SDP - 2012 -00030 Estes Park - Preliminary Site Plan
Megan,
I have reviewed the subject plan and have the following comments:
Previous VDOT comments have not been adequately addressed for the streets internal to the site. The applicants
responses that the road geometry was in consultation with VDOT during the rezoning is inaccurate. VDOT made the
same comments on many revisions of the rezoning plan and never approved the substandard geometry shown on this
plan.
It is assumed by the comment responses that the applicant is unwilling to meet the minimum VDOT standards in
accordance with the Secondary Street Acceptance Regulations. These streets as shown in the site plan are not eligible
for inclusion in the State Secondary System of Highways for maintenance. VDOT's review from here forward will be
based only on the connection to Worth Crossing as a commercial entrance and the emergency entrance to Moubry
Lane.
3. Previous comments from VDOT on February 3, 2012 for the rezoning plan noted that the second connection to Moubry
Lane had been removed and the increase in traffic to the entrance at Worth crossing will now warrant a right turn
taper. The design of the taper will need to be shown in the site plan.
4. Show sight distances and sight line profiles at the proposed street connection to Worth Crossing.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Joel
