Smith <br /> Planner <br /> . <br /> Orange County Planning Department <br /> Hillsborough, NC 27278 • <br /> • . <br /> Dear Ms. Smith: - <br /> • - • . • <br /> This is in reference to your request for an access review of property , <br /> 16cated in southwest quadrant of intersection of NC86 and SR1332 <br /> (Coleman -Loop Road) in -Hillsborough Township. It is recommended that <br /> a left turn lane be constructed on NC86 for any access onto NC86. <br /> • The speed limit on NC86 is 55MPH at this location. The vertical <br /> alignment is hilly. Trucks using NC86 will build up speed going <br /> downhill and probably have a difficult time stopping for traffic <br /> • stopped on NC86 waiting to turn left into the development. - The <br /> . . <br /> development also borders onto Coleman Loop Road. It is possible <br /> that access to the development can be off Coleman Mill Road with <br /> the left turn lane being constructed at the intersection of NC86 <br /> and Coleman Mill Road. We will be glad to discuss Options with the <br /> developer or his engineer as plans are being finalized. - <br /> . . <br /> Access to development off SR1395 (Harper Street) was also investigated. <br /> Access to Harper Street from this proposed development is acceptable. <br /> If we can be of any further help, please advise. • . <br /> . <br /> . .
