THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PORT COQUITLAM ; >. ITEM I - Continuec. 3. In Ailly locations a rollover curb does not allow a vehicle to be parked with wheels .tuyned against the curb. The objection of the developers to the use of this curb was basically because of its higher cost. However, the Committee feels that some of this cost will eventually be recovered because the builder will not have to repair broken curbs or relocate the drop-curb for his driveway. The other two disadvantages listed cari also be resolved by requiring that our Type A Vertical Curb and Gutter be used on streets with steep grades or at all corners. It does not seem to make sense to use an extruded curb sitting on top of pavement anymore when a proper curb and gutter sitting directly on the base can be built for such a small additional cost. The exception to this rule would be with the completion of streets in areas which already have the extruded curb on top of pave-~- ment. The Committee recommends: 1. That rollover curb and gutter be the accepted standard for all new residential local streets in areas which do not already have curbs. . 2. That vertical curb and gutter be used on steep -roads in residential subdivisions and on all streets with fast or heavy traffic volumes. 3. That extruded vertical curb be allowed in sub- divisions which are in~filling in areas which already have this type of curb. ITEM II Re: Four-Way STOP - Mary Hill Road at Wilson B.C. Hydro have requested a four-way STOP at this intersection. The conéitions for a four-way STOP are favour- able at this location. The traffic volumes are very similar in each direction being about 2,000 to 2,600 vehicles per day. The volumes are neither too high to cause congestion at the four-way STOP nor too low to make the four-way STOP meaningless. There were eight accidents at this intersection in 1977 and eight accidents so far in 1978. [3.006
