Public Feedback
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
Roadway Design Criteria
Preliminary Results
Corridor-Wide
- Operational Characteristics
- Short-term Improvements (3 years or less)
- Long-term Improvements (greater than 3 years)
- PA 58 and SR 4011(Columbia Ave.) & T470 (Hamburg Rd.)
- PA 58 and SR 4027 (Fredonia Rd.)
- PA 58 Kidds Mill Curve
- PA 58 and SR 4014 (Oniontown Rd.)
- PA 58 and T-919 (Coolspring Street)
Location-Specific
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
Corridor-Wide (Operational)
INTERSECTION SIGHT DISTANCE
SR 4011 (Columbia Road) /T470 (Hamburg Road) SR 4003 (Wasser Bridge Road) SR 4012 (Kidds Mill Road) SR 3022 (Line Road)/T595 (Line Road) ▪Improve existing signing ▪ Add additional signing ▪ Improve delineation▪ trim foliage/trees
Corridor-Wide (Operational)
PASSING ZONES
Kidds Mill Road SR 58 at Kidds Mill Road SR 58 at Fulling Mill Road Curve Limits Examine Start/Stop limits in relation to location of intersections and curve limits.
Corridor-Wide (Short-term)
- Maintain Center Line & Edge Line Pavement Markings
- Improve Delineation
– Access Points – Add Raised Pavement Markings
- Tree Trimming within Right-of-Way
- Signing Improvements
Corridor-Wide (Short-term)
Canadian National Railroad Crossing
- Minor Widening
- Drainage Improvements
- Pavement Resurfacing (Mill/Overlay)
Corridor-Wide (Long-term)
PA 58 and SR 4011 (Columbia Ave. & T470 Hamburg Rd)
- Install an Intersection Control Beacon
- Construct Curb for Access Control
PA 58 and SR 4011 (Columbia Ave. & T470 Hamburg Rd)
Intersection Control Beacon Samples
PA 58 and SR 4027 (Fredonia Road)
PA 58 and SR 4027 (Fredonia Road)
- Reconstruct SR 4027
- Improve Drainage
- Improve Shoulders along SR 58
PA 58/Kidds Mill Road Curve
PA 58/Kidds Mill Road Curve
- Reconstruct Curve to Increase Radius
and open up line of sight to Kidds Mill Road
PA 58 and SR 4014 (Oniontown Road)
- Install drainage swale along SR 58
PA 58 and T-919 (Coolspring Street)
PA 58 and T-919 (Coolspring Street)
