Adjourn CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE ARKANSAS TC MEETING OF MAY 25,2021 TO: Transportation Committee THRU: Chris Brown, Public Works Director FROM: Matt Casey, Engineering Design Manager DATE: May 20, 2021 SUBJECT: North and Mission Intersection CITY COUNCIL MEMO BACKGROUND: Mission Boulevard (Highway 45) is an important active transportation connection for the east side of Fayetteville. In 2015, the City in-house construction crew built a'/z mile section of 12- foot-wide shared use paved trail from the Mission Heights neighborhood to Viewpoint Dr. In 2019, a shared use paved trail and cycle track was completed along Old Wire Road from Mission Blvd. to Gulley Park where the Niokaska Creek Trail will soon be completed. The goal of the Mission Blvd. Trail and Street Improvements Project is to connect these two projects and extend a safe and comfortable route for bicycles and pedestrians along Mission Blvd from Viewpoint Dr. to Maple Street where on -street routes connect to downtown and the Razorback Greenway. This 1.5-mile corridor is proposed to include a 12-foot-wide shared use paved trail with green space separation with trees, lighting, curb and storm drainage with a focus on bike and pedestrian safety. This project is identified as a priority in the Active Transportation Master Plan and as a catalyst project in the Northwest Arkansas Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan. In addition, this project ranks number 6 by the Mobility Plan project prioritization scoring matrix. In 2019, the Toole Design Group provided the targeted bicycle network strategy for Fayetteville. This report recommends several street corridors for enhancement with bicycle facilities including the Midtown and Mission Blvd. corridors. The guide provides specific design concepts to safely incorporate bicycles and pedestrians. At the intersection of North Street and Mission Blvd. the bicycle network strategy identified a roundabout. Based on this recommendation, Crafton, Tull & Associates was asked to include design study for the roundabout in the scope of their design contract approved in June of 2020 by resolution 181-20. DISCUSSION: The City of Fayetteville requested public input on this project throughout the Spring of 2021 by mailing out notification forms and an online survey and comment form on the Speak Up Fayetteville page. As of May 18', 2021, we received over 760 comments from the public that are provided in the agenda packet. The comments are overall very positive regarding the trail improvements, but many questions and concerns were voiced about the roundabout at North St. and Mission Blvd. These questions were also brought up at the April 2021 Transportation Committee. In response, staff worked with our Transportation Division to collect current traffic Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 counts and turning movements. Using this data, 2040 and 2050 traffic counts were developed. Crafton, Tull and Associates used these numbers to analyze the levels of service for the roundabout proposed while the City staff analyzed the levels of service for a signalized condition. Below is a comparison of the levels of service: Turning 2021 2040 2050 Movement Roundabout Signal Roundabout Signal Roundabout Signal AM PM AM PM AM PM AM PM AM PM AM PM East Bound A A C C B C D C C E D C North Bound A A B A A A A B A B B B South Bound A A B C A A C C A A C C A review of this data shows that either option would produce acceptable levels of service for each approach direction. The only movement that is not desirable is the 2050 East bound PM movement for the roundabout (LOS E). In all other AM and PM movements, the roundabout produces the same or slightly better levels of service compared to the signal. This analysis does not take into account pedestrian movements for either option. The roundabout design would provide rectangular rapid flashing beacons (RRFB) with crosswalks on each leg of the roundabout. The traffic signal option would include geometric improvements to better accommodate crosswalks for each leg of the intersection. The signal timing and configuration would be designed to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle traffic through the intersection, the trail and sidewalks. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: The design and construction for the intersection portion of this project will be paid for with the funds from the 2019 Transportation Bond Fund. The trail portion of this project is to be constructed with the in-house trail construction program utilizing 1.5 million of CIP funding. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Due to the significant increase in cost for the roundabout option and the acceptable levels of service provided by the signal option, staff recommends that the City pursue the signalized intersection with improvements to enhance pedestrian safety. ACTION REQUESTED BY COMMITTEE: Staff is requesting a Committee recommendation to pursue the signal option.

BACKGROUND: The Archibald Yell Road Diet project was a key recommendation in the 2019 Mobility Plan that is expected to greatly enhance the walkability and safety and accessibility for people walking from south Fayetteville to downtown. Key parts of the plan include reconfiguring the road from 4 lanes to 3 with a painted buffer space on the west/north side of the road for pedestrians. The plans also detail a redesign of the intersections of Rock and S. School Street with College Ave and a signal at South Street with protected crosswalks. In conjunction with a traffic study of the corridor the City released plan documents and two public surveys regarding the project. The surveys had approximately 700 total surveys completed responses. DISCUSSION: The attached report details the public comments. Some key takeaways from public comment include: 1. Strongly negative perceptions of the safety of existing conditions- particularly for pedestrians. 2. Strong support for adding sidewalks and safety crossings. 3. Mixed feedback on the lane reductions with may people concerned about congestion. 4. Little support for dedicated bicycle facilities for this project due steep grades and availability of alternate routes. 5. Significant number of requests for pedestrian tunnels and bridges crossings that have been deemed infeasible. ATTACHMENTS: • Survey reports Mailing Address: 113 W.

Anonymous I travel on Rock Street daily and this 6/29/2020 would alleviate all the traffic issues I face regularly. Anonymous ABY was created as a bypass. If the 6/29/2020 11:42 AM city makes ABY more difficult, I will not be frequenting businesses in south Fayetteville. Springdale is closer to my home but Fayetteville is closer to work. Anonymous I feel that this is a good inexpensive design that will allow pedestrians to easily and safely cross Arch Yell without needing to install a traffic signal Anonymous Cars frequently don't stay in their 6/29/2020 11:45 AM lane. Anonymous I think the pedestrian crossing would 6/29/2020 11:46 AM be dangerous and bad for traffic. Anonymous It would seem that at least one of the S. College turns should allow the left turn onto Archibald Yell. Anonymous The speed is appropriate given traffic flow surrounding area Anonymous This will create unnecessary 6/29/2020 11:52 AM congestion during moderate to peak traffic times daily. Will cause significant issues during Razorback games of most sports. Anonymous Although posted at 35mph and 25 mph recommended, cars always pass me, meaning they're going above the 35 mph speed limit, 25mph is a much better speed for a neighborhood street. I also think college from North to MLK should be a 25mph zone. Page 12 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous I'm usually coming from the other direction. The intersection is question does not affect me as much. Anonymous I think there should be an elevated walkway across the road. Anonymous Speeds are usually less than the 6/29/2020 12:04 PM posted speed limit due to cars turning onto and off of Archibald Yell. Anonymous 6/29/2020 12:08 PM Too much going on at the E Rock intersection. Anonymous Would need to ensure greenspace doesn't obstruct views (ex: trying to enter the square from any of the four stop signs) Anonymous 6/29/2020 12:13 PM Anonymous There is absolutely nothing wrong with this street as it is. Save the money and spend it where it is actually needed. Could be good! Anonymous No bicycle accommodations; the northbound merge from S School scares me a bit; overall I think this is very drastic and will cause some controversy, but you're right on the mark. Anonymous People speed down the curves. Anonymous I don't see any reason to change something that works well enough and people are used to the flow of traffic here. Anonymous 6/29/2020 12:15 PM Just my opinion RSchaffner I think you mean Q9 - I can't think of 6/29/2020 12:17 PM a way to make this design better. But if you meant 8 - then I feel it moves too fast because its near impossible Page 13 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 to do anything but drive on Archibald Yell due to the road design and speed of cars. For those of us who primarily bike and walk, this is a huge hinderance to getting downtown. Anonymous It will improve safety Anonymous Improves ability to walk across the 6/29/2020 12:18 PM road safely. Would add pedestrian/bike path on east side of Archibald Yell, south to MLk. Anonymous I think it's generally a good proposal, but it seems like there needs to be some way for drivers to turn left onto Archibald Yell Blvd, which would likely come from alternate (and likely larger) changes that may not be possible at the time. Anonymous I feel fine and safe to drive on 6/29/2020 12:30 PM Archibald Yell as is. A fifty line in the middle would be helpful. As population grow the traffic congestion is increasing year after year. This is a major artery (fast speed street) and it's part of College Ave. Changing its nature and reducing it to it to 2 or 3 lanes (low speed) would cause congestion at north on College Ave at the intersection with Rock St, and at south with MILK Anonymous 6/29/2020 12:30 PM Makes sense. Anonymous This is a confusing (to some) and 6/29/2020 12:38 PM dangerous intersection. These improvements will, I believe, make it safer Anonymous Entering and existing E. Rock is 6/29/2020 12:39 PM extremely dangerous. Have successfully done it for 32 yrs, but time to improve. Anonymous 6/29/2020 12:46 PM Because, I think this design is worse than the current intersection. The Page 14 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 main purpose of this road is a North South Corridor for Central Fayetteville, cutting back lane access will hinder and put in danger automobiles. The road is particurlarly dicey in Icy Winter weather and throughout the year when wet roads exist, changing the speed, and alternative access of lanes could be extremely dangerous. Anonymous Cars drive too fast through curves. Anonymous Our Engineering Division is excellent, 6/29/2020 12:50 PM and I respect their advice and recommendation. Anonymous This seems to be the tricky 6/29/2020 12:54 PM intersection and is the intersection where I usually enter and exit College. Frequently there are 3 cars at each street waiting to enter or turn L. North bound drivers at the S College stop sign will pull out in front of a south bound driver making a left off College onto E Rock every time. When there are 2 cars stopped on E Rock and S College, there is usually a game of dare to see who will pull out first. Anonymous If you mean question 9, then 1 6/29/2020 12:54 PM appreciate that it factors in pedestrian crossing. I believe it will make my life significantly more protected as a pedestrian who crosses this intersection daily. Anonymous This will create confusion with rock street entering the roadway and being able to continue to turn left off of archibald yell across a blind turn will not be improved Anonymous It eliminates the confusion of who 6/29/2020 01:03 PM has the right of way when turning onto Archibald Yell from either S. College or Rock Street and Page 15 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 eliminates the right of way issue (that shouldn't be an issue...) between those traveling south bound on Archibald Yell and those wishing to enter (northbound) onto Archibald Yell from South College. I honestly cannot tell you how many times I have nearly been hit turning onto Rock Street from Archibald Yell by someone attempting to enter Archibald Yell from S. College. No matter how many "yield to south bound traffic" signs are put up, people just don't get it and it continues to be a very dangerous intersection. Anonymous Do you mean question #9? If so, 6/29/2020 01:05 PM because I think it will still be dangerous to cross Hwy 71 B at Rock St. on foot, as proposed. Anonymous This doesn't seem like a solution to 6/29/2020 01:12 PM the problem to me. Anonymous I live at 307 S Block Ave and having lived here some 5 years or so no less then 3 cars have jumped the curb and even hit one of the apartments on a couple ocassions. I have kids I can't help but think that slowing down the speed limit could help with this. Anonymous I think that IF everyone is going 35 6/29/2020 01:15 PM MPH or less then this is safe as designed. Many people are going much faster than the posted speed limit and this increases the level of accident risk/adjacent lane interference. Anonymous Any change to that intersection is an improvement but this still looks kind of confusing. Anonymous It removes the conflict between S. 6/29/2020 01:20 PM College and Rock, making turns from all directions more predictable and safe. Page 16 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous That is a lot of things going on in an already dangerous intersection. Seems hazardous as proposed, but also hard to envision. Anonymous There are people who drive too fast and people who drive too slow, in my opinion. So whatever you do, the drivers that are nervous through that stretch are going to drive too slow and the ones who are comfortable are going to continue to speed. You just have to make sure there is room to go around the slow cars safely and make sure that the speeding cars can get around you safely. Anonymous Curvy road, people usually driving 6/29/2020 01:30 PM over speed limit, not much pedestrian protection, way too much vehicular options at Rock street. Anonymous Traveling southbound and as the 6/29/2020 01:32 PM elevation drops towards South, traveling side by side through the sweeping turns doesn't feel safe. Anonymous Making this road 3 lanes will just 6/29/2020 01:32 PM cause further issues with an already existent congestion issues. Anonymous because people speed through that 6/29/2020 01:40 PM section with no regard to those turning. Anonymous I worked at South and Archibald Yell for 6+ years and frequently saw cars driving too fast on the downhill and accelerating aggressively going uphill. Anonymous confusing lanes 6/29/2020 01:46 PM Anonymous Assuming you mean #9, the traffic 6/29/2020 01:50 PM right there is very congested. If you go down to turning lanes and one thru lane on each side, there will be more traffic needing to merge be they are in the wrong lane. Seems it Page 17 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 would create a bottle neck there and be more dangerous than it is now. Anonymous Plan attempts to create street alignments where traffic volumes do not support such changes. Anonymous Improvements to northbound traffic turning right on a college, pedestrian bridge over S College from Rock ST, Lessen the curve for S bound Archibald Yell traffic. Anonymous It is a difficult area in serious need of 6/29/2020 01:59 PM improvement for safety and pedestrians. A pedestrian would still have to negotiate a number of crossings to go between downtown and S College but it does increase foot traffic safety. Anonymous It's too fast due to the curves in the 6/29/2020 02:00 PM road. Anonymous Unless I missed something, the spot 6/29/2020 02:01 PM where driver is turning right from Rock Street to go north on College and the spot where driver is stopped at the top of College and plans to proceed north on College has always been unclear to me as to who has right of way. It's like playing cat and mouse at that 'intersection' and I've had too many close calls at that place. Add some pedestrians to that and it is a scary situation. Anonymous I work on Archibald Yell and have 6/29/2020 02:07 PM witnessed many accidents or near accidents along the street. Most of them seem to be due to distracted driving or speed. Changes that I referenced in #9 would be a way to allow for safe pedestrian crossing of college. I feel without a signalized intersection traffic will not stop for pedestrians. Also there are sightline issues for pedestrians crossing archibald at the southern crossing. Page 18 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous Because the speed and traffic is just 6/29/2020 02:14 PM fine the way it is. There shouldn't be any pedestrians or bikes in that area. If there are then they can go to an already established light or crosswalk to get downtown. Stop screwing up the city streets. There are more drivers than pedestrians and they should be given first consideration. Anonymous I think people go really fast 6/29/2020 02:21 PM southbound down the hill Anonymous There needs to be much 6/29/2020 02:21 PM improvement made to the sidewalks along the entire boulevard. This plan does not beyond this intersection. Anonymous It should make it slightly less 6/29/2020 02:26 PM confusing. Anonymous (I'm assuming this referred to 6/29/2020 02:32 PM question #9) 1 think the intersection is an excellent solution because it reduces the number of lanes in each direction and clarifies the intention of each lane. Drivers and pedestrians won't have to anticipate whether a left turn signal is a left turn onto Rock or onto College or any other confusion. I think it's a great idea. Anonymous I think the 2 pedestrian crossings is 6/29/2020 02:34 PM very helpful. And the dedicated turn/merge lanes is much safer. Anonymous I go south on college and turn left 6/29/2020 02:48 PM onto rock everyday to get home from work. People coming north on college frequently dont yield correctly to the right of way given they have a stop sign and i have had near misses that could have been very serious car accidents multiple times a week. Fixing this intersection is very important however the above design just looks like the same headache shaped differently. Page 19 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous Improved visibility and elimination of 6/29/2020 02:59 PM left turn possibility from eastbound Rock onto Archibald - this is great! Also seems like a good way to alleviate the bottleneck of traffic for people trying to turn left onto S. College while southbound, which creates traffic issues every day in my experience. Anonymous Well, I don't give a lot of credit to the 6/29/2020 03:31 PM modern driver honestly. Mostly I see people barely able to give the minimal attention required to navigate safely. This intersection isn't really that bad once you realize the people stopped at the north bound stop sign on college are required to yield to South bound traffic turning into rock st. (This would still be a problem with the proposed change) However, that traffic rule isn't communicated effectively to all parties in the intersection. To know this you would have to have both driven north on college starting at MLK and be able to read signs as you go. And if you have ever gone north on college from MLK then I don't know why you would do it a second time. There are so many better options. I would, as proposed, soften the angle (and grade) of approach to College from Rock st., and block left turns. That way people could actually accelerate into traffic without losing traction. I would close the north bound lane of "little college", but would still allow south bound traffic to enter the neighborhood. I would Definitely keep the crosswalks and give the pedestrians the ability to stop traffic when they cross. Otherwise they risk their lives in "The Gauntlet of the Modern Motorist". Making archibald yell two lanes and a turning lane seems like there would just be a Page 20 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous 6/29/2020 03:36 PM traffic jam there everyday. The south bound left turn lanes wouldn't matter, because no south bound traffic would ever have the opportunity to turn onto rock or college anyway. There would be a Funeral parade of cars coming up the hill, and still going fast as the slowest car. Once we all admit the fact that the battle of archibald yell is lost, we can close all the side streets between South School and Rock St and put a traffic signal and good pedestrian crossing in at rock st. , clap the dust off our hands, and call it a day. All that to say, I think what you have would improve that intersection. (as long as the pedestrian crosswalk stops traffic) I also think it would make a lot of congestion, complaints, and honking as people failed to merge considerately.

