As shown above, the intersection of NC 86 and Weaver Dairy Road will • operate at an acceptable level of service with the traffic signal in • place, both with and without the project. Delays to through traffic on Weaver Dairy Road at the project entrances would be minimal, although traffic turning left out of the project would experience average delays during peak periods. The ramps at the NC 86 and 1-40 interchange would operate well with signals, with delays during peak periods for . exiting left turns if stop control is used. Project traffic will not . substantially affect the interchange operation. ' . - B. Improvements Required _ . . As shown by Table 3, the signalization and addition of turn lanes to the . . • intersection of NC 86 and Weaver Dairy Road is required to serve both existing and planned development traffic. (This project has been completed by NCDOT). Based on peak hour conditions, a signal also appears to be desirable at the 1-40 interchange, with or without the • - project. Project exits should have separate left and right turn lanes to avoid• .. • delays for right-turning outbound traffic. Left turn lanes on Weaver Dairy Road approaching the project should be provided at both .t . entrances. Property along the Weaver Dairy Road frontage should be dedicated for widening to the planned ultimate cross section, as . . required by the County. The major internal project street should be a • _ two-lane street with a 20-foot minimum cross section. Old University •• . Station Road should be paved and constructed to County standards. . - Standard stop signs and pavement marking should be used at both . . • • project entrances, and enough clearing should be performed to ensure . adequate sight distance for exiting traffic. The entrances should be designed with adequate radii to conform with County standards and permit easy access and egress. - - - • 1 -.. .., -6- . • . . i . . • ,
