EVANGELICAL CHURCH
SUMMARY
A request was received for the Traffic Commission to review traffic conditions adjacent to the First Evangelical
Church of San Gabriel Valley (Church) located at the intersection of Walnut Grove Avenue and Marshall Street.
Representatives from the Church expressed concerns that traffic conditions (road characteristics, high traffic volumes
on Walnut Grove and Marshall, and existing lane configurations) provide for safety concerns in the area. A traffic
study was conducted at the location, including traffic counts and a review of turning movements during peak traffic
times. After studying the location, it was determined that the installation of some traffic controls and markings would
improve traffic safety in this area.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the Traffic Commission recommend to the City Council:
1. The installation of "Keep Clear" legends on Walnut Grove Avenue (northbound lanes), approximately 200
feet south of Marshall Street;
2. The installation of "Keep Clear' legends on Marshall Street (eastbound lanes), just east of the Walnut Grove
Avenue intersection; and
The installation of approximately 20 feet of parking restrictions (red curbing) on the south side of Marshall Street,
adjacent to the First Evangelical Church driveway, approximately 130 feet east of the Walnut Grove Avenue
intersection
