FROM Peter M. Chalpin, Acting Chairman SUBJECT Traffic
Traffic Safety Committee C Mr. Bruce Adams
At its meeting of 10/17/79, the Traffic Safety Committee discussed
the request from Mr. Bruce Adams for the conversion of the existing Stop
sign at Preston Road and Simonds Road to a Yield sign.
It is the Committee's feeling that this location does not meet the
warrants for a "Yield" sign, specifically, the safe approach speed does
not exceed 10 mph. This feeling is borne out when the criteria under
which the existing "Stop" sign was installed are reviewed. These criteria
stated that a "Stop" sign is warranted when the safe approach speed is
less than 10 mph. That condition, we feel, remains unchanged, and, we
therefore recommend that Mr. Adams' request be denied.
