DESCRIPTION:
City of Dublin Ordinance 55-87 (Traffic Ordinance) provides that
signalized intersections must be established by resolution. Prohibition of
U-Turns must be established bM ordinance. ~/
Construction of/a traffic signal at the intersection of Dougherty Road
at Amador Valley Bo~ievard is one of the conditions of approval for Tract
5511, the Villages at Willow Creek. This signal is in the process of being
constructed by Rafanelli and Nahas and will soon be operational. ~~~,~----~'- , ~
U-turns must be prohibited for northbound traffic because of lack of
sufficient room to make a U-turn. It is recommended that the ordinance
prohibiting U-turns be adopted on an urgency basis so that it will be in
effect when the signal is activated. Dougherty Road is presently scheduled to
be widened in front of Arroyo Vista next spring, and it may be possible to
allow U-turns after the widening is done.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, waive
the reading, and adopt the ordinance prohibiting U-turns for northbound
traffic on Dougherty Road at Amador Valley Blvd. on an urgency basis; and
adopt the resolution designating the intersection as signalized.
