Guidance
 
Description:
Bill Greenwood would like to address the committee about his opposition to the direction of traffic flow on Plum Street from westbound to eastbound.   At the December 22, 2010 committee meeting, staff discussed the request to change the traffic flow of Plum Street. Because this is an operational improvement to the area, it did not require a vote by the Mayor and Council. This change was intended to help improve safety, visibility and access in that area. Staff contacted 14 local businesses prior to making the change and recieved overwhelming support. Prior to the change staff notified the public through a press release and variable message signs. RDOT staff will also be monitoring traffic flow in the area for the next several months.
