Title and Brief Description Shaulis Road Recreation Area Traffic Safety Enhancement: More people die in traffic accidents at night than during the day, even though people drive a lot less at night. Signs that are not maintained well or are inadequate contribute to nighttime crashes. Internally illuminated street name signs are proposed at Shaulis Road & 218, Shaulis Road & Dysart Road, and Shaulis Road & Isle of Capri Boulevard to improve safety. Internally illuminated signs also improve aesthetics and provide for easy and convenient way finding. They will particularly help our growing elderly population. Internally illuminated street name signs have a better chance of attracting drivers' attention. They will result in timely and safer lane change maneuvers. They are seen well in dark hours and during inclement weather conditions. To enhance Waterloo's image as a modern progressive municipality hosting entertainment and recreational enterprises and developments, this area needs to be accented and differentiated from the other places. Internally illuminated street name signs provide an aesthetically pleasing environment and a landmark for returning drivers. Waterloo will be one of the first places in the state to use such signs to enhance the traffic safety and aesthetics of an area. 1 1 This project is a small step towards making Cedar Valley a stronger, better place to live. It enhances the existing public facilities. It falls within several areas of the Gaming Association's intended use of the grant funds. It is a public works capital improvement project and is a new initiative in the Cedar Valley.
