Hello Nobhill Board,

I wanted to reach out and ask if members of your board have discussed the proposed traffic study? Specifically, does your board/neighborhood agree with the proposed plan? If so, have you had a chance to discuss which intersections your neighborhood wants to be measured (need to choose 6 for Nobhill side)?

The UHA is in the process of finalizing our choice of the intersections. I'll update Nobhill board once we are ready to move forward, which we hope will be soon. 

Thank you,

Hello UHA/Nobhill NA board members,

I met with Pat Davis last Monday evening and this is an outline of what we discussed and a possible route forward in regards to getting a traffic study done quickly.

We can get a traffic study done by Spring/Summer time if we are willing to limit our scope of focus to district 6 (UHA and Nobhill), limit the data collection sites, and focus on only a few metrics (listed below). That being said, this is what an expedited plan would look like:

1) Area: Lead and Coal intersections from Washington to Yale.
2) Metrics:
a) collisions (w/ other vehicles, property, peds, etc.)
b) traffic count (average, busy times, slow times)
c) over-sized vehicle count (18-wheelers etc)
d) average speeds of vehicles
e) noise decibel levels
3) Sites of measurement: ​We must agree on 10-12 (5-6 per street) site locations to measure the data for the study. This is something we will all need to come together on to get to the next step in the process.
4) ​Solutions: Ultimately the data from the study should guide the specific solutions to the the specific issues we are having at the specific places they are happening. In the meantime it may be beneficial to get more APD traffic cops on our streets to mitigate the speed problems.

If you all agree on this plan we must come together in a reasonable amount of time to get the study done by time the Mayor appoints a director of DMD. I am told that pollution (from tailpipe exhaust) is not really possible to measure from a street of cars because the concentration would be too low to measure. Please reach out to Pat Davis's (CC'd on this email) office on the feasibility of any metrics not listed. In regards to the locations of the sites, it seems to be fair to split the 10-12 over each neighborhood (5-6 each) but I will let everyone chime in on this.

Nobhill residents: UHA is having its annual neighborhood meeting Sunday 10/28/2018 at 3pm @ 210 Yale Blvd SE, Albuquerque, NM 87106. Please join us as we talk with Pat Davis, a rep from the Mayor, and APD.

Feel free to forward this on.

Thank you,
