There is 30%of the staff =4 staff persons southbound to the school using vehicles. (right turn)
There is 3S%of the students= 21 students northbound to the school using parents vehicles. (left turn)
There is 3S%of the students= 21 students northbound to the school using school Bus. (left turn)

Note: ITE Code 522 shows for vehicles only, it doesn't dlfferenate between bus and normal car.Therfore, we assume the bus has 4 trips during peak hours per day, 2 in the morning, and 2 in the evening.

Appendix A
Land Use 522
Middle School/Junior High School
Description
Amiddle or junior high school serves students who have completed elementary school and have not
yet entered high school. Both public and private middle schools/junior high schools are included in
this land use. Elementary school (Land Use 520), high school (Land Use 530), private school (K-8)
(Land Use 534), private school (K-12) (Land Use 536), and charter elementary school (Land Use
537) are related uses.
Additional Data
The percentage of students at the sites who were transported to school via bus varied considerably.
Due to the varied transit and school bus usage at these sites, it is desirable that future studies
include additional detail on the percentage of students who were bused to school and the percentage
that were dropped off and picked up.
Because the ratio of floor space to student population varies widely among the schools surveyed,
the number of students may be a more reliable independent variable on which to establish trip
generation rates.
Time -of -day distribution data for this land use are presented in Appendix A. For the two general
urban/suburban sites with data, the overall highest vehicle volumes during the AM and PM on a
weekday were counted between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 and 6:00 p.m., respectively.
The sites were surveyed in the 1990s, the 2000s, and the 2010s in California, Connecticut,
Delaware, Florida, Minnesota, Nebraska, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee.
