tHE Mountain Avenue safety issue:
UA memo of Mountain Ave Safety: This memo written by UA professor Joey Juiliano contains 2020 data about Mountain Avenue. It is important to note that since this memo the Department of Transportation has declared that, though the road is a path for emergency vehicles, speed tables are allowed. DTM has suggested five tables.
DTM suggests the following placement of the speed tables on Mountain. Petitions have not been circulated. JPNA has requested that the UofA fund the speed table between Speedway and Helen which has adjacent UA properties. To date UA has not agreed. Speed tables are pricier than humps - @10K.
