STOP SIGN AND CROSSWALK ON JACKSON AVENUE AT
WHITMORE STREET
SUMMARY
At the September 25, 2007 City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to prepare a
plan showing the installation of a new stop sign and crosswalk on Jackson Avenue at
Whitmore Street.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the plan for the installation of a stop
sign and crosswalk at Jackson Avenue and Whitmore Street and direct staff to begin the
process for the installation.
ANALYSIS
The Traffic Commission received a petition requesting the installation of a crosswalk on
Jackson Avenue at Whitmore Street. The petition indicated that students from the
Head -Start and State Preschool on the Emerson Elementary School campus cross at
this intersection. In addition, parents drop- off /pick -up their students in the vicinity of
Jackson Avenue and Whitmore Street. The petition also indicated that vehicles
traveling on Jackson Avenue do not stop for pedestrians accessing the school. At the
July 5, 2007 Traffic Commission meeting, the Commission approved the installation of a
crosswalk and appropriate signage and to further study the intersection when school is
back in session. At the September 25, 2007 City Council meeting, the Council
concurred there was a need for additional traffic control at the intersection and approved
the installation of both a stop sign and crosswalk on Jackson Avenue at Whitmore
Street.
Please see Attachment "A" for a plan showing the complete installation of the stop sign
and crosswalk.
