TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS
ANDERSON PROPERTY (OLD BATTLE BRIDGE ROAD) DEVELOPMENT
WENDELL, NORTH CAROLINA
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1. Development Overview
A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was conducted for the proposed Anderson Property (Old Battle
Bridge Road) development in accordance with the Wendell (Town) Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO) and North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) capacity analysis
guidelines. The proposed development is to be located in the southwest quadrant at the
intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road in Wendell, North Carolina. The
proposed development is expected to consist of approximately 200 single-family homes and 106
multi-family homes and is expected to be built-out in 2022. The land uses were broken down
based on their location and available access points are divided as follows:
Site A – 103 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can
be accessed via Site Drive 1 and Site Drive 2
Site B – 6 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 3 only
Site C – 91 single-family homes located west of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 4, Site Drive 5, and Site Drive 6
Site D – 32 townhomes located north of Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via
Site Drive 9, Site Drive 10, and Site Drive 11
Site E – 16 townhomes located west of Road A and can be accessed via Site Drive
7 and Street A
Site F – 58 townhomes located east of Road A confined by Old Tarboro Road and
Realigned Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via Site Drive 8 and Street A

2. Existing Traffic Conditions
The study area for the TIA was determined through coordination with the Town and NCDOT and
consists of the following existing intersections:
Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road and Eagle Rock Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road and Martin Pond Road (unsignalized)
Old Tarboro Road and Eagle Rock Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road / NC 97 and Wendell Boulevard (signalized)
Eagle Rock Road / Rolesville Road and Wendell Boulevard (signalized)
Existing peak hour traffic volumes were determined based on traffic counts conducted at the study
intersections listed above, in May of 2019 by RKA during a typical weekday AM (7:00 AM –
9:00 AM) and PM (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM) peak periods. It should be noted that low traffic volumes
were recorded along Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road. This is expected to be due to
the abandoned bridge north of the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road
along Old Battle Bridge Road. The bridge is scheduled to be replaced in May of 2020. The land
adjacent to the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road consists primarily of
undeveloped land; therefore, no trips were diverted based on the reconstruction of the bridge. This
methodology was discussed with NCDOT and was approved as part of the MOU. Traffic volumes
were balanced between study intersections, where appropriate.
3. Site Trip Generation
The proposed development is assumed to consist of approximately 200 single-family homes and
106 multi-family homes. Average weekday daily, AM peak hour, and PM peak hour trips for the
proposed development were estimated using methodology contained within the ITE Trip
Generation Manual, 10th Edition. Table E-1, on the following page, provides a summary of the
trip generation potential for the site.

Table E-1: Site Trip Generation
4. Future Traffic Conditions
Through coordination with the Town and NCDOT, it was determined that an annual growth rate
of 4% would be used to generate projected (2023) weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic
volumes. Based on discussion with the Town and NCDOT, it was determined that an annual
growth rate of 2% would be maintained after 2023 to generate projected (2032) weekday AM and
PM peak hour traffic volumes. The growth rate was lowered to 2% after 2023 conditions to
provide a more reasonable estimate of traffic conditions in 2032. This growth rate is expected to
capture any adjacent developments expected in the vicinity of the site.
The study analyzes traffic conditions during the weekday AM and PM peak hours for the
following scenarios:

TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS
ANDERSON PROPERTY (OLD BATTLE BRIDGE ROAD) DEVELOPMENT
WENDELL, NORTH CAROLINA
1. INTRODUCTION
The contents of this report present the findings of the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) conducted
for the proposed Anderson Property (Old Battle Bridge Road) development to be located in the
southwest quadrant at the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road in
Wendell, North Carolina. The purpose of this study is to determine the potential impacts to the
surrounding transportation system created by traffic generated by the proposed development,
as well as recommend improvements to mitigate the impacts. The proposed development is
expected to consist of approximately 200 single-family homes and 106 multi-family homes
and is expected to be built-out in 2022. The land uses were broken down based on their
location and available access points and are divided as follows:
Site A – 103 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can
be accessed via Site Drive 1 and Site Drive 2
Site B – 6 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 3 only
Site C – 91 single-family homes located west of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 4, Site Drive 5, and Site Drive 6
Site D – 32 townhomes located north of Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via
Site Drive 9, Site Drive 10, and Site Drive 11
Site E – 16 townhomes located west of Road A and can be accessed via Site Drive
7 and Street A
Site F – 58 townhomes located east of Road A confined by Old Tarboro Road and
Realigned Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via Site Drive 8 and Street A
Based on the Town of Wendell’s (Town’s) Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), future
scenarios were analyzed one (1) year and ten (10) years after the build-out year of the
proposed development (2022); therefore, future scenarios will be analyzed for years 2023 and

