Home My WebLink AboutMedian Island Hovely Lane East at Carlotta Drive CITY OF PALM DESERT PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT STAFF REPORT REQUEST: Approve Median Island Concept on Hovley Lane East at Carlotta Drive SUBMITTED BY: Mark Greenwood, Engineering Manager DATE: June 12, 2003 CONTENTS: Letter to residents of The Carlotta Neighborhood Mailing List April 24, 2003 Staff Report Street Widening and Median Diagram Vicinity Map Recommendation: By Minute Motion; approve the median island concept to prohibit left turn egress from Carlotta Drive onto Hovley Lane East. Discussion: At the April 24, 2003, meeting, City Council authorized appropriation of funding for construction of the Hovley Lane East widening project. At that time staff recommended median island construction on Hovley Lane East at Carlotta Drive to prevent left turn egress from Carlotta Drive onto Hovley Lane East, while allowing left turn ingress from Hovley Lane East onto Carlotta Drive. City Council directed staff to notify the residents of this proposal and staff has done so. To d ate, we have received only one negative comment regarding this proposal, which seems to indicate acceptance of the proposal. Therefore, staff recommends that the median island be constructed to prevent left turn egress from Carlotta Drive onto Hovley Lane East, per the attached diagram.

The analysis clearly indicates that the installation of stop signs and/or traffic signals is not recommended at this intersection due to the relatively high volume of traffic on Hovley East and the relatively low volume of traffic on Carlotta Drive. At locations such as this, where there is a concern for safety with left turning traffic, the Public Works Department has very successfully implemented controls to restrict left turn access onto the main street,while allowing left turn access on to the side street. After careful analysis of this intersection the Public Works Department is recommending such an approach at this intersection. Residents in the Carlotta Drive neighborhood will continue to enjoy excellent access directly to the west via Hovley Lane East and to the east via Sandcastle Lane and Eldorado Drive. This will provide no restriction whatsoever in movements in circulation to and from the neighborhood. The Public Works Department will also seek to improve visibility at this intersection by having the Homeowners Association trim the shrubs regularly. This issue will be addressed at the June 12th council meeting with the recommendation of approval from staff. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this plan please contact Mark Diercks, Transportation Engineer, at(760) 776-6450. Sincerely, MARK GREENWOOD, P.E.
