Item Summary:
This ordinance will create All-Way stop control conditions for all of the intersections previously reconstructed by the
first phases of the Southwest Downtown Streetscapes projects. Please see the attached sketch for specific ¢`
intersections.
Most of the intersections throughout this area were opened to operate as side-street stop controlled intersections
as according to the construction plans. This has caused driver confusion and City staff has even observed many
t
drivers stopping when no stop sign is displayed for their approach. Due to this and the increasing volume of
pedestrian traffic, City transportation staff has determined that All-Way Stop controls are warranted at these
intersections for the appropriate guidance for drivers. r
