20 NCDOT REVIEW NOTES FOR DHR Otd Meredith Place formerlly Berry's Grove Park) on NC 157NearSR 1523 7 September 1999 CONIlVIENTS & REQUIREMENTS: 1. Prior to construction of -any new access or alteration of any existing access within the right of way, the developer/owner is required to secure a permit with this office. It is the responsibility of the owner/developer to obtain a permit. 2. NCDOT will require a 650' sight Distance along the inside curve of NC 157. The revised plans reflect this requirement; however, they are showing a Type A landscape buffer in front of the easement. The buffer needs to relocated behind the easement so two do not conflict. If the county requires all of their buffer along the right of way then the owner/developer may need to dedicate the proposed easement as additional right of way. 3. NCDOT will require the owner/developer to dedicate additional right of way at the intersection of SR 1523 and NC 157. The additional right of way is needed for intersection improvements. 4. The owner/developer should dedicate 10' x 70' Sight Triangles at each proposed. intersection. Please refer to the attached figure regarding the minimum design. 5. We are concerned with the proposed future stub outs between lots 54 8c 55 and Lots 12 & 13. In the past, these types of stub outs have been plagued with problems. Some of the problems included but not limited to poor connections between phases, inadequate right of way or construction easements, and ultimately designs that do not meet Minimum State guidelines for subdivision roads. This office would recommend the proposed roadways be extended to the property lines to avoid the stub outs or have roadways at Teat designed and approved as part of the subdivision approval. By reviewing the proposed design, we can check all design standazds and construction needs to insure the future roadway will be acceptable. 6. The proposed cul-de-sac around lots 19, 28, 29 and 30 is unacceptable. The cul-de-sac is functioning as a bulb and should be eliminated. 7. We are concerned about the reverse curve between lots 7 & 17. The attached plans do not provide enough detail to review the design; therefore, we will need to review this section of roadway again before any final plans are approved. The owner/developer. should provide a minimum centerline radius between 230' for local roads and 310' for collectors. 8. Prior to any construction, the owner-~laveloper will need to submit their final plans for review. The final plans should include the horizontal and_ vertical alignment information, a typical. section, drainage facilities, vicinity map, and the number of lots with the proposed driveway location. 9. The owner/developer should be awaze of General Statute 136-102.2, in which new roads are not eligible for the State Maintenance system unless certain requirements are met. An explanation of these requirements can be found on pages 13, 14 and 15 of the current (January 1999) NCDOT Subdivision Roads Manual. Particular attention should be placed on items 2 (petition for addition), 5 and 7 (occupied housing requirement), 11, 12, and 13.
