Buc-ee’s – Efland, NC <br /> <br />8 <br /> <br />4.0 Site Traffic Distribution <br /> <br />The site-generated trips were assigned to the surrounding roadway network based on the <br />following distribution: <br /> <br /> 47% to/from the east on I-40 <br /> 47% to/from the west on I-40 <br /> 2% to/from the north on Mt. Willing Road <br /> 2% to/from the north on US-70/I-40 Connector <br /> 1% to/from the south on US-70/I-40 Connector <br /> 1% to/from the east on Ben Johnston Road <br /> <br />As noted in Section 3.0, based on receipt records from similar sites, nearly all site-generated trips <br />are expected to function as pass-by traffic. Therefore, trips assigned to I-40 were functionally <br />analyzed as pass-by trips: site trips from the west on I-40 were assigned to exit the site and <br />continue eastbound, with a similar assumption for trips from the east. As overall distribution was <br />assumed to be equal to/from the east and west on I-40, the distribution listed above was <br />simplified accordingly. <br /> <br />All other trips were assigned to/from the site consistent with typical primary trip methodology, <br />which assumes those trips would return to their origin upon exiting the site. <br /> <br />The site traffic distribution and percent assignment for the development are shown on Figure 4.1. <br /> <br />129
