CITY TO INSTALL STOP SIGNS, CROSSWALK NEAR BONITA PARK

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve pedestrian safety and ADA access, we reviewed the

intersection at Second and Bonita, which had an uncontrolled crosswalk. In general, we are

removing uncontrolled crosswalks

because they have proven to

decrease safety. In this instance,

there is also an unusual offset to

the intersection and Bonita Park is

on the northeast corner. Given all

of this, rather than simply removing the crosswalk, we have

decided to add 4-way stop signs

and ADA improvements at the

intersection. This will allow users of the park (and nearby school district site) to cross safely. Per our

standard policies, we have notified

the nearby area. Work has already

begun on this improvement and

should be completed in the coming weeks.
