Crosswalk Analysis Gregory Avenue & Orange Heights Avenue Project No.: 240344 March 21, 2025 Page 4 of 6 Gregory Avenue & Orange Heights Avenue We performed a sight distance analysis for the intersection of Gregory Avenue & Orange Heights Avenue. This analysis was performed per the standards set forth within the 2018 AASHTO - A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets (The Green Book). Orange Heights Avenue has no posted speed limit. It is our opinion that a 25 MPH speed limit is appropriate for this roadway. Based on Table 3-1 of the AASHTO standards, a design speed of 30 MPH (5 MPH over the posted speed limit) with a leveled roadway will require an intersection sight distance of 335 feet. Figure 2 – Sight Distance – Gregory Avenue & Orange Heights Avenue GREGORY AVENUE ORANGE HEIGHTS AVENUE From the analysis, we observed that there is adequate sight distance for vehicles on the minor-road (Orange Heights Avenue) to turn or cross the major road (Gregory Avenue). There are minimal obstructions such bushes and tree foliage preventing vehicles from Orange Heights Avenue from observing the entire intersection area. 70 South Orange Avenue, Suite 109 Livingston, New Jersey 07039 C: (732) 236-7557 T: (973) 228-0999 F: (201) 753-3904 BrightViewEngineering.com PO Box 99 Roseland, NJ 07068
