ITEM EXPLANATION:
The Camino Robledo/Paseo Aliso intersection is configured as a T-intersection. Currently, there is
a stop sign on Paseo Aliso for northbound vehicles at the intersection. The east-west vehicles
traveling on Camino Robledo do not have a stop sign at the intersection.
El Camino Creek Elementary School is located on the west side of Paseo Aliso southerly of
Camino Robledo. From a traffic count on September 23, 2003, in the one-hour period before
school started and the one-hour period after school, staff found that a total of 141 student
pedestrians used the intersection. The west leg of the intersection, which is uncontrolled, had the
largest number of pedestrians crossing Camino Robledo. When students cross Camino Robledo
on the west leg of the intersection, they are positioned on the same side of Paseo Aliso as the
elementary school.
Although some students were observed crossing with an adult, installing stop signs on
Camino Robledo will establish right-of-way assignment. At their December 1, 2003 meeting,
the Traffic Safety Commission reviewed the request for an all-way stop at the Camino
Robledo/Paseo Aliso intersection. By a 4-0 vote, the Commission recommended that an all-way
stop be established for purposes of assigning right-of-way at this intersection. A yellow crosswalk
will be striped on the west leg of the intersection to direct school pedestrians to this street crossing
location to access the elementary school.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Installation of stop signs, stop ahead signs, pavement legends, and a yellow school crosswalk at
the Camino Robledo/Paseo Aliso intersection will cost about $1,000.
