Subject:Jerome Street at Indian Road - Installation of a "Stop" sign (Davenport)

Purpose:

To install a "Stop" sign for westbound traffic on Jerome Street at its intersection with Indian Road.

Funding Sources, Financial Implications and Impact Statement:

Funds to undertake the necessary pole and sign installation in the estimated amount of $200.00 are available in the Transportation Services Division 1999 Budget.

Recommendations:

1. That a "Stop" sign be installed for westbound traffic on Jerome Street at Indian Road; and

2. That the appropriate City Officials be requested to take whatever action is necessary to give effect to the foregoing, including the introduction in Council of any Bills that may be required.

Comments:

At the request of Davenport Councillor Betty Disero, Works and Emergency Services staff have investigated installing a "Stop" sign for westbound traffic on Jerome Street at its intersection with Indian Road.

Jerome Street meets Indian Road to form a "T"- type intersection with Indian Road being the through street. There is currently no "Stop" sign control at this intersection.

As a means of establishing right-of-way at this intersection, it is recommended that a "Stop" sign be posted for westbound traffic on Jerome Street.
