That is, the total volume of vehicles entering the in- tersection must average at least 500 vehicles per hour for any 8 hours of an average day and the combined vehicular and pedestrian volume from the minor street must average at least 200 units per hour for the same 8 hours with an average delay to minor street vehicular traffic of at least 20 seconds per vehicle during the maximum hour. Resuits of the count showed that the traffie volume had actually decreased from 56 vehicles per hour during the 8 hour peak period to 49 vehicles per hour in the June, 1985 count. Neither count ap- proached the 500 vehicles per hour minimum which would warrant this type of stop.
