There is a concern about the traffic impact that these developments may have on the
access road of S.H. 121 Bypass. Traffic signals may need to be provided to allow
vehicles to exit the subdivisions. In addition, a traffic impact analysis should be
provided to determine the impact on Denton Tap and MacArthur Blvd. by these
developments to determine if mitigation measures are required. (Note: A traffic
study has been provided and is currently being evaluated.)
Phase I
Information should be provided on the flood protection provided by the levee. The
Coppell Floodplain Ordinance requires that the height of the levee be based on the
standard project flood elevation, plus 3 feet of freeboard.
Any access to the state highway will also require TxDOT approval.
Phase H
Preliminary Comments:
1. Permission will be required from Lone Star Gas to extend the street over their
easement.
2. Any access to the state highway will also require TxDOT approval.
