RE: Scott’s Hill Apartments, New Hanover County, NC
Introduction
The purpose of this report is to summarize the results of US 17 at the U-turn south of
Creekwood Road. Incidentally, this U-turn movement for the signal was kept as
permitted/protected in future scenarios when it should have been changed to protected
only for the U-turn movement. As part of WMPO’s review process, it is requested to
provide the results with this movement changed to protected only.
LOS Results
Below in Table 1 is the updated LOS table for the intersection with the necessary edits
made. The AM/PM existing scenarios have remained the same, and all future scenarios
have been updated.

Conclusion
Based on the updated results, the original conclusion to not provide any
recommendations at this intersection remains. The LOS does not have a significant
change from future no build to future build scenarios, nor do the queue results show any
queueing issues.
