Gifford Neighborhood Plan 2014 <br /> The County Traffic Engineering Division keeps a list of all accidents at all intersections. If an intersection has 4 or more crashes per <br /> year, Traffic Engineering will analyze ways to reduce the number of crashes at that intersection. According to Traffic Engineering <br /> 2012 accident data, the only intersection in Gifford that had 4 or more crashes that year was 45th Street and U.S. 41. According to a <br /> 2000 accident report, there were six intersections in Gifford with more than 4 accidents per year. Therefore, there was improvement <br /> based on a significant reduction in the number of Gifford intersections having more than 4 accidents per year. <br /> Sidewalks <br /> Gifford is similar to much of the unincorporated County in that sidewalks generally do not exist along local roads. Even along major <br /> roads, sidewalks are not currently continuous and connected. Those roads with insufficient sidewalk are identified in the MPO's <br /> Bicycle/Pedestrian Plan as needing sidewalks. County policy is to have sidewalks constructed along major roads in conjunction with <br /> development projects and road projects. Table 9 below shows an inventory of the existing sidewalks along major roadways in the <br /> Gifford area. <br /> Currently, FDOT is funding construction of 43rd Avenue sidewalks from 41st Street to the Airport West entrance. In the future, <br /> FDOT will also fund the next extension, from Airport West to Aviation Boulevard. Also, sidewalks along Old Dixie Hwy south of <br /> 45th Street will be under construction soon. <br /> Table 9 <br /> Sidewalk Inventory in Gifford Area <br /> On Street From Street To Street Percent of Segments Percent of Segments <br /> with Sidewalks on North with Sidewalks on South <br /> or East Side or West Side <br /> 10 ° <br /> 411 Street 66'Avenue 58 Avenue 100 ° <br /> n Street 58'Avenue 43'Avenue 5 ° <br /> 41'Street 43`d Avenue Old Dixie Hwy 0 0 <br /> 41'Street Old Dixie Hwy U.S. 1 5 <br /> U.S. 1 Indian River Blvd. ° <br /> 41n Street � 100 100 <br /> 43`d Avenue 41'Street 45 Street 45 50 <br /> 43'd Avenue 45'Street 49'Street 50 0 <br /> 451 Street 66'Avenue 58'Avenue 0 5 <br /> 45'Street 58'Avenue 43`a <br /> Avenue 100 ° <br /> 45d'Street 50 <br /> 43`d Avenue Old Dixie Hwy 0 <br /> 45t'Street Old Dixie Hwy U.S. 1 0 0 <br /> 491 Street 66'Avenue 58'Avenue 0 40 <br /> 491 Street 58"Avenue 43`d Avenue <br /> Indian River County 39 <br /> Community Development <br />
