Item Defeated by the Traffic Review Board at their September 9, 2003 Meeting
REQUEST FOR A STOP SIGN ON HICKORY COURT AT ITS INTERSECTION WITH HICKORY
LANE. [CURRENT CONDITION: NO CONTROL].
This is a request from a citizen in the area.
The warrants for a yield sign are as follows:
1) Three or more right angle accidents in a twelve month period.
2) 1,500 for more vehicles per day.
3) Inadequate sight distance.
There have not been any reportable accidents at this intersection in the last three years.
The traffic volume at this intersection is approximately 750 vehicles per day. This level of
traffic doesn't meet the required level for the installation of a yield sign.
The required stopping distance for a vehicle traveling 25 mph is 120 feet. This intersection
has approximately 105 feet of sight distance, due to bushes located east of this intersection.
The traffic split is 13% on Hickory Court and 87% on Hickory Lane. This is a T-type
intersection that should reduce the speed of vehicles on Hickory Court, which is required
to make a turning movement. The fact that Hickory Court is a cul-de-sac and this
intersection is a T-type intersection negates the need for a stop sign or yield sign.
