The Penndel train tracks can cause traffic to back up Bellevue Ave pretty far especially when there is a freight train and back to back Amtrak trains. With the loss of exits along Rt 1 and all people exiting at Pine Street this will likely increase this log jam and force more traffic into the Manor to get to the Hulmeville Ave Bridge. Are you studying this traffic increase towards the tracks and the potential increase of traffic in this neighborhood which is relatively quiet?

We do not typically include railroad blockages in our traffic analysis. We usually just assess the conditions during the AM and PM peak hours. Additionally, 413 southbound should have no traffic increase, so the project should have no effect on its current condition.
