Charlottesville, VA. 22901
Dear Mr. Pullen:
The following are our comments:
111A. Forest Lakes Section E, F, G Preliminary Plat, Route 29 N. - Loop
Road A is to be built to 35 mph design speed as previously indicated.
Street M is to be constructed to 25 mph design speed. Additional
information for ultimate traffic and terminus point is needed for Road
B to determine its design speed, as well as whether any turn lanes
would be needed on Loop Road A to serve Road B. Should Timberwood
Parkway not be extended from the intersection of Road A to Route 649,
then a curve should be used instead of the "T" intersection as shown.
Therefore, the status of the extension of Timberwood Parkway needs to
be resolved. As with the other phases within Forest Lakes, the
Department recommends curb and gutter and appropriate storm sewer
system on the streets where houses are. The Department recommends that
all lots have internal access. The Department will need to review and
approve road plans for any future State maintained roads. With this
plat, a left turn lane on Loop Road A at its intersection with
Timberwood Parkway should be added in accordance with the comments on
the traffic study.
2A. Cold Springs Hollow Preliminary Plat, Route 677 - The minimum 400
feet of sight distance is obtainable along the frontage of this
property with the removal of trees and vegetation along the frontage in
both directions for the proposed entrance. A sight easement may also
be needed to the north along the property frontage. A paved private
street commercial entrance is required for this property if this is to
have a private road. The Department recommends that 25 feet from
