Priority 6: Huntzinger Road Safety Improvements <br />a. Phase 1 -MP 2.70 to MP 4.88 <br />b. Phase 2 -MP 5.14 to MP 6.99 <br />c. Phase 3 -MP 6.99 to MP 10.74 <br />Huntzinger Road has several segments of road that scored high on the risk-based prioritization. Although there is no <br />significant accident data to reflect the hazards, the characteristics of the road show several areas of curves; both <br />vertical and horizontal, steep embankments, and no shoulder which are the largest contributing factors to run -oft -road <br />accidents. Guardrail, signing and delineation improvements to this corridor are cost -prohibitive so the county has <br />prioritized the phases in order of mileposts. This project is a priority for Kittitas County because it prevents the most <br />common type of accident (run -off-road) and scored high on risk-based prioritization, and because recreation <br />opportunities and new residence traffic are rapidly increasing along this roadway. It is a lower priority than other <br />projects because we are already addressed the first roadway segments (MP 0.66 to 2.69) in 2017. Kittitas County <br />would like to acknowledge a current and continuing monitoring and evaluation stage for safety in this segment of <br />Huntizinger Rd. <br />23 <br />
