A service drive is also proposed from County Road B2 with access to the east side of the Phase One building. All access drives are staggered in comparison to the existing curb cuts for the middle school campus on the north side of County Road B2. All internal access drives are a minimum of 24 feet in width, wide enough for two -way traffic. Pedestrian access will be accommodated by an existing sidewalk on the south side of County Road B2 and a sidewalk extending south the County Road 62 into the site.
