Need for Traffic Signal Upgrades The need for traffic signal upgrades to replace outdated equipm ent or to accom modate m ore com plex signalization needs has been identified at several locations throughout the city . These locations are indicated in Table 8-2. Traffic Signalization and Control Improvements Table 8-2 presents im provem ents for the traffic control at key intersections throughout the Medford UGB. Included are projects for signal installation at currently unsignalized intersections, signal upgrades where appropriate, and other appropriate im provem ents such as all-way stop control and/or roundabout treatm ents. It should be noted that several of the projects in this table have already been identified as im provem ent needs and included in the 2001-2023 Rogue Valley Regional Transportation Plan and/or the City’s 17-project list. Others would be incorporated into larger projects, particularly along Highway 62 at Coker Butte Road and Elliot Road (which would becom e Owen Drive). New signalized intersections of these streets with Highway 62 are planned and street alignm ent changes will be made to provide adequate vehicle storage distan ce between Highway 62 and Crater Lake Avenue. Implem entation of m any of these im provem ents also could have positive im pacts for pedestrian circulation in that the addition of a traffic signa l may improve pedestrian safety at intersections.
