35 <br /> Kimley>Morn White Cross Retail—Orange County, NC <br /> The following improvements are recommended as part of the proposed White Cross Retail <br /> development: <br /> White Cross Road at Site Driveway <br /> • Construct a full-movement site driveway with one ingress and one egress lane <br /> • Construct a southbound right-turn lane with 100 feet of storage and appropriate taper on <br /> White Cross Road <br /> Analyses indicate that the unsignalized NC 54—White Cross Road intersection currently operates <br /> with moderate delays on the minor street approach (White Cross Road) in both peak hours. The <br /> minor street approach is projected to continue operating with moderate delays in both peak hours <br /> in 2024 with or without the proposed project in place. However, it is typical for stop sign <br /> controlled side streets and driveways intersecting major streets to experience long delays during <br /> peak hours, while the majority of the traffic moving through the intersection on the major street <br /> experiences little or no delay. Furthermore, Synchro indicates that minor street queues are <br /> projected to be less than 100 feet in the peak hours and that the addition of site traffic is expected <br /> to result only in a minor increase in delays and queues. <br /> With the recommended improvements in place, the proposed Site Driveway is projected to <br /> operate with short delays and queues at White Cross Road in both peak hours at project build-out. <br /> Figure ES-1 shows the recommended roadway laneage. <br /> ES-2 <br />
