Signage: One-Way Streets
Converting two-way streets to one-way streets can help reduce cut-through traffic when there is a dominant direction in traffic flow.
 |
Advantages
- Reduces high volume of non-local traffic that uses the street as a shortcut
Disadvantages
- Residents may be inconvenienced by the one-way flow
- Drivers may disregard the one-way sign and drive into oncoming traffic
- The cut-through traffic may be diverted to parallel streets
- Pedestrians are less likely to check for vehicles approaching from the wrong direction
Eligibility Considerations
- 90% of adjacent property owners must agree
- Review and approval by the San Antonio Police and Fire Departments
- Requestor(s) and residents must acknowledge that the one-way designation would be permanent