Anonymous Increasing speed on this stretch of 6/29/2020 05:29 PM road risks cars overturning, decreasing the speed would impede traffic flow Anonymous It seems like slowing down the movement will make it safer for cars and people.

And it's unsafe for drivers, too. I feel more nervous driving on AY then anywhere else in Fayetteville.

If you meant #9, then I think it's because anything is better than the nightmare that is there currently Anonymous There are a number of issues with 6/29/2020 07:29 PM this proposal. The ONLY way to effective mitigate this intersection is a stop light. You should remove the light at Mountain Street to maintain better flow. 1) The placement of crosswalks at nearly the top and the top of Archibald Yell (AY) is EXTREMELY dangerous. There is very little foot traffic here to begin with, and without a stop light, this Page 23 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous 6/29/2020 07:32 PM Anonymous 6/29/2020 07:41 PM Anonymous 6/29/2020 07:42 PM Anonymous 6/29/2020 07:44 PM Anonymous 6/29/2020 08:08 PM would just add to the confusion and danger for pedestrians. 2) There is no need need for a dedicated right - turn lane from northbound AY onto southbound S. College Ave. If people want that stretch of road, they may and do continue eastbound on MLK and turn right onto that stretch of S. College. That should be NO right - turn, if anything. Then you could effectively make that section of S. School ONE-WAY ONLY, northbound. That would make the intersection a 4-way with AY and Rock in both directions. People northbound on AY could make a right turn on Rock or continue straight. People on Rock could effectively then be allowed to travel in both directions. AFTER that intersection, heading north on College is where the road should be reduced to three lanes, with a dedicated center turn lane. This is a terrible intersection, so any improvements are welcome. People drive way to fast for all those corners Need to close AYB and turn the intersection from five way to four way. There is still confusion who has the right of way between those turning left onto rock versus those going straight onto college. I think it could be simplified. Anonymous I like to bike and walk and it is hard 6/29/2020 08:10 PM to cross with traffic going so quickly.

Anonymous Adding in two crosswalks to a section 6/29/2020 09:43 PM of road already congested by too stop lights, not a good suggestion unless this is an over traffic bridged crosswalk like in eureka springs.

Anonymous I think adding pedestrian crossing to 6/30/2020 06:31 AM this intersection is dangerous. There are a number of pedestrian crossing options further up College that already allow for pedestrians to get to the square if they wish to. From my experience driving on this road every day during the week, reducing the lanes is just asking for more congestion and dangerous driving situations. If anything, this area needs to be five lanes even though the topography of the area probably Page 27 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 does not allow for that. Anonymous The road is wide and encourages 6/30/2020 06:34 AM high speeds. But it is filled with intersecting roads, businesses, and sharp curves on a steep slope. It often feels like drivers treat it like a go cart track, making it risky for people turning and dangerous for pedestrians. Anonymous Having a crosswalk there is 6/30/2020 06:44 AM dangerous and unwise due to the amount of traffic and lack of visibility. This is a major thoroughfare for north -south traffic in the city (which continues to grow). Pedestrian crossing should be directed north, south or via a bridge over the road. Single lane traffic on the lower part of the hill is not a good idea and will result in greater traffic congestion and slow down. This is not a good plan.

Anonymous The current intersection of Archibald 6/30/2020 08:51 AM Yell and College Ave is very dangerous. Anonymous I think that differentiating the left turns to Rock and College will solve my biggest issue with the intersection, which is when coming up College to make a right turn, it's challenging to tell if someone turning left going south on College is turning in front of me (Rock) or behind me (College). Also think that using those left -only lanes is a good way to to transition to 3 lanes. Anonymous I think an intersection should be 6/30/2020 08:55 AM considered because of the pedestrians and bicycles. Other than that I like that it disconnects all the roads so there is a clear path for everyone. It can get confusing there. Anonymous It limits conflicting movements, such as crossing lanes on 71 B from the side streets. Anonymous As is, this is a very dangerous 6/30/2020 08:57 AM intersection.

Anonymous I believe that this design allows for 6/30/2020 09:19 AM the same dangerous, high-speed crossing (south bound across AY to S. College) that results in speeding down that hill into the neighborhood. Could the design include a stop at the bottom of the hill (South Street intersection with S.

The eastbound lane of Rock should also stay within the current street section. Anonymous As it is laid out now, it is difficult to 6/30/2020 09:56 AM turn onto Archibald yell, or turn left off of it from either direction, with traffic moving at the current speeds around the curves. With proposed traffic lights and intersection changes, I think current speeds would be less of a problem Anonymous There is always confusion at that 6/30/2020 10:04 AM intersection about who has the right of way. It makes it dangerous. Anonymous Because people drive to fast on that 6/30/2020 10:06 AM section of the street. I clicked the option of the 3-lane road being more dangerous in an earlier question because people speed on this road and don't pay attention. A 3-lane road is likely to cause congestion, driver frustration and possible driver distraction. But something has to be done about this section of the road. It needs massive improvement for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclist. Anonymous 6/30/2020 10:09 AM never had a problem Anonymous Traffic speeds seem to be okay.

Anonymous The problem heading south and turning left onto Rock or S. College is not whether you have a lane, it's not being able to see the fast oncoming northbound traffic coming around the curve until they are upon you. Perhaps the traffic signal should be here rather than at South Street. Anonymous The addition of the left turn lanes for 6/30/2020 11:21 AM be Hickey traveling South on College is a good idea. A series of stop lights with a turn signal similar to the 149 overpass over Wedington would be the best solution. It would make turning left off College much safer while also slowing traffic traveling downhill on Archibald Yell. Anonymous Needs to be a pedestrian light at at least one of the crosswalks. Anonymous People in Arkansas already don't know how to drive and don't know laws on the road. I think people will get confused. Anonymous As your driving north or south and 6/30/2020 11:43 AM you're on the inside lane the cars beside you fill to close. One lane would solve this. Anonymous It better aligns traffic flow entering westbound Rock from southbound College. It brings stop sign on northbound College onto more level ground at westbound Rock St. --at present, one must fight gravity if waiting at northbound College, to proceed forward on College while avoiding rapidly moving vehicles coming up Arch Yell. I think it may alleviate some of same problem (steep incline near top of hill) for people entering College from Page 33 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 eastbound Rock. Anonymous I think this will make it a safer 6/30/2020 11 :44 AM intersection for cars and pedestrians. Allowing no left turn will be very important. Only problem I have is with the possible cycling lanes I have heard proposed. Adding them to that intersection might be unsafe for them, unless you have a two way trail on the North/West side.

This city has made several improvements to the roadways that are nice but also some very poor ones as well that have to many dividers in the roads and obstacles that cause more accidents than if it had been left alone!

