TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDY FOR <br />BOOE/UNTZ DEVELOPMENT <br /> <br />The traffic study below is created on behalf of the proposed residential <br />community that will be located to the west of Shiloh Church Road between <br />Odell School Road and NC Hwy. 73. <br />The proposed community will be comprised of 942 single-family lots, which <br />will yield 9,420 vehicular trips per day. We anticipate the total amount of <br />daily trips will be equally split between the tw° entrances to the site, Shiloh <br />Church Road (which exits into Cabarrus County) to the east and Shearer <br />Road (which exits into Mecklenburg County) to the west. The first four <br />roads below are located within close proximity to our site, are roughly the <br />same length, and have roughly the same capacity. The fifth road, Shiloh <br />Church Road, will be one of the two access points to our site and will be <br />aided by turn lanes at the time of development. The traffic count for Shiloh <br />Church Road was compiled on Thursday the 23rd of September. Shearer <br />Road, which no data has been located as of yet, will also require turn lanes <br />in order to handle the increased traffic capacity. <br /> <br />The data below was gathered by the Department of Transportation. <br /> <br />Road Name State Road # Avg.cars/day Length (miles) <br />Archer Road SR 1612 780 2.6 <br />Eamhardt Lake Road SR 1613 720 2.9 <br />Jim Johnson Road SR 1602 300 1.9 <br />Coxmill Road SR 1488 550 1.9 <br />Shiloh ChUrch Road i SR 1843 : 662 ' ~i!~!i 2,8 <br /> <br />The Department of Transportation found the capacity of Shiloh Church <br />Road to be 850 vehicles/hour. This data was found using the following <br />parameters: 45 MPH speed limit, 80% passing zone over a total length of 2 <br />miles and level terrain on 18 feet of pavement with a 4 foot shoulder on each <br />lane. Shiloh Church Road has a service level of C with 5% of the traffic <br />during peak hours being truck traffic. The existing traffic during peak hours <br />on Shiloh Church Road is 100 vehicles/hour. <br /> <br />F:kDatakEng\990706\dwg\TRAFFIC IMPACT STUDYg.30.99.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
