Link below has full traffic study FILE and it will also be available on the FB PAGE. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wo5fZAFSvRX8hC-h5OTZQZ5NDHOhwJ40/view?usp=drivesdk Below is the ammo, pulled directly from their own study. This is not opinion — it’s their data. ⸻ 🔴 The BIG smoking guns (from the TIA itself) 1. They admit the school creates failing conditions The study explicitly shows: • Resler @ Cimarron Canyon • Drops from LOS A → LOS C (2027) • Then deteriorates further to LOS E by 2032 • That means noticeable congestion escalating to severe delay This intersection is the gateway to your neighborhood. ⸻ 2. The school driveway FAILS at opening day This is the most damning piece: • Resler Drive at Driveway B (school exit only) • LOS F in the AM peak hour in 2027 • LOS F again in 2032 • 208–256 seconds of delay (over 3–4 minutes per vehicle) That is officially classified as over capacity — cars stuck through multiple cycles. And remember: Driveway B is dumping traffic directly onto Resler, which feeds Cimarron Canyon ⸻ 3. They rely on future signals that don’t exist yet Their own “fix” is: • New traffic signal at Resler & Cimarron Canyon — by 2032 • New traffic signal at Resler & Driveway B — by 2027 Two problems: 1. Those signals are not built 2. They explicitly say the school is NOT paying full cost Translation: “Yes it breaks traffic, but we’ll probably fix it later if funding appears.” That is not mitigation. That’s a hope and a prayer. ⸻ 4. Emergency access is treated like an afterthought The study notes: • Two “emergency-only” accesses through existing residential streets • No traffic modeling for: • Emergency response delays • Blocked primary entrance scenarios • Peak-hour evacuation or incident failure They never analyze single-point-of-failure risk — even though your neighborhood has one way in and out. That omission matters. ⸻ 5. Peak school traffic is real — and overlaps your life They confirm: • AM peak = 7:15–8:15 AM That’s: • School drop-off • Resident commuters • Emergency services • Buses + parents + neighborhood traffic all at once And they still allow LOS E/F conditions. ⸻ 🔑 What this means (plain English) • The study confirms traffic failure, not speculation • The failure occurs at the only neighborhood entrance • The worst conditions happen during morning school hours • The fixes are future, unfunded, and not guaranteed • Emergency access risk is not properly analyzed This is not “traffic will be fine.” This is “traffic will degrade to unacceptable levels, and we know it.” • “The district’s own traffic study shows LOS E and LOS F failures at our neighborhood entrance.” • “No other CISD middle school is sited at a single ingress/egress for an established neighborhood.” • “Mitigation relies on future signals that are not funded or constructed.” • “Emergency access during peak hours was not analyzed despite acknowledged congestion.” Those are not emotional arguments. Those are engineering facts.
