Proj.#: Project Name: MO-76 and Lakeshore Dr
Project Type: Traffic Safety Total Score 71.0 out of 100
Project Description: Improve intersection to address safety issues. Improvements
include possible turn lanes, raised islands, and modified traffic control. A continuous
Green-T intersection could also be considered at this location.

Status: Planning and Design 2018 Length: NA
Project Scale: Medium Roadway or Intersection Intersection
Functional Classification: Minor Arterial (for the major street)
Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 16,700 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Daily Truck Traffic: 334 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: Both roads are two lane roads. MO-76 hs a high volume of traffic.
There are no turn lanes on MO-76. The intersection is large and is not level (it slopes
from northeast to southwest). The curvature of the road and grade limit sight lines to the
east. Lakeshore is stop controlled. The posted speed on MO-76 is 35 mph, though the
85th percentile traffic liekly exceeds that speed. Left turn traffic during peak periods can
have a longer than desirable delay. Traffic volumes fluctuate with seasonal activity and
may meet signal warrants during peak times.

Proj. #: 1-10 Project Name: US 65 Upgrade to Freeway Standards
Project Type: Capacity Total Score| 66.2 | out of 100 ~
Project Description: Upgrade Highway 65 to meet freeway standards throughout Taney
County. Upgrades would include improving Hwy 65 access points to grade-seprated
interchanges. This includes four intersections in the southern part of the county and up
to three in the northern part of the county (though some access consolidation may be
necesary). Some segment improvements signage upgrades may also be required.
Status: Planning Length: NA miles

Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 20,611 2015 MoDOT Vehicle Count Map
Daily Truck Traffic: 1,390 2015 MoDOT Vehicle Count Map
Through Lanes: 4 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: Highway 65 is the primary north-south highway through Taney
County. It was upgraded to 4-lanes with a median in the 1990's. Several grade-
separated interchanges have also been built; however, there are seven at-grade
intersections that still remain. These intersections must be upgraded to full grade-
seprated interchanges or closed to meet Interstate standards. Other design features
such as fencing, signage, ramp tapers, and clear-zones must also be examined and
possibly improved. The focus of the evaluation is on the southern four intersections.

Proj. #: 1-14 Project Name: Hwy 86 Corridor
Project Type: Capacity Total Score| 63.1 | out of 100
Project Description: Improve Highway 86 between Hwy 65 and the Long Creek Bridge
by adding lanes and improving geometry. Project would also add an interchange at Hwy
65 and extend the road to the Branson Airport.

Status: Planning Length: 6.5 miles
Project Scale: Regional Roadway or Intersection Roadway
Functional Classification: Major Arterial (for the m ajor street)
Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 5,008 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Daily Truck Traffic: 1,679 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: Project need has been increased due to development in the
Branson Creek and Big Cedar areas as well as the development of the Thunder Ridge

Proj. #: 3-7 Project Name: US-160 Widening through Forsyth
Project Type: Capacity Total Score| 73.4 | out of 100
Project Description: Widen US 160 from west of the Hwy 76 Intersection to Casey
Road. The widening would add a center two-way left-turn lane through the center of
Forsyth. It is assumed that the widening project will also include appropriate pedestrian
improvements. Existing stormwater ditches may have to be converted to an enclosed
system.
Status: Planning Length: 2.8 miles
Project Scale: Large Roadway or Intersection Roadway
Functional Classification: Minor Arterial (for the major street)
Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 9,500 (est. 2012, avg. for major street)
Daily Truck Traffic: 475 (est. 2012, avg. for major street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: This portion of US-160 has daily traffic volumes of between 8,500
and 10,500. It is the main street through Forsyth and is important for both local and
through traffic. There are safety, access, and capacity issues on this highway. The
addition of a center two-way left-turn lane as well as possible access improvements and
consolidations would help address these issues.

Proj. #: 4-1 Project Name: F Hwy and US-160 Intersection
Project Type: Traffic Safety Total Score 65.6 I out of 100
Project Description: Improve intersection alignment and traffic control. A roundabout
could be considered. This could reduce speeds, while limiting vehicle stops. It could also
possibly reduce sight distance concerns. Intersection may also need a high friction
surface to reduce accidents.

Status: Planning 2016 Length: NA
Project Scale: Small Roadway or Intersection Intersection
Functional Classification: Minor Arterial (for the m ajor street)
Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 10,500 (est. 2012, avg. for m ajor street)
Daily Truck Traffic: 530 (est. 2012, avg. for m ajor street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on m ajor street)
Project Discussion: The locations of the heavy volumes highlight the need to install a
roundabout. Truck traffic was estimated at 5% based on a truck count on Hwy F west of
the intersection. This is the only east-west connection within Taney County between the
communities north of the river and US-65. Nearly all east-west traffic between these
areas passes through this intersection. The traffic volumes appear to meet signal
warrants, but a detailed study is in order.

