Box 778 Dover, DE 19903 RE: Agreement No. 1773 Traffic Impact Study Services Task No. 1A Subtask 5A – Delaware National Dear Mr. Brestel: McCormick Taylor has completed its review of the Traffic Impact Study (TIS) for the Delaware National residential development prepared by Michael Maris Associates, Inc. (MMA) dated July 10, 2017. MMA prepared the report in a manner generally consistent with DelDOT’s Development Coordination Manual [formerly Standards and Regulations for Subdivision Streets , incorporated by reference into the New Castle County Unified Development Code 40.11.130]. The TIS evaluates the impacts of the Delaware National residential development, proposed to be located on the south side of Delaware Route 48 (Lancaster Pike / New Castle Road 237), on the east and west sides of Hercules Road (New Castle Road 282) and west of Centerville Road (New Castle Road 272) in New Castle County, Delaware. In total, the proposed development would consist of 158 single-family detached houses and 104 townhouses on approximately 205 acres of land. The Wilmington and Western Railroad runs north and south through the site, and the development would therefore be divided into three parts. The part west of Hercules Road would have 19 single-family detached houses; the part east of Hercules Road but west of the railroad would have 104 single-family detached houses; the part east of the railroad but west of Centerville Road would have 35 single-family detached houses and 104 townhouses. The following access points are proposed: two along Hercules Road (to serve all parts of the site west of the railroad) with additional access via interconnection to the Ashland Research Center and Norman Drive (to serve units east of Hercules Road and west of the railroad), one along Red Clay Drive (to serve the majority of the site east of the railroad), and one along Penn Oak Drive (to serve approximately 18 units).

  • Delaware SPCA FTOA Review Letter
    November 12, 2014 Mr. Troy E. Brestel Project Engineer DelDOT Division of Planning P.O. Box 778 Dover, DE 19903 RE: Agreement No. 1529 Traffic Impact Study Services Task No. 19A Subtask 6A – Delaware SPCA Commercial Development Dear Mr. Brestel, McCormick Taylor has completed its review of the Traffic Operational Analysis (TOA) for the Delaware SPCA commercial development prepared by The Traffic Group, Inc. (TTG), dated September 10, 2013. This review was assigned as Task Number 19A (Subtask 6A). TTG prepared the report in a manner generally consistent with DelDOT’s Standards and Regulations for Subdivision Streets and State Highway Access. The TOA evaluates impacts of the Delaware SPCA commercial development, proposed to be located on the west side of Stanton-Christiana Road (Delaware Route 7 / New Castle Road 67), approximately 1,950 feet north of Churchmans Road (Delaware Road 58 / New Castle Road 339), within New Castle County, Delaware. The proposed development would consist of a 5,125 square-foot convenience store with 20 fueling stations, a 4,000 square-foot fast food restaurant with drive-through window, and an 11,700 square-foot specialty retail center, all on approximately 21 acres of land. Two full-movement access points are proposed, both on Frontage Road (New Castle Road 336B). The North Site Access would serve as the new western leg of the intersection of Frontage Road and Frontage Road, and the South Site Access would connect to Frontage Road near the south end of the SPCA property. Construction is anticipated to be complete by 2015. Per DelDOT’s TOA Scoping Meeting Minutes dated January 23, 2013, TTG evaluated future conditions without and with the proposed Delaware SPCA commercial development.

Delaware secured 232 acres bordering the Zeneca site, known as the Blue Ball Properties and offered to provide land for the company’s expansion, as well as transportation, recreation, and other improvements that would benefit both AstraZeneca employees as well as the local community. Leaders from the Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT), the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control (DNREC), and the Delaware Economic Development Office (DEDO) became equal partners with the community in developing a master plan for the Blue Ball Properties. Project development included preparation of an environmental assessment (EA) document under NEPA, and identification of sensitive historic, cultural and natural resource areas. The project development process underwent a comprehensive minimization and avoidance evaluation to reduce impacts to natural and cultural resources on the project site and incorporated a proactive, environmental stewardship approach to mitigate for the impacts.
