Speed Feedback Sign Installation on Lake Drive

City staff has installed temporary speed feedback signs on Lake Drive, south of Birmingham. The signs will remain in place for three months as a traffic calming measure and also serve as a data collection tool to measure speed and volume which will help us to better understand traffic patterns within this segment. 

 

Left Turn Signal Improvement Project

The traffic signal poles were delivered for the Encinitas Blvd/Vulcan Ave, Leucadia Blvd/Quail Gardens Dr, and Leucadia Blvd/Vulcan Ave intersections. Pole installation will begin Thursday night (6/20). The work will take place between 9pm and 6am, when traffic is light. Lane closures will be in place and traffic signals will be placed in flashing red during working hours.
