Westworth Village Sight Visibility Study By Kevin C. Reaves Chief of Police May 2019
Historical Review - Alleyway Traffic Flow Option 3 – Current Pattern Option 1 Option 2
Sight Visibility Triangle Based upon the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials Standards (AASHTO) for a 30 MPH roadway, an approaching driver needs to have a minimum of sight visibility of 200 ft to the left and 140ft to the right to ensure adequate sight distance. This distance is based upon the speed of the roadway, reaction time and stopping distance.

Sight Visibility Triangle Measurement
Alleyway #5 Approach
Alleyway #5
Alleyway #5 Looking to the Left Looking to the Right
Alleyway #3- Partial Vision Obstruction
Alleyway #3 Looking to the Left Looking to the Right
Alleyway #6 – Partial Vision Obstruction
Alleyway #7- Partial Obstruction Looking to the Right
Alleyway #8 – Proper Corner Cut Example
Option #1 Install adequate signage such as stop signs at the exit of each alley, stop bar on the alley surface and honk horn sign. • Pros- • Additional signage improves driver and pedestrian awareness. • Cons- • Does not address sight visibility issues for drivers. • Still have to pull out onto the sidewalk to check for vehicles before turning.
Option #2 Require non-conforming fences and walls into be brought into compliance to provide adequate sight distance as required by City Ordinance. Mandate corner clips on the fences and walls to meet the city ordinance. • Pros- • Non-conforming fences and walls are modified to improve sight distance to improve the safety for pedestrians and motorist near the alley intersections. • Cons- • Several non-conforming fences and walls have trees and structures within the sight setback. • Cost of modifying non-conforming fences and purchasing of easement if necessary.
Option #3 Change the direction of the one-way alleys to exit out on Seymore Lane. • Pros- • Eliminates options #1 and #2’s costs as well as the impact upon current residents of the non-conforming properties. • Provides adequate sight visibility with existing sight viability setbacks at Seymore Lane. • Seymore Lane has a reduced speed and less pedestrian and vehicular travel. • Eliminates pedestrian and motorist conflicts on Tanny St. • Cons- • Costs associated with changing signs around. • Drivers will have to turn left when exiting the alleys onto Seymore Lane and have the option to turn onto the intersecting street to access Tanny St or proceed to Coleman St.
Option #4 Change the direction of the alleys to the alternating pattern. The pattern should be based upon the current sight visibility restrictions on Tanny St. • Pros- • Allows some alleyways direct access to Tanny St. instead of circling the block to access Tanny St. Reduces pedestrian and motorist conflicts on Tanny St. • Cons- • No uniformity on traffic flow or circulation
Option #5 Do nothing at all. Wait until redevelopment resolves the sight visibility issues with non-conforming fences in the 5800 block. • Pros- • No expense to citizens or residents. • Cons- • Problems will continue exist until there is redevelopment with the residences at 5800 and 5801 of each perspective street. • The safety hazards to pedestrians and motorist will remain present.
