I1O: Keith Meyers, P.E., Engineering Manager DATE: 2/23/2004
CFROM Wayne Howard, P.E., Project Manager 4
COLORADO SUBJECT: WCR 16 and WCR 17, Signing
I was notified by a Public Works employee that there is a hazardous intersection at WCR 16 and
WCR 17. I made a sight visit on 2/20/04 to investigate the problem.
WCR 16 and WCR 17 both gravel roadways and the intersection is currently uncontrolled. Recent
traffic counts were taken in November of 2003. The counts on WCR 16 were 169 ADT west and
221 ADT east of WCR 17. The counts on WCR 17 were 187 ADT north and 112 ADT south of
WCR 16. As shown in the attached photo's,a house has been built recently in the SW corner which,
between the high grass and the house and buildings, does create an unsafe sight distance as you
approach the intersection. The NE corner also has high vegetation that causes sight distance
problems.
I looked into the recent traffic accidents and found that one accident occurred at the intersection in
2002. (See attached) The sight distance problem on the NE corner could have contributed to the
accident.
Based upon the above information,I would recommend that we install a two way stop condition on
WCR 17 at WCR 16. I am recommending stopping WCR 17 traffic because the traffic volumes
were slightly lower.
