<br />Technology Enhanced Traffic Control - Location Evaluation <br /> <br />Flashing LED Signs (Regulatory and Warning) <br />1) Stop Signs at intersection of Highland and Proctor Road – Warranted and Installed (2014) <br />th <br />Two LED enhanced stop signs alerting traffic entering Proctor Rd NW from either 194 <br />Ave NW or Highland Rd NW. Because of its limited visibility on the approaches to the <br />stop signs alongside the accident history in the area, these LED enhanced stop signs are <br />justified per policy. <br /> <br />st <br />2) Trail Crossing Ahead signs at intersection of GNT and 221 Ave NW – Installed (2011) <br />st <br />221 Ave NW has a speed limit of 45 MPH, traffic count of approximately 50 VPH, peak <br />pedestrian count of approximately 75 PPH, and a crosswalk length of 26 feet. Limited <br />visibility and the unexpectedness of pedestrian crossings in a higher-speed rural area <br />served as justification for the sign installation prior to policy development. This was <br />further aided by a grant for the costs of the signage. <br /> <br />rd <br />3) Curve Ahead signs on 193 Ave NW just east of Xavier St NW. – Not Warranted (2018 review) <br />The eastbound curve has had several lane departures. While the design meets <br />specifications, the curve presents a situation where negligence can result in departing <br />the roadway. An LED flashing warning sign has been considered, but has not been <br />justified per policy. Typically, a sign that states “Curve Ahead” would require that curve <br />to have a dedicated speed limit if it did not meet the design for a posted limit. This <br />particular section has been designed to maintain the speed limit of 30 MPH throughout <br />the entirety of the curve. Other means of mitigation shall be evaluated. <br /> <br />4) Next Request– Warranted or Not-Warranted (Date of Review) <br />Warrant analysis and description <br /> <br />Speed Feedback Signs <br />1) Speed feedback sign on Proctor Ave NW by PW entrance – Warranted and Installed (2012) <br />This location is in a speed transition area, is within the vicinity of a school, the roadway <br />th <br />is posted at 40 MPH or less, and also shows the 85 percentile of traffic exceeding the <br />speed limit by 5 MPH or more. Although this is not a city street, it meets 4/5 criteria <br />needed to warrant its placement. <br /> <br />2) Speed feedback signs (2) on School St NW – Warranted and Installed (2012) <br />These signs are within the vicinity of a school, the roadway is posted at 40 MPH or less, <br />th <br />are located on a city street, and also shows the 85 percentile of traffic exceeding the <br /> <br />
