Please see e-mail below from Miami -Dade Public Works regarding modifying the signal timing at NW 17th Avenue and

Freddie:
As per your request, we modified the signal timing at S River Dr & NW 17 Ave in the AM & PM
Peaks by giving the E/W movement 5 seconds more, reducing that amount from the N/S movement.
Thanks,

Good afternoon Bob; I hope that everything is going well for you and your family. I have not bother you
recently so I think that is time to do so.

We have been working on a project in the City of Miami where neighborhood residents have communicated
to us that they experience excessive delay exiting their neighborhood at the signalized intersection of NW
17th Avenue and NW S. River Drive. As part of our study we have obtained AM and PM peak hour turning
movement counts and analyzed the intersection. Based on the results of our analysis, we believe the signal
timing could be modified during the AM peak to provide about 5 additional seconds of green time to the
minor street approach (NW S. River Drive) without significantly impacting the major street (NW 17th
Avenue). During the PM peak hour, the signal presently operates on an 180' cycle length. We believe the
cycle length could be reduced to 90' (double cycle) without significantly impacting the operation of nearby
signals. Please advise who we can work with to see if adjusting the signal timing at the subject intersection
is feasible. I will be able to provide copies of our analysis to get your opinion.
Thanks for your assistance.
