Safety Study Cheshire Terrace & Nottingham Road Project No.: 241193 February 4, 2025 Page 5 of 7 70 South Orange Avenue, Suite 109 PO Box 99 Livingston, New Jersey 07039 Roseland, NJ 07068 C: (732) 236-7557 T: (973) 228-0999 F: (201) 753-3904 BrightViewEngineering.com RECOMMENDATIONS It is our recommendation that a STOP sign be installed on the Cheshire Terrace approach at the study intersection. Treatments which can be considered include but are not limited to: Sight Distance Improvements – At the intersection of Cheshire Terrace & Nottingham Road, the line of sight of approaching vehicles was found to be obstructed. We observed that if vehicles stop closer to the mainline on Nottingham Road, then they would have clear visibility of the traffic conditions at the intersection and would be able to safely make a turn onto Nottingham Road. It is our opinion that if the tree and other foliage at the corners of the intersection are cleared, then the sight distance can be improved. We recommend that the Township cooperate with its residents to trim overgrown foliage and clear obstruction from sight triangles, as reasonable. FIGURE 3 – Intersection Sight Distance
