Subject: Site Review Meeting Comments August 4"', 2011 site review meeting
Dear Mr. Brooks:
Below are VDOT's comments on the Site Plans for the August 4"', 2011 Site Review Committee Meeting:
SDP - 2011 -00049 Timberwood Commons -Final (Ellie Ray)
1. Timberwood Blvd was designed to be a public road but has not yet been added to the state secondary
system of highways.
2. Timberwood Blvd was designed for just under 10,000 vehicles per day according to the Hollymead
Towncenter Traffic impact Analysis and serves as an urban collector road. On street parking between
route 29 and the second roundabout on Timberwood is not typical to this road. Adding 4 spaces on one
section of the road within close proximity of the Route 29 intersection and the first roundabout could
cause operational problems or conflicts that lead to an increase in crashes in this area. The four proposed
spaces should be accommodated within the proposed parking areas and removed from the street.
SUB- 2011 -00081 Kenridge -Final (Megan Yaniglos)
1. No comments
SUB- 2011 -00083 Glenmore Section K2B- Preliminary (lots 9 -16)
1. This subdivision is on a private road system. The recent construction of the signal at Glenmore Way and
Route 250 will accommodate an increase in use at the intersection.
Please request the applicants provide a written description of revisions with re- submissions. If you have any
questions or comments, please contact me prior to sharing these comments with the applicants.
Sincerely,
