Current practice is for the location of stop signs controlling access to through
streets to be approved by Ordinance and included in the Carlsbad Municipal Code
after a traffic study is completed to determine if a street should be designated
as a through street.

Page 2 of Agenda Bill No. 87/3
A traffic study of the subject streets was conducted by staff. Of the thirteen
(13) intersections along Alicante Road/El Fuerte Street, seven (7) have a right-
of-way control. Therefore, Condition C is met and a Through Street designation
can be recommended for Alicante Road from the intersection of Corte De La Vista
to Alga Road and for El Fuerte Street from the intersection of Corte De La Vista
to Alga Road. At the May 5, 1986 Traffic Safety Commission meeting, the
Commission unanimously recommended the Through Street designation as discussed
above.
Approval by the City Council will allow for the installation of stop signs on
the minor streets intersecting Alicante Road and El Fuerte Street that currently
do not have stop signs. Altisma Way will require a stop sign at two (2)
locations where it intersects Alicante Road. One of these stop signs will
replace an existing yield sign on Altisma Way.
FISCAL IMPACT
Installing seven (7) stop signs will cost approximately $735.00. Funds are
available in Account No. 001-820-5110-2665.
