DISCUSSION
A. Background
Recently the City Council awarded a contract for the
construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of
Peach Hill Road and Spring Road. Project construction is
scheduled to start as soon as certain road improvement
are constructed by the developer of an adjacent
developer.
B. Design Review
The design for this project was prepared by Willdan
Associates. That design called for the placement of
flashing warning lights approximately six hundred feet
(600' ) north and south of the intersection. The need for
these warning signals was quest.:ioned. The City Engineer
was asked to review the various factors bearing on this
design and provide a recommendation as to the necessity
to construct these items. Upon review of those factors
it is the recommendation of the City Engineer that the
flashing warning signal lights be deleted from the
project design and that they be replaced by signal ahead
warning signs and street markirgs:.
