Vernon Avenue -- Request for Traffic Signal DATE: February 16, 1996 COPIES: File 13 . 1s, Reading File This matter was reviewed by the Traffic Safety Committee several times during the last 2 years. The Committee recommended signing improvements, as well as signalization. Although the Committee recommended that the intersection be signalized, this improvement was not given high priority due to the nature of the accidents and the relatively low traffic volumes. At the time of the recommendation, volume warrants were barely met, and accidents were mainly of the "Ran-off-Road" type. These type of accidents are not considered corectable by a traffic signal. A recent evaluation of the accident history revealed that the intersection still does not meet warrants for a traffic signal based on accident history. Additionally, "Ran-off Road" type accidents have decreased. This is attributed to improvements in signing and striping. The intersection narrowly met traffic signal volume warrants the last time it was reviewed. Although the intersection has not been counted recently, there is no reason to believe that traffic volumes have decreased to the point where the intersection no longer meets volume warrants.
