Resolution detail

RESOLVED TO RECOMMEND

That the outcome of the investigation for road signage at the Kendal Road / Undine Road Intersection in Eversdal BE NOTED and implementation as recommended be dealt with by the relevant line department:

Relocating the existing stop control is not recommended. One of the criteria for implementing an all-way stop control is insufficient sight distance. The stop controls force the motorist along all the approaches to stop due to sight being restricted. One then proceeds with caution through the intersection.

W218 concealed driveway warning signs are recommended along both Kendal Road approaches. According to SARTSM Volume 1, Chapter 3.3.10, “The concealed driveway warning signs W216, W217 and W218 are to warn road users that, due to restricted sight distance vehicles entering the roadway ahead from driveways on the right, or the left, or both sides, may constitute a hazard and that extra caution should be exercised.”

Refer to Annexure A (agenda page 808), Drawing Number 4619 / TNDN4621 / 01 for the location of the recommended road markings.
