Q2 : When Prado Road is initially extended with one lane in each direction, how far will th e
edge of the road be to the nearest playing field? (not the distance to the property line, bu t
to the northwestern field playing itself). I wish to compare this initial distance to th e
distance now measured from the edge of Broad Street to the same field (which is 76',I
believe).
This is much more difficult to answer at this time since we have not designed specifically what
the initial two lane connection will look like, particularly near Broad . Since Prado near Broad i s
part of the intersection, it needs to line up with the driveway across the street . The road will b e
wider as it approaches the intersection with Broad because there will need to be turn lanes on to
Broad Street constructed with the initial project .
Therefore, the best we could estimate at this time would be that the initial two lane road section
would be a minimum of 6' farther away from the fields and could be as much as 16' farther if w e
do not construct the dual left turn lane as part of the initial projec t
