ZMA- 2010 -00003 Morey Creek Professional Center Application Plan and Proffers
Judy,
I have reviewed the referenced plan and proffers and have the following comments:
Proffers:
1. It appears that the proffered improvements to Fontaine Ave. and the Route 29 ramps address VDOT
concerns as stated in the Chapter 527 TIA reply to the county. We also recommended that the applicant submit
the traffic signal warrants analysis for both the north and south bound Route 29 ramps to Fontaine Ave. as
previously requested to be reviewed by VDOT prior to the approval of this request.
Plan:
2. Route 702 has a posted speed of 45 mph. The minimum taper is 200 feet and the minimum deceleration
allowing a reduction of 10 mph in the through and taper lane is 225 feet in accordance with AA5HTO deceleration
lengths.
3. Curb and gutter on the main entrance should not taper back to the edge of the road on a shoulder designed
road. It needs to end at the taper and a ditch section needs to be outside of the taper.- Please see figure 4 -9 on
page F -99 of the VDOT Road Design Manual.
4. Please provide a right turn treatment type warrant analysis for the right in only. The design of the right in
only needs to have offset curb as shown in figure 4 -9 of the VDOT Road Design Manual and should be similar in
design to drawings on page F -91 of the Road Design Manual.
5. Trees must be located outside of the clear zone of the roadway. Please identify the clear zone on the plan
typical sections or plan view of the road improvement.
6. It's recommended that the curb and gutter between the two proposed entrances be connected and the face
of curb be located 13 feet consistently from the existing edge of pavement, then planting strip and then sidewalk.
Trees between the road and road ditch are a clear zone violation and will not be permitted. The clear zone looks
like it will be 16 to 18 feet in width from the travel lane. The horizontal curve in the road may be a factor in the
clear zone requirement.
7. Use CG -7 curb and gutter.
8. The VDOT WP -2 standard will be a requirement for pavement widening.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
Joel
