Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

When planning truck entrances and exits on an urban commercial site, several key factors are considered: traffic flow, safety, convenience, and minimizing interference with customer parking and pedestrian areas.

Option C is located on a one-way street that allows trucks to enter or exit smoothly without conflicting with two-way traffic or customer parking. Since the street next to point C is one-way with traffic moving away from the intersection, trucks exiting at C can merge safely and efficiently into traffic.

Option A is adjacent to customer parking, and a truck entrance here would interfere with customer access and create safety hazards.

Option B is positioned near a traffic light on a two-way street, which may complicate truck maneuvering and increase congestion at the intersection.

Option D is on a two-way street and near an intersection, which could disrupt traffic flow and cause potential safety conflicts with turning vehicles and pedestrians.

NCARB’s ARE 5.0 PPD content emphasizes locating service and delivery entrances away from customer areas and at points that allow safe, efficient truck access without disrupting primary pedestrian and vehicle circulation.