Please fix potholes before changing perfectly fine roads. Near the highway and MILK is dangerous. Anonymous I think there are too many issues with pedestrian crossing this area of the road. It is hard enough for drivers to get it straight. I would suggest pedestrian crossing be 1 block north at the stoplight, that would by far be the safest place. Too many exits and entrances for a safe crossing, especially with the steep incline of the area. Also the left turn off College onto S College is too narrow/sharp of a turn for a lot of the larger vehicles that take that route every day. Anonymous I don't see it as improvment 6/30/2020 01:47 PM Anonymous It's very hard to actually see what's 6/30/2020 01:52 PM planned in this picture. I am particularly concerned about bicycle paths. I see cyclists being stuck on an "island" southwest of Rock St at many times of day. Or having to make unwieldy maneuvers (as with many sidewalks in Fayetteville) which seem to have been developed in the belief that cyclists would get off their bikes and walk through obstacle courses designed with motor vehicles foremost in mind. In some European countries, motor vehicle traffic is triggered to stop by approaching cyclists who are min the bike path', and with an appropriate amount of time to do so. I would love to see this implemented all over the city. I would Page 37 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 further appreciate, as a cyclist, paths that "flow" instead of sudden jags in the path in different directions to better accommodate motor vehicles. As a motor vehicle driver, I have long felt that this series of turns needed to be slowed down because there are some that see them as a chance to play "NASCAR" or something. I'm glad something is being considered to remedy this, I just hope it is equally fair to cyclists AS VEHICLES, and doesn't see bicycle riders as a leisure -activity afterthought to the "serious business" of motor traffic.

Anonymous I couldn't add any improvements to 6/30/2020 02:49 PM your plan. Anonymous It's a confusing intersection on a 6/30/2020 03:03 PM inclined turn. Pedestrians need more safety than this. There are going to be cars southbound that will be in the left lane wanting to quickly move into the right lane in order to avoid the turn. They won't be looking for pedestrians when they do this, but in their mirrors to see if they can merge. Anonymous I like the additional crosswalks. It 6/30/2020 03:06 PM would also make it easier for those who aren't turning left on College or Rock to stay right along Archibald Yell without getting stuck in the left - turn traffic. Anonymous I do not agree with reducing the 6/30/2020 03:07 PM number of lanes freely flowing as this will impede the flow of traffic by creating a bottleneck. I also believe it is dangerous to funnel two lanes into one and place stoplights on a S shaped road also on a hill. Anonymous you need to consider that traffic is 6/30/2020 03:13 PM only going to increase. Reducing the number of lanes will ultimately Page 39 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 increase congestion, and this does nothing to alleviate that. Also, you should just close off rock street, as is done for mountain and center on the east side. There's no need to have two streets coming in perpendicular to each other that close to each other there. Anonymous Traffic stops for cars ahead of you to 6/30/2020 03:19 PM turn left on Rock St. and sometimes the northbound lanes have too fast traffic coming around the curve out of the blind spot the wall on the north side creates. Anonymous Was this meant as question 9? The 6/30/2020 03:2� design doesn't allow pedestrians coming from campus to easily cross to Penguin Eds/Crisis, which is where most pedestrian traffic comes from, the remainder people living on one side of AY and transversing on bike or foot towards campus. Anonymous More dangerous 6/30/2020 03:27 PM Anonymous I walk this area daily and find it 6/30/2020 03:47 PM would be more safe for those outside of vehicles. Anonymous It feels as if you're almost racing 6/30/2020 03:51 PM down the hill with the way the others drive down that road. Anonymous Well,lf I'm reading it correctly, you 6/30/2020 04:02 PM wont be able to access S. College driving southbound. Anonymous I'm not sure what is meant by bays, 6/30/2020 04:07 PM but if it means what I picture in my head I think it could be helpful. Anonymous I live close to this intersection and 6/30/2020 04:09 PM this proposed solution looks as though it would make it easier and safer to access the downtown area. Anonymous Yell doesn't have great drainage 6/30/2020 04:22 PM around the Pizza Hut area, so in wet Page 40 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 or icy conditions traffic tends to go around the curves too fast to feel safe. In optimal driving conditions, though, speeds don't seem as concerning. Anonymous Roundabout? 6/30/2020 04:42 PM Anonymous Roundabout 6/30/2020 04:42 PM Anonymous Most citizens of Fayetteville know the 6/30/2020 04:44 PM flow of this section of highway 71 and traffic doesn't get too bad. The most backed up traffic I experience is usually heading north when the lights slow drivers at Mountain St. Anonymous This still makes pedestrian crossing 6/30/2020 04:47 PM somewhat unsafe. Why can't this intersection be either simplified further or light protected. Anonymous Southbound to South College and 6/30/2020 05:10 PM northbound from Rock can be hairraising. Also, as a resident of S Block, I LOVE the idea that southbound folks would no longer be able to use S College as a cutthrough. Our neighborhoods have a lot of pedestrian activity. Anonymous A light is a better option. It will still be 6/30/2020 05:12 PM dangerous for pedestrians.

Anonymous I would like to see the 6/30/2020 05:37 PM comprehensive plan and be sure that the traffic moving south and east on College and Rock are slowed down as well and pedestrian crossings are part of the plan. Anonymous Great idea but will it funnel more traffic down Rock instead of S College? It will be nice to be able to cross safely on foot too. Anonymous There are too many stop lights, don't 6/30/2020 05:50 PM need 3 lanes Anonymous Because there is no stop signs cars 6/30/2020 06:05 PM speed through the turn Anonymous People regularly drive 50 mph. With 6/30/2020 06:05 PM narrow lanes and the curve, this makes driving sketchy. Anonymous Decreasing the lanes will not be a 6/30/2020 06:07 PM good idea, as US 71/Archibald Yell is a major thoroughfare in Fayetteville. Decreasing lanes will push more traffic onto other streets. Making a right turn lane from N.B. Archibald Yell to S.B. College Ave will be difficult due to the terrain. The E. Rock St part of the intersection will not be much better. There is already a sign on E. Rock St. prohibiting a left hand turn to S.B. Archibald Yell and S. College Ave. Adding any pedestrian crossing at this intersection is a deadly idea. Some of these ideas may work if this intersection is signalized. Anonymous This would make it easier to turn 6/30/2020 06:11 PM right off of rock st. Having turn lanes instead of two lanes would prevent hard breaking, lane changes, and getting cutoff by lane changes. I Page 42 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 believe the speed limit could be increased if reduced to single lanes with turn lanes. Anonymous My daughter lives on S. Church Ave 6/30/2020 06:12 PM next to Archibald Yell. Occasionally someone jumps the curb and lands near her house. I drive this road, and as all roads these days, some people drive too fast. Anonymous Feels like a good idea but I worry 6/30/2020 06:17 Pf/I now about the start of the three lane road. This will encourage zigzagging. Anonymous I drive and walk this area daily. 1 6/30/2020 06:33 PM approach it with trepidation regardless of my approach. People drive too fast, and no one can be sure what anyone else is doing. Anonymous The greenspace is pointless. Anonymous I always see high-speed traffic jukes 6/30/2020 06:35 PM to the right lane due to stopped cars waiting to turn left. The wait is so long that the traffic transforms to single lane (on the right). Opening the holler below to pedestrian traffic would improve QoL for folks down the hill; conversely, it may gentrify the neighborhood by providing uptown pedestrian access. You would want to preserve the historic black character of the neighborhood in that case (murals? Historical markers by the old church?) Also, which came first -- the holler or the Confederate cemetery? I wonder if the cemetery came later to "show who is in charge" and if so, we may need to contextualize the cemetery with, I don't know, another public marker. But that is another kettle of fish. Anonymous I can't remember the speed 6/30/2020 06:44 PM specifically, but when I drive it the Page 43 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 speed limit typically feels about right. Anonymous I think a traffic signal would be great 6/30/2020 06:45 PM at this intersection. Anonymous The intersection is a nightmare right 6/30/2020 06:57 PM now and from what I see, this will probably solve a lot of its problems. Realigning Rock St is a key element. Anonymous #8—The current speed limit seems 6/30/2020 06:57 PM right to me. #9-1 think left turns onto Archibald Yale from S. College and Rock are a problem, and this solution addresses that. Anonymous If you are trying to make a left going 6/30/2020 06:57 PM south at the problematic Rock st intersection you only have a few seconds before uphill oncoming traffic creates a conflict because they are generally going fast to begin with relative to the line of sight and curvature of the road. Also I cross as a pedestrian at that intersection several times per week (pre virus) and walk along the sidewalk up to the court house street crossing and it just feels unsafe there on that sidewalk given there is no separation and cars come up the hill accelerating trying to beat the red lights. Anonymous Because that is my opinion. Until my 6/30/2020 06:59 PM recent retirement I drove up S School to my office on South College nearly every weekday. I have never thought the traffic moved too slowly or to fast. Anonymous 6/30/2020 06:59 PM Add a light for saftey of left turn lane drivers Anonymous Trying to converge into single lanes 6/30/2020 07:13 PM coming from either direction will cause major congestion and likely be more dangerous than the current layout. Only change (if any) that will Page 44 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 work is maintain 4 lanes of traffic and adding a turning lane. Anonymous The addition of 2 crosswalks is very 6/30/2020 07:18 PM helpful since the next closest crosswalk is at Center St to the north, or MLK to the South. Also, turning south onto Archibald from Rock is near impossible at times due to the speed of traffic coming in the northbound lane. The slower traffic and further north intersection will improve visibility and safety. Anonymous I feel that the pedestrian crossings 6/30/2020 07:18 PM could be working in without a lane reduction. I'm also not seeing any indication that these will be signalized pedestrian crossings. I think a better solution would be to signalize that intersection and leave the lane configuration as -is. Anonymous I'm not sure what the speed limit is. 1 6/30/2020 07:31 PM just know I often feel like there are close calls Anonymous Right now it feels very dangerous both when I'm coming north on college to turn onto Archibald Yell and also when I am going south on college and and want to take a left on college down the hill rather than continue on Archibald yell. So I feel that some type of changes need to be made. I also feel like making it more safe will make walking that area much easier as well.

I think the proposal would create more issues & accidents than it would solve. Anonymous I'm still unclear about the change to 6/30/2020 08:44 PM three lanes how that will lot cause congestion especially when the traffic backs up at the MILK light. The main issue is this left turn at College that is dangerous. I don't find the four lanes to be a problem in speed or congestion since you can easily switch lanes. There should be a five lane plan if there are serious changes to be made. Anonymous I live on south college ave, 6/30/2020 08:59 PM consequently I am up and down south college and archibald yell several times a day I have never had a problem with a left turn off archibald yell onto south college ave.

Water flows directly onto the archibald from the side streets. Page 46 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Very bad drainage. Anonymous If you follow the actual posted speed 6/30/2020 09:18 PM limit, it's too fast to react for turning motorists. However, going slower up that hill is a huge nuisance. And most people can't seem to stay in their lane throughout the curves no matter which direction. Anonymous I'm not a fan of decreasing Archibald 6/30/2020 09:46 PM Yell to three lanes. I do like the turn lane from College Ave. onto College Ave. The changes proposed to Rock Street are excellent. That has always been a dangerous intersection. Anonymous I like the lane reductions and 6/30/2020 09:51 PM restricted turns. But the very close left turns at Rock/College when travelling south remind me of the nightmare of the two immediate left turns at the two lights when going west on Wedington at 149 and Shiloh. That's a dangerous nightmare and there has to be a better solution here. No left turn from 71 going north onto Rock is annoying but I guess that's probably unavoidable. Anonymous I think the southernmost pedestrian crossing is redundant and inconvenient. I think it would be better traffic -wise to have one that crosses S. College a safe distance from the intersection if one is needed to access that area. Anonymous There will be major problems when 6/30/2020 09:58 PM vehicle traveling northbound along Archibald Yell needs to take a right and head east on E. Rock. This will entirely log jam Archibald Yell northbound traffic and potentially cause a crash when said vehicle tries to turn right onto East Rock and gets hit by a car flying up College and not slowing down because they have a dedicated merge lane. This is the biggest issue with this concept plan. Page 47 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 E. Rock should potentially become a one way street only heading west OR you put a traffic signal that stops northbound College and Arch Yell traffic and gives vehicles heading southbound and wishing to turn left onto E. Rock a protected turn. Anonymous Not conceptually getting it a bigger 6/30/2020 10:00 PM view of the map would help. Anonymous There is no need for two pedestrian 6/30/2020 10:01 PM walkways, the one across archibald yell would be enough for this purpose if the bike trail is extended. The moving of rock street is a little confusing, but I could see it working if there's a need for drainage or something. I love a good green space though! It would be a good spot for a small picnic/lunch area especially with some endemic plants and a few benches: walking distance from homes, several restaurants, and many businesses around the square and courthouse. Anonymous 6/30/2020 10:09 PM I haven't gone over the speed limit nor did I have to go slower Anonymous It always feels dangerous when either continuing north on college after stop sign, or making a slight left to continue south on to collegr Anonymous 8. the bends in the road slow people 6/30/2020 11:01 PM down as they go down the hill. 9. making one lane roads will bottleneck southbound traffic off of college.

