Subject: 	Canal Plaza Hotel - Traffic Signal Modification Requirements

Nell ‑ In conjunction with the condition of approval for the above project, I met with DPS staff and the following outlines the requirements for modifying the traffic signal at the Fore Street/Union Street intersection.

*        The existing mast arm located on the northeast corner of the intersection shall be relocated to the corner between the proposed sidewalk ramps.  A new mast arm foundation shall be installed and the existing arm shall be moved (a new arm and pole support is not being required).  In conjunction with this effort new count‑down pedestrian signal heads and push buttons shall be provided on this pole support.

*        The traffic signal controller cabinet shall be installed in the location noted on the plan provided by Woodard & Curran on November 6, 2012, only slightly adjusted northerly such that it is not located in the sidewalk ramp.

*        All other pedestrian signal heads at the intersection shall be upgraded to count‑down type heads.

The applicant shall submit a plan illustrating the above noted requirements for review and approval.

If you have any questions, please contact me.
