Budget Referral for the Evaluation and Implementation of a Smaller Traffic Circle at the Intersection of Allston and California
Revised Material
From: Councilmember Harrison
Recommendation: Refer to the City Manager to assess and identify improvements to the Allston and California intersection. The large traffic circle is less than the customary 18 feet from the crosswalk and requires automobiles to veer toward the crosswalk. Our office requests that the Department evaluate the construction of a smaller traffic circle at Allston and California. Along with this, we request new traffic counts be collected while all schools are in session to update the 2013 analysis for consideration of an all-way stop at this road junction. This would increase road safety by assuring that vehicles enter the intersection at lower speeds. Both of these factors should be considered and addressed in improvements to be recommended for this intersection.
