Description
I love near this intersection and since Nemours Parkway opened, Granger is used for a cut through. Because of the raised speed table just East of this intersection, traffic flowing East on Tavistock often stops. we think because cars are slowing for the speed table confusing them. We desperately need a 4-way stop here because people stop alreadya do create mass chaos.

Good morning,
Thanks for contacting City of Orlando Transportation Engineering with your request. Tavistock Blvd & Granger Ave is currently on our queue of locations to be studied; we received a similar request through the Commissioner's Office. We will add your request to the request received before, once we have a recommendation you will also be notified.

Thank you for your request for all-way stop control for the intersection within your neighborhood. In response to this request, the Transportation Engineering Division completed an engineering study using new traffic data and crash history to evaluate the need for any changes in traffic control at the intersection. These types of engineering studies follow federal guidelines in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and take into consideration road user (vehicle, pedestrian, and bicycle) thresholds for a certain number of hours in an average day. In addition, the guidelines factor in recent crash history.
Based on the analysis performed on October 2020 using current speed/volume and crash data, a multi-way stop condition was not warranted at this time for the intersection of Tavistock Lakes Blvd & Granger Ave. The average 8 hours for Tavistock Lakes Blvd were 460 vehicles/hour (threshold per guideline is a minimum of 300 vehicles/hour) and the average 8 hours for Granger Ave were 157 vehicles/hour (threshold per guideline is a minimum of 200 vehicles/hour); the number of correctable crashes was one and the 85th percentile speed was 26 mph.
Thanks for caring for the City of Orlando
