Review #3
Dear Mr. Anderson:
The Department of Transportation, Charlottesville Residency Transportation and Land Use
Section, has reviewed the above referenced plan as submitted by Shimp Engineering, P.C., dated
November 1, 2017, revised May 10, 2018 and offers the following comment.
The Comments below still need to be addressed from the previous review in January.
Land Use
1. Crozet Court cul-de-sac; for circular turnarounds on short low volume residential cul-de-
sac streets, the 45 ft. minimum radius may be reduced to 30' feet when specifically
approved by the locality in consultation with emergency services. Please provide
documentation on approval from emergency services.
2. Recommend eliminating ramps at the intersection of Crozet Court and Jamestown Road. .
3. Sidewalk is outside of right of way and will not be eligible for maintenance.
4. The right of way width shown on the typical sections is not reflected on the layout sheets.
5. Drainage structures A4 to A3 recommend relocating to A4A. Should be perpendicular to
roadway.
Please provide copy of the revised Road Plans along with a comment response letter. If
further information is desired, please contact Willis C. Bedsaul at 434-422-9866.
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.
