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 />
