Committee files blind-driveway petition for engineering study and advises enforcement for Windham Street request
The committee filed a petition for engineering study at Lake Ave North (425) to evaluate advisory speed signage and curvature treatments after staff reported average speeds of 34 mph; the Windham Street 'do not block' request was filed while staff recommended enforcement and statutory no-parking postings rather than custom signage.
The full story
A petition requesting a blind-driveway sign in front of 425 Lake Ave North was filed so the Department of Transitional Mobility (DTM) can perform an engineering evaluation. Staff said the location has an S-curve under I-290 and that average speeds are about 34 miles per hour, with an 85th-percentile speed near 43 mph; staff recommended an engineering study to evaluate approach curvature, advisory-speed plaques and signage rather than a nonstandard 'blind driveway' sign.
