Whenever any ordinance of this Town designates
and describes a through street, it shall be the duty of the Highway
Department 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 signs; provided, however, that at the intersection of two
such through 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 the streets as may be determined by
the Chief of Police upon the basis of an engineering and traffic study.
The Chief of Police is hereby authorized to
determine and designate intersections where particular hazard exists
upon other than through streets and to determine:
A. Whether 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. Whether 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 thereto
is required.
The streets or parts of streets or highways
described in the following schedule are hereby designated as through
streets. Stop signs shall be installed on the near right side of each
street intersecting the through street except where yield signs having
sides 36 inches in length are provided for in the designations.
