Clark Rather said neighbors reported higher volumes since Garth Brooks work began, and commissioners asked whether the contractor would pause work for the city's December holiday event.

A staff member (identified in the transcript as Doug) said the last plan he had was to pause construction after finishing the southbound work, reopen traffic before the city’s December event, and then resume work afterward; he said the plan had shifted at times and he would confirm. He also said contractors had proposed night work to speed completion, but staff had not confirmed that option. No formal action was taken; commissioners asked staff to follow up with the contractor and report back.

Why it matters: Commissioners said rerouted and seasonal event traffic may create sustained congestion on neighborhood streets that typically host community displays, and they want confirmation of construction phasing so holiday traffic can be managed.

Next steps: Staff to confirm the contractor's schedule and whether a holiday pause or night work will be used, and report back to the commission. No vote or funding decision was recorded.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Yukon Oklahoma - Traffic Commission 09-16-2025","oneSentenceSummary","A commissioner reported higher traffic on Cornwall/Tenth caused by construction detours on Garth Brooks; staff said the contractor planned a pause around the December holiday event and may work nights to accelerate the project, but details were not final.","taxTitle","Yukon, Canadian County, Oklahoma","taxId",68863,"location","Oklahoma","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},5977869,"Traffic commission approves 'children at play' signs on Mabel Frye, recommends periodic police patrols",325,596000,921000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5793300-e9992e5cfd86e0a75d3da3171ed28b00&start=596&end=921","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5793300-e9992e5cfd86e0a75d3da3171ed28b00/thumbnail_596000.jpg","/articles/5977869/Oklahoma/Traffic-commission-approves-children-at-play-signs-on-Mabel-Frye-recommends-periodic-police-patrols","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5977869-38d630e49f225c8d619801578ada07da/orig.mp4?Expires=1771147715&Signature=UKPQdmy39fY88htlpxyA3sc~ont9pcx2pEHglbIL9ogUxHqHXw0EZpkti4o-VXfiBw5A6VHjXDMSv8EhNwf0Co2QSFMp6Hp7UtUvtNC5Ddym1QxhmYEf7XQcrqHWOEZkwo9RqORHJFTpnjH3Ha0wuihJbfk-7GGFLGrnSHcoRWwofuFYODrDb6qd1gNNpmPdn-mNycfijGrivAlFTygGWQ4-zfXCTdvJgArNRTRgpPeh4143Eyr7zVCzWtuyz2nnLIAt1SXIRq~zHFjXwaV3Fea4xUTx74~mrdfIGlPvY86fEvKwkLhWu0-X8KEXHZ-vaGvkEXrt4adBuHpnsoNq5Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Yukon Traffic Commission voted to install warning signs reading that “kids are at play” on Mabel Frye and recommended periodic patrols by the Yukon Police Department instead of adding additional speed humps.

Commission discussion centered on existing traffic‑calming features and sightlines. A commissioner explained the current layout: two existing speed humps are about 600 feet apart; the distance from Arlington to the first speed hump is roughly 490 feet, and from Yukon Parkway to another speed hump is about 755 feet. The commissioner said curves and driveway access create conditions where drivers can gain speed and where children sometimes play near driveways.

The chair recommended signage plus police patrols: “I would recommend that, we, ask Yukon Police Department to just have a patrol in there every once in a while just to make sure nobody's going faster than 25 through there,” and moved to install the signs. Another commissioner noted the city generally declines to install additional speed humps because of ongoing maintenance obligations.

Motion and vote: The motion to install “kids at play” warning signs and request police patrols passed by roll call. The recorded roll call showed James Montgomery, Tim Peters, Joey Scannelli and Clark Rather voting yes; one member's vote was not captured in the transcript. The commission did not adopt new speed humps or allocate funding during the meeting.

Why it matters: Commissioners cited child safety and the existing configuration of speed humps and curves that may encourage speeding between devices. The approved signs and patrols are meant to provide an immediate, low‑maintenance response.

