Dear Mr. Christiansen,
Thank you for your letter regarding traffic safety concerns at Harmony Road and College
Avenue. The City and State work cooperatively in areas where jurisdictions overlap, and in this
location by agreement the management and operation of the intersection and signal, etc. are by
the City of Fort Collins. We share your interest in safety at the intersection, which we monitor on
an on-going basis, and analyze in detail. In the last three years, the number and severity of
reported crashes are not higher than what would be expected compared to similar intersections.
As you know, there is a proposed development just east of the intersection. Based on citizen
concerns from the neighborhood meeting, we've reviewed the intersection's crash history specific
to U-turns and there aren't any crash trends that would suggest the need to restrict this
movement.
We're able to monitor this intersection from our Traffic Operations Center. Based on your
comment about near-misses, we'll spend some extra time watching the intersection ---
particularly during the peak periods. We would consider changes if we note any significant
issues. Please feel free to contact us directly at Traffic Operations if you'd like to discuss further.
Sincerely,
Joe Olson, P.E.
Traffic Engineer
City of Fort Collins
