Committee backs striping and considers guardrails after multiple crash reports
Sep 15, 2025
Advisory committee members supported striping narrow segments of the Tomlin/Johnlin–Port Royal corridor (staff estimate $27,000 for full corridor, $7,000 for just Tomlin/Johnlin) and reviewed three guardrail requests — at Phoenix Metals, at Brandon Woods bridge approaches, and on Denning Lane — with staff saying funds are available and installations will meet signage requirements.

Speaker 2 presented a months‑old resident request to add striping through the Tomlin/Johnlin corridor between Port Royal Road and Timberline Drive. Staff said lane widths vary (about 10–14 feet in places) and recommended installing a double yellow centerline only; adding edge white lines would reduce usable lane width. “Roughly is 27,000,” Speaker 2 said when asked for a cost estimate for the full striping project, and added a $7,000 quote specifically for Tomlin and Johnlin.
