Nisich��"" CONSENT CALENDAR DATE: April 19, 1994 SUBJECT: INSTALLATION OF STOP CONTROL AT; ALTAMONTE AVENUE AND NASHUA WAY ALTAMONTE AVENUE AND OLIVAS PARK ROAD ALTAMONTE AVENUE AND PARADA DRIVE ALTAMONTE AVENUE AND QUILLA DRIVE ALTAMONTE AVENUE AND RANA DRIVE Resolution No. 94.44 DEPARTMENT: Community Development BACKGROUND The Traffic Engineering staff has conducted a traffic study at the above referenced intersections for possible installation of stop controls (see Exhibit "A", Vicinity Map). Presently, all five subject intersections are uncontrolled four-way intersections. Altamonte Avenue Is an east -west residential collector street. The roadway is 36 feet wide with curb and sidewalk on each side. The roadway has one (1) travel lane In each direction, and on -street parking is permitted. The prima facie speed limit is 25 mph. Nashua Way, Oiivas Park Road, Parada Drive, Quilla Drive and Rana Drive are north -south residential cul-de-sac streets. These roadways are 34 feet wide with curb and sidewalk on each side. Each of these roadways intersects with Altamonte Avenue and form a four-way intersection. Installation of four-way and two-way stop control at the intersections were considered in this study. Based on the results of the study, none of these intersections satisfied the standard four-way stop warrants established by the California State Department of Transportation (Caltrans). However, installation of two-way stop controls would be beneficial for the motorists using the subject intersections for the following reasons: Presently the subject four-way intersections are uncontrolled. The proposed stop controls will establish a positive right-of-way control for the motorists entering the subject intersections. The total estimated cost for installation of signs is approximately $1,000. Funds are available in Account No. 02-5402.227 for this purpose.
