Deskripsyon
Santa Clara Ave is the major bike lane crossing the island and ends at 3rd street. This intersection does not have a stop sign which making it danger for bikes to either turn on to third street or continue on towards Alameda point. Every morning I see numerous children riding their bikes to Encinal High along this route and I am concerned that one day there will be an accident at this intersection with a child pedestrian or cyclist.

Requests for many transportation issues, including stop signs, curb painting, and traffic calming measures, typically require 8-12 weeks to complete before staff can develop a recommendation. These requests involve review of current plans and policies, compilation of accident and/or other history, coordinating with Alameda Police and other stakeholders, outreach to residents or others who may be affected by the proposed change, on-site data collection and analysis, and sometimes consultation with outside experts.
I will follow up with you about your request when your request is at the top of the queue. Unfortunately, due to limited funding, there is a backlog of these requests and they are being handled in the order of receipt. Due to that backlog, some requests may take six months to a year to complete the analysis and recommendation.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
