- Staff · November 27, 2024DPW must perform engineering studies in accordance with the Federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) before installing an all-way stop. All all-way stops must meet the warrants in the MUTCD. The intersection of Bainbridge St and 14th St does not meet the traffic requirements for an all-way stop. The last four full years of reported crashes from DMV (1.1.20 – 12.31.23) on Bainbridge St at W. 14th St showed one reported crash. The Fire Marshall does not support any additional speed tables on Bainbridge St since this corridor functions as a strategic route for emergency vehicles. No parking zones are on both sides of Bainbridge St at 14th St eastbound (i.e., a No Parking sign on the north side and a fire hydrant (no parking by law) on the south side). These measures enhance the intersection sight distance. No changes in traffic controls are planned at this time.
