Abstract

Prompted by a growing awareness that there were deficiencies in the safe and efficient movement of traffic in LeMars, City officials decided to take some positive action toward an improvement program. They applied for and received funds for a study of traffic conditions. The grant was funded by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) as part of the Federal Highway Safety Act of 1966, Program Standard 13 11Traffic Engineering Services 1. See Exhibit A-1 in Appendix. The purpose and objectives of Standard 13 are well su1ted to meet the concern of LeMars officials in attaining their desired goal, which in this case is the safe, efficient, and economical movement of persons and goods by automotive transportation. Also of concern is the safety of pedestrians of all ages, but, especially those of elementary-school age.