This does no pedestrians any favors. Anything to slow down traffic is good. Anonymous It will cause congestion and be very 7/01/2020 05:05 AM unsafe. It will be confusing to visitors and anyone who drives the road infrequently. Drivers will speed up to try and move into the one lane going south.

College. My only concern is, does this improve visibility with this Page 49 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 alignment when headed south and turning left off of College onto these streets. Sometimes it is difficult to see the often fast oncoming traffic, especially when there are cars continuing to move forward past you on your right, blocking visibility. Overall, this is a great improvement, love the crosswalks! Anonymous This is a major N. South Corredor 7/01/2020 06:31 AM Rd. and other forms of transportation such as walking or biking could/should be moved to secondary roads. I'm all for making our city more walkable, but not at the expense of heating traffic. With the multi family units going up in South Fayetteville this does not seem prudent. Anonymous It is hard to turn right off Rock St 7/01/2020 06:35 AM because traffic comes up the hill so fast. Anonymous Vehicles speed up the hill/incline on 7/01/2020 06:39 AM Archibald and also do not safely maintain their travel lanes, typically driving over into the lane next to their vehicle. Anonymous I simply believe it to be a matter of 7/01/2020 06:43 AM fact for traffic both north and south Anonymous The median barriers are confusing 7/01/2020 06:46 AM and an aggravation. Anonymous Would likely create improved safety 7/01/2020 06:47 AM but also create bottlenecks on both directions as you lose a lane of traffic flow. Anonymous It pretty much addresses all my concerns.

Putting in a stop light with a left turn lane would solve the problem for pedestrians. Narrowing it down to 3 lanes would cause more congestion at peak times. Anonymous The speed is okay. Anonymous I drive a full size SUV, and it is 7/01/2020 07:47 AM always nerve wracking to have someone driving next to me on Archibald Yell because people speed and don't always stay in their lane. If a pedestrian needs to cross, cars are going too quickly to keep an eye out and stop in a safe timeframe. Anonymous I take this intersection every day, and 7/01/2020 07:48 AM anything we can do to make it safer is wonderful. I think having the slightly angled turns onto College will make drivers take more of a pause to check for oncoming traffic and pedestrians. Anonymous I think you mean question #9 so 7/01/2020 07:56 AM that's how I will answer. I like the southbound left turn on Rock redesign. I'm not so sure about the southbound left turn on S College unless you are thinking of a light there which would help with both left turns and right turns there. I don't like the 3 lane idea. Anonymous Love the medians and the breaking 7/01/2020 07:56 AM of the turning movements. However, breaking up the intersections looks like it could cause more confusion to unfamiliar drivers. I do like the redirect Rock St on the eastern side (bottom of map). Anonymous Did you mean question 9 above? I'm 7/01/2020 08:06 AM not clear if this intersection is signalized or not. Pedestrian crossing would still be hard/impossible if not.

Anonymous When I drove this everyday I always felt traffic was going too fast considering the topography. And I wouldn't dare try to WALK across it! It feels like more than just a physical barrier in our community. Please see this project through. My neighbors and I have waiting an awfully long time. Anonymous How in the world is reducing the lanes to a single lane on each side going to make this safer? You might make it 'safer' for pedestrians and bikers but you're making it much more dangerous and frustrating for drivers. The only pedestrians I even see around here are the homeless people, and they're usually at the corner of School and MLK, using the stoplight and crosswalk to cross, as they should. This project smells just like the garbage one on Rolling Hills and whoever is responsible for these shitty initiatives needs to be fired. You're making it miserable to drive a car in Fayetteville, which like it or not, is still the main way the majority of people travel. Page 54 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous Why not close off S College Ave at 7/01/2020 12:40 PM the intersection with AY? Connection to AY could be made via South St or MILK Anonymous Looks very conventional. Zebra Crossing (with flashing lights) for pedestrians would be an improvement - not a stop light. Will the city maintain the greenspace? Roundabout would provide better traffic flow. Turn lane is not needed for the entire length (eg. between Block and College). Where there is no need to turn, keep it two lanes. Allocate space to greenspace or wider sidewalks/bike lanes. Don't overbuild roads. It benefits no one except the folks who sell asphalt. And costs taxpayers money. Anonymous That intersection is a damn mess and 7/01/2020 01:25 PM if we're not putting a light there, that's a better solution than any else I've seen.

There isn't however, any accommodation for pedestrians, especially at the Rock/S College/AYBlvd intersection, and even with the proposed changes which look like they will be helpful, I think we need an overpass walking bridge for foot, bike and other traffic. Anonymous There needs to be a light here or 7/01/2020 05:27 PM either rock or college should Not have access to 71. The current proposal does not solve the problem (who has right of way) and as a frequent pedestrian in this area there is no way I would use that crosswalk without a light. Finally, closing down 71 to one lane is going to cause massive traffic problems and cause more commuters to use side streets, which endangers residents and pedestrians even more. Anonymous Regularly there are cars in both lanes 7/01/2020 05:28 PM driving the same speed and skiing down traffic instead of moving to the right.

Don't mess up another intersection with ridiculously narrow turns and twists. It is obvious these designs come off paper and no one at City Hall ever drives them once they are completed. Anonymous The intersection is dangerous when 7/01/2020 06:36 PM ther is lots of traffic. Anonymous I assume you are asking why 1 7/01/2020 06:54 PM answered question 9 (not 8) how I did. I believe the intersection needs a signal if it is going to provide pedestrian crossing. At the very least, it should have a pedestrian push button signal. Alternatively, you could make a roundabout at this intersection that slows traffic and allows pedestrian crossing more easily. Anonymous I'm a field service technician for Cox. 7/01/2020 08:07 PM I drive this route in every direction. I have no issues with how it is. Anonymous 7/01/2020 08:11 PM Because Anonymous Going from 4 lanes of traffic down to 7/01/2020 08:27 PM 2 is going to add more congestion and confusion. Also, my main concern with this intersection is trying to turn left onto rock from College (going south). Often times drivers coming up do not yield to people turning left.

The cars are moving too fast on Archibald yell and you can't see them until they are too close. Anonymous It's often very hard to turn left Going south or right off of College Avenue going west Anonymous I turn off College onto Rock or remain 7/02/2020 07:32 AM on College to get home from work or to return from errands; I often find the turn challenging because of the speed of northbound commuters on Yell OR because northbound commuters at the stop sign on College do not allow me the right of way turning off College and instead gun it to get onto northbound College. The solution proposed above adroitly eliminates both concerns. Yes, it could create delays at peak traffic times but those delays currently exist and the proposal given above creates more safety and constrains traffic and hopefully reduces speeds. I do want clear marking at northbound College that clarifies those turning off College onto Rock have the right-of-way. I also would like not just a zebra pedestrian crossing but a lit crossing that safely allows pedestrians to cross College/Yell. There's no point creating these changes if the crossings remain perilous. Anonymous I like the idea of the dedicated lanes 7/02/2020 08:39 AM entering college. I think it will be easier to navigate and offer less confusion. However, I worry about the pedestrian crossing - will there be traffic signals? And I worry about the lack of accessibility to southboud Archibald Yell. Page 58 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous I think ground level crossing with or 7/02/2020 08:48 AM without a light will result in pedestrian accidents and possible fatalities. Left turn restrictions are a good idea but how will they be enforced? People in Fayetteville ignore no left from FHS and Walmart on Weddington all the time. The habits will be hard to change without a physical barrier. Anonymous Generally the flow is fine unless 7/02/2020 09:09 AM someone is making a left turn in front of you.

Anonymous I go North on to Archibald from S. 7/02/2020 09:19 AM College every morning Monday to Friday. I yield to cars turning left either to Rock St. or to S. College because you don't know which way they go so separating the turns will be much safer. Anonymous There needs to be some sort of turn 7/02/2020 09:23 AM lane for south -bound traffic turning left onto College or Rock. Anonymous slower speeds is more conducive to 7/02/2020 09:41 AM the pedestrian and bicycle traffic without having to reduce vehicular road access Anonymous This is a dangerous and often congested intersection. This plan would slow traffic a little, funnel vehicles that are continuing south into the right lane and provide a left turn lane for vehicles turning east (kind of what people who know the intersection already do). Also, it provides a pedestrian crossing, which has always been a dangerous and terrifying experience along the entirety of Archibald Yell. Page 59 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous People too often take the straight aways to fast and then have to brake rapidly causing unsafe driving conditions. Anonymous There needs to be a light. It's a very dangerous intersection because people traveling south on College turn on their blinker when they are going to make a hard left on Rock AND/OR if they are just veering to the left to continue south on College. This makes it super dangerous to merge on to A.Y. if you are traveling north up the hill on College. There is also a significant blind spot if you are traveling south on College due to the curve of A.Y., you can't see whose flying around that curve when you are turning left, either to go on Rock or College. I have to use that intersection everyday and I am certain one day I will be in an accident there due to the two main concerns listed above. Make a wider sidewalk, that's fine. But this intersection needs a light or needs to not have the option to go left down College. Close that street off to southbound traffic from that intersection if you want to decrease driving lanes and add pedestrian lanes. A light is what is needed here. 100%. Please. Anonymous I think that traffic speeds are ok 7/02/2020 12:03 PM along Archibald Yell. My issue is turning left onto Block from Archibald Yell. The lack of turning lanes is scary. The idea of parallel parking on Archibald Yell is not a good idea. Anonymous Green space can confuse some 7/02/2020 12:09 PM drivers and impede the flow of traffic in an intersection environment Anonymous Because I'm on it nearly everyday and people generally treat it like the Audubon...

The turn out of Rock street should have substantial curbs to force a right turn, see Neighborhood Market and Casey's on MLK. Anonymous 7/02/2020 01:28 PM This seems confusing - I think a light would be best Anonymous I believe the design addresses traffic 7/02/2020 01:56 PM issues and creates a much needed pedestrian crossing Anonymous I haven't had issues here before and 7/02/2020 02:03 PM have never seen pedestrians at this point. Anonymous I have traveled this route for 17 7/02/2020 02:10 PM years. I rarely see bikes or pedestrians. But I have seen busy traffic using all four lanes at many times of day. I think it would be catastrophic to narrow the existing four lanes to three. All of the choices in question 11 below are BAD choices. Anonymous As long as North bound Rock St has 7/02/2020 03:28 PM an unobstructed view of northbound College traffic. Le no landscaping that could block line of site. Anonymous With the curves of the road, it's hard 7/02/2020 04:00 PM to avoid running into the next lane at higher speeds. Also, it's a concern that someone will change lanes. Anonymous I think more people drive down AY 7/02/2020 04:35 PM than turn onto S School, so it would be a bit of a scramble as it reduces to one lane and not accidentally get stuck in the left only.

Rarely do I see anyone trying to cross the road. My son lives on 5th Street in that area too. He walks a lot. He works in Center Street. He has no problems crossing. He even said it will be more difficult crossing with a single lane because traffic will be more backed up. There are more people moving here every day ... why give up lanes for cars??? Anonymous I have to "continue" on s. College 7/02/2020 08:06 PM frequently, I like the inclusion of a dedicated turn lane for this.

Why not make Rock street one way only, back towards downtown? Anonymous the s.bound college st., left turn causes cars to back up and cars continuing S. try to swerve to the right lane to avoid stopping. my experience is that most drivers wait until the last to use turning signals.

