Finnian Way in the vicinity of Chancery Lane '1 Resolution Location Diagram FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Staff recently implemented pedestrian safety improvements on Finnian Way in the vicinity of Chancery Lane. The Street Maintenance Operating Budget provided sufficient funds to cover the cost of curb painting and sign posting. DESCRIPTION: In June 2006, the City installed pedestrian safety improvements on Finnian Way in the vicinity of Chancery Lane in response to requests made by area residents. These improvements are described below and shown in Attachment 2. 1. The intersection of Finnian Way/Chancery Lane was upgraded from I-way stop sign control (on Chancery Lane) to 3-way stop sign control. This improvement is a safety measure designed to provide traffic control and protection for pedestrians utilizing two existing marked crosswalks across Finnian Way at Chancery Lane. 2. "No Parking" zones were established at various locations on Finnian Way east of Brannigan Street near crosswalk areas and intersection comers. This improvement is designed to improve the sight distance for pedestrians as they cross Finnian Way or other streets in the area. The new "No Parking" zones are moderate in size and do not affect the on-street parking plan for Neighborhoods HI and MHI within Dublin Ranch Area G. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution approving pedestrian safety improvements on Finnian Way in the vicinity of Chancery Lane. COPY TO: Page 1 of 1 ITEM NO.
