This barrier would be installed <br /> within the study limits with one opening. This opening would be signalized when <br /> signals warrants3 were met. Once comments are gathered on the study, ADOT is <br /> prepared to begin final design and would expect construction to begin soon after the <br /> completion of the design. <br /> ' End Treatments—A protective device placed at the end of barriers to mitigate damage in the event of <br /> a collision <br /> `. Speed Differential—The difference in speed between faster and slower moving traffic. <br /> ' Signal Warrants—8 warrants or tests that one or more must be met to justify the installation of a traffic <br /> signal. <br /> Councilman Bell asked how long it would take for Federal Highway approval <br /> and he was pleased to see a recommendation. Mr. Hammit responded <br /> approval would take approximately one week; the report would be reviewed <br /> and the review process was done locally. <br /> Mr. Hammit added the estimate was $2.4 million for two miles and if a traffic <br /> signal was warranted it could be funded through a State-wide Signal Fund or <br /> Hazard Fund; but a signal didn't mitigate accidents. <br /> Councilman Bell asked how long it would take for the design and Mr. Hammit <br /> replied that the design would be done fairly quickly and the project completed <br /> within the fiscal year, possibly next summer. <br />
