Analysis
The new Fire Station No. 10, at the intersection of Grand Peninsula Drive and Balboa, is scheduled for a late Spring 2016 opening. Traffic signals are needed at Grand Peninsula Drive and Balboa, and Balboa at the new Fire Station No. 10 driveway to facilitate fire trucks entering and exiting the station.
In addition to the two traffic signals for Fire Station No. 10, staff has conducted analyses for the installation of traffic signals at the intersections of:
• England Pkwy at N. Grand Peninsula Drive
• England Pkwy at S. Grand Peninsula Drive
• S. Grand Peninsula Drive at Lake Ridge Pkwy
• Camp Wisdom at Lynn Road
These intersections are currently controlled by stop sign, and are warranted for the installation of a traffic signal.
