Brett Hondorp Alta Planning + Design

Suggested Routes to School Details Primary Goals 1.To develop suggested route maps for 18 elementary and middle schools in GIS format. 2.Identify pedestrian and mobility enhancements for future capital projects. Total Project Budget:$125,000 Time to Complete:16 months

Step 1: Signage and Striping Inventory Inventory of: –School area signs –Pavement markings –School crosswalk markings –Curb ramp presence/absence –Traffic Signals –Stop signs School signs identified by MUTCD sign code Color (Yellow vs FYG) and condition (good, fair, poor) noted
