B. Subidivision Streets - will be public streets built <br />to NCDOT standards, 20' and 18' in pavement width, in <br />accordance with County and NCDOT guidelines. <br />C. Traffic Generated - based on the ITE 1987 Trip <br />Generation Report, Weston Place when fully developed <br />is expected to generate 332 new trips per day, or <br />approximately an eight percent increase in the traffic <br />on Mt. Carmel Church Rd. The P.M. peak hour traffic <br />is expected to be 33 trips of which 18 will approach <br />from the north and 15 from the south. With 18 trips <br />from the north per hour, or one every three minutes, a <br />left turn lane off Mt. Carmel Church onto Oak Run is <br />not necessary. The A.M. peak hour traffic is., <br />expected to be 26 trips, with about 14 trips turning <br />right to the north and 12 trips turning left to the <br />south. Again, it will not be necessary for a <br />dedicated left turn lane as Oak Run exits the <br />subdivision. The results of this traffic <br />analysis show..that Weston Place will have a very <br />minimal impact on traffic volumes on nearby public <br />roads and can be built safely and within NCDOT <br />guidelines. <br />Page 4 of 4 <br />14 <br />A <br />
