Reference: Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis – Arnold St/S 19th Ave, Bozeman, MT
Project No. 260140
Dear Taylor:
The purpose of this letter is to provide a comprehensive traffic signal warrant study
for the intersection of South 19th Avenue and Arnold Street in Bozeman, MT,
assuming full buildout of Arnold Street between South 19th Avenue and South 11th
Avenue. The intent of this assessment is to satisfy the requirements of the City of
Bozeman and provide guidance on the necessity of a traffic signal or other traffic
control and potential access restrictions at this intersection.
The Arnold Street/South 19th Avenue intersection is currently stop controlled on the
eastbound approach with a northbound left-turn lane and a 20-foot striped center
median on the north leg. There are marked bike lanes along both directions of South
19th Avenue with sidewalk along both roadways. Arnold Street is currently
disconnected between South 19th Avenue and South 11th Avenue. It is assumed that
Arnold Street will be constructed to fill this gap concurrent with construction of
Phase 3 Block 3 of the South University District (SUD). Current development timelines
project that this will occur within five years.
Along with Block 3 of SUD, Blocks 1, 2, and 4 are also expected to be developed within
a similar timeline. Additionally, other plans for this area of Bozeman include the full
buildout of Jarrett Subdivision and Allison Subdivision Phase 4. Figure 1 on page two
outlines the boundaries of the planned developments considered for this study and
the anticipated connection of Arnold Street.
Existing Conditions
Traffic data was collected at the Arnold Street/South 19th Avenue intersection on
Tuesday, February 24, 2026, using Miovision Scout video-based systems. The
weekday AM and PM peak hour periods were found to occur from 7:45 to 8:45 AM and
5:00 to 6:00 PM, respectively. Figure 1 summarizes the calculated Existing Conditions
(2026) peak hour turning-movement volumes for both peak periods. Detailed traffic
count data worksheets are included in Attachment A.

Intersection capacity calculations for Existing Conditions (2026) were performed for
the study area intersections using PTV Vistro 2023 software, which is based on the
Highway Capacity Manual, 7th Edition (Transportation Research Board, 2022). Level of
service (LOS) is defined as a quality measure describing operational conditions
within a traffic stream, generally in terms of such service measures as speed, travel
time, freedom to maneuver, traffic interruptions, comfort, and convenience. LOS is a
qualitative measure of the performance of an intersection with values ranging from
LOS A, indicating good operation and low vehicle delays, to LOS F, which indicates
congestion and longer vehicle delays. The City of Bozeman Unified Development Code
(UDC) Section 38.400.060.3 specifies that LOS D represents the minimum acceptable
LOS for intersections.
The Existing Conditions (2026) intersection capacity calculations showed that the
South 19th Avenue/Arnold Street intersection currently operates at LOS D on the
eastbound approach in the AM peak hour, with a delay value only 0.6 seconds above
the LOS C threshold. Calculated eastbound 95th-percentile queues reach two vehicles
during the AM peak hour. During the PM peak hour, the eastbound approach operates
at LOS C. Figure 1 also shows the Existing Conditions (2026) LOS results at each
intersection. Table 1 below provides a detailed capacity summary table, and capacity
calculation worksheets can be found in Attachment B.
Future Projections
Future traffic projections at the Arnold Street/South 19th Avenue intersection,
including the new westbound approach, were developed for the five-year horizon by
combining trip assignments for the adjacent planned developments with the
Existing Conditions (2026) volumes. A yearly background growth rate of 1.5 percent
was applied to existing volumes based on adjacent MDT historical traffic count data
and the prior approved SUD traffic studies.

For the purposes of this analysis, it was assumed that Blocks 1-4 of the SUD
development, the Jarrett Subdivision, and Allison Subdivision Phase 4 would be
constructed within a five-year horizon. Trips associated with the proposed South
Range Crossing II Subdivision, located southeast of the Arnold Street/South 19th
Avenue intersection, were excluded from this analysis as the first phase of that
development is not anticipated to connect to Arnold Street within the five-year
horizon timeline.
Vehicle movements from existing residential areas adjacent to Arnold Street were re-
routed due to the proposed Arnold Street extension. The re-routed volumes were
estimated using the same access distribution assumptions applied to the SUD
future development, specifically the percentage of trips anticipated to use the
proposed Arnold Street connection. The Morning Star Elementary School district
boundary is east of South 19th Avenue and therefore school trips are not expected to
alter their travel patterns due to the extension of Arnold Street. Figure 1 on page two
illustrates the resulting AM and PM Future (2031) traffic volume projections.
Future Operations Analysis
A Future (2031) capacity analysis was completed for the Arnold Street/South 19th
Avenue intersection assuming two-way stop control on the minor approaches and
full access with the westbound approach constructed. The results show that the
eastbound approach is projected to operate at LOS E during both peak hours, with
95th-percentile queues remaining minimal. The increase in vehicle delay for the
eastbound approach is primarily attributed to the higher proportion of left-turning
vehicles on that approach, which conflict with South 19th Avenue thru movements
during both peak hours. Inversely, the westbound approach is expected to serve
primarily right-turning movements which experience limited delay. The westbound
and other remaining approaches are projected to operate at LOS C or better, with the
intersection overall projected to operate at LOS A. Figure 1 also illustrates the Future
(2031) LOS results. Table 2 on the following page provides a detailed intersection
capacity summary table, and capacity calculation worksheets for the Future (2031)
traffic projections scenario can be found in Attachment C.

