ENGINEERING, TRAFFIC AND SPEED SURVEY
HIGHWAY UNDER SURVEY: UNIVERSITY STREET
AREA OF: BROCKTON AVENUE AND
CYPRESS AVENUE
DATE OF SURVEY: July 26 , 1984
FACTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is recommended that based on the facts of this survey, that
University Street, between Brockton Avenue and Cypress Avenue,
be posted as a 30 mph zone. The observed critical speeds were :
28 mph at Lytle Street (pace 22 to 30) , 32 at Park Avenue (pace
24 to 34 ) , and 32 at College Avenue. The roadway width varies
between 39 feet and 73 feet, and there is parking allowed on
both sides of the street. A ball bank indicator test was used
to determine safe speeds for the curves in the roadway at Lytle
Street and just south of Colton Avenue . The test showed that
30 mph was reasonable and safe for the curve at Lytle Street and
that 20 mph was a safe speed for the curve just south of University
Street.
Taking the above facts into consideration, a speed limit of 30 mph
would be appropriate to facilitate the orderly movement of traffic
in a safe and reasonable manner.
It is recommended that the roadway be posted as follows :
1 . Post 30 mph signs for northbound traffic .
a . Just north of Cypress Avenue
b. Just north of Central Avenue
C . Just north of Colton Avenue
2 . Post 30 mph signs for southbound traffic .
a. Just south of Brockton Avenue
b. Just south of Colton Avenue
C. Just south of Citrus Avenue
3 . Post 20 mph curve advisory signs .
For both directions of travel prior to the curve, just south
of Colton Avenue.
