!between the hours of 7: 30-8: 30 a.m. and 4: 30-5: 30 p.m. be denied,
;'for the reasons that 1) Modification of this intersection is presently
;under construction, including the installation of traffic signals, alnd
2) The six-movement phase of traffic at this intersection can not be'
effectively controlled by a traffic officer, and further attempts at such
control will result in extreme hazard to the officer concerned, as
�orne out by past experience of the Police Department.
,,(ITEM 61) That a request by the West Side Business Association for
`traffic lights to be installed at Highway 50 West and Dix Road be
;denied, on the basis of 1) A large proportion of the east-west traffic
jbn Highway 50 West originates and terminates at Dix Road, reducing the
!traffic west of Dix Road well below the requirement for a signal, and
2) Traffic count at any but peak hours at this intersection is well
�elow the level which would indicate need for a signal.
