Review #1
Dear Mr. Langille:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Collins Engineering, dated 13
May 2016, and offers the following comments:
1. SSAR regulations require a connection to a different highway, or a stub out to an
adjoining property. The proposed layout would require an SSAR exception which must
be requested in writing with documentation justifying the reason a second connection or
stub out cannot be made.
2. Can the triangular shaped intersection be eliminated, as it appears to be unnecessary and
creates and unnecessary intersection.
3. Note that the subdivision/road plan must show conformance with the VDOT Road
Design Manual Appendices B(1) and F, as well as any other applicable standards,
regulations or other requirements.
Please provide two copies of the revised plan along with a comment response letter. If further
information is desired, please contact Justin Deel at 434422-9894.
A VDOT Land Use Permit will be required prior to any work within the right-of-way. The
owner/developer must contact the Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section at (434) 422-9399 for information pertaining to this process.
Sincerely,
