The typical section of Shroyer Road averages 44 feet between the face of existing curbs. Sidewalk (5 feet wide) exists on both sides of Shroyer Road. The tree lawn varies between 2 and 3 feet wide within the majority of the study area. The pavement wearing surface is asphalt but the roadway base is concrete. Joint failures of the concrete result in cracking of the asphalt surface which requires sealant.

All intersections within the City of Oakwood study area are unsignalized intersections. Traffic control consists of side street stop control at all unsignalized intersections; traffic on Shroyer Road has right of way and does not yield to cross street traffic.

Intersection sight distance is restricted at several intersections within the study area including Wonderly Avenue, Aberdeen Avenue (see Photo #2), Wiltshire Boulevard, Monteray Avenue, and others. Trees, shrubs, and embankment behind the sidewalk (west side) all contribute to restricted sight distance of approaching vehicles. The obstructions limiting sight distance are located outside of the public right-of-way.
