RE: Approval with conditions for the Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) associated with the Cookout (Market
Street) development in New Hanover County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. James,
The WMPO has coordinated the review of the Cookout (Market Street) TIA (sealed October 27, 2025) by
NCDOT and New Hanover County Staff. Based on the information provided and conversations held to date, it is
our understanding that the proposed development will be built in 2027 and will consist of:
• 45.5k Adjacent VPD: Cook Out (Custom Trip Generation Study)
The following improvements are required for this development:
US 17 (Market Street) at Site Access (existing right-in/right-out driveway)
• No improvements are required.
If changes are made to the proposed site driveways and/or land uses, the current trip distribution may need to
be modified and would require a revised Traffic Impact Analysis to be submitted for review by the NCDOT,
WMPO, and New Hanover County, in which instance this approval would become null and void.
The applicant is required to obtain all applicable New Hanover County and NCDOT permits for access to the road
network. A copy of this TIA approval shall be included with any NCDOT driveway permit application. All applicable
NCDOT and New Hanover County technical standards and policies shall apply.
Please contact me at (910) 473-5130 with any questions regarding this approval.
