Recommended Action
Approve

Analysis
In order to cover both adjacent schools (Dubiski High School and Marshall Elementary School) on either side of Fieldcrest Drive, combining the effective times of both the existing school zone and the newly established one-way designation is recommended. The existing school zone is on Fieldcrest Drive between Warrior Trail and Westbrook Court. The one-way begins on Fieldcrest Drive north of the main drives to both schools (380’ north of Warrior Trail) northbound and continues eastbound on Valley Brook Lane up to Boundbrook Lane.

The combined effective times for both the school zone and the one-way segment will begin at 7:15 am until 9:00 am and from 3:00 pm until 4:45 pm on school days.

Financial Consideration
Costs associated with updating the effective times will be paid out of the Street operating budget.
