  • Edwards Rd and Wasson Rd Oakley Square Eastern Corridor
    James Weaver Planners Assignment #4 Niehoff Urban Studio Edwards Rd and Wasson Rd Wasson Rd is a connector street that links Rookwood Commons and Hyde Park Plaza. Vehicles attempting to make the left hand turn from Southbound Edwards Rd. to Wasson Rd often back up onto Madison Rd, disrupting signal timing and creating a dangerous situation for cars stranded in the intersection. Creating a median and eliminating the left turn while still allowing full turning movement from Wasson Rd will eliminate this backup and increase traffic flow on Edwards Rd and on Madison Rd. This diagram shows the location of the proposed improvement, as well as possible alternatives to reach Hyde Park Plaza from the North. Improvements to Markbreit Ave in accordance with the City’s plan for Oakley Square could be one alternative to reach this retail destination. Restricting left hand turns from Edwards Rd to Wasson Rd would alleviate the backups onto Madison Rd. This example shows a landscaped island in place of the turn lane, which also makes the existing crosswalk more pedestrian friendly. Oakley Square The City of Cincinnati recently came up with a plan to redesign Oakley Square. Improvements include widening the square and improving pedestrian and auto oriented movement. It also squares up intersections along Madison Rd. Eastern Corridor Improvements The City of Cincinnati has also proposed improvements to the Eastern section of Madison Rd. The road is widened to allow for a bump out for bus passengers to enter and exit safely. The bump outs also allow for motorists to have an increased view of traffic while pulling out of side streets, increasing safety.

  • Driving on Bad Roads
    Location Trainer Date DEFENSIVE DRIVING BASICS DRIVING ON BAD ROADS We can’t do all of our driving on brand new high-speed expressways. Many roads, especially older country roads, are narrow and poorly surfaced. Others have not been well maintained because of budget cuts. Some are in the midst of repair. Here are some road conditions you may encounter. Poor Surface Conditions Watch out for potholes and bumps in the road. They can damage your steering and cause you to lose control of your vehicle. If there is sand, dirt or oil on the road, drive more slowly. These all reduce traction and steering control. Some roads are extremely slippery, especially when wet or frosty. Overpasses freeze first. Underpasses thaw last. Expect wet leaves on the road in autumn and hot melting asphalt in summer. Both create slippery conditions. Other Road Conditions Some roads seem to specialize in blind curves and hills. Many rural roads are poorly marked so that you must be ready for the unexpected–a hairpin turn, unannounced intersection, or narrow bridge. Other roads are poorly banked making curves especially treacherous. Country roads may be too narrow for two cars, especially around curves. Drive slowly and sound your horn when in these curves. It helps to keep your headlights on as well, even in the daytime. If you meet another car on a one–lane stretch of road with no shoulder to allow passing, the driver going downhill must back up. If a road has a prolonged steep grade, use your low gears to prevent brake failure caused from overheating.