Implementation details: The chair said he would look up the specific sign design and provide a picture to staff. No funding source or installation timeline was specified in the transcript.","The Yukon Traffic Commission approved installation of 'kids at play' warning signs on Mabel Frye and recommended Yukon Police patrol the area rather than add more speed humps, citing existing spacing and maintenance concerns.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":80,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},5977874,"Yukon traffic panel OKs warning signs at North Frisco near Wilshire after visibility concerns",406,190000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5793300-e9992e5cfd86e0a75d3da3171ed28b00&start=190&end=596","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5793300-e9992e5cfd86e0a75d3da3171ed28b00/thumbnail_190000.jpg","/articles/5977874/Oklahoma/Yukon-traffic-panel-OKs-warning-signs-at-North-Frisco-near-Wilshire-after-visibility-concerns","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5977874-3361c1d187f1d9d2391f4863e43c2420/orig.mp4?Expires=1771147715&Signature=Rg0L28WAs-nFtey~T3IXQFOJ9qTiDCneNVLvWvbSLNfhP3xQuUYg1cNDObXhLcXOZT0s-529LueSFnxH5k-VhGRUPjMmontJ3Q6t-7Vw8yFNq4lEh1wEasuOXCxzA1niZtADfQdut6liRq23bBhLdtjgVN88iUjPvLHyn~2vxxIHiU5do9rnvQ0Yf6uNLdU08ntL~SXKSIVl2bwMGpdCXEWzA6yamFeYas1bR-7f8KoYO7w8ECZeHt9D7dFI1HwiQjLtSyeGv8FW4kqro9IPtTVxKRHLCnPhWRDttnrKYmx3R6wtb-18b-K-mD-8sP0sVDVfXgG303-g3AmT6h777Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Yukon Traffic Commission voted unanimously to install two T‑intersection warning signs on North Frisco Road at Wilshire to warn drivers approaching the intersection from both directions. The commission approved the signs after a resident described a hill and valley that limit sight lines for drivers and said an estimated housing development of about 100 homes is planned nearby.

The action came after a resident described the site layout: “they don't see a car sitting at the intersection until they're right on top of them,” and explained that Frisco Road sits in a small valley with a hill to the west that blocks drivers' views. The resident said speed is a factor, noting the posted 45 mph limit and that drivers often travel “50, 55.” The resident also estimated the hill measures about 550 feet and that sight distance to the east is “probably got about 2 to 300 feet.”

Commission discussion clarified jurisdictional lines. A commission member noted that the south side of Wilshire is within Yukon while the north side is in Oklahoma City, and that the area of concern is on Yukon’s south side; the commission therefore proceeded with Yukon signage. The chair said staff could “put a warning sign up there from both directions” and place the signs at appropriate distances so drivers know an intersection is ahead.

Motion and vote: The chair moved to install two T‑intersection warning signs; a second followed and a roll call vote approved the motion. The roll call recorded James Montgomery, Tim Peters, Joey Scannelli and Clark Rather voting yes; one member's recorded vote was not captured in the transcript. The commission directed staff to place the signs on Yukon’s side of the intersection.

Why it matters: Commission members and the resident tied the request to current and expected traffic: recent repaving of the road and a nearby residential proposal were cited as increasing vehicle volumes and the risk at the intersection. The signs are a low‑cost, short‑term countermeasure to reduce the immediate sightline hazard while the city monitors traffic changes.

Implementation details and next steps: The commission approved placement of two T‑intersection warning signs, to be located so that drivers from both directions receive advance notice. No ordinance or funding source was specified in the discussion; staff will implement the installation as routine traffic signing work. The transcript did not record an exact installation date.","The Yukon Traffic Commission voted to install two T‑intersection warning signs on North Frisco Road at Wilshire after residents described limited sight lines over a hill and an anticipated housing development that could increase traffic.","actionData","errors"]
