STRATEGIC OUTCOME:

This item supports the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous. The acquisition of the Right-of-Way will allow the installation of five Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon signals that will improve safety at five roadway crossings. Installation of the HAWKs will help address pedestrian-vehicle accidents at these locations.

 

REPORT:

As part of the ADOT Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon Project, the City needs to acquire right-of-way to install five pedestrian hybrid beacons or HAWK signals at the following five locations:  

                     4th Avenue and Court Street,

                     4th Avenue between 4th Street and 5th Street,

                     4th Avenue between 12th Street and 13th Street,

                     24th Street and 6th Avenue, and

                     Giss Parkway between 1st Avenue and Madison Avenue.

HAWK signals improve safety for pedestrians by stopping traffic in both directions and allowing the pedestrian to safely cross.  Based on past traffic data in these areas, it was deemed important to place HAWK signals at these locations.  Legal descriptions and sketches have been prepared as Exhibits A and B showing the right-of-way and are attached to the proposed ordinance.
