A citizen requested a review of the school zones due to the lack of pedestrian presence. Transportation Engineering Division staff monitored the intersection during the designated school zone hours and did not find any students crossing within either of the school zones. Staff reached out to the Plano Independent School District, and they indicated the school zone is no longer necessary based on their review and internal discussion. The Transportation Engineering Division of the City of Plano recommends an amendment to Section 12-73 (d) of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Plano, Texas to remove the school zones on Los Rios Boulevard and Los Robles Drive. |
