closed: Resolved #212816

Line of Sight:

Other: When driving west on 9th and stopped at Lincoln, it is really difficult to see on-coming traffic from the south because of two things. There are some plants out front that are too tall and completely prevent drivers from seeing unless they pull way forward, and at that point the car is already in the street and could get hit. Also, for some reason there is a huge deck in the front yard, the kind that really belongs in someone's backyard. Why are they allowed to have a deck right there that looks terrible and blocks view of oncoming traffic? It looks so trashy.

City staff investigated the reported sight distance concern at 9th and Lincoln. No vegetation was found to be obstructing the required view of southbound traffic. Although visibility is limited from the stop bar, drivers may cautiously move forward before entering the traveled lane. Staff measured the available sight distance from this position and found that it meets the recommended SSD requirement. No traffic related corrective action is recommended at this time.
