TC 08-04-14 Meeting Agenda
Item 1: Blind Child Area Sign Request
Staff has received a request for a Blind Child Area sign on Plankwood Court in Stephens City.
VDOT handles these signs the same way as they handle Children At Play signs, which means
that while they don’t use them they will allow localities to install them and maintain them.
Reasons that VDOT does not use these signs are the same as were brought up when this
committee considered Children At Play signs and included potential liability as well as a false
sense of security.
Staff has contacted the contractor that the County uses for street name signs and the estimated
cost to purchase and install the sign is approximately $200 depending upon how many posts are
ordered at a time.
Item 2: VDOT Project Updates
VDOT staff will be on hand to update the committee on their current projects.
Item 3: Six Year Improvement Program Update
Attached please find the draft and final versions of the FY 15 Six Year Improvement Program.
As you will see there were no significant changes between the draft and final plan, particularly to
Route 277. This item is for discussion.
Item 4: Other
