Atlantic Fields too big to understand full impact

December 26, 2025

Delivery trucks alone will wreak havoc on the three adjacent roads that will be used to enter and exit Atlantic Fields. Do you know the turning radius of 18-wheeler trucks? Do you know the number and size of delivery trucks that will be required to restock all of these specific businesses? Please do not approve this development as currently proposed. Please consider the full impact on adjacent areas if this project is to move forward before appropriate roadway improvements have been clearly spelled out and timelines for completion identified. This is far too massive a project to approve without understanding the full impact on this area.
