-. DATE: - September 8, 1988
TO: Weld County Road Department (Through Channels)
FROM: Trooper R. Hawley
SUBJECT: Traffic Control CR-59 and CR-10
.On September 3, 1988 I responded to an injury accident at the intersection
pf Weld County Road 59 and Weld County Road 10. The Keenesburg Fire Depart-
ment was on scene when I arrived. I was met by the Keenesburg Fire Chief,
- Mark Gray, &- asked why there had not been any stop signs placed at this in-
tersection. He referred to a Fatal accident that occurred almost 2 years
ago and the fact that there had been accidents at this location since.
While I investigated the accident several other people that were passing
through the accident scene stopped and also asked why there hadn't been any
stop signs placed there.
On September 6, 1988 Trooper Edens and I returned to the scene for the pur-
pose of doing some follow-up investigation. During the time we were there,
approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, there were. several vehicles passing
through the intersection, most slowed down because of the patrol cars being
parked at the intersection, but a few continued on through at approximately
50 mph. The majority of the traffic was on WCR 59 and a few on WCR 10.
At this intersection, on the northwest corner, is a field of corn. This cau-
ses a definite view obstruction to southbound traffic on WCR 59 and eastbound
traffic on WCR 10. Trooper Edens and I drove the 2 roads to check when we
could see each other. We could not see each other through the corn at 35 mph.
At 10 mph we could see each other 240 feet from the intersection. The only
vehicle we observed going that slow through the intersection was a farm tra-
ctor.
It is ours recommendation that stop signs be placed at this intersection.
