BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Staff received a request from a resident to install pavement markings on southbound Klein Way at Klein Road due to safety concerns. In response to this request, staff assigned a third party on-call traffic engineer for further evaluation, which resulted in a recommendation for pavement markings on Klein Way both at Klein Road and in front of the NBISD schools and bus barn. The recommended pavement markings involve delineating through lanes, turn lanes, and parking areas, and as a result, depends on the establishment of parking restrictions along some portions of Klein Way. The purpose of this item is to discuss and consider the no parking zones that are to accompany the recommended pavement markings discussed in a separate item.
ISSUE:
A recommended pavement marking plan for Klein Way between Klein Road and Settlers Crossing requires areas of parking restrictions.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Traffic control signs cost approximately $150 each. Sufficient funding is available in the FY 2024 approved streets and drainage budget.Recommendation
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends a no parking zone on Klein Way.
