DESCRIPTION:
At the meeting of March 23rd, the City Council heard a Staff
presentation and public testimony regarding installation of STOP signs on
Bristol Road at Larkdale Avenue, creating a four-way STOP intersection. The
City Council determined that STOP signs were not warranted on Bristol Road at
this location and directed Staff to re-study the intersection from the
standpoint of discouraging motorists from "cutting the corner."
TJKM recommends installation of raised pavement markers along the
existing yellow striping on the southerly leg of Bristol and the westerly leg
of Larkdale. Both of these streets are wide enough to accommodate the double
row of markers.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve implementation of this
plan.

Pavement Markers at Larkdale Avenue and Bristol Road
Although the City Council did not approve the installation of STOP signs on
Bristol Road, they did request staff to look at measures to discourage motorists
from "cutting the corner" when turning into Larkdale Avenue. Our
recommendation was to install raised pavement markers at all the approaches to
the intersection. We checked the curb-to-curb width of Bristol Road and of
Larkdale Avenue. Bristol Road from Tamarack Drive to Larkdale AvenUe is
40 feet wide west of Bristol Road, and 34 feet wide east of Bristol Road. Since
both Bristol Road and Larkdale Avenue are 40 feet wide in the sections that are
most critical for turning movement control, raised pavement markers per Caltrans
Detail 23 should be installed. Please see Figure 1 for an indication of proposed
marker installation.