1.4. Existing Roadways
Existing lane configurations (number of traffic lanes on each intersection approach), lane
widths, storage capacities, and other intersection and roadway information was collected
through field reconnaissance by Ramey Kemp & Associates, Inc. (RKA). It should be noted
that there is an abandoned bridge north of the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle
Bridge Road along Old Battle Bridge Road. Based on coordination with the NCDOT, the
bridge is scheduled to be replaced in May 2020. The land adjacent to the intersection of Old
Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road consists primarily of undeveloped land; therefore,
no trips were diverted based on the reconstruction of the bridge. This methodology was
discussed with NCDOT and was approved as part of the MOU. Refer to Appendix A for the

2. EXISTING (2019) PEAK HOUR CONDITIONS
2.1. Existing (2019) Peak Hour Traffic
Existing peak hour traffic volumes were determined based on traffic counts conducted at the
study intersections listed below, in May of 2019 by RKA during a typical weekday AM (7:00
AM – 9:00 AM) and PM (4:00 PM – 6:00 PM) peak periods:
Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road and Eagle Rock Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road and Martin Pond Road (unsignalized)
Old Tarboro Road and Eagle Rock Road (unsignalized)
Old Battle Bridge Road / NC 97 and Wendell Boulevard (signalized)
Eagle Rock Road / Rolesville Road and Wendell Boulevard (signalized)
Traffic volumes were balanced between study intersections, where appropriate. It should be
noted that low traffic volumes were recorded along Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge
Road. This is expected to be due to the abandoned bridge north of the intersection of Old
Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road along Old Battle Bridge Road. The bridge is
scheduled to be replaced in May of 2020. The land adjacent to the intersection of Old Tarboro
Road and Old Battle Bridge Road consists primarily of undeveloped land; therefore, no trips
were diverted based on the reconstruction of the bridge. Refer to Figure 4 for existing (2019)
weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes. A copy of the count data is located in
Appendix B of this report.
2.2. Analysis of Existing (2019) Peak Hour Traffic
The existing (2019) weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes were analyzed to
determine the current levels of service at the study intersections under existing roadway
conditions. Signal information was obtained from NCDOT and is included in Appendix C. The
results of the analysis are presented in Section 7 of this report.

3. BACKGROUND (2023/2032) PEAK HOUR CONDITIONS
In order to account for growth of traffic and subsequent traffic conditions at a future year,
background traffic projections are needed. Background traffic is the component of traffic due
to the growth of the community and surrounding area that is anticipated to occur regardless of
whether or not the proposed development is constructed. Background traffic is comprised of
existing traffic growth within the study area and additional traffic created as a result of
adjacent approved developments.
Based on the Town’s UDO, future scenarios should be analyzed one (1) year and ten (10)
years after the build-out year of the proposed development (2022); therefore, future scenarios
will be analyzed for years 2023 and 2032.
3.1. Ambient Traffic Growth
Through coordination with the Town and NCDOT, it was determined that an annual growth
rate of 4% would be used to generate projected (2023) weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic
volumes based on a review of traffic growth patterns and adjacent development information.
Based on discussion with the Town and NCDOT, it was determined that an annual growth rate
of 2% would be maintained after 2023 to generate projected (2032) weekday AM and PM
peak hour traffic volumes. The growth rate was lowered to 2% after 2023 conditions to
provide a more reasonable estimate of traffic conditions in 2032. This growth rate is expected
to capture any adjacent developments expected in the vicinity of the site. Refer to Appendix A
for a copy of the MOU.
3.2. Adjacent Development Traffic
Through coordination with the NCDOT and Town, it was determined there were no adjacent
developments to be included in the study.
3.3. Future Roadway Improvements
Based on coordination with the NCDOT and the Town, it was determined that the Old Battle
Bridge Road bridge replacement should be considered with this study. During data collection,
an abandoned bridge was located north of the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle
Bridge Road along Old Battle Bridge Road. The bridge is scheduled to be replaced in May of
Traffic Impact Analysis Anderson Property – Wendell, North Carolina

2020. The land adjacent to the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road
consists primarily of undeveloped land; therefore, no trips were diverted based on the
reconstruction of the bridge.
3.4. Background (2023/2032) Peak Hour Traffic Volumes
The background (2023) and background (2032) traffic volumes were determined by projecting
the existing (2019) peak hour traffic to the year 2023 and 2032, respectively. Refer to Figure
5a and Figure 5b for an illustration of the background (2023) and background (2032) peak
hour traffic volumes, respectively, at the study intersections.
3.5. Analysis of Background (2023/2032) Peak Hour Traffic Conditions
The background (2023/2032) AM and PM peak hour traffic volumes at the study intersections
were analyzed with future geometric roadway conditions and traffic control. The analysis
results are presented in Section 7 of this report.

