Buc-ee’s Phase 2 – Efland, NC <br /> <br />26 <br /> <br />6.9 I-40 WB Service Road – West RI/RO Site Driveway <br /> <br />The following improvements are committed with build-out of phase 1 of the Buc-ee’s – West <br />Orange County development and were assumed to be in place in the background and build-out <br />conditions: <br /> <br /> Construct the site driveway as a right-in/right-out access, with one ingress lane and one <br />egress lane, on the I-40 WB Service Road approximately 565 feet east of Mt. Willing Road <br /> Widen the I-40 WB Ramp to provide an exclusive right-turn lane with 200 feet of storage and <br />an appropriate taper. <br /> <br />With the committed improvements in place, the minor street approach (West RI/RO Site <br />Driveway) is expected to operate with short delays in the build-out traffic condition. No queuing <br />issues are expected at this intersection. Therefore, no additional improvements are recommended <br />at this intersection to accommodate site traffic. <br /> <br />Table 6.9 summarizes the operation of the intersection for the projected (2023) background and <br />build-out traffic conditions. <br /> <br />Table 6.9 <br />Level-of-Service <br />I-40 WB Service Road – West RI/RO Site Driveway <br />Condition AM Peak Hour <br />LOS (Delay) <br />PM Peak Hour <br />LOS (Delay) <br />Background (2023) Traffic SB – A (2.2) SB – A (6.3) <br />Build-out (2023) Traffic SB – A (2.0) SB – A (9.1) <br />* Note: HCM methodology does not report an overall level of service for unsignalized intersections. The level of <br />service and delay for the worst approach (per SimTraffic) are reported above for unsignalized intersections. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />472
