NATIONAL CiT' TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMITTEE AGENDA REPORT FOR MARCH 12, 2014 ITGIIA TITLE: ITEM NO. 2014-051 REQUEST TO REDUCE SPEEDING AND STOP SIGN VIOLATIONS ON MANCHESTER STREET BETWEEN PLAZA ROULEVARD AHD ETHEL PLACE {BY NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTS) PREPARED BY: Stephen Manganiello, City Engineer DISCUSSION: In 2013, residents contacted staff with concerns regarding speeding on Manchester Street and Stop sign violations at the following intersections: Manchester Street & Eleanor Place and Manchester Street & Ethel Place. These two intersections are "T" intersections with Manchester Street as the primary roadway with a posted speed limit of 25 mph. Both intersections are Stop controlled for the side streets and westbound Manchester Street only. Eastbound Manchester Street (traveling uphill) is uncontrolled. Both intersections are located in proximity to horizontal and vertical curves. On December 11, 2013, after completing various site evaluations, staff recommended the following to the Traffic Safety Committee: 1) installation of All -Way Stop Control at the intersections of Manchester Street & Eleanor Place and Manchester Street & Ethel Place, 2) installation of Stop Ahead warning signs and pavement markings in advance of the intersections for eastbound and westbound approaches, and 3) installation of 25 feet red curb "No Parking" as required in advance of the new Stop signs (TSC *2013-26). Over twenty area residents attended the Traffic Satety Committee meeting. The overwhelming majority was opposed to installation of All Way Stop Control. Residents inquired about the possibility of installing speed humps. Staff expressed concerns about installing speed humps an hills and the impact to emergency vehicles Rased on responses from residents in 2ttendance, the Committee directed staff to collect additional data and conduct surveys regarding speeds and Stop sign violations, and the:: return to the Committee with a summary report and recommendations. Staff coordinated data collection and analysis efforts in ,January and February 2014. Traffic data collected by National Data & Surveying Services (NDS) on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 and Thursday, January 23. 2014 indicates an average of 1,200 vehicles per day use Manchester Street with an 85th percentile speed of 32 mph (speed at or below which 85% of vehicles surveyed were traveling). On January 15, 2014, NDS collected data on Stop sign compliance for the westbound approaches to the intersections of Manchester Street & Eleanor Place and Manchester Street & Ethel Place. Approximately 84% of drivers surveyed by NDS failed to come to a complete Stop at the intersection of Manchester Street & Eleanor Place (57% slowedlrolhed through, 27% drove through), while approximately 87% failed to come to a complete Stop at the intersection of Manchester Street & Ethel Place (70% slowed/rolled through, 77% drove through) STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on the results of the traffic safety evaluation for Manchester Street between Plaza Boulevard and Ethel Place, staff recommends the following enhancements to reduce soeedina and Stop sign violations: 1) Install red flashing beacons above the Stop signs located on westbound Manchester Street at Eleanor Place and Ethel Place; 2) Install Stop Ahead warning signs with pavement markings in advance of the intersections for westbound traffic; 3) Install a series of raised pavement markers at set intervals across Manchester Street for traffic calming.
