CENTRAL LOCATION TO COLLECTION ROUTES` Very Important 10 ,Consideration: To maximize waste collection efficiency; transfer stations should be located centrally fo waste collection Sife with shortest road mile distance from the centroid will be ranked roufesr As a rule of thumb in urban and suburban areas, transfer statons should be no more than 12~ miles ..highest: Distance will be measured using most directroute to away from the end of all collection routes.. Beydnd that distance, collection routes might need fo be altered fo proposed site. Route may be comprised of interstates,highways, ....enable refuse to tie collected and deposited at the transfer station within ohe operating shift ;major arterials, and street or roadway connectors. 'Definition: Road mile distance measured from proposed site to waste generation centroid - 2025 Mean Center (weighted by population and employment).

Site with mostdirecf or conuenientaccess to truck routes; major Access to tail would also afford additional transfer and disposal flexibility in the future: If is preferable to 'arterials, antl highways will be ranked highest. Street or roadway avoid routing collection and transfer vehicle traffic Through residential subdivisioh areasbecause traffic connectors must accommodate through Traffic with tfie following generated by transfer stations confnbutes to congestion; increases risk to pedesfdans; increases air functional requirements: Parking;- restricted (no parking on road); emissions, .noise, and wear on roads; and might contribute tolitfer problems. Major Intersections -traffic signals ~ cross streetstops; Posted ',Speed Limit- 35-45 MPH; and Truck Traffic- unrestricted. Potential 'Definition: Direct or convenient access to buck routes; major arterials, highways, andlor potential rail or ihtermodel rail access willbe used to further differentiate site rankings (i.e~; ten access. Major truck rcutes, arterials, and highways will be defined as 15-501, NC 54, NC 86 (excluding NC '.additional points will be added to the."total score" of any site with rail 86 north of Hillsborough); US 70, I-40, or I-85. access): Revised per 06/16/08 BOCC Work Session.
