Introduce
on Alga
M.P.H.
Ordinance No. 3/ 'l~ to revise the speed limit
Road, from El Camino Real to El Fuerte Street to 45
ITEM EXPLANATION
At the September 6, 1983 Council meeting the City Council
adopted Ordinance No. 3164 establishing a 35 M.P.H. speed
limit on Alga Road from El Camino Real to Alicante Road and a
40 M.P.H. speed limit from Alicante Road to El Fuerte Street.
This action was taken because of the narrow road and the
construction of the new road from Alicante Road to El Camino
Real. Alga Road is now a four lane road with a raised
median.
The results of our speed survey indicate a 45 M.P.H. speed
zone is appropriate, The vehicle code requires a posting in
accordance with the speed survey if radar is to be used for
enforcement. (See Exhibit 3, Speed Zone Evaluation.)
At the October 7, 1}85 meeting of the Traffic Safety Commis-
sion, the Commission approved staffs' recommendation to raise
the speed limit to 45 M.P.H. on Alga Road from El Camino Real
to Cl Fuerte Street .
FISCAL IMPACT
The cost for sign placement and enforcement will be borne by
budgeted operating expenses.
