Castlerock Subdivision
Attached is a sketch showing the location of the proposed office site on State Highway
40, William D. Fitch Parkway, at the west end of the proposed Castlerock Subdivision.
As shown on the sketch, there will be only 3 street or driveway connections between the
Arrington Road/SH 40 intersection, and the SH 40/Victoria Avenue intersection. All of
these will be for right in/right out traffic only. The minimum driveway spacing for SH 40
is 425 feet. The separation distance from Castlerock Parkway to the future driveway for
the Office Site is more than 3 times the 425 feet minimum distance. The profile of SH 40
in this area provides for excellent site visibility for traffic entering on SH 40, as shown on
the attached photos.
SH 40 has 2-12.5 feet wide traffic lanes and a 10.5 feet wide improved shoulder which
will serve as an acceleration/deceleration lane for traffic entering and exiting from SH 40.
Traffic entering and exiting for the Office Site Driveway can do so just as safely as the
traffic at Castlerock Parkway.
