<br /> <br />Stopped delay (time spent stopped or traveling below five miles-per-hour) was also determined using the <br />GPS data, and the average stopped delay for each peak period and direction of travel was reported in Table <br />3-5. As shown, stopped delay is higher during the PM peak hour, especially for westbound traffic. Stopped <br />delay by intersection was also determined, and a table showing the average stopped delays by peak period <br />and direction is provided in the Appendix A. Analysis of this data indicates that the four intersections from <br />Beltline Road to Bailey Hill Road consistently contribute to corridor delay. In addition, six intersections <br />have average stopped delays measured at or above 20 seconds during the PM peak period in either the <br />eastbound or westbound direction. The intersections are listed below by period and direction: <br />PM Peak Hour Eastbound <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Bailey Hill Road (25 seconds) <br />PM Peak Hour Westbound <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Beltline Road (20 seconds) <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Commerce Street (21 seconds) <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Bertelsen Road (26 seconds) <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Bailey Hill Road (21 seconds) <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Seneca Road (21 seconds) <br />th <br /> West 11 Avenue/Garfield Street (25 seconds) <br />Access Points <br />The West 11th Avenue corridor has a significant number of unsignalized access points that are within the <br />influence area of an adjacent traffic signal (within 50 feet to a 100 feet or less in some cases). These <br />unsignalized access points create additional conflict points and add congestion for adjacent signalized <br />movements and may contribute to vehicle collisions. <br />Collision Analysis <br />th <br />Collision analysis of the West 11 Avenue corridor included an evaluation of collision rates at the study <br />intersections and an examination of collision data for trends and potentially hazardous locations in need of <br />mitigation. Four years (2003-2006) of collision data were obtained from the City of Eugene and ODOT. <br />Table 3-7 below summarizes the collisions at each study intersection by quantity, equivalent crash rate per <br />million entering vehicles, severity (property damage only, non-fatal injury, fatal) and whether any <br />pedestrians or bicyclists were involved in any crashes. Typically, a collision rate greater than 1.0 per <br />million entering vehicles indicates the need to further investigate safety related issues at the intersection. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />th <br />West 11 Avenue Corridor Study September 4, 2009 <br />City of Eugene P07265-003-000 <br />19 <br />