Traffic Signal Warrant Analysis
Traffic signal warrants were evaluated for the Existing Conditions (2026) and Future
(2031) scenarios using criteria outlined in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices (MUTCD) 11th Edition (2023). The MUTCD presents several warrants that can
be considered based on traffic volumes, school crossings, crash history, and others.
For the purposes of this analysis, Warrants 5 (School Crossing) and 9 (Intersection
Near a Grade Crossing) were not evaluated because the intersection is not adjacent
to a school or a grade crossing. Morning Star Elementary School is located less than
one mile east of the intersection and could generate school-crossing activity in the
future; however, this warrant was not included because its conditions are not met at
present, it is not the primary reason for considering a signal, and due to the school
enrollment boundary it is unlikely students would be crossing South 19th Avenue.
Additionally, satisfaction of the Peak Hour Warrant alone should not be considered as
warranting a signal, as it is primarily meant for application at office complexes,
manufacturing plants, or other high-occupancy vehicle facilities that attract or
discharge large numbers of vehicles over a short time.
Based on Existing Conditions (2026) and projected Future (2031) volumes, no traffic
signal warrants are projected to be met. Minor-approach volumes are projected to
remain below MUTCD thresholds, while major-approach volumes exceed the
thresholds. The existing speed limit of 40 mph on South 19th Avenue was used to
determine which criteria to evaluate, although actual 85th-percentile speeds may be
higher which could allow application of a 70 percent volume reduction to the warrant
criteria. Even with the reduced thresholds, signal warrants are still not projected to be
met. No crashes were reported within the five-year period; therefore, the crash history
warrant is not met.

Once the Arnold Street connection is constructed and as adjacent developments are
constructed and occupied, it is recommended that volumes at this intersection are
monitored to review if the future realized volumes do warrant a signal. Traffic signal
warrant worksheets can be found in Attachment D.
Improved Intersection Capacity
Future (2031) intersection capacity calculations were evaluated at the Arnold
Street/South 19th Avenue intersection with potential mitigation improvements.
Restricting egress left-turn movements from the minor approaches, while
maintaining two-way stop control, was found to improve operations on both minor
approaches to LOS A/B during both peak hours. With this restriction, eastbound left-
turning movements would likely re-route to Stucky Road while westbound left-
turning movements would likely re-route to either Stucky Road or Graf Street.
Signalization with a basic two-phase timing plan was also evaluated and is projected
to improve operations to LOS C or better on all approaches during both peak hours,
with minimal to moderate 95th-percentile queues. Capacity calculation worksheets
for the Future with Improvements (2031) scenario are included in Attachment E.
Conclusions and Recommendations
Based on the analysis conducted for Existing Conditions (2026) and Future (2031)
volumes, a traffic signal at the Arnold Street/South 19th Avenue intersection is
neither currently warranted nor projected to be warranted by 2031, assuming full
construction and occupancy of the developments listed previously. While future
growth will introduce additional demand, minor-approach volumes and operational
performance are projected to remain below MUTCD signal warrant thresholds, even
under reduced volume threshold criteria. Projected future operations also do not fall
below accepted LOS thresholds outlined in the Bozeman UDC.
Continued monitoring of traffic growth and operational performance is
recommended to ensure that future conditions remain acceptable and that
appropriate mitigation measures are implemented if and when they become
warranted.
Consideration could also be given to restricting egress left-turn movements from the
minor approaches at the Arnold Street/South 19th Avenue intersection if the
projected future operational results are deemed to be unsatisfactory by the City of
Bozeman.

If a traffic signal is not installed at this location, then an R1-1 (Stop) sign should be
installed on the new westbound Arnold Street approach.
These measures aim to reduce vehicle delays and improve overall safety. All
transportation related improvements shall be designed in accordance with City of
Bozeman and/or MDT standards and the MUTCD.

Analysis Year/Case:Existing (2026)
This warrant is intended for application where installation of a traffic signal could be justified in order to
encourage concentration and organization of traffic flow on a roadway network
Do two or more of the intersecting routes at this location have at least one of the following
characteristics:
A. It is part of the street or highway system that serves as the principal roadway
network for through traffic flow; or
B. It includes rural or suburban highways outside, entering, or traversing a City; or
C. It appears as a major route on an official plan.
No
Does this intersection have an existing or immediately projected total entering volume of a least
1000 vehicles during a weekday typical peak hour and have a 5-year projected traffic volume that
meets one or more of Warrants 1, 2, and 3 during an average weekday?No
Does this intersection have an existing or immediately projected total entering volume of at least
1000 vph for each of any 5 hours of a Saturday or Sunday?N/A
Warrant 8 Satisfied?No
This warrant is intended for application where none of the conditions described in the other eight traffic signal
warrants are met, but the proximity to the intersection of a grade crossing on an intersection approach controlled
by a STOP or YIELD sign is the principal reason to consider installing a traffic signal.
Does a grade crossing exist on an approach controlled by a STOP or YIELD sign whereby the
center of the track nearest to the intersection is within 140 feet of the stop or yield line?
No
During the highest traffic volume hour during which the rail traffic uses the crossing, does the
plotted point representing vehicles per hour on the major street and the corresponding vehicles
per hour on the minor-street approach that crosses the track fall above the applicable curve in
Figure 4C-9 or 4C-10 (whichever is applicable) for the existing combination of approach lanes
over the track and the distance D, which is the clear storage distance?N/A
