Highway 60 and Lake Dore Road/
Kokomis Road Intersection Improvements
Township of North Algona Wilberforce, County of Renfrew
Project Background
Background
In May 2021, an Operational Performance Review was completed of the intersection of Highway 60 and Renfrew County Road 30 (Lake Dore Road) / Renfrew County Road 70 (Kokomis Road) as a result of increased traffic volumes at the intersection. The objective was to assess the existing (2020) operational and geometric conditions of the intersection, identify potential operational and safety concerns, and propose improvements.
Problem Statement
-
The intersection skew has caused left turning traffic to overlap (eastbound and westbound)
-
Vehicles on Highway 60 attempt to bypass left-turning vehicles
-
Obstructed sightline towards the east at south approach
Recommendations
Complete an Environmental Assessment and Preliminary Design to evaluate intersection improvement alternatives and identify a Technically Preferred Alternative (TPA).
