SUBJECT: Stop Signs at Various Intersections = Public
Committee November 3, 1987 i

Recommendation:

That stop signs be installed at the following loc
Nottingham Place at Citadel Drive
Knights Court at Kensington Crescent
Kensington Crescent east of Kensington Place

Vincent Street north and south of Fraser Avenue

Background and Comments:

The first three requests are signs paid for by the

developer in accordance with our development policy. These
roads are now paved and the signs are required to be installed.

The stops signs at Vincent Street have been requested from
+he Public Works Committee several timese There does not
appear to be an accident problem at the intersection as the
last year in which any accidents were recorded by the R.C.M.P.
was 1985, with two recorded. However, the potential for a
serious accident exists. All of the other intersections within
close proximity of this one are stop sign controlled. The
danger is that a driver approaching this intersection will
assume that this one is also controlled and proceed through
expecting crossing traffic To stop. For consistency, the
Committee recommends that this intersection also be controlled.
