Village of South Glens Falls Route 9 Corridor Study

The Village of South Glens Falls has requested assistance from the Adirondack / Glens Falls Transportation Council (A/GFTC) to analyze the Route 9 corridor for the purposes of identifying opportunities to improve traffic congestion, safety, and multimodal access.

Specific emphasis areas of this study are to include:

1. Analysis of signal timing, including a comparison of traditional coordination techniques versus Adaptive Signal Control Technology (ASCT) principles, to determine whether congestion can be improved ^[1]
2. Concept-level design recommendations for pedestrian improvements at key intersections
3. Identification of additional opportunities for pedestrian crossings, especially along Saratoga Avenue
4. Identification of opportunities for bicycle accommodations

[1] Consultants should use engineering judgement to determine whether the traffic signal at Glen Street (Route 9)/Mohican Street/Oakland Avenue within the City of Glens Falls should be included in the analysis of signal timing. This project does not include a pedestrian/bicycle analysis of this intersection.
