Abstract

Traffic volume studies were performed on two existing gaming casinos in the metropolitan area of St. Louis, MO, namely, the Casino St. Charles and the Casino Queen. The studies determined the hourly vehicular volumes and daily variations, and utilized projections from an economic report for a proposed casino to provide multiplication factors for traffic counted in any given month, to that expected during the peak summer months. It is suggested that separate counts of customer and employee vehicular traffic and trucks be taken on busy weekdays and on a Saturday evening, if a street capacity problem is likely.
