Project Type MQP Submission date 2009-03-05 Authors David G Keck, CE Mary Schultz, CE Sean C Serra, CE URN E-project-030509-231421 Title Re-Design of the Intersections of Burncoat and East Mountain Streets and West Boylston and West Mountain Streets Advisor Ray, Malcolm H., CE Availability unrestricted Abstract
This project studied the junctions of West Boylston, Mountain, and Burncoat Streets, observing traffic trends, collision histories, and signal timings. The information collected through field testing and observations was then organized and analyzed using procedures outlined in the MUTCD and software to analyze the existing conditions. The analysis led to the development of possible design alternatives, which were evaluated in order to determine which would be recommended. This set of recommendations has been sent to the Worcester DPW and intends to improve the overall safety and flow of the intersection.