The lack of Page 62 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 properly banked curves also makes the driving feel faster than it really is. Straightening the street might do as much as anything to reduce speed. Anonymous Because traffic goes across all lanes 7/04/2020 07:54 AM on that sharp bend. Anonymous Answer to #8 is a pretty clear 7/04/2020 01:27 PM answer, no need for explanation. Anonymous Entire intersection needs to be 7/04/2020 01:27 PM signalized! The proposed left hand turn lane on Southbound Yell to Southbound College is too short, coming after Southbound Yell to Eastbound Rock left turn lane, creating the same congestion issue as is on Westbound Wedington west of 1-49: Interstate entrance ramp left turn/N. Shiloh Rd. left turn. Most of the current unsafe conditions at Yell/College/Rock can and should be solved with traffic light signalization. Without signalization at this 5-way danger zone, pedestrian traffic will still be/feel/look unsafe. Stop wasting money on solutions that do not prioritize signalization at this 5-way confluence. Anonymous It needs to have a traffic light! The 7/04/2020 02:31 PM proposed left hand turn lane from College/Yell going to South College is too short and will cause the type of problems that happen at Wedington and 1-49 (Interstate entrance ramp/N. Shiloh Rd.), backing up traffic in the passing right lane while waiting on traffic to get into the proposed left turning lane. I also think the Northbound traffic on South College will still have to dangerously look over their shoulder for speeding traffic coming north up Yell. And now you all want to add pedestrians into the mix?! Yes, pedestrians and bicyclists need to be able to cross Page 63 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 there but there has to be a traffic light to make this intersection safe. Also in reference to #12, 1 have lived on S Church St for 5 years and my parents still live there. I have always made a left turn heading Northbound on Yell from South Street. This is a very dangerous turn as there is a blind spot to speeding Northbound traffic on Yell. This forces the majority of those neighborhoods to go north though the square or Dickson St, to use a traffic light intersection to make a left. This becomes more problematic when the farmers market is open and there is an increase of pedestrians and traffic on Mountain and Center Street. So I feel that a traffic light there is also for the safety of traffic, not only pedestrian safety. But if Yell is only 3 lanes and the light at that intersection has no left hand turn lane or a protect left hand turn signal, it is likely that it will cause congestion. For example, the congestion on Northbound College at the Center Street intersection, which seemingly could be solved by the Northbound traffic on College having the green light for the first 20/30 seconds, for people to turn left onto Center thus clear up congestion on College. Thank you! Anonymous I feel that traffic flow on AY is similar 7/04/2020 04:30 PM to most other major arteries in Fayetteville Anonymous I think 25 mph is a fine speed. 7/05/2020 02:10 PM Anonymous I often have to change lanes going 7/05/2020 03:52 PM south on College for cars turning left at Rock.

Anonymous Blind curves on Archibald Yell and 7/07/2020 05:40 PM steep inclines on northbound College and westbound Rock call for reduced speeds. Anonymous There are multiple places on college 7/07/2020 07:2r that don't have turn lanes. I can tell you south bound traffic backs up all the way past the second turn at 5 o'clock already. If you makes this one lane it will be a huge problem. Money needs to be spent on beautification the same exact way it was in front of lacuna, etc. there are much more dangerous places on college that do not have turn lanes. Quit trying to be hero's and finish the same the look to MLK. Make a crossing If you feel it is necessary at Locust and south but quit making a mountain out of a mole hill.

Eric Henretty Speed seems adequate with current 7/23/2020 09:58 AM lanes, however a turning lane still jams uphill traffic into one lane all the time currently it only happens if someone turns from the left or right lane. So if someone turns to the right we'll be stuck completely Anonymous the no left onto achibald yell is 7/24/2020 10:20 AM unique to the downtown area and has potential to confuse drivers. though, i understand the reasoning behind it, and as a lay person cannot propose a better alternative. Anonymous I have studied this intersection as 7/25/2020 08:38 PM part of projects before and have looked at what might work. My training is in landscape architecture so I am familiar with some traffic best practices. The road as it is is not conducive to non-vehicukar traffic and this design creates better flows with reduced vehicular speeds. Anonymous 1) There's no way to turn south from 7/29/2020 08:02 PM E Rock or from S College onto Archibald Yell and no easy way to proceed north then turn around to head back south. It would greatly increase traffic through the residential areas south of Archibald Yell as drivers try to figure out how to get to MILK from the East side of AY. All Page 68 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 the one way streets around the square further complicate the issue. 2) That proposed intersection area is already a congested choke point and if traffic is reduced to only two lanes at that spot, Archibald Yell will back up way north of the Square, probably all the way up to Dickson or Lafayette during rush hour, clogging up traffic flow in the whole area. 3) AY is MUCH too busy as a feeder street to MLK then 1-49 to make it only two lanes. I agree that something needs to be done to help folks cross AY safely and maybe just putting a signal in somewhere in the curves would help, but I think the best solution is a pedestrian / bicycle bridge or tunnel for the humans outside of cars. Anonymous Prevent left turns... turning left across 8/11/2020 10:38 AM 71 B anywhere is a crazy idea.

It seems more need to cross either north of there or south of there where there are more businesses. Anonymous An on -demand traffic signal with well - marked crosswalk for pedestrian crossing (like at bike trail etc.) would be great; but not a traffic signal that Page 76 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 cycled mindlessly regardless of need. Anonymous Same as we have for the rest of the 6/30/2020 11 :56 AM greenway where it signals pedestrians who need to cross, but isn't a traffic signal. There are plenty of traffic signals around as is and it takes 20 minutes to get from Mission/Crossover to Wedington on a good day. Anonymous Maybe a crossing like the trail crossings, where pedestrians can request to cross when present but otherwise it isn't stopping cars when no one is present. Anonymous 6/30/2020 12:02 PM Anonymous 6/30/2020 12:16 PM I feel a pedestrian/bike operated traffic signal would be a better solution than a traditional traffic signal. Roundabout Anonymous A pedestrian signal like the one on 6/30/2020 12:23 PM North Street between Greg and Garland would be preferable. Anonymous A crosswalk signal that stops traffic 6/30/2020 12:39 PM like the one on college near Rebecca St. Anonymous A pedestrian bridge would be preferable.

Maybe a pedestrian overpass (bridge crosswalk) or have them walk the short bit up to the stoplight north that already exists to cross the road. Page 77 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous Again, I think pedestrian bridges 6/30/2020 02:06 PM could be helpful. Traffic needs to flow smoothly and efficiently north and south. Why take a major north/south road and slow it down. I can only imagine the traffic nightmares on busy college weekends. I would not want to feel like I had to use the interstate to get through town. Anonymous Trail like crossings activated by 6/30/2020 02:38 PM pedestrian Anonymous I think there should be an overhead 6/30/2020 02:57 PM bridge there for pedestrians to cross on. Anonymous Focus pedestrian crossing with a 6/30/2020 03:03 PM dedicated light here rather than crossing farther up at Rock street & college where there are multiple roads intersecting on a curve. OR, create dedicated path to cross College to the north at the east Mtn St intersection. Anonymous 6/30/2020 03:13 PM pedestrian bridge Anonymous Overhead crosswalks like in larger cities! The less a pedestrian has to be physically on the road the better, and bikers should have to use them as well if their line of travel deems it necessary. Overhead ped/biker crosswalk/bridges would be good in several areas of town. Anonymous I feel that this area is already unsafe 6/30/2020 05:10 PM and congested and the proposed changes will be more confusing for those who don't frequent the area or are from out of town. This area is so close to MAJOR venues and I cannot imagine thia road as a 3 lane during those times. While I agree that pedestrian safety is a concern here, I wonder could a pedestrian/bicycle bridge be constructed such as they Page 78 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 have in bigger cities.

Anonymous A greenway crossing such as the one 6/30/2020 06:11 PM on south school. Anonymous Maybe a walkway that goes over 6/30/2020 06:17 PM traffic would be better Anonymous Maybe a traffic light like the ones off 6/30/2020 06:44 PM of the green way where they turn when someone is seeking to cross the street. Anonymous I think a light that would be activated 6/30/2020 06:59 PM by a pedistrian needing to cross would handle the matter without unnecessarily slowing traffic. There is not enough cross traffic at South Street for vehicles to need a signal but a crosswalk and a light that would stop traffic only when needed would work. Anonymous Crosswalk with a light similar to what 6/30/2020 07:13 PM was put in crossing College by Rebecca St. Anonymous 6/30/2020 09:11 PM Anonymous 6/30/2020 09:53 PM bridge over the road. It would be awesome!! An underpass could be good for pedestrians and future bike trail expansion! Anonymous Adding a pedestrian crossing cycle to the normal light cycle would be a good idea. If a pedestrian hits the button, it adds the pedestrian Page 79 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 crossing to the cycle, if not the cycle continues as normal. Having people wait for a red light to cross would allow a gap for not only pedestrians but those merging up the hill from college. Having pedestrians wait and cross as a group would be safer since it's a curve at the top of a hill and a bit of a blind spot; people can drive kinda recklessly around that curve. Most people coming up Archibald Yell accelerate by the B&B and it makes me worry for anyone who would cross without waiting for the signal or hitting the button. It's much more expensive, but digging a pedestrian tunnel from college under archibald yell would keep people safe and allow access and could be incorporated into future bike trail expansions. Anonymous I don't know if there is enough pedestrian traffic to warrant a light, but if there is then a light is appropriate.

Anonymous I see drivers confused by the 7/01/2020 09:11 AM pedestrian crossing light on college. But they seem to do well with the one on north. The raised bump may help Anonymous HAWK signal would be my preferred solution.

There are already a lot of lights in that area. I cannot imagine the average cyclist riding up the S curves of 71 B. If I was coming from the neighborhood, I would ride up College not the highway.

Could you do a bridge or tunnel over/under the road? Anonymous I think a pedestrian bridge is a 7/02/2020 08:48 AM perfect solution. No risk of running lights, blind corners, no impeding traffic flow, no difficult uphill starts for low power vehicles and bikes. MAX safety for crossing. Anonymous allow for a dedicated right turn lane 7/02/2020 09:41 AM from S School onto MLK, starting at S School. The bottle neck is at S School and MLK and unless you eliminate that bottleneck, anything else north of there won't be as effective. place a Hawke or on - demand crossing somewhere in the stretch with offset additional lights on either side to warn moving traffic of change in signal, to prepare them to stop at the appointed light - removing line of sight issues for the driver to see the upcoming signal light. Anonymous I don't see this location as the best 7/02/2020 12:02 PM crossing spot for pedestrians along this route. A traffic light will add congestion at the top of the hill. How is the intersection at MLK going to handle the congestion that will be created by vehicles merging out of 2 lanes to go 3 different ways at an already very busy, congested intersection most of the day? Trucks and fire engines already use two lanes when turning onto S.

Please stop adding stop lights... Add early left turns & early right turns (turns that happen before the intersection), round-abouts, or if the need is pedestrian, add a signaled cross walk like on Old Wire & a bit further south on 71 B where the greenway trail crosses.

Anonymous 6/29/2020 02:26 PM No turn lane makes it scary, especially trying to turn left. Anonymous Many problems exist with this stretch 6/29/2020 02:32 PM of road. The worst issue is the inability to anticipate activities of other drivers. When a vehicle is northbound on college, and another vehicle is westbound on Rock St., there is a lot of confusion. The vehicles must watch each other and 4 lanes of traffic, particularly if either driver is trying to cross all four lanes to continue westbound on Rock St. There are vehicles northbound on college that try to turn left onto college, while trying to gauge. Another issue is the inability to turn left onto Archibald Yell. Due to the multiple lanes of traffic and congestion on Martin Luther King, anyone attempting to turn left (headed north) onto Archibald Yell will back traffic up and potentially cause an accident.

Anonymous The lane is too narrow and I feel like I hit the curb too much when going down the hill when I'm in the far right lane. It's also frustrating when you Page 132 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 are trying to come down the hill and people don't use their turn signals and suddenly stop to turn onto Rock. Anonymous Speed. Cruves are sharp. To much side by side traffic. Having at stop for vehiles turning left or right in the middle section of this road. Anonymous I must admit it is hard not to fly down that hill as if you're on a carnival ride, especially after making it through the gauntlet of traffic lights (timed or not) on College. I try to avoid high -traffic times but still find it nerve wracking going down that hill if there is a vehicle on my tail or right beside me. There's no room for error should someone have a tire blow out or otherwise lose control of vehicle. Alternatively, I often (not during heavy library construction however!) turn left from northbound AY to get onto northbound School St. and navigating across the swarm of mad hornets zooming down AY can be challenging. I have not experienced the same sense of danger when going uphill northbound on AY -- though one can get their slalom on pretty good. I suspect taking away the option of lane switching to straighten the path (guilty as charged!) by making it 3 lane with center for turns only, WELL MARKED WITH STRIPING AND ARROWS ETC!! will cause traffic to slow down in both directions. Remove lane changing and passing, then add a crosswalk --these are all things that require more immediate attention by the motorist to stay in his lane and behave. This means less temptation to cut loose and fly down (or charge up) that hill. This makes it more safe for everyone, but slightly less fun (boo hoo) for the motorist seeking an adrenalin hit.

