    Skyline Blvd Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    It has now been over a week without any update regarding the streetlight outage along Skyline Blvd from Margarita Ave to Rivera Dr.
    All of the streetlights in this stretch remain out, and with the recent rain and early darkness, the area has become extremely hazardous for both drivers and pedestrians. Visibility is significantly reduced, increasing the risk of accidents.
    This situation requires urgent attention. Please provide an update on when repairs are scheduled and prioritize restoring lighting in this area as soon as possible.

    Street light out
  • Street LightAcknowledged
    1739 Escalante Way Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    Two streetlights, one at the southbound exit from 280 onto Trousdale and the other slightly north on Trousdale, are dark. This part of Skyline Blvd is very dark for drivers, posing a dangerous situation when turning north from the exit ramp, particularly in the winter when rain makes it more difficult to see.

    1221 Capuchino Ave Burlingame, California, 94010 - Burlingame

    Dear City Officials,

    I am writing to formally report serious pedestrian safety concerns in my neighborhood, specifically related to traffic behavior on Lincoln Avenue and Broadway.

    Crossing the streets has become increasingly unsafe. On Lincoln Avenue, drivers routinely fail to come to complete stops, even at clearly marked intersections. On Broadway, vehicles frequently do not yield to pedestrians who are legally crossing. These issues are not isolated incidents; they occur regularly and appear to be worsening over time.

    There have been many occasions when my wife and I were close to being involved in an accident due to drivers ignoring traffic laws and pedestrian right-of-way. This ongoing situation creates a constant risk for residents who are simply trying to walk safely in the neighborhood.

    I respectfully request that the city review these intersections and consider appropriate safety measures, such as increased enforcement, traffic calming solutions, improved signage, or other interventions to protect pedestrians before a serious accident occurs.

    Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I would appreciate any follow-up regarding actions the city may take to address these concerns.

    Skyline Blvd Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    During the 7:45-8:30 AM peak, traffic volume on Skyline Blvd is high, with vehicles regularly exceeding 40 mph in both directions, warranting increased monitoring.

    Burlingame Ave & Rollins Rd Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    When coming down eastbound on Burlingame Ave to turn north on Rollins Rd there is difficulty turning left (northbound Rollins) since large utility trucks park at the corner and make it impossible to see incoming traffic. Additionally cars drive fast on Rollins. I request that the red curb be extended on both sides of Rollins flanking Victoria Rd / Burlingame Ave to allow for better visibility. Additionally a mirror on the sound wall facing Victoria Rd / Burlingame Ave may also help.
  • Traffic ConcernsAcknowledged
    Broadway Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    The traffic light signaling the left turn from California to Broadway toward 101 is way too short <30sec. This is a severe bottleneck to 101 entrance with El Camino road work and trains.

    1145 Balboa Ave Burlingame 94010, United States - Burlingame
    If you are going to use Balboa as a detour for El Camino this week, can you at least provide some speed monitoring during the day? No one appreciates their street being turned into an El Camino speedway.
  • Traffic ConcernsAcknowledged
    Hillside Ln & Skyline Blvd Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    A stop sign at Hillside Lane and Skyline would be a good addition for safety. The current crosswalk lights do not work when crossing from the south side so drivers are not warned to slow down. In addition, when turning left to travel northwest on Skyline the visibility is poor. Skyline inclines so a driver turning left cannot see approaching traffic. A car speeding on Skyline presents a risk of causing an accident to drivers turning left from Hillside Lane onto Skyline. A stop sign would make it safer for pedestrians to safely cross Skyline and cars make turns onto Skyline.

    Bayshore Hwy Burlingame 94010, United States - Burlingame
    Something is not right with this traffic signal. At Bayshore and Airport and Broadway (Crowne Plaza road too). Even though there are a line line of cars on each lane of Airport Blvd, the green light only lasts 7-10 seconds. It cuts off people coming from Bayside and Top golf. Something must be wrong in how cars are being detected.
  • Traffic ConcernsAcknowledged
    Lincoln Ave & Paloma Ave Burlingame, CA, 94010, USA - Burlingame
    Location: Intersection of Lincoln Avenue and Paloma Avenue.
    Request: Urgent evaluation for a four-way stop sign or pedestrian signal due to high-risk traffic conditions.
    Safety Concerns: > 1. Intersection Confusion: Significant driver confusion regarding right-of-way is causing frequent near-miss collisions. Some drivers stop while others speed through, creating a hazardous environment.
    2. One-Way Violations: Increased traffic volume (likely due to California Dr/Broadway closures) is leading many drivers to travel the wrong way down the one-way section of Paloma Avenue.
    3. Vulnerable Road Users: As a designated "Bicycle Boulevard," this intersection is high-priority for pedestrian and cyclist safety. Current conditions are incompatible with the city’s Vision Zero goals.
