Name: Eli Road at Desoto Street Intersection and Pedestrian Crossing Review <br />Date: April 22, 2021 <br />Page: 9 <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation <br />The existing traffic control at the intersection of Eli Rd and Desoto St is not compliant with MnMUTCD <br />standards and the traffic control should be revised. Option 1 (all-way stop) is the recommended traffic <br />control at the intersection. An all-way stop at this location would eliminate driver confusion with regards <br />to which approach has the right of way, improve the safety of the pedestrian crossing on the west leg, and <br />the application of an all-way stop at this location is consistent MnMUTCD guidance. An all-way stop <br />could lead to potential for drivers rolling through stop signs, however, this may be somewhat mitigated by <br />intersection geometry at this location. Finally, this option requires that the existing RRFB system be <br />removed as the eastbound approach is stop controlled. <br />
