Currently Kittitas Highway and No. 6 Road are both striped with a single dashed stripe <br /> line up to the intersection. This is a standard striping practice seen on rural roads <br /> throughout the County and meets the standard of the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control <br /> Devices (MUTCD). Double yellow stripes can replace the striping on each leg of the <br /> intersection and the change in striping may help alert drivers to a change in road <br /> condition for the intersection. <br /> FISCAL IMPACT: <br /> Speed Reduction Markings: <br /> This is a relatively low-cost countermeasure but does require annual maintenance. Public <br /> Works estimates approximately $2,000 per year to install and maintain Speed Reduction <br /> Markings. <br /> Traffic Rumble Strips: <br /> Permanent rumble strips are relatively low-cost countermeasures. Public Works estimates <br /> $3,000 to install and maintain permanent rumble strips. <br /> Illuminated Stop Ahead Signs: <br /> This is a moderate-cost countermeasure and Public Works estimates $10,000 to $12,000 <br /> to install. <br /> Removal of Obstructions within ROW: <br /> The cost of relocating these obstructions would ultimately fall entirely on the private <br /> property and utility owners, however it may be necessary for Public Works crews to <br /> perform the work and seek reimbursement after the fact. <br /> Alternative Striping Plan: <br /> This is a relatively low-cost countermeasure but does require annual maintenance. Public <br /> Works estimates $2,000 to install and maintain yearly. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> None <br />
