circle, and regulatory access restriction, in and/or along a street or intersection, having the sole
purpose to discourage cut -through traffic and to minimize travel speeds.
Section 53-84 Project eligibility requirements and design standards
All of the following criteria shall be satisfied for a street to be considered eligible for traffic
calming devices and/ or measures once the City has received a citizen request for residential traffic
calming.
A. Operational and Geometric Requirements of the Street -- Consideration of Physical
Devices
Only functionally -classified "residential" and "neighborhood collector" streets
having not more than one travel lane in each direction and not more than 40
feet in width (measured from back -of -curb to back -of -curb) shall be considered
for installation of traffic calming devices. Any functionally -classified "through
street" identified in the City's Code of Ordinances Section 53-251 or other
street which has function to substantially serve through traffic immediately
abutting residential subdivisions shall not qualify.
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNAUERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
Apri120, 1998 1:24PM
2
Diverter traffic calming devices shall not be installed on a functional
neighborhood collector street
3. The street shall have a posted or prima facie speed limit of 30 mph or less
determined in accordance with the City's method of establishing speed zones.
4. A street shall be shown to have an average (85th percentile) travel speed above
the legal speed limit to be eligible for a speed hump or mini -traffic circle.
5. Speed humps and traffic diverters shall not be located in a horizontal curve or
on a vertical curve where visibility is restricted.
The street should have curb and gutter. Consideration may be given to streets
without curb and gutter if it is determined that street drainage can be
accommodated and that it will be possible to prevent vehicle run-arounds.
The street shall be approved by each of the Fire Department and Police
Department for installation of the traffic calming device. After a petition or
request is received, and upon determination by the Traffic Engineering Division
that a street or streets have the necessary physical and geometric characteristics
to qualify for a traffic calming device, a layout of the subdivision will be
forwarded to the Fire and Police Departments for their identification of streets
which must be kept free of any traffic calming devices. Unless each of the Fire
and Police Departments approves a traffic calming on the project street, no
physical traffic calming devices will be allowed on the project street.
If the street is a transit route, it shall be reviewed and approved by the Corpus
Christi Regional Transportation Authority (RTA).
The average daily two-way traffic demand on the street shall be not less than
400 vehicles per day (averaged over not less than a three -weekday time period).
10. Traffic calming device shall not be installed in front of an opponent's property.
11. Mini -traffic circles necessitating additional right-of-way shall be considered only
at locations where the property owners agree to dedicated easements for the
widened corners.
B. Operational and Geometric Characteristics of the Street -- Consideration of
Passive (Time Regulated Access Restriction) Devices.
The following basic criteria would be used to determine justification for an access
restriction:
1. a time regulated access restriction will be limited to not more than six hours
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNA\JERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw) 3
April 20, 1998 1:24PM
during any one day,
2. petition initiated by and signed by 90% of property owners abutting the street
block under consideration,
3. street must be functionally -classified residential street (excluding neighborhood
collector streets),
4. traffic demand on the street exceeds 750 vehicles per day (average weekday),
5. peak hour through traffic on street exceeds 50% of the total peak hour traffic,
6. the 85th -percentile traffic speed on the street exceeds the legal speed limit, and
7. City Traffic Engineer determines that an equally acceptable and reasonable
alternative traffic route of higher functional classification is available to
accommodate traffic denied access at the restricted street and would not
negatively impact any other residential street.
C. Design Standards for Speed Humps
1. Dimension and cross-section:
a. Two types of speed hump designs, circular or flat-topped, shall be
considered. The circular speed hump will generally be approximately
12 feet long and have the cross-section of a segment of a circle with a
maximum height of 3 inches at the center. The flat-topped speed hump
will generally be approximately 22 feet long consisting of a 10 -foot long
plateau with 6 -foot long circular arc approaches on either side. This
flat-topped speed hump will be 3 inches in height.
b. The cross-section design of a speed hump will depend on the traffic
calming design speed objective for a particular project street. The
following design speed objectives shall apply:
• 30 MPH Design -- for typical residential streets without any unique
development or geometric features ***
• 25 MPH Design -- for streets abutting public parks/playgrounds, on
streets which have horizontal curvature designed for this speed, or other
type development which in the opinion of the City Traffic Engineer may
generate an above average level of child pedestrian activity.
