  • Delaware National TIS Review Letter
    September 25, 2017 Mr. Troy E. Brestel Project Engineer DelDOT Division of Planning P.O. 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).
