Review #1
Dear Mr. Perez:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, dated 24
September 2018, and offers the following comments:
1. Will bollards be placed on the emergency access road? If not, this entrance on to Route
742 must be upgraded to commercial entrance design standards and meet all Access
Management Regulations.
2. The decision point of the intersection sight line triangle must be offset 14.5 feet from the
edge of travelway. Also, the provided sight lines appear to be short of the required 280
feet.
3. CG-12's must be perpendicular to the crossing street, not angled toward the middle of the
intersection.
4. Note that the final site and road plans must show conformance with the VDOT Road
Design Manual Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards,
regulations or other requirements.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Justin Deel at 434-422-9894.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right-of-way. The
owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process.
Sincerely,
