DATE: October 4 , 1989
TO: Sgt . LeVere - Forward to George Kennedy ,Weld County Commissioner
FROM: Trooper Edens
SUBJECT: Request for "School Bus Stops Ahead " signing on WCR 47
between WCR 2 and Colorado 52 .
On October 4, 1989 I investigated a traffic complaint near
Hudson, Co. . The complainant ,Sharon Koger , of 1973 WCR 47 , advised
me of heavy truck traffic on WCR 47 and that her phsically handicapped
children ages 5 and 7 years , board two separate school buses daily.
Some of the truck traffic does not realize the school buses also are
in the area .
I monitored the area and contacted one bus driver at the pickup
point and determined that "Warning Signs" would make the area safer .
Weld County Road 47 and 45 from Colorado 52 south, in the near
future will handle more traffic due to the developmemt of the Denver
Airport .
