Ms. Connie Vickers, resident of 1026 D Avenue, requested measures to prohibit
large semi -tractor trailers from using Kimball Way to access Walmart, due to the
proximity to the senior center and large number of seniors who walk in the area.
Staff performed a site evaluation and determined that installation of vehicle
weight restriction signs on Kimball Way are appropriate due to the large number
of seniors walking in the area. Also, alternative driveway access to Walmart is
provided on both Plaza Boulevard and Highland Avenue, which are designated
truck routes.
Staff recommends installation of "Commercial Vehicles Over 3 Tons Prohibited"
signs at the following locations to enhance safety for pedestrians on Kimball
Way:
1. Kimball Way, east of D Avenue (eastbound traffic)
2. E. 14th Street, west of Highland Avenue (westbound traffic)
3. Walmart driveway on Kimball Way (exiting traffic)
All work will be completed by City Public Works.
