TO: Clerk to the Board DATE: February 12, 2015
G O U N T Yl FROM: Janet Lundquist, Public Works
SUBJECT: Installation of Stop Signs on CR 102 & CR 17
Public Works requests approval to install a traffic regulatory sign (Stop sign R1-1) at the intersection of CR 102
with CR 17. East and West bound traffic would be stopped on CR 102 at CR 17.
The traffic count for CR 17 was taken in January 2014 with an MDT of 278. The traffic count for CR 102 was
taken in January 2014 with an AADT of 39, both roadways are local roadways. CR 102 and CR 17 are both
gravel roadways. The Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) section 26.04 suggests that stop
signs should be placed at an intersection of a less important road with a main road where application of the
normal right-of-way rule would not be expected to provide reasonable compliance with the law. Public Works
recommends that traffic be stopped on CR 102 & CR 17 in the East and West bound directions.
