SUBJECT: Installation of stop signs at the intersection of
(Weld County Road) WCR 6 and WCR 65
A traffic study has been completed, and it indicated that there are sufficient warrants to place stop
signs at the above-referenced intersection. Per the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices,
Section 2B-5, a stop sign is warranted.
The warrants are:
1. Intersection of a less important road with a main road where application of the normal right-of-
way rule is unduly hazardous.
Sight distance is restricted from two directions.
2. Street entering a through highway or street.
3. Unsignalized intersection in a signalized area.
4. Other intersections where a combination of high speed, restricted view, and serious accident
record indicates a need for control by a stop sign.
The intersection of WCR 6 and WCR 65 meets warrants numbers one and four. (Please see the
attached diagram). Current traffic volumes dictate the need to stop traffic on WCR 6 at WCR 65.
Through traffic will be maintained for WCR 65.
