Project Description
New traffic signals are installed as needed to meet growing traffic demands and existing signals are periodically
upgraded. In FY 16/17, a new traffic signal will be installed at the intersection of Monterey Road and Fourth
Street. In FY 17/18, and beyond, intersections of major arterials will be studied to determine improvements that
would increase capacity and/or efficiency of vehicle movements. New signals will be considered where traffic
volumes warrant the need.
Project Justification
New signals, when warranted, provide for a more efficient movement of traffic and improve pedestrian safety.
