TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM
Project: Lot 7 - Meadowland Business Park, South Burlington
Date:October 21, 2022
From: Roger Dickinson, PE, PTOE
Subject: Traffic Impact Assessment Addendum
The purpose of this Addendum is to identify the effects of a reduction in the size of the proposed
development on Lot 7 in the Meadowlands Business Park (Meadowland Drive) on future traffic
congestion and safety conditions.
Originally proposed was a 21,790 sf warehouse/general light industrial/office building. The traffic
impacts of that building were examined in a Traffic Impact Analysis prepared by Lamoureux & Dickinson
Consulting Engineers, Inc., dated March 7, 2022.
The newly proposed 13,200 sf building will provide 7,710 sf of specialty trade contractor (ITE LUC #180)
space and 5,490 sf of warehousing (ITE LUC #150) space. This change will reduce the estimated
weekday pm peak hour trip generation from 27 vte/hr (4 entering + 23 exiting) to 16 vte/hr (5 entering +
11 exiting).
The above reduced building size and revised land-uses will improve future traffic congestion and safety
conditions from what were originally projected in the TIA. The conclusion that a traffic signal is not
warranted at the Hinesburg Rd/Meadowland Dr intersection remains unchanged. In addition, the
calculated local and state transportation impact fees will also be proportionately reduced.
