Purpose of the Study

  • Due diligence prior to considering future projects
  • Evaluate existing safety
  • Evaluate existing and future traffic operations
  • Evaluate existing road and bridge conditions
  • Identify related planning and economic development initiatives
  • Identify and evaluate options for changes/improvements along corridor
  • Determine short-range and long-range improvement strategies for the

corridor

Public Feedback

Public feedback indicated the five (5) most significant issues people are concerned with along the corridor are:

1) Speeding 2) Sight Distance 3) Drainage 4) Passing Lanes 5) Pedestrian/Bicycle Access

The top five (5) locations commented on along the corridor were:

  • 1. Kidds Mill Road intersection
  • 2. Wasser Bridge Road intersection
  • 3. Railroad Crossing (south of Methodist Road)
  • 4. Fredonia Road Intersection
  • 5. Columbia Avenue/Hamburg Road intersection

Corridor-Wide (Operational)

SPEED

  • Consistent Enforcement
  • Improve Signing – Gateway Signing
  • Change Driver Attitude with low cost strategies to call attention driver speed

Speed Feedback Signs Changeable Message Boards Partner w/Local Agencies – Media Blitz, Billboards Outreach/Education Coordinate with NHTSA safety campaigns i.e. National Teen Safety Week October 20-26,2019
