Subject: Trip Generation – ILM Airport Hotel
Wilmington, NC
Dear Mr. Shulman:
This letter provides an estimate of the trip generation potential for the proposed ILM Airport Hotel that is
proposed to be located on the Wilmington International Airport property in the southeast quadrant of Airport
Boulevard and Gardner Road in Wilmington. It is our understanding that hotel is proposed to consist of up to
150 rooms.
Average daily traffic, weekday AM and weekday PM peak hour trips for both the existing development and
the proposed development were estimated using the methodology contained within the ITE Trip Generation
Manual, 10th Edition. The table below provides a summary of the trip generation potential for the proposed
hotel.

Based on the ITE Trip Generation Manual, 10th Edition, it is estimated the proposed development is expected to
generate up to 1,268 total trips over the course of a typical 24-hour weekday. Of the daily traffic volume, it is
anticipated that 70 trips (41 entering and 29 exiting) will occur during the weekday AM peak hour and 86 trips
(44 entering and 42 exiting) will occur during the weekday PM peak hour.

Based on the calculations presented within this letter, it is expected that the proposed development will
generate fewer than the 100 peak hour trip threshold that requires a Traffic Impact Analysis per the New
Hanover County Unified Development Ordinance (UDO).
If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact me at (336) 725-5470.
Sincerely,
Chase Smith, P.E.