Anonymous I would turn left onto South to get to 4th Street, always wondering if the car behind me would be paying attention enough to not run into the back of my vehicle. With the high speeds that drivers use going through that intersection, I am honestly surprised there haven't been more accidents. Also, from my front porch, I have seen many accidents as people travel the curves going north. I think people don't anticipate the angle and slow down just a little. I have also seen people cross the double lines around the curves because they are going to fast. Anonymous Aggressive braking and acceleration leads to having to rapidly change lanes. Anonymous There needs to be a light. It's a very dangerous intersection because people traveling south on College turn on their blinker when they are going to make a hard left on Rock AND/OR if they are just veering to the left to continue south on College. This makes it super dangerous to merge on to A.Y. if you are traveling north up the hill on College. There is also a significant blind spot if you are traveling south on College due to the Page 152 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 curve of A.Y., you can't see whose flying around that curve when you are turning left, either to go on Rock or College. I have to use that intersection everyday and I am certain one day I will be in an accident there due to the two main concerns listed above. Make a wider sidewalk, that's fine. But this intersection needs a light or needs to not have the option to go left down College. Close that street off to southbound traffic from that intersection if you want to decrease driving lanes and add pedestrian lanes. A light is what is needed here. 100%. Please.

Anonymous what you've listed here looks great, 6/29/2020 07:20 PM slowing down traffic, and potentially offering parking would be great for the businesses along that road Anonymous I'd prefer S School be continuous as 6/29/2020 07:25 PM the primary route into the City center from the South end. Anonymous See above. tl;dr: 4-way stoplight at 6/29/2020 07:29 PM AY and Rock. COPIED: There are a number of issues with this proposal. The ONLY way to effective mitigate this intersection is a stop light. You should remove the light at Mountain Street to maintain better flow. 1) The placement of crosswalks at nearly the top and the top of Archibald Yell (AY) is EXTREMELY dangerous. There is very little foot traffic here to begin with, and without a stop light, this would just add to the confusion and danger for pedestrians. 2) There is no need need for a dedicated right - turn lane from northbound AY onto southbound S. College Ave. If people want that stretch of road, they may and do continue eastbound on MILK and turn right onto that stretch of S. College. That should be NO right - turn, if anything. Then you could effectively make that section of S. School ONE-WAY ONLY, northbound. That would make the intersection a 4-way with AY and Rock in both directions. People northbound on AY could make a right turn on Rock or continue straight. People on Rock could effectively then be allowed to travel in both directions. AFTER that intersection, heading north on College is where the road should be reduced to three lanes, with a dedicated center turn lane.

When we ride bikes, we avoid such a busy road and instead take College south to MLK. I think that intersection, of College and Archibald Yell, could significantly benefit from the proposed changes, but I don't know that South Street is the right place to make other changes. Even with a Page 177 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 pedestrian light, I might be scared to cross AY at South because the road is so curvy, there are potentially blind spots for distracted drivers.

Also better pedestrian access. The little staircases are charming, please try to keep them. I ride a bicycle but I have never attempted it there because I want to live. Even if Archibald Yell was a more direct route I wouldn't risk it on 2 wheels Anonymous I would change the lanes from 4 to 3 6/30/2020 10:55 AM & use the excess space for a pedestrian/bike friendly path with a separation barrier between the pedestrian & the vehicles. The current sidewalk isn't sufficient enough & I can tell you right now that a minimal number of people use it (I live on South Street). Currently, if I do spot a pedestrian on the sidewalk, I also make sure to switch lanes so I'm not driving right next to them. I would make sure to have pedestrian stop signs at all street crossings (e.g. Penguin Ed's) to halt the pedestrian while ensuring the vehicle traffic on Archibald Yell continues. The concrete barrier north of the street plus the presence of the vehicles doesn't create a pleasant experience for anyone traveling by foot/bike. Covering that in some sort of noise reducer (like ivy or some sort of art project) would be beneficial. Also, I Page 178 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 ask that the city of Fayetteville discuss the future of the car lot right off of Locust Street/Archibald Yell (across from NAPA) as it proves difficult for cars turning right onto Archibald Yell. I can't see incoming traffic when turning from that street. Please consider addressing the lanes on College Ave in the downtown area as well. Having 4 lanes with no designated turn lane causes traffic congestion. Thanks y'all. I appreciate what you do for the city.

Change the speed limit, add more space for pedestrians and bicycles. Anonymous I would not go to three lanes. One of the issues with that would be game weekends or events like BB&B where it is already crazy busy there that fewer lanes would make it much worse. I would make sure there are safe pedestrian sidewalks with a bit of separation or barrier from the road, and add a well marked walk light type pedestrian crosswalk wherever the traffic lights are. Also beautification with landscaping. Anonymous A turn signal at the north end will slow traffic going down the hill and make the road safer Page 179 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous I like the idea of dropping it to 2 lanes with a turn lane in the middle. I feel like the turn lane should be useable for both north and south traffic. Anonymous I think when you are going south on College, when you are approaching Center St., the right lane should be a "right turn only" lane, that way the traffic doesn't need to merge when it goes down to only one lane. Anonymous Unforutatly not Anonymous Myself included, we all must slow down on that tempting curly-q hill. If taking away one lane will help, I'm all for it. However, this makes 4 lanes of traffic on traffic -light -rich, straight - and -mostly -level College squeeze down to 2 lanes of steep and twisty, with a turn lane between them. If only one lane continues south from Rock down the hill, traffic could pile up in that right hand lane in southbound College during high traffic times. I have not seen traffic pile up the same way going north on AY --but I do not drive this route during rush hour. Adding an on - demand crosswalk at South would certainly help make this part of town more walkable. Just the presence of a crosswalk, even if it's not occupied, might cause drivers to slow down a bit as it shifts the psychology of this stretch of road away from "open frontier" to "people sometimes cross here." A flashing yellow light well in advance of the on -demand red would give drivers no excuse to continue careening down the hill. I would like to see bicycle friendly lane also --if must be shared with pedestrians, there is potential for conflict because bicyclists enjoy a fast ride downhill Page 180 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 too. But maybe we're grownup enough to respect each other and not collide, you reckon? Pedestrians should ALWAYS have the right of way, especially if their back was to the bicycle.

College and Rock St. Anonymous Crosswalk at Prairie and School Anonymous Most of our roads need a complete redesign as our urban sprawl has made for some inefficient traffic patterns.

In other words, a motor vehicle isn't made to be sitting at a stop light at 10pm, or any time, for no reason at all. The pedestrian/cyclists should not have to push a button and then wait interminably (as as the North St trail crossing) for the light to change.

Why South St.? Anonymous This has potential to be such a great 6/30/2020 06:57 PM mixed use thoroughfare , something like a'boulevard into downtown Fayetteville' . If we put in pedestrian and bicycling infrastructure it will be greatly used because there is so much latent unmet demand here for those modalities, which in turn will help connect South Fayetteville to the whole and create a more cohesive urban environment. I highly advocate for a row of trees on both sides as well.

This would help calm traffic and reconnect the square, the library, and the Page 189 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 greenway with the diverse neighborhoods to the east and south of Archibald Yell. As for Archibald Yell itself, I'm strongly in favor of reducing to 3 lanes, as well as other traffic -calming design --including street trees, tightening the radius of curves, and narrowing the lanes. I'd encourage a less -is -more approach to the designs. Rather than adding tons of bulky hardscaping like the recent redesign of Old Wire, keep the edges simpler and more adaptable as uses and needs evolve. (For example, on -street parking is probably not a need now, but if more development occurs we probably will want to add it, rather than encouraging more strip mall -style lots.)

Honestly, if I were queen of Fayetteville for a day, I would do the opposite of what we did in the 50s, tear that road up, and put the grid back in. But that's wishful thinking. This road is in the heart of our city. I don't have any specific thoughts, just this: make it hospitable for people, not cars.

So neighborhoods south are more connected to neighborhood north and to the Square. Only issue with reducing lanes is it might really increase congestion as this is the only true north -south thoroughfare for East Fayetteville outside of Crossover and 1-49.

Anonymous None as long as it stays the way it is. 6/29/2020 02:14 PM I'm tired of everyplace in this town being geared for younger people, walking or biking and not the populace at large from not only Fayetteville but also many surrounding areas. Quite frankly you're making traffic worse not better. Stop with catering to the few who think we all should walk or ride a bike. Guess what ... many of us can't. I personally have already stopped going to the downtown area and spending $$ there because all the urbanization.

This road is dangerous 6/30/2020 01:52 PM to cycle on. I use my motor vehicle more frequently than my bicycle somewhat *because* of the challenges of getting around the city by bike. Also because of lack of truly secure places to lock and leave my bike. When I went to vote, by bike, I found that the Fayetteville courthouse bike racks were at the extreme outskirts of the parking lot, and not within sight -lines or outdoor camera view of the courthouse. Like many around town, it is flimsy. If this city wants to encourage cycling (and not just promote the new electric bike businesses where bikes automatically lock themselves) then these things need to be addressed.

When traveling at the speed limit, many drivers seem to struggle to keep their vehicle in the correct lane. This becomes extremely problematic during wet or icy weather. If a turn lane can be implemented without hindering traffic flow or creating other hazard opportunities, I think it should be done.

As it is, it works fine except for the need for a pedestrian crossing somewhere (South Street is fine choice) with a light activated by the pedestrian.

Anonymous Getting across the road on foot or 6/30/2020 07:18 PM bicycle seems to be the main challenge both for myself and others. The road is working just fine as -is for through traffic, although better sidewalks with street trees would be nice (similar to what we've done further up on College). The proposed solutions don't seem to fix the problem of getting across it. What's needed is signalized crossings where people are actually needing to cross to get to/from downtown (which would be best located at Block Avenue and at Rock Street).

The street wasn't designed to handle the amount of traffic it experiences daily. I feel like it's been overlooked as other streets have been redesigned. With the planned development of more housing in the southwestern part of the city, Yell will become an even more important route through the city.

The intersection at Rock and College is unfortunate. I frequently see people disregard current rules for yielding as they turn onto Archibald Yell there. The biggest issue is the congestion of people turning left onto College in the evening as I head home. I'm looking forward to the dedicated turn lane, but I honestly wish people would just choose a different route.

Fayetteville has a higher population than ever before - and that area is somewhat growing. Why reduce the number of lanes? There is little bike or pedestrian traffic through there.

My biggest concern about the proposed changes to this road is that the city may forget that this is a direct route to 1-49 for a very large portion of Fayetteville residents. And while walk ability and bike ability are popular buzz terms in Page 251 of 253 Archibald Yell Improvements Questionnaire : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 modern urban planning, the fact remains that cars are the major mode of transportation in Fayetteville.

Having a turn lane for people turning on to East Rock or going down College - this is much better than just being parked in a driving lane 3. Looks like there is a little bit of a shoulder for people turning right on to Rock when southbound - I wish we had this now 4. Definitely agree with the no left turn areas (east Rock and S College) 5. New Crosswalk across Rock is great! This area is a SUCH a mess right now, literally any changes you make would be an improvement. There are way too many vehicles trying to go too many directions right now. Anonymous I love this plan! My only concern is that the southbound left hand turn lane onto College may end up with multiple cars sitting in the turn lane and extending into the Rock St. turn lane, which may cause some confusion. But Im sure you tested/assessed this, so overall I think its an excellent solution. Anonymous That intersection is crazy and 12/17/2020 01:42 PM dangerous.

This seems like a positive step in the right direction. Anonymous I live at that intersection and I have been in the area for forty years and I have seen alot of accidents at the intersection of the streets mentioned here. It will slow the southbound traffic downl enough to make it easier for the on coming traffic to know what the south bound traffic is doing Anonymous I really like allowing almost all the same flow as there is today. I only see one "no left turn" sign. I think this intersection needs to keep allowing good flow and not block off any of it. The pedestrian crossings look terrific. I have lived 3 blocks away for 16 years and I have taken my life in my hands to try to cross here on foot! Great design. I do think a big roundabout might be worth a look though. A rollover type I think would work great like the 2 new ones just east of Bud Walton arena.

The proposed plan looks a lot safer! Anonymous This intersection currently is unsafe 12/21/2020 09:29 PM and needs to be changed. North bound Rock St should be a right turn Page 9 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 only and south bound should be a right turn only onto Archibald Yell.

