Middle Sound Loop Senior Apartments - Wilmington, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Lorenzo:
This letter provides trip generation information prepared by Ramey Kemp & Associates, Inc. (RKA) for the
proposed Middle Sound Loop Senior Apartments located on Middle Sound Loop Road just west of
Sunnybranch Road in Wilmington, North Carolina.
The proposed development is anticipated to consist of a 72 attached senior adult housing dwelling units.
Average weekday daily, AM peak hour trips, and PM peak hour trips for the proposed development were
estimated using methodology contained within the 10th Edition of the ITE Trip Generation Manual. Traffic
volumes for Senior Adult Housing - Attached (ITE Code 252) were generated utilizing ITE equations [for the
peak hour adjacent street traffic] and dwelling units as the independent variable. Refer to Table 1 for a
breakdown of the trip generation for the proposed development.

It is estimated the proposed development will generate 264 daily trips (in and out) during a typical 24-hour
weekday period with 14 total trips (5 entering and 9 exiting) generated during the AM peak hour and 20 total
trips (11 entering and 9 exiting) during the PM peak hour.
The expected daily and peak hour trip generation are well below the WMPO’s [1,000 vpd daily and 100 vph]
and NCDOT’s [3,000 vpd] thresholds; therefore, a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) should not be warranted
based on each agency’s guidelines.
