Marvin Collins, Planning Director, entered two items into the record: 1 ) the revised water usage projections for the Hillsborough service area and 2) the traffic accidents report for US 70, both distributed at the March 25, 1985 public hearing.

He reviewed previous comments regarding improvements to existing roads. He noted that NCDOT supported deleting the westernmost entrance to Carolina Loop as it creates a five-points situation that is difficult to control . He added that NCDOT would ultimately prefer right turn only arrangements in and out of the shopping center . He indicated that a traffic signal was likely at the intersec- tion of St. Mary 's road and US 70. He added that a second traffic may eventually be added at the westernmost entrance to the development along US 70, noting that the spacing would be adequate between the signals. Peter Kramer, Planning Board member cited the Town of Hillsborough 's comments regarding traffic along St. Mary 's Road. He specifically cited the recommendation regarding the widening of US 70 and the construction of the eastern bypass.
