CITY OF SAN BERN/ IDINO - REQUEST F( Z COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
A request was received from the Fire Department for an
evaluation of the adequacy of the existing traffic control
measures at the intersection of Cajon Boulevard and Palm
Avenue/Institution Road. This request was made because of the
calls thev have received to respond to traffic accidents in this
area.
An evaluation of this intersection was accordingly done
by our Traffic Engineering Section. This intersection is
presently controlled by stop signs on the Palm Avenue/Institution
Road approaches. The evaluation revealed that a four-way stop is
warranted.
Due to the isolated nature of this intersection, and the
high speed approaches, it was deemed necessary to supplement the
stop signs with flashing red beacons on all four approaches.
One street light is presently provided at this inter-
section. The evaluation found that additional lighting should be
provided. Therefore, a request will be submitted to Edison for
an additional street light to be installed on an existing wood
utility pole.
The recommendation for a four-way stop, supplemented by
flashing beacons, was reviewed by the Traffic Safety Advisory
Committee at their meeting of 11-10-93. After reviewing the
evaluation prepared by the Traffic Engineering Section, the
Committee adopted a motion that the recommendation be approved.
We recommend that the four-way stop be approved.
