Project Goals

Safety Improvements

– Reduce crashes – The intersection has a history of vehicles hitting fixed objects.

Drainage Improvements

– Update inlets and pipes to current standards.

Arterial Efficiency and Operations

– Signalized intersections within the city are not currently interconnected. – Improve traffic flow in the system.

Lighting/Signal Pole Options

Standard Poles (Galvanized)

– No additional cost to City

Standard Poles Painted Black

– No additional cost to City

Decorative Poles Painted Black

– City responsible for: $12,000 to $16,000/signal pole $2,000 to $4,000/light pole (generally half the cost)

SLIDE 26

Project Goals Satisfied?

Safety Improvements

– Statistically, roundabouts are safer than traditional signalized intersections. – Both alternatives will improve the geometry of the intersection and accommodate large vehicles.

Drainage Improvements

– The existing drainage network will be improved with either alternative; however, the roundabout would require a more complex drainage system.

Arterial Efficiency and Operations

– Both alternatives would improve the efficiency and operation of the arterial network.

What’s Next?

PennDOT and the City of Warren are evaluating the two

alternatives for the intersection of (SR 6006) Pennsylvania Avenue, (SR 1017) Market Street, and Water Street.

– Signal Replacement and Retiming with Geometric Improvements – Single Lane Roundabout

PennDOT and City officials will take public feedback into

consideration.

– Let us know your thoughts and concerns.
