Those streets and parts of streets described
in Schedule 2 and made a part hereof are hereby declared to be through
streets for the purpose of this section.
Whenever this chapter designates and describes
a through street, it shall be the duty of the Traffic Engineer to
place and maintain a stop sign, or on the basis of an engineering
and traffic investigation at any intersection, a yield sign, on each
and every street intersecting such through street, unless traffic
at any such intersection is controlled at all times by traffic control
signals; provided, however, that at the intersection of two such streets
or at the intersection of a through street and a heavy traffic street
not so designated, stop signs shall be erected at the approaches of
either of said streets, as may be determined by the Traffic Engineer,
upon the basis of an engineering and traffic study.
The Traffic Engineer is hereby authorized to
determine and designate intersections where a particular hazard exists
upon other than through streets and to determine whether:
A. Vehicles shall stop at one or more entrances to any
such intersection, in which event he shall cause to be erected a stop
sign at every such place where a stop is required; or
B. Vehicles shall yield the right-of-way to vehicles
on a different street at such intersection, in which event he shall
cause to be erected a yield sign at every place where obedience is
required.
On state-aid and state highways, the designation
of through streets and the installation of stop and yield signs are
subject to State Highway Commission approval.
