City of Morgan Hill Station Area Master Plan - February 2018

Station Area Master Plan – Transportation Context

Crosswalks are missing on at least one of the legs for the following intersections: McLaughlin Avenue and Main Avenue, Depot Street and Main Avenue, Second Street and Del Monte Avenue, Bisceglia Avenue and Monterey Road, and Ciolino Avenue and Monterey Road. Crosswalks at the unsignalized intersection of Monterey Road and Third Street are created with brick pavers. (See Figure 1-33.) The City installed in-pavement flashers on Third Street that will be pedestrian activated to notify drivers of crossing pedestrians. After they are installed, the city will review their effectiveness and determine whether they should be installed at other locations in the Downtown (for example at First Street and Fifth Street) or whether other measures and crossing devices would be more appropriate. Curb Extensions

All intersections along Monterey Road and Depot Street between Main Avenue and Fifth Street provide curb extensions. (See Figure 1-34.) Benefits of curb extensions include shortened pedestrian crossings and traffic speed reductions.
