~. ~ <br />X00 <br />,~.r+s <br />September 7, 1999 <br />Margaret Hauth, Town of Hillsborough <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />In conclusion, the roadway improvements listed on page 4 of the <br />Additional Analysis document indicate that if these improvements are <br />constructed, then the roadway network will be adequate in the year 2005 <br />to handle the growth in traffic due to the Hillsborough Assemblage <br />development and the background traffic growth. We concur with these <br />findings given the information provided to our offices to date. <br />Due to the remaining undeveloped land in the Old NC 86 corridor, it is <br />recommended that a comprehensive corridor improvement plan (with <br />programmed improvements documented and funded) be developed for the Old <br />NC 86 corridor through the I-40/Old NC 86 Economic Development District. <br />The corridor improvement plan should include the existing and the future <br />trip generation per the maximum land use allowed for the vacant areas <br />along the Old NC 86 corridor. <br />The corridor plan could be developed for-the Towa of Hillsborough in <br />concert with the developer of Hillsborough Assemblage, NCDOT, Orange <br />County, and the community as the Hillsborough Assemblage is constructed. <br />This would also enable the Towa and the cauanunity to work with the <br />developer to insure that their mutual traffic needs are addressed in a <br />timely manner during the construction of the Hillsborough Assemblage. <br />j:\traffic\Drojecta\tri~act\hillaborouQh\letters\tia comments memo.doc <br />Over a Century of <br />Engineering Excellence <br />
