• #51512 Transportation Impact Report February 11 . 1986 O d Paae Two Data: The existing road is an NCDOT road design with the standard 20 foot of pavement with a 5 to 6 foot shoulder tapered into a ditch line 5 feet from the edge of the shoulder. The road is equally divided into two standard lanes. The site distances fall below the critical vertical alignment factors specified by NCDOT. The alignment and grades do not affect the flow 'of traffic. The• intersection from Dairyland to Union Grove Church Road is properly designed to a good service level. The traffic factors indicate that the lane distribution is not constant. The inbound lane carries the majority of traffic in the morning and the outbound lane carries the traffic in the afternoon. There are no traffic interruptions due to the volume of traffic. The number of trucks is approximately 14N of the total traffic but is not a factor during the peak periods of the day. The traffic counts are broken down hourly in Appendix A as they pass by the entrance of the subdivision. Trio Generation: According to the Institute of Traffic Engineer's Trip Generation Report. a single family housing unit will produce 10 daily trips. NCDOT indicates that each single family housing unit will generate 9.3 daily trips . The Laurel Springs single family subdivision has 76 units kr. which will generate approximately 760 total average trip ends per day. Table I provides the resulting trip ends for, this project for average daily tre-ilic <ADT) conditions for A .M. and P.M. peak conditions. Under full development , Laurel Springs Subdivision will have 380 trips to the site and 380 trips away from the site on a typical weekday . The A .M. peak hour traffic will be 17 trips to the site and 42 trips away from the site. The P.M. peak hour traffic will be 48 trips to the site and 28 .:rips away from the site .
