CITY OF LODI
TO: City Council
FROM: City Manager
DATE: March 1, 1984
COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
SUBJECT: Replacement of Yietd Signs with Stop Signs on
Vine Street at School Street
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council adopt a resolution eliminating the
Yield Signs and establishing Stop Signs on Vine Street at School Street.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Upon receipt of the attached petition, this Department
investigated the request for Stop Signs on Vine Street at School Street. In 1978,
in an effort to reduce accidents, the City of Lodi began a program of installing
Yield Signs at all uncontrolled 4 -way intersections within the City. The above
intersection was one of those included in the program.
In the three years .previous to the installation of Yield Signs, there had been
19 accidents at the intersection. The instaliatirn of Yield Signs on Vine Street
reduced accidents to the extent that in the following four years there were
only six accidents, or a 75% reduction.
Recently there has been a rash of accidents at the intersection (see attached
accident diagram) almost equaling the rate before the Yield Signs were installed:
five in the past year and three of those in the past three months.
In a further effort to protect drivers from one another, it appears the instal-
lation of Stop Signs is necessary.
