Meeting adjourned at 8:49 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Barbara Zanzig br/g848D 4irmw *we MEMORANDUM TO: Transportation Advisory Committee August 3, 1989 FROM: Randall R. Wooley, City Engineer RE: 1989-90 Capital Improvement Program At the May meeting, the Committee had focused on two projects for potential funding in the 1989-90 CIP. Funds are sufficient to fund only one of the projects. The two projects are Greenburg/Cascade and 72nd/99W. The Greenburg/Cascade project would provide a traffic signal at the intersection. The 72nd/99W project would provide for final design and perhaps some right-of- way acquisition for improvements to the 72nd Avenue approach to 99W. At the May meeting, the Committee had requested updated traffic counts at the two intersections. The attached sketch shows the current traffic counts. All of the counts were taken in May and June of this year except for Pacific Highway. The Pacific Highway count are two years old; however, based on information available elsewhere on Highway 99W, I believe that the traffic volumes have increase only slightly on Pacific Highway at this location. Also attached are copies of additional correspondence which has been received from Sentrol regarding the Greenburg/Cascade intersection. The agenda for the August 10 meeting appears to be quite short. However, the decision on the project for CIP funding is an important one. I encourage all members of the Committee to try to attend this meeting. dj/MEMO-TAC.RW w, Q Q , v CO " V. tu 0,000* .rte *1987 commis a4 ci G` Ateicict en 2.0 te; • AVERAGE JkED,?y /RRFFtc /989 Coem6 except as waled w Spike Friedman General Manager sEngOLR _ n�uR;NELIABLEsB,�� R MACHINE PERCEPTION 10775 S.W.

Hall Blvd. Tigard, OR 97223 Dear Mister Reilley - I drive Cascade Blvd./Greenburg Road daily; and find entering Greenburg in the late afternoon EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! I suggest that you have your street/highway planning staff do a study of this problem and rectify the situation before there is a major crash. Daily. . . there are innumerable close calls as drivers rush to join the flow of traffic as the "unseen" car comes out of the Mobil station and the Shilo Inn. Further, quite a number of people make illegal U-turns and backtract to Scholls when they find the intersection backed up. This in itself is quite a precarious process as well . Sir, I believe that if you were caught here on a regular basis, you too would see the immediate need to rectify this daily hazzard!

Hall Blvd. Tigard, OR 97223 Dear Mr. Reilly, We the employees of Sentrol Inc. are having extreme difficulties entering onto Greenberg road from Cascade Blvd. A large percentage of our lunch period (1/2 hour) can be absorbed by waiting for an opportunity to enter into the traffic at this busy intersection. The traffic light at the corner of North Dakota and Greenberg is an aid to those motorists, but ' since that light has been put in place we have experienced even greater traffic difficulties both at lunch time and at the time we return home. We ask that you and the staff of the City of Tigard please consider constructing a controlled intersection at the corner of S.W. Greenberg Rd. and S.W. Cascade Blvd. We thank you for your kind consideration. Signed : The concerned employees of Sentrol Inc. 4. . s_ ' alkett - ,,, g011401011011 wipierst. .,,.., A - -?