Anonymous I travel back and forth from my home on dead horse mountain road to the VA hospital daily using this route. This seems perfect for the intersection, however. I'm just worried with the amount of traffic coming from Archibald yell to college. If i need to turn from college to college, will I ever have the chance or will I have to sit there forever waiting in the large amount of traffic to pass. I think Archibald yell needs to be widened, not narrowed. Anonymous I support street design changes that Page 10 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 slow traffic and thereby improve safety for drivers, walkers and cyclists. These include narrower lanes, fewer lanes, and advantaging the pedestrian and cyclist over the driver. Anonymous I walk though this intersection frequently and it's a game of chicken every time because of the inherent ambiguity and driver focus on oncoming traffic rather than pedestrians. Clearly splitting out the conflicts and making everything unambiguous is essential and this proposal does that Anonymous Currently, cars southbound with a 12/29/2020 07:50 PM turn signal on can either be going on Rock street or College Ave. Separating this will definitely improve the intersection. Anonymous I drive a bus through that intersection 12/29/2020 08:41 PM every week day. Traffic will be bumper to bumper with only one lane. The intersections will be too narrow. The Rock St change isn't bad and would allow pedestrians to walk up to already existing college crossings. I believe when you narrow Archibald, you will push more traffic onto secondary streets. Anonymous The intersection is dangerous as -is. Any safety improvements are welcome. Anonymous Having medians in the road is a bad idea. Look how many cars are damaged yearly on 71 and Dickson. Especially during bad weather when they are hard to see. Like snow gathered on top of them.

Anonymous I live south of downtown and 12/30/2020 04:02 PM frequently have to cross Archibald Yell to get from my home to downtown. I feel it is incredibly dangerous as it is now and feel any plan to improve the street for foot traffic is a great step in the right direction. I think a pedestrian bridge over Archibald Yell would be the safest solution. Anonymous I'm not sure this really accommodates the steep grade of Rock Ave, and shouldn't keep a sidewalk at back of curb anywhere. Retaining walls and safe sidewalks must be done right for the investment to make sense now. Anonymous I think that the creation of the 1/01/2021 03:39 PM pedestrian island across Rock St and the cutout for the cars making right turns coming up Rock is a bit much; I'd prefer a design that still restricts traffic to a right turn only but eliminates the island and reduces pedestrian distance to cross the street. Anonymous The turning lane will help to remove a blocked lane from turning vehicles, but it won't matter if you reduce traffic flow to one lane each direction. Traffic will still be heavy even with turning traffic removed from turning left off Archibald. It appears to be a whole lot of changes just to end up with basically the same result. Anonymous We need to keep cyclists and 1/07/2021 11 :29 AM pedestrians away from traffic. I feel reduced lanes will cause a continuous line of traffic in both Page 13 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 directions making it impossible to use the dedicated turn lane. Anonymous This intersection is dangerous and I think this will make it a lot safer for drivers and pedestrians. The distinct lanes and protected turn lane will help a lot.

Anonymous I think a light would improve it, to reduce issues with getting on and off the main road Anonymous The road is too curvy for 4 lanes Anonymous Road diets are great for traffic 1/07/2021 11 :52 AM calming, and installing a center lane should minimize rear end collisions associated with left turning/exiting vehicles. Anonymous Given the amount of traffic that utilizes this intersection reducing lanes is not appropriate and will result in higher levels of accidents and poor decision making on the part of drivers Anonymous I think it will slow traffic down. 1/07/2021 12:02 PM Reducing number of lanes will slow down traffic.

Better warning signage about left turning would be safer. The bottlenecks created by forcing lanes from 4 to 3 will be more dangerous than the solution proposed. Anonymous This is a street designed for 1/08/2021 08:32 AM automobiles. We have many miles of trails that do not allow automobiles and I don't think we should overtake streets to give to pedestrians. Anonymous I don't think this Is much of a problem Anonymous I can see positives and negatives to this plan. I agree there should be a turning lane although most vehicles turning from the south seem to be police cars going to the station. Since plans are for moving the station, this may not be a concern later. I plan my routes so I don't have to be in dangerous spots. Page 17 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous From a motorist's standpoint I do not 1/08/2021 12:36 PM see eliminating two lane will increase traffic flow. People are very time conscience therefore they will become very frustrated with the congestion. Anonymous The way it is currently is dangerous 1/08/2021 02:29 PM in my opinion. The way all the roads go in different directions is a horrible design. Anonymous As Fayetteville grows the traffic carried by the former 71-B corredor will increase yet the City is intending to eliminate nearly half of the traffic carrying capacity of those streets. It may not be too bad for a while, but over time it will give us increasingly congested roadways. Congested roadways result in more traffic accidents, greater polution, and a less desirable lifestyle. With only one lane in each direction, traffic will come to a halt whenever a bus stops leading to rear -end accidents and a riskier situation for passengers. South Fayetteville will not be able to undo this mistake once it happens as new construction will make acquiring any additional property too expensive. Having a center turn lane is the only good part of this idea. Visualize all of today's vehicles in one of the existing lanes instead of spread out over the two and you get an idea of the immediate impact. Now use your imagination and visualize what that will be like in 5- 10-20 years. Choosing to create tomorrow's traffic jam.

In particular, the dedicated left turn lanes on southbound College are very needed. The crossings and pedestrian access are better than the current condition, but aren't great -- pretty circuitous and indirect. The wide swooping turns are bad for safety and unnecessary (especially the right turn from westbound Rock onto College). Reduce all the turn radii significantly to calm traffic and make pedestrian traffic safer and more direct. Anonymous We need to expect a population explosion in NW Arkansas and be ready for the next decade. We are building houses in South Fayetteville. Most residents will need to drive safety to get to work. It is insane to behave as if everyone can bike or ride a bus. Anonymous This will slow traffic and increase 1/10/2021 06:37 AM congestion. It is already so dangerous as it is, and I don't see decreased lanes as an improvement. Anonymous Anything is better. 1/10/2021 08:56 PM Anonymous Reducing lanes will cause MAJOR traffic congestion, which in turn will lead to more distracted, upset drivers, which in turn endangers pedestrians and bicycles alike. It needs to stay four lanes and actually be widened to accommodate a turn lane as well. Anonymous Could the intersection be designed to 1/11/2021 08:54 AM be more compact? Page 19 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 Anonymous There are multiple streets to turn right on. I think we could see quite a few cars being rear -ended going south. I am also concerned on how backed up the south bound lane at MLK will be since the right lane currently has +/- 10 cars waiting to turn right at the light most times. Anonymous I am not in favor of reducing the 1/11/2021 09:13 AM lanes to just three. The continuous turning lane is a great solution but not if that removes two other lanes of traffic. I think far more people are traveling through Archibald to get to MLK than are turning left at Rock/College so that seems to be fixing one issue at the expense of another issue that probably affects more people. Anonymous This solution allows traffic to enter and exit to/from S. College as well as E. Rock much more safely than the current street design. Anonymous I live close to South and have to 1/12/2021 08:57 AM walk to Center or MLK to cross. South Fayetteville will become part of downtown with these changes Anonymous 3 lanes is ridiculous. Anonymous Reducing the AY to two active lanes 1/12/2021 02:12 PM would be equal to making the Rock and College intersection a four way and moving traffic up and down College to MLK. This would simplify the complex AY, Rock and College intersection and reduce the cost to solve the AY, Rock and College intersection fix. Anonymous I take Rock every day and turning 1/12/2021 03:08 PM onto or off of it is honestly terrifying. Anonymous I think this is a really good solution. I would prefer a safe pedestrian Page 20 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 crossing added across college on the north end of this intersection.

I would have liked to see an option that read something like "increases bike safety/travelability along Archibald Yell". The option provided was about bikes crossing... I think bike crossing will still be tricky, just as it is at any busy intersection, but I think this road diet will help traveling up and down A.Y.

Anonymous this is such a confusing and dangerous intersection already, i feel that having more structure and instruction for traffic will help. Anonymous Reducing the number of lanes 1/13/2021 11:04 AM anywhere along this stretch of road is a terrible idea. Anonymous Squeezing down traffic that is 4-5 lanes on either side of a stretch of road, is likely going to cause congestion. Coming from the North end, there are already many lights right in a row, that makes it hard to merge in such a short time unless you want to merge into the right lane Page 21 of 56 Questionnaire #2: Archibald Yell Improvements Update : Survey Report for 08 August 2018 to 16 May 2021 super early (but the right lane is mostly people turning into the square and downtown. So essentially the left lane Southbound is the through lane ... you hit the light and then you have very little runway to merge over.

I have observed that people appear afraid to drive it and drive way below the speed limit. The second lane was a benefit to keep traffic from jamming up. I am concerned what impact the one lane will have on the overly cautious drivers hazard. That has been the main reason I go out of my way to avoid that strip of road.

Anonymous Sidewalks with continuous tree lawns between them and the street should be provided in all locations Anonymous I think making the delineation between the multi -use trail and cars more apparent than just striping would improve cyclists' safety. As it stands, I don't think I'd feel safe with just the striping as a barrier, considering vehicular speeds in the corridor along with the twist and turns of the road. Anonymous If the desire is to create a more pedestrian friendly area, it needs to be done without hindering the flow of traffic. Traffic is already bad enough in this proposed stretch without reducing travel lanes; pay the money to acquire property and build a path along side the road if necessary. Traffic could be reduced southbound on Archibald Yell if you designed a right turn only lane onto MLK Blvd that did not need to stop at the intersection then merged into existing lanes on MLK. I understand that the city wants to create more foot and bicycle traffic in this area, but currently that demand appears to be substantially lower than the need to fix the current traffic congestion in the area. Anonymous Painted bike lanes are not first in class - especially for high speed roads or roads with traffic speeds of this degree. The Vehicular Speed Limit will be a deterrent for use of the bike lane. We have several examples of unused painted bike lanes in this community including sections of 15th St and Mt.

However safe crossing at South/Block and College/Rock as well as Prairie would be good ideas. Again activated lights and speed bumps like on North Street I think would suffice at these crossings. Anonymous This is an absurd expenditure and 1/07/2021 02:13 PM disruption to a huge population of users for the convenience of a tiny population and additionally will not meet the stated goals but rather contribute to worse congestion, safety, reduced mobility, a barrier to businesses in the area, and an obstacle to cross town transit Anonymous 1/07/2021 02:27 PM This is a road, for cars.

I think people are using the crossings at MLK or Mountain if needed, but the trail system is already in place for safe travel in this area and is what I observe to be used by pedestrians and cyclists for the most part. I also oppose adding the paved trail alongside Archibald since the road is already curvy and difficult to drive even by car. The trail system already connects this area in a safe way and I don't think the S- curve is a good place for a bike lane. The sidewalks should be improved, however.

Anonymous Turning out of the parking lot from 12/19/2020 08:12 PM the Mill Building to go north on Archibald Yell is very accident prone. Hopefully this plan will slow down southbound traffic and help with that a bit. Also, it gets very backed up at MLK and S. School during rush hour (before coronavirus), so much so that you cannot even turn left out of Prairie St. onto Archibald Yell. This makes it even more difficult to turn out of the Mill Building parking lot (where the new Arsaga's is). Hopefully this will improve that situation somewhat, but it would be nice if this turn issue could be addressed in some way. Anonymous Sidewalk on south side, street 12/20/2020 10:52 PM lights!!!

Anonymous Besides the safety improvements 12/29/2020 07:45 PM already proposed I think aesthetics and Landscaping should be improved so that it matches the feel of the sections further north on college. This section in particular has a great potential to be a sort of winding 'Boulevard into Fayetteville' and such improvements would also help stimulate private investment along the corridor, which would help further connect the south side to downtown Fayetteville. There seems to be plenty of infill opportunity, places for new retail businesses, apartments etc. Anonymous Short of straightening the street, there is not much that can be done.

Anonymous I would like to see this area given an appropriate form -based code for a 1- 3 story boulevard.

