What is the criteria for placing a two-way stop sign?

1 minuteread

The City can consider placing a two-way stop sign at an intersection if the   following criteria are met:

  • Where a street enters a through street; where a safe approach speed is less than 10 mph due to a permanent visibility obstruction such as buildings, trees or shrubs.
  • Where accident history indicates three or more reported crashes over the last three years, and the crashes could have been avoided by the use of a stop sign.
  • Where circumstances and crash history indicate that observing the normal right-of-way rule could still be hazardous, resulting in traffic accidents.
