Project Details
AbstractATAC completed a study for the City of Bismarck to evaluate the intersection of Washington St. and Ash Coulee Dr./43rd Ave. Several requests were made to the City Commission to install a traffic signal at this location in an effort to alleviate traffic congestion and safety issues. The concerns were primarily related to traffic conditions during Horizon Middle School (HMS) start and dismissal times. ATAC conducted an extensive field analysis to observe and collect data on traffic operations in the area. ATAC staff provided estimates for actual traffic delay at the intersection. They also evaluated the feasibility of installing a traffic signal as well as other traffic control measures. The study concluded that traffic delay at the intersection was minimal and that a traffic signal was not justified.