Anonymous I'm not sure I would change anything. If anything, I would add a center turn lane. Anonymous This is still 71 business there ... so a main thoroughfare for vehicles... there are plenty of side roads and a bike path and so many other ways for slower traffic. If anything I would rather spend the money to maybe try to buy a little land on the curves to make them a little bit straighter and I think that would fix so many of the issues without trying to over -engineer it. I drive on the road daily and I rarely have issues on the road as it is now, but I think with this plan I would be skeptical of taking this route. Anonymous Making traffic stop in the middle of 1/13/2021 12:52 PM the hill would be the biggest drastic change. Stop speeding as is. Anonymous Pretty sure there isn't room, but I would put a green median between the lanes. Anonymous I like the thought of decreasing speed and flow, I believe bike lanes (secured) street/grass/sidewalk would be a great addition, we should also consider some elevated crossovers. This would allow us to commercially expand south of Archibald and encourage our concept of "neighborhood" community's.

BACKGROUND: Federal -aid Surface Transportation Block Grant Program -Attributable (STBGP-A) funds are now available to Northwest Arkansas after the Census Bureau determined the urbanized population to be over 200,000 and the FHWA designated Northwest Arkansas as a Transportation Management Area (TMA). In becoming a TMA, the Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission, of which Fayetteville is a member, will have STBGP-A discretionary funding available at approximately $7M per year. Under current legislation, these STBGP-A funds can be utilized for all permitted transportation projects at the discretion of the TMA Policy Committee. DISCUSSION: The Northwest Arkansas Regional Planning Commission (NWARPC), serving as the NWA Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), is accepting applications for FFY 2022 funding. Both referenced projects have been in the project development phase over the last couple of years. Hwy 62 Interchange The Hwy 62 Interchange improvements planned by ARDOT (Arkansas Department of Transportation) include the design of a S.P.U.I. (Single Point Urban Interchange) which creates access issues for adjacent businesses. To mitigate these conflicts, staff has developed a modified design. Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 At the request of the City, the ARDOT revised the design of the Hwy 62 Interchange. City Council approved Resolution 298-20 expressing their intent to partner with the ARDOT to complete the interchange project with the addition of the 15th Street Overpass at an additional estimated cost to the City of $1.4 million. ARDOT is reviewing the projected costs and has indicated that the City share may increase due to various factors. Therefore, the City will be requesting $3.0 million in federal funding. College Avenue (North St. to Township St.) City Council approved Resolution 218-19 which expresses the City's willingness to partner with ARDOT for the Hwy 112 Improvements project and the Hwy 71 B Improvements project. The ARDOT dedicated $1.5 million to the City for improvements along the College Avenue (North St. to Township St.) corridor. Garver Engineers have completed a study of proposed improvements to the College Avenue corridor and it is time to move into the design phase and then into construction. Improvements from North Street to Township Street are estimated to cost $12.5 million. The amount of federal funding available to each City is limited by the Regional Planning Commission policies. Therefore, staff will apply for a grant of $3.0 million for FFY 2022, but the City will have the opportunity to apply for additional funds in future years. At this time, a City Council resolution expressing the willingness of the City to utilize Federal -aid funds, to provide matching local funds, and to authorize the Mayor to execute all appropriate agreements is needed. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: If the grant is approved, based on the request of $7.5 million, the Federal -aid portion will be $6.0 million (80%), the City's portion will be $1.5 million (20%). These numbers are subject to change as the project is developed and more detailed estimates are provided. The Federal portion will be paid from the Surface Transportation Block Grant Program - Attributable (STBGP-A) funds. City funds will be paid from the Transportation Bond Program.

The interviews included: 1. Review by the team of overarching concepts from the master planning phase 2. Introduction of the current project. 3. Consultation with stakeholders of potential program ideas for the streetscape project. See list at the end of this document. 4. Addressing and receiving input on a variety of issues including shared access, parking consolidation, amenities, outdoor dining spaces, and theming opportunities. Stakeholders also provided information on their current parking, access and other issues presented by the current street configurations. In general, stakeholders were positive about the project and supported improvements to the street and sidewalk environments. Some key takeaways from the stakeholder meetings are listed below: COLLEGE AVENUE • Walkability and micro -mobility should be the priority • Currently College prevents pulling any bike/ped/scooter traffic from the east to the Woodland Junior High School. • Dr. Slocum of Fayetteville Public Schools would prefer a trail and bicycle access on the south side of the track if possible to a Poplar alignment. School district is interested in providing a trail easement over that part of its property. • The new streetscape should provide a safer place for walking and add more public transportation amenity • Questions about location and overall use of medians • Safety concerns for pedestrians crossing from the VA at Memorial Drive to Evelyn Hills Shopping Center. Concerns over short pedestrian signal cycles and visibility • General concerns regarding the timing of the light at E Memorial Drive and College • Concerned about and general opposition to zoning changes • Overarching issue of College Avenue infrastructure. Necessary repairs or replacement of water lines should be coordinated with the streetscape project. • Both interest and skepticism regarding branding that corridor of College • The design should be flexible. • Support for flexible outdoor seating, with special interest in one centralized larger area. Could also be a series of outdoor spaces. • Considerable sign pollution • Relocate overhead wires as feasible • Need to develop ideas to encourage easy pedestrian access between businesses • Dickson Street and entertainment district have traditionally been the focus of branding. It would be wonderful to have some focus on branding/beautification in this part of town. The area has been called Midtown in the past- not sure if that is a good branding or not. Would be great to have nice lights and decorative street banners as well as larger investment/draw to the area • This area is an emerging district • Maintaining accessibility during construction is very important • Connect a drive from Green Acres to College Avenue along Colt Drive or north of Mermaids • Desire for an area for community style outdoor seating • Fewer driveways/curb cuts would improve trafficflow and safety • Enhance lighting along College Avenue SOUTH SCHOOL AVENUE • Do not change access • The apartments planned for South Yard anticipates future on -street parking • Poor lighting is an issue on this street • Intersection of 11th and South School is crash -prone • Cars run into the tree at the Farmer's Table with some frequency • Look for opportunities for interfaces between bike/micro mobility network. • ORT is not married to specific bus stop locations. Open to shifting things - but major boarding points are Seven Hills, the Research Park, and major intersections. A transit center with turnaround loop is desirable. • Ozark Regional Transit would determine bus stop design. Far side installation is safest • Build in flexibility for evolution to BRT. Eugene, OR is an example of such an evolution • South School Corridor -specific • Any on -street bike facility should be carefully coordinated for safe operation with buses • Preference for a multi -use a side path if possible - but open to the idea of either protected directional bike lanes or two-way cycle track on one side • This could be the beginning of a more regional vision that extends the bike infrastructure to West Fork and Greenland r; PROGRAMMING THE STREET: SOUTH SCHOOL & COLLEGE AVENUES PROGRAM SOUTH SCHOOL Roadway • Reallocation of right of way in certain locations • Road section: Three 11-12' travel lanes with two-way cycle track on west side • On -street parking: located as needed along South School • Access management - driveway containment, identify parking areas for modification and general approach Pedestrian refuge medians at high demand crossings Possible enhancement or higher visibility of entrance to Reserach Park Active Transportation • Bicycle facility: Two-way separated bicycle track on west side • Sidewalks: Five 6' sidewalk behind the curb separated by pavers or a minimum of six feet distance away from curb to allow for tree plantings. Back of curb sidewalks without edge buffer are acceptable adjacent to cycle track. • Colored concrete crosswalks at pedestrian crossings • 11th Street and South School - Modify alignment of 11th Street and South School and modify parking to allow for safer vehicular traffic, pedestrian and bicycle mobility. • Redesign of 11th Street strip center parking lot for improved safety and sidewalk continuity • Transit- Locate bus shelters where appropriate.

Consequently, it should be a major part of the 71B development program. Potential art installations along the South School and College Avenue streetscapes include: • District gateways. These define the edges and themes of identifiable districts along the street, such as the University of Arkansas research campus and the emerging Mill District along South School and the Restaurant District along College north of Township. Integrated public art could be used to reflect local history, bring attention to specific sites and highlight local artists. Bus shelters. At special intersections such as transit stops, art and function can be combined with thematically designed shelters. • Pedestrian and Trail crossings. Major pedestrian intersections such as the Greenway and Town Branch Trail crossings can be marked by placemaking elements that also increase safety and visibility. Similar treatments can be used to enhance safety at defined pedestrian crossings away from street intersections. • Open spaces such as those envisioned with a redesign of the Green Acres drive intersection, the gathering space at Poplar and College Avenue provide possibilities for major art installations.

BMPS are structural, vegetative or managerial practices used to treat, prevent or reduce water pollution. This adds another layer of sustainability to the corridor. Some of the BMP's would include bioretention gardens, raingardens, porous pavements or water quality inlets. GATHERING SPACES AND TRAILHEADS There may be an opportunity to create gathering spaces and a trail head at the Poplar and College Avenue intersection. The gathering space could serve as an area for people to bring there take out meals from the restaurant district or serve as a space for community or district events. The trailhead would be associated with the proposed Sublett creek trail. This would include a parking lot and open space with picnic tables, benches and other amenities. The gathering space and trail head would also be areas to incorporate public art. PROGRAMMING THE STREET: SOUTH SCHOOL & COLLEGE AVENUES SOUTH SCHOOL SECTIONS Ad EXISTING SOUTH SCHOOL CONDITION Five -lane configuration looking north from Town Branch Creek bridge SOUTH SCHOOL AVENUE - PARKING The illustration above shows the buffer modified to provide on -street parking. This section pertains to areas with demonstrated demand for on -street parking. The wider buffer can be modified over time to provide on -street parking that supports future rredevelopment projects. SOUTH SCHOOL AVENUE - TYPICAL SECTION The desirable typical section provides a three -lane section with two-way protected cycle track on the west side, separated by a buffer delineated with surface mounted rumble strips and raised pavement markers, consistemnt with the treatment planned for Archibald Yell. The buffer ranges from 4' to 14' with the ability to accommodate on -street parking where the demand exists. Sidewalk with is 5' minimum (6' preferred), set back 5 to 6' from the back of curb. SOUTH SCHOOL AVENUE - CONSTRAINED SECTION In some sections, a constrained right of way or topography makes a sidewalk setback difficult. In these situations, a back of curb sidewalk is most acceptable adjacent to the cycle track. Other options include adjustment of the curb line with reduction of the buffer between the cycletrack and travel lanes; or acquisition of a strip of right of way to permit a sidewalk setback.

HWY. 62 INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS Fayetteville, AR 15t" Street Overpass Traffic Report southern limits are at Cato Springs Road. Many routes within the study area were analyzed. MILK Jr Boulevard serves as a major commuter corridor with many low -density commercial businesses and mixed low and high density residential nearby. The University of Arkansas is a major traffic generator in the area, with multiple sports venues in the region which attract a large number of attendees. There is a quantifiable student population in the area, as well as many University driven employers. The area near the proposed overpass is experiencing rapid development. The study area is shown in Figure 3. 2.0 Traffic Field Observations Field observations were conducted to verify driver behavior and identify operational deficiencies and/or safety concerns that should be considered when developing build alternatives. Traffic in the area is directional, with the prevailing movements during the morning peak hour being eastbound along MILK Jr Boulevard and the eastbound left turn onto 1-49 from MILK Jr Boulevard. The evening peak hour is the opposite major movements, with westbound MLK Jr Boulevard and southbound right turn from Shiloh Drive onto MILK Jr Boulevard being the prevailing movements. During the AM peak hour, the most significant queueing was observed traveling eastbound into Fayetteville on Hwy 62. Queueing is most noticeable entering the system at the intersection of Finger Garver Project No. 19T21130 Page 3 CARVER CITY OF ��FAYETTEVILLE ARKANSAS 1.0 Introduction 151 Street Overpass Preliminary Engineering Report The purpose of this preliminary engineering report is to evaluate potential revisions to the Highway 62 Interchange as proposed by ARDOT (referenced as the ARDOT Option in this report). ARDOT proposes to convert the existing Highway 62 Interchange from a conventional diamond interchange to a Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI). Along with the SPUI design, ARDOT proposes improvements to the Northbound exit ramp onto Futrall Drive with a proposed roundabout near 15th street, the southbound on - ramp from Shiloh Drive, and improvements south at the Cato Springs Exit including a roundabout. The City of Fayetteville proposes to modify ARDOT's planned improvements (referenced in this report as ARDOT + City Option) by adding a connection from the east roundabout to 15th Street, adding an overpass over Interstate 49 to a roundabout on the western side of Interstate 49, and removing the proposed improvements at Cato Springs Road.
