Technical Memo Date: February 5, 2020
To: Dirk Gowin
From: Philip Bischof, David Lee, Jonathan Albers
Subject: Bardstown Rd. @ Baxter Ave./Highland Ave. Signal Improvements
Introduction
Bardstown Rd. at Baxter Avenue/Highland Avenue is a signalized five-leg intersection. It is located in
the dynamic lane assignment section of the Bardstown Rd/Baxter Ave corridor. Lane assignments
are made via overhead lane lights. This project includes the conceptual design of two additional
crosswalks allowing pedestrians to legally cross both Baxter Avenue and Bardstown Road south of
the location where the two roads split. The proposed crosswalk midpoint is near the former Yang
Kee Noodle property at 1004 Bardstown Road.

Existing Conditions
The intersection currently operates as a three-phase signal. Phases 2 and 6 operate simultaneously,
Phases 4 and 8 operate simultaneously, and Phase 3 operates exclusively. There are pedestrian
phases that run with Phases 2, 4, 6, and 8 at Baxter and Bardstown. All pedestrian phases include a
3 second leading pedestrian interval.
Figure 2: Existing Signal Phasing
Alternative 1
Alternative 1 utilizes a two-stage crossing for the new possible pedestrian movements. The
pedestrian phase that crosses Bardstown Road can run with Phase 3 (the NB Baxter Avenue
movement) as there are no conflicts between the two phases. However, there is a concern with
vehicular yield compliance with the crosswalk leg that crosses Baxter Avenue during certain signal
phases. In this configuration pedestrians would cross with Highland Avenue vehicular movements,
Phases 4 and 8. The concern is that vehicles turning from either NB or SB Highland Avenue to SB
Baxter Avenue may not be aware of the crosswalk location due to atypical intersection geometry and
the distance between the crosswalk and the vehicle starting positions within the intersection. This
problem may be especially prevalent at nighttime. Additional lighting, pavement markings, and
signage are proposed in the conceptual plans as remediation. Additionally, the implementation of a
rectangular rapid flashing beacon (RRFB) could be considered.

Figure 3: Alternative 1 Configuration
Alternative 2
The concept for Alternative 2 is identical to Alternative 1 with regard to layout. The difference
between the two alternatives is the phase operation of the northbound Baxter Avenue leg of the
crosswalk. The pedestrian phase crossing would operate as an exclusive, pedestrian actuated,
phase. This phase would operate simultaneously with Phase 2 (NB Bardstown Road) as the two
phases do not have any conflicts. Additionally, this alternative includes adding a “No Right Turn On
Red” sign (R10-11, 11a, 11b) for the eastbound Highland Ave. movement. Alternative 2 removes
most of the safety concerns from Alternative 1, but may potentially have a negative impact on
intersection operations. The intersection would no longer be able to use current timing, taking the
intersection out of coordination with nearby signals. Although not included in the scope of this
project, additional investigation is recommended to determine if intersection operations continue at
an acceptable level of service with Alternative 2.

Conclusions
There is a clear need for the addition of these pedestrian crossings as the Bardstown Rd. and Baxter
Ave. corridors feature a significant amount of pedestrian traffic – especially at this location. Either
alternative has its benefits and drawbacks. They share the benefit of providing enhanced access for
pedestrians in the area. Alternative 1 allows the city to retain the existing signal timing plans that are
in place today, but it also has fairly significant safety concerns. Alternative 2 is the safer option for
pedestrians but it won’t allow the intersection to run the same signal timing plans it currently runs.
Lastly, as previously mentioned, an analysis of the operations for Alternative 2 is recommended as it
could cause the level of service and delay to deteriorate past an acceptable level during peak hours.
