2004 Traffic Counts

The latest counts or Average Daily Trips (ADTs) that we've been able to find were taken in 2003-04 and are reported by SANDAG online at http://www.sandag.cog.ca.us/resources/demographics_and_other_data/transportation/adtv/sandiego_adt.pdf  (see page 13 for Carmel Mtn Rd.and page 54 for Peñasquitos Dr.).

 

Community Plan Traffic Estimates

The Community Plan Traffic Element shows the average daily traffic trips (ADT) at build out for the community. This Community plan was approved/adopted in 1993.

Transportation Element of Rancho Peñasquitos Community Plan, revised in 1993.

 

SANDAG Report Year 2004 Comparison

The ADTs for Carmel Mtn. Rd. may be inaccurrate - traffic has increased dramatically since Hwy. 56 opened. If the numbers show an increase along Carmel Mtn. Rd. from Peñasquitos Blvd. to Peñasquitos Drive since 2002 - where is the increase from Peñasquitos Drive to the interstate? ADTs in a nutshell...

  • Carmel Mtn .Rd going north from Rancho Peñasquitos Blvd. to Peñasquitos Dr., the ADTs were 18.5 thousand in 2004, (increased from 14.4 thousand in 2002).

  • Carmel Mtn. Rd. between Peñasquitos Dr. & I-15 saw 24.4 thousand ADTs going north from Peñasquitos Dr. intersection to I-15 in 2004. Note: ADTs haven't changed since 2000.

  • Peñasquitos Dr. going north between Carmel Mtn Rd. & Almazon St. saw 15.3 thousand ADTs going up hill into the community in 2004 - down one thousand since previous counts. There aren't fewer homes up here, so is the count accurate?

  • If counts were to be done today, the ADTs would be higher yet due to the delays at Hwy. 56 & I-15 interchange ramps offering limited access to either highway in any direction. Drivers exit Hwy. 56 at Black Mtn. Rd. & Rancho Peñasquitos Blvd. and use Carmel Mtn. Rd. north to access I-15 or cross into Carmel Mtn. Ranch or to access Rancho Bernardo.
