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 Blue Water Civil Design, with
no apparent date, and offers the following comments:
1. Please include a revision date in the title block to facilitate proper version control.
2. Please show all dimensions related to the entrance, including curve radii, width, throat
distance, etc.
3. Please provide turn lane warrant calculations for Worth Crossing (Rte 1722).
4. Please include drainage calculations to justify size and placement of proposed drainage
facilities.
5. Design of the pedestrian facilities along this section of Worth Crossing should be
coordinated with the County. The design requirements of a shared use path can be found
in the VDOT Road Design Manual Appendix A(1). If the path will not be extended
beyond this parcel a standard crosswalk should be installed. Additionally the county may
require curb and gutter be installed with the site plan which will impact any pedestrian
facilities.
6. Note that the final plan 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 a digital copy in PDF format of the revised plan along with a comment response
letter. If further information is desired, please contact Doug McAvoy Jr. at (540) 718-6113.
