SUBJECT: GRANDIFLORAS ROAD - ESTABLISHING A NO -STOPPING ZONE
DEPARTMENT: Transportation and Engineering Services
City Council adopt a resolution establishing a no -stopping zone along the northwest side of
Grandifloras Road, extending 135 feet west of Abelia Road.
City Traffic staff received a request from a citizen to install a four-way stop sign at the
intersection of Grandifloras Road and Abelia Road. This intersection is currently a two-way
stop, with stop signs on Abelia Road. Traffic staff investigated the possibility of installing a
four-way (multi -way) stop at this intersection; however, the traffic study showed that a
four-way stop installation is not warranted due to a low vehicle volume and low number of
accidents at this location. The evaluation of the existing conditions at this intersection
indicated that there are sight distance and visibility limitations on the northwest side of
Grandifloras Road. The limited sight distance is in part due to the geometric design and
horizontal curvature of the roadway and can be resolved with removal of approximately
135 feet of parking along the northwest side of Grandifloras Road. There will be minimal
impact to area residents, since there is adequate parking along the rest of Grandifloras Road.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
The work involves the installation of three signs, amounting to approximately $300.00.
Funds are available in the Field Services Striping and Signing Maintenance account for this
work.