• 20 MPH Design -- for street sections immediately abutting elementary
schools or streets which have horizontal curvature designed for this
speed.
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNAUERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
April 20, 1998 1:24PM 4
• 15 MPH Design -- used only on approaches to street sections having
horizontal curvature designed for this speed.
***Note: The City Traffic Engineer may consider unusual levels of
traffic accident experience to apply a design speed objective lower than
30 MPH on any typical residential street.
• On streets with curbs, humps should extend fully across the road from
curb joint to curb joint. A 12 -inch minimum taper may be considered
for drainage. For humps installed on non -curbed roadways special
treatment such as delineator posts or other approved traffic control
device should be considered to prevent vehicle run-arounds.
2. Spacing and Location
Speed humps will usually be placed between 200 feet to 600 feet apart at the
discretion of the City Traffic Engineer. Other spacing may be used based upon
engineering judgement. The following guidelines will be considered when
determining speed hump spacing but may be adjusted at the discretion of the
City Traffic Engineer due to local circumstances in each case.
a. On single short blocks (less than 600 feet) a single hump positioned
near mid -point shall be considered.
b. On single blocks of moderate length (601 - 1,200 feet), a two hump
configuration shall be considered.
c. On very long single blocks (exceeding 1,200 feet), no more than three
humps shall be considered.
d. On lengthy continuous street segments or for humps provided over a
series of blocks, interior humps shall be placed 400 feet to 600 feet
apart.
The following points shall be considered when locating speed humps (or other traffic
calming device):
a. Speed hump will not be located in front of a driveway or within an
intersection. Speed humps will not be located within 100 feet of an
intersection.
b. The first hump in a series should be installed within approximately 200
feet downstream of a stop sign.
c. Speed humps will not be located over, or contain, manholes, or be
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNAV ERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
April 20, 1998 1:24PM
5
located adjacent to fire hydrants or driveways.
d. For humps located near drainage inlets, the hump will be placed just
downstream of the inlet. If this is not feasible, special treatment must
be considered for drainage.
e. If possible, humps will be located on property lines rather than directly
in front of a residence.
f. The advantage of existing or potential street lighting should be taken
into account when determining hump locations.
Traffic Control
Traffic control consisting of signs, pavement markings and enhanced street
lighting should be provided to advise roadway users of a speed hump's
presence and to guide their subsequent action. Traffic signs and pavement
markings shall conform to the Texas Manual of Uniform Traffic Control and
Devices (MUTCD) standards.
D. Diverter and Traffic Circle Design Standards
The diverter and traffic circle traffic calming devices shall be constructed in
accordance with the standards developed and maintained by the City's Traffic
Engineering Division. Variations may be made by the City Traffic Engineer for
varying roadway geometry and right-of-way limitations.
E. Project Prioritization Criteria
Traffic calming device projects shall be ranked according to the criteria established
in this section. Projects will be assigned points on the basis of existing speeds and
volumes, average number of speed related accidents documented by the Corpus
Christi Police Department (CCPD), proximity of abutting public park area, and
presence of school and/or other special pedestrian generators in the area. The project
accumulating the greatest number of points shall be assigned the highest priority.
Among projects with the same rank, higher priority will be given to the one with the
earliest application date. The City may revise priorities on the basis of continuing
traffic accident experience which has occurred beyond the time the initial evaluation
and priority ranking had been completed.
Accident Criteria
All accidents considered for point assignment shall have causative factors
(including, but not limited to excessive travel speed) which have a strong
likelihood for mitigation by one or more traffic calming devices.

Section 53-85 Project prioritization
Speed hump, traffic diverter, and mini traffic circle projects satisfying the above criteria will
be prioritized on a citywide basis using the criteria developed by the Traffic Engineering Office,
Section 53-84.
Section 53-86 Citizen cost participation responsibility
The cost for speed hump installation(including signs, pavement markings, and if necessary,
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNA1JERRY\ORD)005.ORD (dkw)
April20, 1998 1:24PM
9
special features) may be shared between the City and the residents. Cost-sharing criteria shall be used
to determine the residents' share of the installation cost, according to the cost -share criteria identified
in Section 53-89.
