Antioch Municipal Code Art. 9 Special Stops

Whenever any ordinance or resolution of the city designates and describes any street, or portion thereof, as a through street, or any intersection that the City Traffic Engineer, after appropriate study and surveys, finds that placement of stop signs is necessary for the safe and orderly flow of traffic, or any railroad grade crossing at which vehicles are required to stop, the City Traffic Engineer shall erect and maintain stop signs as follows: a stop sign shall be erected on each and every street intersecting such through street, or portion thereof, so designated, at those entrances to other intersections where a stop is required, and at any railroad grade crossing so designated; provided, however, stop signs shall not be erected or maintained at any entrance to an intersection when such entrance is controlled by an official traffic control signal. Every such sign shall conform with and shall be placed as provided in the California Vehicle Code.
