    Creek Road safety update

    Discussed

    Ivan Hooper of Public Works presented a joint Sandy and Cottonwood Heights study of the Creek Road corridor of about four miles. Nine crosswalks exist, many installed without city involvement and not meeting current standards; residents cited the lack of sidewalks, speeding and drivers not yielding. Short-term recommendations are to move three crosswalks, add visibility treatments and add two crosswalks; long-term recommendations are a full-corridor sidewalk, upgraded pedestrian facilities, lighting and speed management. Ryan Kump and Hooper answered questions on the speed limit and bulb-out costs. No dollar amounts were stated.