A. City staff will submit a statement to the requestor(s) of each approved project
indicating the estimated total installation cost, City's cost share (if any), residents'
cost share (if any), and the project's ranking on the priority list. If the project does
not receive high enough priority to receive full or partial City funding, yet still satisfies
the City's eligibility criteria (Section 53-84. A) and accumulates at least four (4)
criteria ranking points, residents will have the option to voluntarily pay for the full
installation cost.
The residents' cost share is that percentage of the total cost which is not the City's
responsibility. One or more residents may pay this share or it may come from other
private sources -- the exact manner of which would be left to the residents.
For projects eligible for partial City funding, it will be the responsibility of the
requester(s) to ensure the residents' cost share is deposited with the City not less than
ninety (90) days prior to the planned date of installation. If the City does not receive
the residents' cost share within this time, the project will be removed from the priority
list. In such case, a new petition must be submitted if the neighborhood wants to be
considered for installation of a traffic calming device in the next fiscal year. Other
guaranteed payment procedures may be offered to cover the residents' cost share,
at the discretion of the City.
Residents will be permitted to expedite the traffic calming device installation by
voluntarily paying the full installation as long as the project street satisfies the
minimum eligibility requirements (Section 53-84).
Section 53-87 Design, construction, maintenance, removal and alteration
A. Design standards and installation procedures for speed humps, traffic diverters, mini -
traffic circles and related features, such as signs and pavement markings shall be
prepared by the Traffic Engineering Office (Refer to Appendix C). Construction of
speed humps, traffic diverters and mini -traffic circles will be administered by the
Traffic Engineering Office in conjunction with the City's Street Service Department
or by contract installation, at the discretion of the City. The City of Corpus Christi
will maintain the speed humps and traffic diverters and all related features.
Landscaping within mini traffic circles shall be approved by the City's Department of
Park & Recreation and maintained, through mutual letter of understanding with the
organized neighborhood association, by the project applicants.
The process for speed hump or traffic diverter alteration or removal requested by the
residents shall be the same as the process for installation, except that there will be no
City participation in the cost incurred. A petition approved by the neighborhood
association, documenting that at least two-thirds (2/3) of all the households and
businesses adjacent to the speed hump or traffic diverter street are in favor of the
H:U,EG-DIR\DIANNAUERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
April 20, 1998 1:24PM
10
devices' removal, shall be required.
C. In case the Traffic Engineering Office determines that an unforseen problem has
resulted due to the hump, diverter or mini traffic circle, it may be redesigned or
removed by the City. In such case, the City will bear the full cost of removal and
restoration of the street to original condition.
Section 53-88 Traffic calming device study process
The following items describe the procedure to be followed for speed hump or traffic diverter
installation:
A. Project Request
Request for speed hump or traffic diverter installation can be initiated by any one
individual, group of residents, or neighborhood association. A request shall be sent
in writing to the City Traffic Engineer.
Preliminary Review of Citizen / Neighborhood Request
After a request for a traffic calming device has been received, City staff will
conduct an initial investigation of the street's eligibility in regards to the
operational and geometric characteristics (Section 53-84. A). The Fire and
Police Department will be forwarded a copy of the petition and subdivision
layout, following determination of the initial investigation that the basic
criteria is satisfied, for these department's review and specification of any
streets which should not have calming devices.
If the operational and geometric requirements for eligibility are not met, or
if the Fire and Police Departments do not approve the request, the street shall
not be considered for the traffic calming device and the requester(s) will be
notified.
If after initial investigation, it is determined that the street qualified for the
traffic calming device, a petition and an endorsement statement for the
neighborhood association (if applicable) shall be mailed to the requester(s).
The project requester(s) will be responsible for circulating the petition in the
petition area.
4. If the approved petition and endorsement statement for the neighborhood
association (if applicable) is received by the specified date, City staff shall
conduct a field investigation and collect preliminary data, including traffic
volumes and speeds.
An approved project street will be placed on the list of streets eligible for the
traffic calming device installation. A priority ranking will be assigned to the
street according to Project Prioritization Criteria identified in Section 53-89.
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNAUERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
April 20, 1998 1:24PM
11
C. Petition Requirement / Process
1. The petition area may be extended by the City Traffic Engineer to include
nearby streets which may see an increase in traffic as a result of this project.
