Review #3
Dear Mr. Perez:

Fax: (804) 786,2940
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Bohler, dated September 4,
2020, and offer the following comments:
Restriction of movements on Southeastern Berkmar Drive entrance to right in/right out
does not appear adequately addressed. Proposed pavement striping and markings do not
meet the minimum requirements. Please review "Restricting Left Turn Movements at
Commercial Entrances" Appendix F, Page F-97 - VDOT Road Design Manual.
2. The saw cut area appears too large. The working area to install curb and gutter is 8"-18".
The "Saw Cut" area should only be enough to allow for the installation of concrete forms
for the new curb/gutter installation. TTC- 5.2 may be adequate for this portion of the
project. Please show on plans.
3. TTC-16.1 is shown in duplicate and is outdated. Please show TTC 16.2 detail and notes.
4. This office recommends the contractor place concrete from the project side without
closing a lane on S.R.29. Allowable work hour restrictions for this portion of S.R. 29 are
10 pm to 6 am (next morning) and an exception to the allowable work hours is doubtful.
5. The "Saw Cut" area appears to be the area for mill and overlay area. Please correct the
designation on the plans.

6. Please replace the "VDOT General Notes" with the Approved AM-E. The VDOT
General notes are for subdivision development, not site plan development.
7. A Traffic Maintenance Plan (TMP) is required to obtain a permit to work within VDOT
Right of Way. The TMP shall be prepared by an Advanced Work Zone Certified person,
certification card and verification number is required on the TMP submittal.
8. Please provide a comment response letter with each submission after the initial.
If further information is desired, please contact Max Greene 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,
Adam J. Moore, P.E.
Area Land Use Engineer
