(Ord. 10-80. Passed 2-4-80.) (b) Other streets or highways or portions thereof within the Municipality, with a continuous length of more than one mile between the limits of such street or highway or portion thereof, at the entrances to which vehicular traffic from the majority of intersecting streets or highways is controlled by "stop" or "yield" signs or traffic control signals are hereby designated as through streets or highways. For purposes of this section, the limits of such street or highway or portion thereof shall be a municipal corporation line, the physical terminus of the street or highway or any point on such street or highway at which vehicular traffic thereon is required by regulatory signs to stop or yield to traffic on the intersecting street, provided that in residence districts the Municipality may erect either stop signs or other official traffic control devices at an intersecting street and thereafter designate by ordinance or rule such street or highway or portion thereof not to be a through street or highway. (c) The Director of Public Safety shall erect stop signs or yield signs on all streets intersecting such through highways, except as otherwise herein specifically provided, and shall also erect stop signs at one or more entrances to any intersection designated as a stop intersection by the terms of this Traffic Code.
