It was unanimously resolved that the "yield" sign, <br />which had been placed on Railway Avenue, outbound, would be r.emoved and placed on <br />the Scott Riverside road outbound, in order to give the majority traffic flow on <br />Rail�vay Avenue the right-of-way. <br />Also, the City of Everett agreed to initiate the paintinq of a center line down <br />Railway Avenue, to help separate two-way traffic. Also, to avoid further right- <br />of-way cor.fusion, the center line on Scott Riverside road would be removed from <br />the railroad crossing abck to the existing "yield" sign. <br />It was also decided that you would contact Chapman Trucking Company and assi.st in <br />getting the salvaqe obstruction (loczted at the east end of Lhe property) removed <br />to allow adequate vision of oncoming traffic. <br />The factors of high brush growth, piled auto salvage, narrow corner width, L�vo-way <br />truck traffic, and uncontrolled vehicle speed have combined to make this corner <br />potentially dangerous. <br />Your assistance and cooperation in this maL•ter are sincerely appreciated. <br />��P��� <br />Ronn P. 47ool1ey <br />Timberlands Safety h]anager <br />cc: Chapman Trucking Company <br />� <br />
