Minimum horizontal curve radii shall be consistent
with a thirty-mile-per-hour design speed. Waivers from this shall
only be granted following preliminary approval when the proposed road
has been rough graded and inspected/reviewed in the field by the Town
Engineer. Any substandard curves that are accepted shall be required
to be posted with yellow signs by the Town Engineer.
All sight easement areas are to remain free
of any man-made or natural objects that would prohibit a free line
of sight of 300 feet to 400 feet measured along the center line of
the road. There shall be no plantings, fences or other objects within
this easement that exceed two feet in height. Easements shall be cleared
prior to the issuance of building permits for new subdivision lots,
while existing lots may have their sight easements cleared after a
building permit has been issued but prior to a certificate of occupancy.
Sight easements shall be topsoiled, seeded and mulched.
The developer shall furnish and install a four-way
road name sign at every road intersection made by the roads he/she
constructs. Signs and posts shall conform to the standards established
by the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices of New York State
(See Figure 16.)
All signs, signals, markings and other control
devices for the maintenance and protection of traffic must conform
to the requirements of the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices
of New York State and shall be installed by the developer where directed
by the Town.
Roof and cellar drains shall in no case be allowed
to flow onto the highway right-of-way. With the approval of the Town
Superintendent of Highways and Town Engineer, in writing, these drains
may be piped to the roadway stormwater pipe drain, to which they shall
be connected on top only. Such drains must be installed prior to the
start of fine grading of the roadway.