4. SITE TRIP GENERATION AND DISTRIBUTION
4.1. Trip Generation
The proposed development is assumed to consist of approximately 200 single-family homes
and 106 multi-family homes. Average weekday daily, AM peak hour, and PM peak hour trips
for the proposed development were estimated using methodology contained within the ITE
Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition. The land uses were broken down based on their
location and available access points and are divided as follows:
Site A – 103 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can
be accessed via Site Drive 1 and Site Drive 2
Site B – 6 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 3 only
Site C – 91 single-family homes located west of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 4, Site Drive 5, and Site Drive 6
Site D – 32 townhomes located north of Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via
Site Drive 9, Site Drive 10, and Site Drive 11
Site E – 16 townhomes located west of Road A and can be accessed via Site Drive
7 and Street A
Site F – 58 townhomes located east of Road A confined by Old Tarboro Road and
Realigned Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via Site Drive 8 and Street A
It should be noted that this methodology provides a conservative estimation of the trip
generation for the full site due to the nature of the equation methodology, as recommended by
NCDOT, and due to rounding. Refer to Table 2 on the following page for a summary of the
trip generation potential for the site.

It is estimated that the proposed development will generate approximately 2,800 total site trips
on the roadway network during a typical 24-hour weekday period. Of the daily traffic volume,
it is anticipated that 208 trips (50 entering and 158 exiting) will occur during the weekday AM
peak hour and 274 (173 entering and 101 exiting) will occur during the PM peak hour. It
should be noted that this methodology provides a conservative estimation of the trip generation
for the full site due to rounding and to the nature of the suggested equation methodology as
identified by NCDOT to be utilized for the Single-Family Detached Housing and Townhomes
land uses.
4.2. Site Trip Distribution and Assignment
Trip distribution percentages used in assigning site traffic for this development were estimated
based on a combination of existing traffic patterns, population centers adjacent to the study
area, and engineering judgment. It is estimated that trips will be distributed as follows:
65% to/from the west via Wendell Boulevard
5% to/from the north via Rolesville Road
15% to/from the north via NC 97
15% to/from the east via Wendell Boulevard
Traffic Impact Analysis Anderson Property – Wendell, North Carolina

A separate site trip distribution was applied for Sites A-F, respectively, based on their
proposed access. The site trip distribution figures are shown in Figures 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 6e, and
6f. Refer to Figure 7a, 7b, 7c, 7d, 7e, and 7f for each of the residential site trip assignments.
The total site trips were determined by adding the site trips for Sites A-F. Refer to Figure 8 for
the total site trip assignment.

5. COMBINED (2023/2032) TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
5.1. Combined (2023/2032) Peak Hour Traffic Volumes
To estimate traffic conditions with the site fully built-out, the total site trips were added to the
background (2023) and background (2032) traffic volumes to determine the combined (2023)
and combined (2032) traffic volumes, respectively. Refer to Figure 9a and Figure 9b for an
illustration of the combined (2023) and combined (2032) peak hour traffic volumes,
respectively, with the proposed site fully developed.
5.2. Analysis of Combined (2023/2032) Peak Hour Traffic
Study intersections were analyzed with the combined (2023/2032) traffic volumes using the
same methodology previously discussed for existing and background traffic conditions.
Intersections were analyzed with improvements necessary to accommodate future traffic
volumes. The results of the capacity analysis for each intersection are presented in Section 7 of
this report.

Traffic Impact Analysis Anderson Property – Wendell, North Carolina

6. TRAFFIC ANALYSIS PROCEDURE
Study intersections were analyzed using the methodology outlined in the Highway Capacity
Manual, 6th Edition (HCM) published by the Transportation Research Board. Capacity and
level of service are the design criteria for this traffic study. A computer software package,
Synchro (Version 10.3), was used to complete the analyses for most of the study area
intersections. Please note that the unsignalized capacity analysis does not provide an overall
level of service for an intersection; only delay for an approach with a conflicting movement.
The HCM defines capacity as “the maximum hourly rate at which persons or vehicles can
reasonably be expected to traverse a point or uniform section of a lane or roadway during a
given time period under prevailing roadway, traffic, and control conditions.” Level of service
(LOS) is a term used to represent different driving conditions, and is defined as a “qualitative
measure describing operational conditions within a traffic stream, and their perception by
motorists and/or passengers.” Level of service varies from Level “A” representing free flow, to
Level “F” where breakdown conditions are evident. Refer to Table 3 for HCM levels of
service and related average control delay per vehicle for both signalized and unsignalized
intersections. Control delay as defined by the HCM includes “initial deceleration delay, queue
move-up time, stopped delay, and final acceleration delay”. An average control delay of 50
seconds at a signalized intersection results in LOS “D” operation at the intersection.

