alit tho <br /> a e <br /> ATE : A P P ROV <br /> September 1 , 1988 <br /> Mayor and Councilmembers <br /> FROM <br /> Larry Hamer Public Works Director <br /> T, : PETITION FOR 3 WAY STOP AT COOLI.DGE STREET/34TH AVENUE N.E. <br /> A traffic flow study for the above petition indicated the following: <br /> 1 . Traffic counts are typical of a residential road, i .e. , the road is not <br /> used heavily as a short-cut, etc. The traffic count indicated traffic- on <br /> 34th from Stinson Boulevard to Coolidge was higher than that from Silver Lake <br /> Road to Coolidge, therefore, the stop sign at Edward/34th Avenue N.E. does <br /> not deter traffic flow. <br /> 2. Radar did not indicate any speeding problems. Most cars travelled the <br /> speed limit or below, with only one exception (38 mph) . <br /> 3 . Almost all of the traffic appeared to be local , which would indicate a <br /> 3 way stop would not, in all probability, be a deterrent to the amount of <br /> use that roadway gets. <br /> The attached petition is very complete. The great majority of residents <br /> ere in favor of the request, while only three residents opposed it. <br /> :cjk9.13 .88 <br />