This "petition area" will be defined by the City's Traffic Engineering Office.
It is intended that the petition is to be presented by residents on a project
block section or block sections, dependent on the perceived impact the traffic
calming device(s) would have on upstream and downstream block sections.
2. A petition from the residents and business owners within the defined petition
area documenting that at least two-thirds of all households adjacent to the
project street support the installation of a traffic calming device for the study
to proceed further. Multi -family dwellings with more than four units shall be
counted as one household, with the property owner or manager representing
the household. If a household is occupied by a renter, the property owner of
that household is responsible for signing the petition. Consideration of mini -
traffic circles will only be considered for petitions from organized
neighborhood (property owner) associations, including a letter stating the long
term commitment of the association for continual maintenance of any
approved landscaping within the traffic circle.
3. A statement from the neighborhood association endorsing a mini -traffic circle
and its committment to continually maintain any landscaping on the mini -
traffic circle, if the mini -circle is the targeted calming device.
D. Appeal Process
1. Any citizen, group of citizens, or neighborhood association contesting the
point ranking, relative priority to other approved traffic calming projects, or
disapproval rendered by the City Traffic Engineer, and/or the interpretation
or application of any criteria, described herein, by the City Traffic Engineer
for a requested or petitioned traffic calming project may file an appeal with the
City Traffic Engineer on the prescribed appeal form, within ten (10) days after
a notice of project rating and related decision regarding the requested or
petitioned project has been provided to the requesting citizen, group of
citizens, or neighborhood association.
2. In such case of an appeal, a hearing shall be scheduled before the City's
Transportation Advisory Committee in its first available monthly meeting
following receipt of the appeal, or contingent on satisfying proper legal notice
requirements for posting of the Committee's meeting agenda. Upon
conducting the hearing, including any supplemental information the appellant
may wish to present, the Transportation Advisory Committee shall make a
recommendation to the City Council on the appeal.
H:\LEG-DIR\DIANNAVERRY\ORD\005.ORD (dkw)
April 20, 1998 1:24PM
12
The City Manager shall set the date of such hearing before the City Council,
and the City Council will have final authority on the appealed project rating
and decision for what traffic calming devices, if any, will be authorized.
Section 53-89 Funding for approved traffic calming projects
A. City funds will be allocated once a year, after the Residential Traffic Management
Neighborhood Program budget request is prepared by the Engineering Services
Department. During a fiscal year, City funding will proceed in descending order from
the top of priority list. Project requests received during a fiscal year (with completed
studies) shall be eligible for funding during the same fiscal year.
B. During the formulation of each fiscal year budget, the Department of Engineering
Services shall recommend an annual operating budget for the Residential Traffic
Management Program based on pending eligible projects waiting to be undertaken
plus additional projects estimated to be requested for the budget year. The City
Council will approve an annual operating budget for each fiscal year.
Once an approved project street is listed on the priority list, it will be considered for
funding up to three consecutive years. If after three years a project has not been
constructed (whether due to limited funds or a low priority rating), a recertification
of support for the traffic calming device will be required. This time limit ensures that
the project request has not become obsolete because of changing traffic conditions
and/or support of new residents in the area. The project requester(s) and the
neighborhood association will be notified when the three-year time limit expires.
Recertification of the petition may result in the project receiving a different (higher
or lower) relative priority with other approved projects. If the recertification process
fails to support the project, the project will be removed from the priority list. A new
request may be made to re-enter the project after six months of the recertification
effort, and, in such case, the usual procedures will be followed.
Of the City's annual allocated funds, which may vary from year-to-year, 70% will be
reserved for projects requiring 100% City financing. The remainder of the allocated
City funds will be reserved for projects which require cost sharing by the residents.
The funding split of 70% and 30% is subject to revision based on the need to
undertake highest priority projects. City funding participating will proceed in
descending order from the top of the priority list until all annual funds are allocated
to projects.
Upon receipt of residents' share (if any) and allotment of City's share (if any), the
selected traffic calming device shall be installed as scheduling permits. Once funds
have been committed for a particular project, the funding shall not be withdrawn
unless so requested in writing by the petitioner(s). The construction of the traffic
calming device and the associated placement of signs and markings shall conform to
the current design standards as established by the Traffic Engineering Division.
