W. Watkins , <br /> NCDOT, noting that some drivers apparently use SR <br /> 1104 as a short cut to bypass the Carrboro - Chapel <br /> Hill area . NC 86 , SR 1009 and NC 54 are connected by <br /> SR 1104 and SR 1777 to the north of this area. <br /> Collins continued referencing a letter stating that <br /> NC DOT does not make traffic counts for local <br /> governments or developers . <br /> Fritz Brunsen of Philip Post & Associates presented <br /> the traffic impact report . He noted that traffic <br /> counts were taken on February 6 & 7 from 7:00 A.M. <br /> till 6 : 00 P.M. He stated that the peak periods were <br /> from 7:00 to 5 :00 A.M. and from 4:00 to 6 : 00 P.M. <br /> This is somewhere between B & A level of service. <br /> Brunsen continued that according to the Orange County <br /> Planning Staff , the acceptable level of service is <br /> Level C. <br /> Gordon asked for clarification on Level C and staff <br /> comments . Collins noted that Level C is "the ideal " . <br /> Levels D and E are approaching over-capacity while <br /> service levels A and B indicate under-utilization. <br />
