This property is located on South Bird Street,a City of Sun Prairie road. We have spoken to the City of Sun Prairie and they feel the best place for our driveway would be on the very southeast corner of the property.The driveway will be a minimum of 18'-20'wide to allow appropriate room for cars both coming to and leaving the property. During the work week,when traffic volume is highest,we will not be operating. So traffic will not be an issue. Also,it is important to note that we will have a long driveway(350+feet)leading to our parking lot which will allow cars to quickly get off South Bird Street and into the property without being blocked by other traffic entering the property. The long driveway also allows for adequate cueing upon exit of the property. Our parking lot will have 120 spaces which is well above the state requirement for this property and our capacity.
