TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE MEMO Meeting of March 25, 2014
To: City of Fayetteville Transportation Committee
Thru: Mayor Jordan
Don Marr, Chief of Staff
Jeremy Pate, Development Services Director
From: Matt Casey, Engineering Design Manager
Date: March 21 2014
Subject: Review of Block Avenue Parking
In 2010, the City of Fayetteville Transportation Division constructed improvements to Block
Avenue between Dickson Street and Center Street. Improvements included new curb and
gutter, storm sewer features, sidewalks, street trees, lighting, traffic calming measures and
parking. As a part of the design for this project, the City constructed back-in parking spaces on
the block between Dickson Street and Spring Street.
On October 22, 2010, staff presented two options for changing the parking configuration for
consideration by the Street Committee. The memo and the drawing from that discussion are
attached. At that time, this section of the Block Avenue project was already constructed.
The Street Committee looked at these two options for changing the back-in parking to head-in
parking. The first option was to modify the island construction on the west side to accommodate
the change in parking direction. This change would result in a decrease in available parking
spaces from 28 to 25 in this area. The estimated cost of this option at that time was
$39,751.00.
The second option was to leave the islands as constructed and restripe the parking spaces to
change the parking direction. This change would result in a decrease in available parking
spaces from 28 to 20 in this area. The estimated cost of this option at that time was $25,187.00
The Street Committee decided to make no changes to the design or construction of the back-in
parking spaces.
This topic has been requested to be discussed again by the Transportation Committee. The
Transportation Division has provided updated cost estimates for both of the options previously
presented. The current estimate for the first option to reconfigure the islands is $42,719.92.
The current estimate for the second option to restripe the parking is $28,077.08.

DATE: October 22, 2010
SUBJECT: Block Avenue Improvements—Alternatives from Dickson to Spring
At the request of the Street Committee on October 13th, staff developed two options for changing the back-in
parking to pull-in parking from Dickson Street to Spring Street. These options are presented for the committee
review and discussion. A concept drawing of the two options is attached. As currently constructed, this
segment of Block Avenue provides 28 back-in spaces. The two options listed below will reduce the number of
available spaces by 3 and 8 spaces respectively.
1) The first option would be to modify the existing islands on the west side to accommodate the change
in the parking direction. By constructing these changes to the islands, the parking can be configured
to provide 25 angle parking spaces in this block. The cost of these modifications is estimated to be
$39,751.00. This cost includes the modifications to the islands, the milling of the asphalt to remove
the current striping, the replacement asphalt and the replacement of the striping for the parking
spaces.
2) The second option would be to leave the islands as constructed and restripe the parking spaces to
change the parking direction. With these changes, the parking can be configured to provide 20 angle
parking spaces in this block. The cost of these modifications is estimated to be$25,187.00. This
cost includes the milling of the asphalt to remove the current striping, the asphalt replacement and
the replacement of the striping for the parking spaces.

HIGHWAY 62 AND HIGHWAY 16/112S
1-540 INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS
AHTD JOBS BB0410 AND BB0411
WASHINGTON COUNTY
Need for Improvements
Traffic congestion occurs at the Highway 62/MLK Blvd. (Exit 62) and Highway
16/112S/Wedington Dr. (Exit 64) interchanges during peak travel times. Traffic congestion is
expected to worsen as the area continues to grow.
Purpose of Proposed Improvements
The purpose of the proposed improvements is to address current and future traffic needs at
the Highway 62 and Highway 16/112S interchanges along 1-540 for all modes of
transportation. Two alternatives have been developed for the Highway 62 interchange, while
one alternative for the Highway 161112S interchange was developed. The 2006 I-540
Improvement Stud was used as a planning guide when developing the alternatives.
Purpose of this Meeting
The purpose of this meeting is to obtain public input for the proposed improvement
alternatives, particularly regarding the two alternatives shown for the Highway 62 interchange.
We also would like to hear about any congestion or safety concerns at the two interchange
areas, including access to nearby driveways and side streets, traffic backups, and bicycle and
pedestrian accessibility.
Next Step
Comments will be considered when refining the alternatives. AHTD will work with the Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA) to obtain approval. If approval is given for a change of
access to the Interstate, then project development will continue and another public meeting
may take place to give further opportunity for public comment.
