Request #DPW000109250 -- the work order #127916 for a sign was not available so could not see what happened as a result? Was this support to help this intersection? Thank you!

- Staff · July 10, 2024I asked another engineer to field check 25mph signs along 29th St. More information on the all-way stop study: The Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) conditions are mainly about a combination of traffic on the free flow street and the stopped street. This is basically how the MUTCD warrant works: - The traffic volumes along the free flow street (major street) and the stopped street (minor street) must be at a certain level for each hour for eight hours of a weekday to meet the requirements of the MUTCD all-way stop warrants. o Major street minimum requirement (total of both approaches) = 300 or more vehicles an hour. o Minor street minimum requirement (total of both approaches) = 200 or more vehicles an hour. - Both traffic conditions must be met for the major and minor streets to meet the MUTCD requirement. This means at a minimum one street must have at least 2400 vehicles per day and the other street must have at least 1600 vehicles a day. For the intersection of 29th St and R St: 29th St has 669 vehicles a day which is much less than the MUTCD requirement.
