85 <br /> Michael Harvey <br /> From: Nishith Trivedi <br /> Sent: Thursday, September 24, 2020 8:58 AM <br /> To: Michael Harvey <br /> Cc: Thomas Ten Eyck; Tom Altieri; Craig Benedict <br /> Subject: RE: Beaver Crossing <br /> Michael, <br /> I have finished my review of the attached two addendums for Beaver Crossing. Here are my 2 cents: <br /> • Developer may not need to remove the West bound off ramp onto service road.Though I see the benefit— <br /> reducing conflict points and less traffic on service road—the cost is more traffic getting off at Mt. Willing exit to <br /> access the site. <br /> o The added traffic light at Mt. Willing south of the interchange is appreciated but more traffic will still go <br /> to Mt. Willing even with westbound off ramp removed from service drive. <br /> • The amount of traffic added to the US-70/1-85 Connector is significant, this additional traffic may also come from <br /> and go into Ben Johnston road. As the Connector is a 4 lane divided highway, it needs left turn lanes into Ben <br /> Johnston Road due to increasing traffic <br /> o Right in/Right out on Ben Johnston Road is counterproductive <br /> • 1 do not see any benefit from moving the east driveway access north 400', it puts it very close to the power <br /> easement and rail overpass. Below is a picture depicting the close proximity where this driveway access would <br /> go. <br /> 1 <br />
