Subject: Site Review Meeting Comments February 19th, 2009 site review meeting
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Below are VDOT's comments on the Site Plans for the February 19"', 2009 Site Review Committee Meeting:
SDP - 2009 -00012 Comfort Suites Inn at Hollvmead TC- Preliminary (Gerald Gatobu)
• It needs to be verified that the entrance off Route 29 that is proposed to be extended into the site
was intended to carry hotel traffic to the hotel and other sites in this corner.
• The median cut and entrance off Timberwood Blvd. needs to be properly channelized in both the
median and the entrance to allow only right in right outs for the entrance and left ins from Route
29 traffic. Also, the median needs to be channelized to dissuade traffic from attempting to take a
left into the CVS site.
All proposed entrances from state routes or proposed state routes need to be designed in
accordance with the Minimum Standards of Entrances to State Highways. Profiles will need to be
shown on the final site plan.
