It's been forever since I've been up that way, but will 250 trailers a day fit in with that infrastructure? Can they expand road access with how tightly packed it is?

They just knocked down the old Sylvan(?) learning building which I hope is done in plans to merge the two streets as I don't see how keeping both Brooks and Pullman intersections at Mountain St W is feasible with the added traffic.

Even merging those two, it's going to definitely have a large impact on the Mountain St W/Frontage Rd/Brooks intersection.

That's what I thought. I remember going to some popular movies (like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Titanic) on a weekend night and the traffic was bricked.

there’s a sign on the corner of the property that says they’re looking to build to suit or the land out so I doubt that it’s going to merge the two roads together. Good idea though.

276 trips a day, in a 16 hour day, means one truck every 3 to 4 minutes, or less than one per light cycle. It sounds like a lot more than it is.

That’s what I thought but there’s supposed to be 4 companies there so I doubt they’ll be staggered across the whole 16 hours. There’s bound to be rushes and they may coincide with regular traffic.
