"OBSERVATION: 1412409

An investigation was conducted on 10/13/17 by 8:36am at 1858 S. Macgregor Way (East bound only) in reference to Cross Walk signs/marking.

The 311 comments- ?This section is part of trail that crosses the road. Needs a traffic sign that says bikes and pedestrian crossing. Because of curved road there is a blind area so the driver cannot see the pedestrian until the last meters. Dangerous?.

A field survey revealed that there is a mid-block crossing for the Braes Bayou Trail 600ft West of Almeda Rd and S. MacGregor Way signalized intersection in the Hermann Park Golf course & Braes Bayou area. This crossing area was monitored and no pedestrians or biking crossing activity was viewed. The crossing area was un-aligned & no cross walk signs or markings were viewed at that this location and none found on COH EAM records at this time. A search of HPD accidental record found no accident in the last 12 month for this location. Please be advised?Crosswalk Designation? TRF EP 10-10 it is recommended that a minimum of 20 pedestrian crossings per peak hour ( 15 or more elderly, person with disability, and/or children pedestrians) exist at a location before placing a crosswalk marking at an un-signalized intersection. New un-signalized mid-block crosswalk traversing uncontrolled portions of major throughcares are strongly discouraged. Uncontrolled marked crosswalk on high volume (>1200 vehicles/day) thoroughfares have been shown to significantly increase pedestrian crash rates over unmarked crossing.

Due to the Crosswalk Policy & finding cross walk marking/signage is not recommended at this time. The findings was emailed to the requestor.

RECOMMENDATION: Due to the finding cross walk marking/signage is not recommended at this time."
