Signalized Location Treatment Study (Add #1)
The purpose of this project is to
develop a systematic approach to prioritizing the Citys signalized locations for review,
refining the two policies (Exhibits 5 and 6) used in the review and analysis of the subject
locations (Traffic Signal Removal and Traffic Signal Program policies), identification of
additional policies needed, and lastly to review subject signalized locations (Exhibit 7) for the
determination of the appropriate intersection control. While there is a fiscal benefit to
removing traffic signals, particular attention must be paid to all direct and indirect
benefits/costs of said signal. These could include (but are not limited to) effects of travel
delay to all users of the intersection/crossing, changes to existing accident rates and types,
and voluntary re-routing of traffic to utilize another location to access (or cross) the roadway
system
