OIHKOJH ON THE WATER MEMORANDUM TO: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager FROM: Christopher Strong, Transportation Director DATE: July 18, 2012 RE: Explanation of Traffic Regulations Ordinance Changes SECTION 1: SECTION 27-23(A-11) PARKING REGULATIONS A REQUEST FOR TWO-HOUR PARKING ON THE WEST SIDE OF CENTRAL STREET FROM NEW YORK AVENUE TO 90 FEET NORTH OF NEW YORK AVENUE BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 7:00 A.M.AND 4:00 P.M.ON SCHOOL DAYS.(CURRENT CONDITION: NO PARKING, STOPPING, STANDING OR WAITING.) This is a school district request. City staff met with representatives from Merrill Middle School and the Oshkosh Area School District to discuss concerns related to student pick-up and drop-off at the school. The school is at the northwest corner of New York Avenue and Central Street. Parking is prohibited on New York Avenue, so most pick-up and drop-off activity occurs on Central Street. These requests, along with the following one, are intended to collectively improve how the pick-up/drop-off area functions. Parking has been prohibited on the west side of this section of street since 1994, when bus loading occurred on this side of the street. Now, bus loading occurs on the north side of the school (off-street). Apart from the small off-street parking area, much of the area on the west side of the street could be set aside for a loading zone. This would allow students to enter or leave vehicles without having to cross Central Street. One concern with this request is that Central Street is a narrow street (28' paved width) without a well-defined curb. However,parking may be permitted on both sides of the street, according to the City's guidelines for on-street parking restrictions on local streets(see Table 1).Since Central Street is a one-way street,and the highest traffic volumes of the day are likely associated with student pick- up and drop-off,allowing parking on the west side of the street should not introduce new congestion or safety hazards. Page 2 of 5 Explanation of Traffic Ordinance Changes Table 1: Parking Restriction Guidelines on Local Streets Street Width Parking Restrictions Less than 17 feet Both Sides (All cases) 17 to 24 feet One Side (All cases) 25 to 33 feet Valid Petition 34 feet and over None Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Becker feared we would be making a dangerous situation worse. By Webster Stanley School, where there is a similar parking restriction, he has observed double parking occurring all the time. Mr. Strong has heard many similar stories at schools and it comes down to cases where parents do not follow the parking rules. Mr. Kaprelian felt the Police Department needs to do strict enforcement in the beginning of the school year. PASSED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (3-2) A REQUEST FOR 2-HOUR PARKING ON THE EAST SIDE OF CENTRAL STREET FROM NEW YORK AVENUE TO 160 FEET NORTH OF NEW YORK AVENUE BETWEEN 7:00 A.M. AND 4:00 P.M. ON SCHOOL DAYS. (CURRENT CONDITION: UNRESTRICTED PARKING.) This is a school district request. The purpose of this request is to provide an area that can be used for student pick-up and drop-off on the east side of Central Street, to supplement the areas proposed under the previous agenda items. Currently, parking is unrestricted on the east side of the road. Allowing parking with a 2- hour maximum duration allows the parking to be used for student pick-up and drop-off, as well as for some school visitors. It would restrict the ability of employees to use these spaces. As noted under a previous agenda item, Central Street is 28 feet wide with no defined curbing in this area. If vehicles park on both sides of the street and are not sufficiently close to the edge of the pavement, it may become difficult for traffic on Central Street to travel through. If the Board recommends approval of this item as well as the previous two agenda items, this would effectively move the loading zone from the east side of Central Street to the west side. This would reduce the need of pedestrians to cross Central Street when dropped off at or picked Page 3 of 5 Explanation of Traffic Ordinance Changes up from school. Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Hall felt this request made sense and he was fine with it. PASSED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (5-0). A REQUEST FOR NO PARKING ON THE EAST SIDE OF CENTRAL STREET FROM 160 FEET NORTH OF NEW YORK AVENUE TO TENNESSEE AVENUE BETWEEN 7:00 A.M. AND 4:00 P.M. ON SCHOOL DAYS. (CURRENT CONDITION: UNRESTRICTED PARKING.) This is a school district request. In order to help improve passenger loading and unloading at the school,this request (combined with some earlier requests) would effectively relocate much of the loading zone activity from the east side of Central Street to the west side. This would reduce the need of pedestrians to cross Central Street when dropped off at or picked up from school. This request is limited to school hours in order to minimize its potential impact on adjacent property owners. However, this would be a reduction in on-street parking availability compared to what is currently available. Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Strong noted the Board may want to amend the request to read"NO PARKING, STOPPING, STANDING, WAITING"to make the restriction similar to what has been in place on the west side of this section of Central Street. The Board moved to amend the request to read "NO PARKING, STOPPING, STANDING, WAITING...'