Traffic Impact Study Proposed Popeye’s & Fast Food Restaurant – West Orange SITE PLAN Site Access and Circulation The site plan was reviewed with respect to the site access and on-site circulation design. As noted previously, access to The Project will be provided via one (1) full movement driveway and one (1) full movement ingress/right turn egress driveway along Eagle Rock Avenue. The parking lot will be serviced by parking aisles with a minimum width of 24 feet for two-way circulation with 90-degree parking, which meets the Ordinance requirements. These dimensions are also consistent with accepted engineering design standards and as such will adequately accommodate the anticipated site traffic. The drive-thru lanes will operate in a counterclockwise direction with the ability to stack eight (8) cars in the drive-thru lane for the proposed Popeye’s restaurant, which exceeds the Ordinance requirement of six (6) total vehicles for fast food restaurant uses. The drive-thru lane is proposed to be 10 feet wide at the order point and 12 feet wide at the pickup window, which exceeds the Ordinance requirement of 9 feet. Therefore, the proposed drive-thru design will provide more than enough stacking for the maximum anticipated demand and will adequately accommodate the anticipated site traffic. A 12- foot-wide bypass lane will also be provided to ensure adequate and efficient circulation and to ensure that drive-thru queues do not impact on site circulation for patrons who park and walk into the restaurant. Parking The Township of West Orange Ordinance sets forth a parking requirement of 1 space per 3 seats or 1 space per 45 SF of floor area available to patrons, whichever is greater. Based on square footage, this equates to a parking requirement of 49 spaces for the proposed 2,170 SF of total restaurant area available to patrons. Based on number of seats, this equates to a parking requirement of 36 spaces for the proposed 106 total seats. As such, the requirement of 49 spaces based on square footage was utilized. It is proposed to construct 48 parking spaces, inclusive of one (1) electric vehicle charging spaces and two (2) ADA-accessible spaces. In accordance with the New Jersey Electric Vehicle Supply/Service Equipment (EVSE) parking requirements, at least one

ive of one (1) electric vehicle charging spaces and two (2) ADA-accessible spaces. In accordance with the New Jersey Electric Vehicle Supply/Service Equipment (EVSE) parking requirements, at least one electric vehicle charging or “make-ready” space is required for a commercial parking lot containing between 0 and 50 parking spaces, which is satisfied as designed. Additionally, electric vehicle charging stations count as two spaces for the purpose of complying with parking supply requirements, up to a maximum of 10% of the requirement. As such, the effective proposed parking supply is calculated to be 49 spaces, which satisfies the Ordinance requirement. It is proposed to provide parking stalls with dimensions of 9’x18’ for 90-degree parking which meets the minimum Ordinance requirements. It should also be noted that industry standards recommend stall widths of between 8’9” and 9’ and a length of 18’ for high-turnover land uses such as The Project, which is met as designed. Page 13
