one-way to the hospital and also to control traffic movements exiting the hospital. These types of changes may warrant consideration a etime in the future, but would require athorough analysis s to their effects - consideration is not directly a bridge related issue. Another suggestion has been to install a traffic signal at Boyd Street. while I am not sure that Boyd Street would be the best location fora traffic signal on Hancock Street, I do support and recommend that a traffic signal be located somewhere along Hancock Street, probably between Boyd Street and Birch or East Summer Street. I have discussed this with MOOT and they have indicated It is likely a signal installation Could be included as part of thebridgereplacement project. The Council Resolve includes a reference to traffic signal installation on Hancock Street as part of the project. I believe that a traffic signal would have two beneficial on the Hancock Street area. -4- 94-343 1. It would tendtoreduce overall travel speed, particularly through the residential area. 2 It would provide some interruption in traffic flaw which would afford better opportunity for Hancock Street residents to. enter the street. While Installation of a new traffic signal on Hancock Street would not directly affect growth in future traffic volumes, I do feel that it would have a positive impact toward mitigating same of the traffic concerns that have been expressed. The last provision of the proposed Council Resolve requests that MOT fully investigate and Implement appropriate measures to minimize impacts on Bangor streets and neighborhoods arising from bridge related traffic. While this is very general and unspecific, I have included this because there may be same other things that could potentially address For instance, future traffic projections indicate a significant growth In westbound atraffic approaching Brewer and Bangor from Route IA. Assuming that some of these vehicles are destined for the Hogan Road / Stillwater Avenue/ Bangor Mall area in Bangor, and would otherwise use Hancock Street and State Street as vel route, signs directing those vehicles to bake I-395 west and then I-95 north could have the effect of reducing traffic on Hancock Street. The extent of reduction would need to be determined, and there may be issues involving the City of Brewer before something like this could be implemented: however, such possibilities ought to be considered. In summary, the replacement of the existing Penobscot River Iron Bridge is desperately needed. While many issues and needs must be considered in a project of this significance, I feel that the proposed alternative which was developed by the Bridge Advisory Committee working On aonjunction with MOT is the best practical solution, and recommend that theCouncil support the project. If any Council member has any questions, or would like further information, please let me know.
