DATE: December 20, 1988
SUBJECT: Council Agenda, December 22, 1988
ITEM:
9H. Consider an ordinance amending the Traffic Code
by removing stop signs on Round Rock West Drive
at Bluff and Chisholm Trail. (First Reading)
STAFF RESOURCE PERSON: Joe Vining
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval.
The four way stop was established when SYSCO located their
facility just north of this intersection. SYSCO generates
the following traffic:
1.) 30-45 trucks per day (SYSCO delivery vehicles) enter
and leave the site.
2.) 15-20 trucks per day (suppliers) enter and leave the site.
3.) 200 employees per day enter and leave the site.
This traffic is less than the original projection of 300
truck trips per day.
Staff contacted Mr. Gary Ross, Manager at SYSCO. He indicated
that they did not require a four way stop for their operation
but requested it due to their concern for general safety in
the area.
The warrants for a four way stop require traffic volumes of
500 vehicles per hour (average) over an 8 hour period. Present
volumes are obviously substantially less than this required
volume.
ECONOMIC IMPACT: Cost of removing signs. Signs may be re -used
at other locations.
