Origin
Summary
This staff report outlines the results of an assessment to determine the need and feasibility of prohibiting northbound left turns from the east driveway of No. 831 Progress Avenue, as requested by the business located at that address.
Based on an assessment of the sightlines at the driveway, observations of the operations at the driveway intersection with Progress Avenue, and a review of the collision history at this location, staff have concluded that a prohibition of northbound left turns from this driveway is not justified.
