Town says Speed Creek improvements are planned but intersection fails signal warrant
Summary
A town official identified in the meeting as 'Proble' told the council the Speed Creek Road/Highway 17 intersection does not meet the warrant for a traffic signal, but said other roadway safety improvements are being pursued with asset-sale tax funds; no schedule was provided.
A town official identified in the meeting as Proble told the council the town has pursued roadway improvements at Speed Creek Road using asset-sale tax money but that the intersection does not meet the criteria for a traffic signal.
"It will not be a signalized intersection because it doesn't meet what they call warrant standards," Proble said, adding that other roadway-section improvements could be made to improve safety though no timeframe was available.
The official said the town had discussed the issue with the county administrator and the town attorney and that safety improvements are "in the works," but he did not provide a firm timeline or a detailed scope for planned work in the recorded segments.
