1. The proposed connection to Route 29 needs to be a minimum of 510 feet from the
existing intersection or line up with the intersection at the signal.

2. This site plan exceeds the threshold to require a Chapter 527 Traffic Impact
Analysis.
3. The proposed road must provide a connection to the existing Boulders Road to
meet the connectivity requirements of SSAR's, 24VAC 30 -92. Without the
connection the road may not be eligible for acceptance into the State Secondary
System of Highways.
4. The CG -12 detail needs to be updated and show the proper detectable warning.
5. The proposed Functional Classification needs to be indicated on the plan.
6. If the connection is made to Boulders Road, additional traffic will need to be
shown to properly determine the design speed and pavement structural section of
the road.
7. Provide the horizontal alignment data on the roads.
8. Street design data on sheet R -4 lists University Village Road but the plans show
University Village Dr. Is this the same road?
9. The sight distance on University Village Dr. / Rd. need to be based on the correct
design speed on the road.
10. Pavement design on University Village Dr. needs to be designed in accordance
with the AASHTO method if this is designed as a collector road.
11. Storm sewer pipes need to be as perpendicular as possible to the centerline of the
road and cannot exceed 45 degrees.
12. Street Trees on University Village Dr. need to be located outside of the clear zone
of the road if this road is to be classified as a collector.

1. It appears that the parking and detention facility for this site is in conflict with a
previous plan for the widening of Proffit Road and the construction of a
roundabout at this intersection. The road plan indicates that there has been a
dedication of right of way for the road widening and intersection improvement.
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.
