e AlIf <br />4411 b <br />MEMORANDUM <br />I-CY"VI"Y'YAiS C ),XT1V1I7W <br />DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC WORKS <br />Mark Cook, PE Director <br />TO: Kittitas County Board of County Commissioners <br />FROM: Lucas Huck P.E. County Engineer <br />DATE: March 9, 2017 <br />SUBJECT: Manastash Metric Special Event Application <br />After review of the application and letters dated October 7, 2017 for the proposed "Manastash <br />Metric — The Drier Ride Bike Ride," I have found that the applicant has identified that this event <br />will not obstruct, interfere or require the closure and free use of public roads and rights of way. <br />Illustrations identifying the proposed route, and participant safety protocols were described. In <br />which the applicant stated "Both routes will be well marked with chalk Dan Henry signs on the <br />roadway. Riders will be given the course route map prior to the, ride and be aware of any last <br />minute changes. Large orange "Bikes on the Roadway" signs will be placed on Hwy 10 to notify <br />cars of riders." Additionally it has been stated a vehicle will follow the last rider through the <br />event, these efforts will help mitigate the risk of bicycle and motorized vehicle conflicts. <br />Public Works would recommend the deployment of "Bikes on the Roadway" signs along the <br />County Roads and intersections in addition to placement along Hwy 10. <br />The applicant will be required to issue advanced notification for the event and any traffic impacts <br />in the Daily Record and NKC Tribune two weeks in advance to inform the traveling public. <br />Public Works recommends approval of this event based on these conditions being upheld. <br />Please feel free to contact Kittitas County Public Works with any additional questions you may <br />have at 509-962-7523. <br />Thanks, <br />r . <br />Lucas Huck <br />Page 1 of 1 <br />411 N.
