 Traffic Growth

traffic count gives 2004 base volumes;

produce base volumes for 2014 (10 year horizon) without
development;
Background traffic growth for 10 years
Brinsmead Road (through traffic) 5.0% per annum linearly;
Redlynch Road (turns) 3.0% per annum linearly .
other new development is incorporated in background growth;
produce volumes for 2004 and 2014 with development.

requires immediate upgrading works;
existing intersection 2014 base + development volumes
does it work with development if not, when does it fail and
