Require a detailed safety analysis for the 'Entrance Permit' and 'highway turn off' on Highway 17 mentioned in Section 18.4 and Table 18.3.
Strategic Rationale
The text identifies the need for permits under the Public Transportation and Highway Improvement Act for access to Highway 17. Since Melgund lacks local police services for traffic enforcement, the physical design of this intersection is the primary safety control. The Working Group must ensure the design accounts for heavy industrial loads and high-speed traffic to prevent accidents, particularly given the lack of local emergency medical response. A robust design minimizes the probability of accidents that the community is ill-equipped to handle.