conditions indicates the intersection of Eagle Rock Road / Rolesville Road and Wendell
Boulevard is expected to operate at an overall LOS D or better during the weekday AM and
PM peak hours. Under background (2032) and combined (2032) traffic conditions, the
intersection is expected to operate at an overall LOS D during the weekday AM peak hour and
an overall LOS E during the weekday PM peak hour. With signal timing adjustments, the
intersection is expected to operate at LOS D during the weekday AM and PM peak hours
under combined (2032) conditions. It should be noted that it would be likely that these timing
adjustments would occur even without this recommendation due to growth and change in
traffic patterns over time.
The site is expected to contribute approximately 5% of the total future (2032) traffic at this
intersection. Due to the low impact of the site on the study intersection, no improvements are
recommended by the developer.

8. CONCLUSIONS
This Traffic Impact Analysis was conducted to determine the potential traffic impacts of the
proposed Anderson Property (Old Battle Bridge Road) development, located in the southwest
quadrant at the intersection of Old Tarboro Road and Old Battle Bridge Road in Wendell,
North Carolina. The proposed development is expected to be built out in 2022 and is expected
to consist of approximately 200 single-family homes and 106 multi-family homes. The land
uses were broken down based on their location and available access points and are divided as
follows:
Site A – 103 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can
be accessed via Site Drive 1 and Site Drive 2
Site B – 6 single-family homes located east of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 3 only
Site C – 91 single-family homes located west of Old Battle Bridge Road and can be
accessed via Site Drive 4, Site Drive 5, and Site Drive 6
Site D – 32 townhomes located north of Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via
Site Drive 9, Site Drive 10, and Site Drive 11
Site E – 16 townhomes located west of Road A and can be accessed via Site Drive
7 and Street A
Site F – 58 townhomes located east of Road A confined by Old Tarboro Road and
Realigned Old Tarboro Road and can be accessed via Site Drive 8 and Street A
Site access is proposed via four (4) full movement intersections along Old Battle Bridge Road
(to access Site A, Site B, and Site C), two (2) full movement intersections along Realigned Old
Tarboro Road (to access Site C, Site E, and Site F), and five (5) full movement intersections
along Old Tarboro Road (to access Site D, Site E, and Site F). Based on the Town of
Wendell’s (Town’s) Unified Development Ordinance (UDO), future scenarios were analyzed
one (1) year and ten (10) years after the build-out year of the proposed development (2022);
therefore, future scenarios will be analyzed for years 2023 and 2032. The study analyzes traffic
conditions during the weekday AM and PM peak hours for the following scenarios:

Combined (2032) Traffic Conditions – Improved
Trip Generation
It is estimated that the proposed development will generate approximately 2,800 total site trips
on the roadway network during a typical 24-hour weekday period. Of the daily traffic volume,
it is anticipated that 208 trips (50 entering and 158 exiting) will occur during the weekday AM
peak hour and 274 (173 entering and 101 exiting) will occur during the PM peak hour. It
should be noted that this methodology provides a conservative estimation of the trip generation
for the full site due to rounding and to the nature of the suggested equation methodology as
identified by NCDOT to be utilized for the Single-Family Detached Housing and Townhomes
land uses.
Adjustments to Analysis Guidelines
Capacity analysis at all study intersections was completed according to the Town’s LDO and
NCDOT Congestion Management Guidelines. Refer to section 6.1 of this report for a detailed
description of any adjustments to these guidelines made throughout the analysis.
Intersection Capacity Analysis Summary
All the study area intersections (including the proposed site driveways) are expected to operate
at acceptable levels-of-service under existing and future year conditions with the exception of
the intersections listed below. A summary of the study area intersections that are expected to
need improvements are as follows:
Eagle Rock Road / Rolesville Road and Wendell Boulevard
Under background (2032) and combined (2032) traffic conditions, the intersection is expected
to operate at an overall LOS D during the weekday AM peak hour and an overall LOS E
during the weekday PM peak hour. With signal timing adjustments, the intersection is
expected to operate at LOS D during the weekday AM and PM peak hours under combined
Traffic Impact Analysis Anderson Property – Wendell, North Carolina
55
(2032) conditions. It should be noted that it would be likely that these timing adjustments
would occur even without this recommendation due to growth and change in traffic patterns
over time. The site is expected to contribute approximately 5% of the total future (2032) traffic
at this intersection. Due to the low impact of the site on the study intersection, no
improvements are recommended by the developer.
