Joel Hanson <br />City Administrator <br />City of Little Canada <br />515 Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, MN 55119 -1600 <br />Joel; <br />In response to a request for two stop signs on Little Canada Road, 1 am very familiar <br />with the area. I have spent numerous hours surveying traffic. The speed limit is <br />posted at 30 miles per hour. I have written many citations for speeds In excess of 45 <br />miles per hour. I too believe that with the daycare and the school in this area there is <br />a concern for safety. I would estimate the average speed would be in the area of 37 <br />to 40 miles per hour. A stop sign on Little Canada Rd. would be beneficial to not only <br />the safety of the school and daycare, but also to vehiole$ entering from Mn.Manemy. <br />The cross walk could go hand In hand with the usage of the stop signs. <br />The amount of traffic using Little Canada Rd. is quite high compared to that of <br />MoMenemy. It may cause delays for citizens especially during high use times, but it is <br />difficult to say how backed traffic would be if stop signs were used. <br />I also was advised by other residents in this aria Ow the stop signs would be good. <br />One often uugyuutud u slower speed limit implemented for the school zone. It may <br />be a temporary solution, which could give you some time to do more research as to <br />the effect of traffic. Because the sohool 'snit on Little Canada Rd. I don't know if that's <br />possible. <br />From my experience I don't think that putting the signs in will lower the speeds <br />traveled in areas adjacent to them. It would force vehicles to slow in an area with <br />numerous concerns. The daycare, school, and church. Also with the curves and <br />slight change in grade it does create some doubt when traveling in the area. <br />Page 1 <br />3'd ()Sal WdS0:2T SS, T2 AON <br />
