HomeMy WebLinkAboutInstallation Traffic Signals at Holvley Lane E and Corporate Wy and Beacon Hill CITY OF PALM DESERT
INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council and City Manager
FROM: Richard J. Folkers, ACM/Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: INSTALLATION OF TRAFFIC SIGNALS AT THE INTERSECTIONS OF:
HOVLEY LANE EAST AND CORPORATE WAY
HOVLEY LANE EAST AND BEACON HILL
DATE: May 13, 1999
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve installation of traffic signals at Hovley Lane East and Corporate Way and Hovley
Lane East and Beacon Hill.
BACKGROUND:
The Palm Desert Public Works Department strives to maintain traffic safety and efficiency
throughout the city. In doing so, traffic conditions at several locations have been evaluated.
Two of these intersections are Hovley Lane East and Corporate Way and Hovley Lane East
and Beacon Hill which have been studied for traffic signals. After evaluating various criteria,
both intersections emerged high on the Traffic Safety Priority List.
Hovley Lane East is a major thoroughfare from Portola Avenue to Washington Street,
which traverses a large portion of the city and carries more than 11,000 vehicles per day.
Traffic on Beacon Hill and Corporate Way is experiencing excessive delay as more traffic is
generated in these commercial areas. The traffic signal warrants are attached for both of
these intersections.
The funds to design and build signals at Hovley Lane East and Beacon Hill and Hovley
Lane East and Corporate Way are available in the 1998/1999 fiscal year budget.
The Technical Traffic Committee and the Public Safety Commission approved installation of
these signals as recommended by staff.
Staff recommends the approval of traffic signals at the intersections of Hovley Lane East
and Corporate Way and Hovley Lane East and Beacon Hill.
