ESTABLISHING A COMMON CENTER TURN LANE
ON MAINSTREET BETWEEN 5TH TO WASHINGTON AVENUES
Proposed Action.
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: "Move to
direct staff to establish a common center turn lane on Mainstreet
between 5th to Washington Avenues and eliminate all on-street
parkinq in this area except in front of Now Sports, 450
Mainstreet.1f .
Overview.
One of the options identified in the Mainstreet feasibility
report is to establish a common center turn lane. Many of the
property owners in this area that attended the June 3rd
Mainstreet meeting thought that this would be a good idea. There
was however, some concern of the effectiveness of this option by
one of the property owners. In an attempt to address this
concern it was agreed by all the property owners attending the
. June 3rd meeting that the city should establish a common center
turn lane as soon as possible. This would then allow all the
property owners to experience this traffic movement prior to the
July 5th public hearing. staff feels that this would be a good
method to gauge the effectiveness of this option and is therefore
recommending Council pass the recommended motion.
Primary Issues to Consider
0 Can the present traffic movements be re-established if the
common center turn lane option doesn't work?
As with most all established traffic movements, this one can
be changed in the future if it doesn't work. The only thing
that would be needed is Council action authorizing a change.
