Dear Ms. Lloyd:
Re: Route 13
This is in accordance with the May 8, 1979, Town of Dryden resolution
concerning no- passing zones on Route 13 between Route 366 and Ringwood
Rd. (CR 164).
This past summer and fall, we have studied the section of Route 13
between Dryden and Varna and have made several changes in the pavement
markings at various locations in order to present to the motorist a
true picture of the actual passing or no- passing zones present on the
highway.
It is our opinion
that
the
pavement markings now in existence on that
highway
are proper
for
the
prevailing conditions.
We cannot hope to succeed in getting motorist adherence to pavement
markings if we restrict passing where any chance of a left turning
vehicle exists. We must allow passing at all locations where it is
feasible and desirable and to restrict only where necessary for sight
distance restrictions or for major intersections or drives where there
is considerable volume of turning traffic. It is up to the individual
motorist to observe caution and to signal his intentions well in advance
of a turn location so that any following or approaching motorist can be
made aware of the upcoming turn.
In conclusion, we have studied your requests, made the necessary changes,
and feel that the markings now in place are proper; however, if condi-
tions change in the future, there may have to be other changes made as
tomorrow's demands so necessitate.
Ver -tr -L,,,'
OS yours,
OSEPH POWERS
Regional Transportation Director