Project Description: Improve intersection alignment and traffic control. Could include
construction of a roundabout or installation of a traffic signal if warranted. Roundabout
could potentially reduce speeds without increasing vehicle stops and delay. Adequate
sight distance should be provided (especially east and west) and driveways may need to
be relocated and/or consolidated.

Project Discussion: Both roadways are two-lanes. The northbound approach is stop
controlled; however, it splits with traffic on both sides of the island as shown on the figure
to the right. There is also a grade differential, with the northbound approach traveling up
to meet the east-west through street (US-160). In planning for improvements to this
intersection, the speed of traffic approaching the intersection should be taken into
account. The posted speed on US-160 is 55 mph and the posted speed on MO-176 is 45
mph. The traffic volumes at this location appear to meet or be near meeting peak hour

Project Discussion: Both roadways are two-lane roads. There are no turn lanes at the
intersection. There was one fatal crash at the location, a head-on crash related to one
vehicle passing another vehicle. MoDOT traffic counts indicate that this intersection
likely does not meet the signal warrant thresholds. Turn lanes may be the best option for
improving safety at this location. A turn lane was added, but the geometry of the curve
and the guardrail proximity to the road have resulted in more accidents.

Project Discussion: This has become a heavily traveled road as Branson has continued to grow. Provides
an alternative route to commercial areas and residential areas. Two “T" intersections are in need of “near-
term" safety attention due to sight distance/speed concerns: 1) the intersection at Branson Hills Parkway and
2) the intersection at Buchanan Road. The intersection at Branson Hills Parkway has temporary placarding
placed to address this accident-prone location and is a candidate for installation o f signalization due to
significantly increased commercial and residential traffic. The intersection at Buchanan Road is also a
candidate for signalization due high traffic of school buses and student related auto traffic (Branson H.S.,
Intermediate School, Elementary School).

Proj. #: 5-7 Project Name: Buchanan Rd and Sunrise Dr Intersection
Project Type: Traffic Safety Total S c o re| 37.8 | out of 100
Project Description: Improve intersection alignment and traffic control. Re-align the
through movement to connect Sunrise Dr in the north with Buchanan Rd in the west and
convert Sunrise Dr. northbound (south leg) to stop control. Alternativey, install a
roundabout. This may address the same issues more cost effectively.

Daily Truck Traffic: 140 (est. 2012, avg. for major street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: Buchanan Rd is the location of the Branson High School,
Intermediate School, and Elementary School as well as the Taney County Transfer
Station. Traffic is heavy at peak times when school is in session. The south leg of
Sunrise Dr has only a handful of residences. The locations of the heavy volumes
highlight the need to adjust the through movement and/or install a roundabout. A
roundabout offers the benefit of reducing speeds, while limiting vehicle stops. It also
could limit the amount of new right-of-way. The final design should ensure adequate
sight distance and relocate driveways as needed.

Project Description: Improve alignment to eliminate sharp curves (especially the curve
in the middle of the roadway segment). A signal installation at MO-165 was also
proposed.

Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: Safari Road is a two-lane road with few access points. It is
particularly winding where it crosses the valley in the middle of the segment. There are
no posted speed limits, so it was assumed that a 25 mph limit applied. The traffic volume
at the intersection of Safari Road and MO-165 was examined in a very preliminary
manner with respect to traffic signal warrants. Based on the estimated ADTs, it appears
it is near the peak hour warrant threshold. Traffic counts will be required to determine if
the intersection fully meets one or more warrants. It may be good to split these two
projects unless the entire eastern portion of the road is to be upgraded.

Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 9100 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Daily Truck Traffic: 460 (estimated, avg. for major street)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: The intersection is stop controlled on the side-streets. The posted
speed limit is 40 mph. There are left-turn lanes in both directions on MO-165. There are
also turn lanes for the north-south direction. The intersection appears to function
acceptably during most hours of the day; however during peak periods some side-street
drivers have to wait longer than desired. A sample count indicated that the location may
be close to meeting signal warrants. This is especially true if the high-speed (> 40 mph)
thresholds are employed. A speed study and traffic counts could be conducted to
determine if the warrants are met. A roundabout could also be considered.

Proj. #: 7-8 Project Name: Happy Hollow
Project Type: Traffic Safety Total Score| 41.8 | out of 100
Project Description: Improve the roadway to address the section that floods when
Table Rock Lake level is high. This involves raising approximately 230 LF of roadway a
maximum of 10 feet.

Status: Verbal Corps Approval Length: 0.36 miles
Project Scale: Medium Roadway or Intersection Roadway
Functional Classification: Collector (for the major street)
Avg. Annual Daily Traffic (AADT): 25 (est. 2020, Count)
Daily Truck Traffic: 1 (est. 2020, Count)
Through Lanes: 2 (through lanes on major street)
Project Discussion: The closure of this roadway during high water events impacts local
residential traffic and causes traffic to have to re-route. This affects emergency response
times and general travel. The roadway appears to be in relatively good condition with
regards to pavement. The flooding is relatively infrequent.
