Mr. John Shardlow January 24, 1995 Page 3 Street, and having to cross or enter two roadways (Western Avenue and South Owasso Boulevard) for access from the site. · It is estimated that only 10 percent of the development traffic would use Millwood Street from the above mentioned site access (25 vehicles per day, or 4 vehicles during the peak hour), with the remainder using Western Avenue. Thus, the impact on Millwood Street appears to be fairly insignificant. Even if all of the 250 vehicles per day needed to use Millwood Street for one reason or another, this translates to adding approximately 25 vehicles to Millwood Street during the peak hour (or 1 vehicle every 2.4 minutes). · Concerns have been expressed about potential limited sight distance from the development site roadway accessing Dale Street (north of Terrace Drive). As it appears on the site plan, only 200 to 300 feet exists between the new roadway and where Dale Street turns northeast into South Owasso Boulevard. However, traffic should be moving slowly from South Owasso BoUlevard onto Dale Street (due to the posted 30 mph speed limit, the 900 turn from South Owasso Boulevard onto Dale Street and the railroad tracks that must be crossed prior to going southbound on Dale Street). Secondly, sight distance north and south from the new roadway appears to be clear, with motorists appearing to be able to see from the new driveway up to the curve without any obstructions. It is recommended, however, that landscaping be kept back from the driveway a short distance (50 to 100 feet) so that motorists are easily observable for Dale Street traffic. If you need any further clarification regarding any of the above mentioned items, or if we can provide any assistance in further evaluating any of these concerns, please feel free to contact us. tIo c: Len Newquist, SEH John Gray, SEH
