�f <br /> � <br /> Response to Comments-City Engineer's Review/Submiftal of Revised Plans June 19,2�6 <br /> Crystal Bay Business Center-Orono,Minnesota Page 4 of 4 <br /> ��` The access drive to tlie west of the proposed buildings should be �noved as far back as possible from <br /> / Old Crystal Bay Road to avoid vehicle stacking problems c�t the access points. This may require <br /> moving the proposed buildings to the east. <br /> Based on anticipated queues from the February 13,2006 TIS memo,the throat distances provided <br /> appear adequate. <br /> ■ Old Crystal Bay Road should be a three-lane roadway with a shared left turn lane across the entire <br /> frontage of the project. In acidition, r•iglit tacrn la�ies shoicic�be provided in.to tlie pr•oposed <br /> development. <br /> A three-lane section is acceptable for this section of roadway. It is RLK's understanding that the road <br /> is under construction. RLK has requested plans from the City to verify roadway design. Anticipated <br /> volumes for these right tums range from 0-20 vehicles in the peak hours; the 100-vehicle threshold is <br /> unlikely to be met. Further,analysis shows that,as expected,the delay imposed on northbound . <br /> Crystal Bay Road vehicles is at or less than 0.1 second,well within Level of Service A. And since a <br /> traffic signal is in place immediately north of these two site accesses, a large percentage of <br /> northbound drivers are already slowing in order to stop for a red light at the intersection. <br /> Thank you for your assistance in reviewing the enclosed and previously submitted information;it is <br /> anticipated that this application will be heard at the June 19,2006 Planning Commission meeting and <br /> subsequent City Council meeting.
