,~ From: Doan B TrniH Ta Quy Rankin • Date: 2HU8T Tima:15~k47 • Pape 5 of 5 <br />Planning for Belated Truck and Car Tra~a: <br />The raiUtruck transloading, warehousing; and distribution will create <br />additional truck and car traffic on Powell Road. The project design calls for the <br />upgrading of Powell Road with multi-lane design fur high volume truck and car <br />traffic. Powell Road and McCabe Road would be designed to accommodate this <br />project at its full development. Also, all traffic would be routed south on Powell <br />Road to McCabe Road and exiting McCabe Road and onto State Highway 146. The <br />design would be such that there would be no increase in traffic at the intersection of <br />Powell Road and Fairmont Parkway. <br />The rail traffic malting a northlsouth crossing of Fairmont Parkway would be <br />favorably impacted in that trains coming and going from the Bayport plants would <br />have free movement into and out of the industrial areas without being slowed by <br />congestion and present inadequate rail facilities. All production from these plants <br />and the related incoming raw materials are currently handled on rail, and <br />therefore, the quantity of rail traffic crossing Fairmont Parkway would not be <br />increased by the proposed industrial park. However, it will be accommodated in a <br />way which would have less impact at the grade croasing point. <br />4 <br />
