Items for Individual Consideration
1. Discussion regarding the traffic signal warrant process. (HW)
Mr. Webb introduced Kelly Parma, Senior Project Manager with Lee Engineering to
provide the presentation.
Mr. Parma presented an overview of how their firm processes and collects data
during a traffic study. He also reviewed the nine (9) warrants that are evaluated and
what each entail in determining if a traffic signal is recommended or not based on
those criteria. It was noted that a traffic signal is being recommended at Gee and
Acacia Road due to the traffic study recently conducted.
Mr. Webb added that the design process will take approximately three (3) months
and an additional nine (9) to twelve (12) months for procurement and installation.
The Town Council discussed funds for the project, crosswalk flashers, and the
opening of additional lanes, which should help traffic flow until the light is fully
installed.
