<br />Project Description:
<br />This project is for installation of new traffic signals and modification of existing signals or installation of roundabouts at various intersections in town. Potential
<br />candidate intersections include: Thurston Rd. & 66th St., S. 42nd St. & Daisy St., S 42nd St. & Jasper Road, 42nd & Marcola Road. The modification of
<br />signals may include change to permissive left turn at some existing signalized intersections.
<br />Justification:
<br />As traffic increases, additional traffic intersections will not operate in an acceptable manner with stop sign control. The intersections will meet roundabout or
<br />signal warrants. New signals or roundabouts will need: to be installed. The modification of existing signals is needed to maintain adequate traffic safety and to
<br />enhance traffic flow.
<br />Relation to Plans:
<br />This project is consistent with the Metro Area Transportation Plan for improving traffic flow, traffic safety, and reducing vehicular accidents.
<br />Maintenance Impacts:
<br />Traffic signals will increase costs for power, lamp replacement, and timing modifications. Roundabouts will increase costs for irrigation and landscape
<br />maintenance. Annual cost for roundabouts is about half the cost of traffic signals, with annual per signal cost being about $6,500 and annual roundabout
<br />maintenance cost being about $3,300.
