C. Review of Traffic Conditions on Loftus Drive East of Temple City Boulevard
The Traffic Commission received a request to review traffic conditions at Loftus Drive,
between Temple City Boulevard and the east City limit. Residents in this area expressed
concerns that turn access onto Loftus Drive from Brookline Avenue and Strang Avenue is
often delayed, especially during peak travel hours. Further, there are concerns that on- street
parking at the southern intersections of Loftus Drive/Brookline Avenue and Loftus
Drive/Strang Avenue limits line -of -sight visibility to the east and west. After studying the
location, it was determined that the installation of some traffic safety enhancements would
improve safety in this area. The Commission concurred with the recommendation.
Recommendation: That the City Council approve the Traffic Commission's recommended
street striping plan and improvements, including:
1. The installation of approximately 10 feet of red curbing at the southwest and southwest
corners of the intersections of Loftus Drive/Brookline Avenue and Loftus Drive/Strang
Avenue; and
2. The installation of "Keep Clear" pavement markings at the intersection of Loftus
Drive/Brookline Avenue and Loftus Drive/Strang Avenue.
