Traffic study * USA - 10th Street is the safer route for gravel trucks in Oshtemo
Alamo Township,Kalamazoo,MICH,USA -mlive/The Kalamazoo Gazette, by Gail Secord -6 Jan 2009: -- It is safer for gravel trucks to use 10th Street to reach M-43 than 6th Street, according to a traffic study released Monday... The study was paid for by G Avenue Properties LLC, which is suing Oshtemo Township for prohibiting gravel trucks from using 10th Street... The study concluded that the 10th Street route would be the safest of the two routes, citing wider lanes and better shoulder availability, better sight distances and the fewer vehicles with which the gravel trucks would have to interact. The report also notes that there is a traffic signal at the intersection of 10th Street and M-43... (Photo: Street to reach M-43 than 6th Street, according to a traffic study released Monday.
