Evaluation <br />• Site visits should be completed to determine <br />if sight distance is issue in regards to Blind <br />Driveway and Trail Crossing sign requests. <br />• Dead End/No Outlet locations can be reviewed <br />on a case by case basis. <br />Things To Be Aware Of <br />• Signs should be installed sparingly and in <br />locations that provide a benefit all day, every <br />day to ensure the correct message is being <br />conveyed. These are typically Blind Driveway, <br />Dead End/No Outlet, and Trail Crossing signs. <br />• Signs that do not give a warning of continued, <br />unexpected occurrences are not encouraged to <br />be implemented. <br />• Typical application of "No Outlet" signs is <br />when you cannot see the end of the street. <br />• "No Outlet" signs can be added as a small sign <br />on top of a street name sign. <br />Alternative Implementation Options <br />• Install temporary yard signs (i.e. drive like your <br />children live here). <br />• Remove plants/trees that obstruct sightlines. <br />Education Tools <br />VIDEOS <br />• Traffic Control: What Works <br />• "Ineffective Specialty Signs" video will <br />be available on the LRRB YouTube page <br />in Spring/Summer 2018 <br />RESOURCES/FOOTNOTES <br />1.
