Committee removes time-based no-turn-on-red restriction at Grandview & Silvernail

Engineering staff explained that the time-limited 'no turn on red' signs at the intersection of North Grandview Boulevard and Silvernail Road were originally installed because of a BP driveway near the intersection. The BP site has been redeveloped and the driveway removed, and engineering recommended removing the southbound 'no turn on red' signs and the attached time restrictions.

A committee member moved to remove the signs, the motion was seconded and the committee approved the recommendation by unanimous voice vote. Darren noted he could not find a record explaining why the on-street placard times had previously been changed in the field; members asked staff to remove both the signs and the time restrictions as presented. "I tried to go back on the history ... and I could not find how or why it changed," Darren said.

The committee recorded the approval by voice vote; individual roll-call votes were not read into the transcript.
