Kieft. Based upon current peak hour traffic, a signal is not warranted at the Drake/Hampshire intersection based upon Warrant 11, Peak Hour Warrant. The Peak Hour Warrant is usually the one that is met first at any given intersection. Using the short and long range traffic projections, the peak hour signal warrant is still not met using the volumes on the north leg of Hampshire Road as the minor street volume. Traffic projected from Hampshire Pond will not add to the signal warrant volume. Most of the exits from Hampshire Pond will turn to the east (right turns), which are not used in the warrant analysis based upon rulings contained in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, U.S.DOT, 1988. The need for a left arrow at the Drake/Taft Hill intersection will be addressed as part of the Choices 95 improvements to the intersection, which will occur in the next year. I am sure the Fort Collins Engineering staff will evaluate the need for a left -turn phase at this intersection. i
