To the Honorable Board:

 

{The following are responses by Traffic and Parking to various Board Orders.)

 

B.O.A. Order #190518

                             That the Director of Traffic and Parking install Stop signs at the intersection of School St and Evergreen Ave, making this intersection a 3-way stop.

 

                             The installation of Stop signs falls under the standards of the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).  These are Federal, State and City standards that Somerville adheres to.  Per these standards, Stop signs cannot be installed on School St at Evergreen Ave.

 

B.O.A. #190520

                            That the Director of Traffic and Parking install a “Children Playing Slow” sign near 45 Francesca Ave, at Liberty Ave.

 

                             Traffic and Parking has previously reviewed this request as a 311 Work Order.  Traffic and Parking has no objections to this request.  The DPW will install the sign as requested.
