A. REQUEST TO INSTALL PARKING RESTRICTIONS— WALNUT GROVE AVENUE & ABILENE STREET
SUMMARY
The Traffic Commission received a request from a resident on Abilene Street to review traffic conditions and sight
visibility at the intersection of Abilene Street and Walnut Grove Avenue. Residents in this area describe a lack of
visibility when exiting Abilene Street to turn onto Walnut Grove Avenue. They maintain that the visibility problems,
coupled with heavy traffic and vehicle speeds on Walnut Grove Avenue, create hazardous conditions. It has been
requested that parking restrictions (red curbing) be installed along Walnut Grove Avenue to increase visibility for
vehicles when exiting Abilene Street.
Staff Recommendation
It is recommended that the Traffic Commission recommend to the City Council that approximately 20 feet of red
curbing be added to the southeast comer of Walnut Grove Avenue at Abilene Sheet.
