Re: Right-of-Way Width of Parkway Blvd. at Denton Tap Road
Dear Russell:
As follow-up to your speed letter of 10/13/88 regarding the above
referenced subject, based on the attached 10/13/88 letter from
Jerry Parche, P.E., it appears ABQ Development Corporation has no
objections to the right-of-way request by P & Z.
We are not aware of any other items needing addressed per your
speed letter.
We hope this accommodates your needs.
Sincerely,
KP/HWG/dsp

RE:
JP No. 88009; Preliminary Plat -
Parkway Boulevard (West);
Coppell, Texas
Dear Taryon:
Approval of the referenced Preliminary Plat by the City of
Coppell Planning and Zoning Commission on September 19, 1988
included a stipulation that an additional 10 feet of Right-of-Way
should be included in Parkway Boulevard on each side to yield 105
feet total Right-of-Way width within 300 feet of the Denton Tap
Road intersection.
Q Development ~orporation wishes to comply with the requirement~
of the Pl'anni~g and Zoning Commission. We will provide thet
Right-of/J~ay fogr Parkway Boulevard as requested on the Final1
Plat. ~{owever~ we feel it inadvisable to utilize the additional
~-~ feet ~ north side of Parkway Boulevard as a future
Acceleration Lane for west bound traffic. A disruptive and maybe
'~ven hazardous situation may result when traffic is given the
opportunity to accelerate and merge into a through lane shortly
after a turning maneuver. Therefore we recommend that the
ultimate intersection design require that traffic turning west
FV~ ~ onto Parkway Boulevard from Denton Tap Road ascertain that it is
;~ safe to merge directly into a through lane prior to completing
the turning maneuver by omitting any acceleration lane adjacent
to Parkway Boulevard at this location.
~~' A discussion of Acceleration and Deceleration Lanes is given on
pages'843 through 846 of A Policy. on Geometric Design of..tJ!ghwaY~
~nd Streets, 1984, American Association of State Highway and
Transportation Officials.