. PASSED (5-0). PASSED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (5-0). A REQUEST FOR PERMIT PARKING ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF HIGH AVENUE FROM 1,040 FEET WEST OF OSCEOLA STREET TO 330 FEET EAST OF OSCEOLA STREET. (CURRENT CONDITION: NO PARKING.) This is a Transportation Department request. The University has requested that parking be allowed on portions of High Avenue primarily to provide additional short-term capacity while on-campus parking is being improved. Reconstruction of the off-street parking lot across the street from Reeve Memorial Union is Page 4 of 5 Explanation of Traffic Ordinance Changes reducing the number of spaces. This capacity reduction will be recovered through expansion of another off-street parking area south of Kolf Sports Center. The University is interested in accommodating the parking needs of its employees in the interim. The parking request is consistent with addressing some safety concerns related to bicycle traffic on High Avenue. A rehabilitation project on High Avenue last year provided the opportunity to create a bicycle lane from Congress Avenue to Jackson Street. To minimize weaving,the placement of driving and bicycle lanes was kept consistent through the length of the project, whether or not parking was permitted. Where parking has been permitted,the bicycle lane is bordered by solid white lines which separate the bicycle lane from the parking lane and moving traffic. In this case, the bicycle lane is typically 5' wide and the parking lane is 8-9' wide. Where parking has not been permitted,there is only a single white line that separates bicycles from moving traffic. Keeping the same dimensions, the bicycle lane appears to be effectively 13-14'. In these cases, cars have been observed to treat the bicycle lane as a driving lane, which creates a safety hazard for bicyclists and confusion for other drivers. Allowing parking will create additional striping which can discourage this vehicular traffic, as will the presence of parked vehicles. There have been cases in other communities where bicyclists collide with the opening doors of parked cars. In order to minimize this, it is helpful if the amount of vehicle turnover is minimized through encouraging longer-term parking. The permit parking designation would be consistent with that. The City issues parking permits for permit spaces downtown. The permit acts as a "fishing license": It allows a vehicle to park in a variety of spaces, but it does not guarantee a space will be available. Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Becker noted there was not a sunset clause. He would like to see a re-evaluation date or a sunset clause added. Mr. Joe Blohm, Director of UW-O Parking Services, noted this request is to help with the shortage of parking during reconstruction; however, there will be a shortage of parking even after the completion of the parking lot. Mr. Hall felt there will always be a lack of parking at UW-O. If there is problem, it can always come back before the Board. Mr. Kaprelian questioned how the citizens will know that the permits have to be obtained through the City. Mr. Strong said he would be working the university on getting the word out. PASSED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (5-0). Page 5 of 5 Explanation of Traffic Ordinance Changes SECTIONS 2 through 7 These changes are being made as a result of re-organizing the code pertaining to loading zones, permit parking on streets, and pay and display. L Ol-KOfH ON THE WATER MEMORANDUM TO: Mark A. Rohloff, City Manager FROM Christopher Strong, Transportation Director cte DATE: July 18, 2012 RE: Items Defeated by the Traffic Review Board at their July 10, 2012 Meeting A REQUEST FOR YIELD SIGNS ON CRANE STREET AT ITS INTERSECTION WITH COLUMBIA AVENUE. (CURRENT CONDITION: COLUMBIA AVENUE YIELDS TO CRANE STREET.) This is a citizen request. The citizen making the request indicates that traffic on Crane Street goes excessively fast between Murdock Avenue and Teichmiller Park. Currently, Crane Street traffic must stop at both Linwood Avenue and Murdock Avenue; this is the only intersection between those two streets. In general, the street with lower traffic volumes should yield to the street with higher traffic volumes. In this case, traffic counts conducted in June 2011 indicated 410 vehicles per weekday entered the intersection, of which 70 percent approach the intersection from Crane Street. This is consistent with the current signage. A review of speed data did not indicate any unusual patterns in vehicle speeds. According to data collected in June 2011, the mean speed for northbound and southbound traffic is 25 and 26 mph, respectively, with 85th percentile speeds approximately 5 mph higher. These speeds are consistent with what would be expected on a residential street. Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Becker felt this request would have very little impact on the traffic flow. DEFEATED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (0-5) A REQUEST FOR TWO-HOUR PARKING ON THE WEST SIDE OF CENTRAL STREET FROM 60 FEET SOUTH OF TENNESSEE AVENUE TO 50 FEET NORTH OF TENNESSEE AVENUE BETWEEN THE HOURS OF 7:00 A.M. AND 4:00 P.M. ON SCHOOL DAYS. (CURRENT CONDITION: NO PARKING, STOPPING, STANDING, WAITING.) ITEMS DEFEATED 2 MAY 2012 This is a school district request. City staff met with representatives from Merrill Middle School and the Oshkosh Area School District to discuss concerns related to student pick-up and drop-off at the school. The school is at the northwest corner of New York Avenue and Central Street. Parking is prohibited on New York Avenue, so most pick-up and drop-off activity occurs on Central Street. These requests, along with the following one, are intended to collectively improve how the pick-up/drop-off area functions. Parking has been prohibited on the west side of this section of street since 1994, when bus loading occurred on this side of the street. Now, bus loading occurs on the north side of the school (off-street). Apart from the small off-street parking area, much of the area on the west side of the street could be set aside for a loading zone. This would allow students to enter or leave vehicles without having to cross Central Street. One concern with this request is that Central Street is a narrow street(28' paved width) without a well-defined curb. However, parking may be permitted on both sides of the street, according to the City's guidelines for on-street parking restrictions on local streets (see Table 1). Since Central Street is a one-way street, and the highest traffic volumes of the day are likely associated with student pick-up and drop-off, allowing parking on the west side of the street should not introduce new congestion or safety hazards. Table 1: Parking Restriction Guidelines on Local Streets Street Width Parking Restrictions Less than 17 feet Both Sides (All cases) 17 to 24 feet One Side (All cases) 25 to 33 feet Valid Petition 34 feet and over None Excerpt from Board Meeting Minutes: Mr. Hall pointed out that this is a narrow street, and motorists have difficulty making this turn. He would not support this request. Mr. Kaprelian agreed with Mr. Hall. The geometry doesn't work here. DEFEATED BY TRAFFIC REVIEW BOARD (0-5)
