SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
This Engineering and Traffic Survey is intended to serve as the basis for the establishment and enforcement of speed limits for selected streets within Cathedral City. This survey was authorized by the city and independently conducted by the private consulting firm Albert A.
Webb Associates.
Engineering and traffic surveys for speed limits should be conducted once, seven (7), or fourteen (14) years for the purpose of complying with California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 40802.
Regulations and Guidelines
AB 43 defines Assembly Bill 43. This bill would extend the period that a speed limit justified by a traffic and engineering survey conducted more the 7 years ago remains valid, for purposes of speed enforcement, if evaluated by a registered engineer, as specified, to 14 years.
This bill would also exempt a senior zone and business activity district, as defined, from those provisions.
This bill makes several changes to existing speed limit laws, including:
1) Vulnerable Pedestrians : Local authorities are authorized to consider the safety of vulnerable pedestrian groups when adjusting speed limits based on engineering and traffic surveys.
2) Speed Limits in Business/Residential Districts : The bill establishes a 25 mph speed limit on state highways within business o r residential districts and allows Caltrans to change speed limits in these areas.
3) Lower Speed Limits : It permits Caltrans and local authorities to set speed limits as low as 15 or 20 mph on state highways.
4) School and Business Activity Districts: Local authorities can lower speed limits near business activity districts and schools without an engineering survey, with a warning period for violations during the first 30 days of implementation.
5) Traffic Surveys and Enforcement : The bill allows for further speed limit reductions and requires updates to the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. It also establishes a timeline for implementing these changes related to a new online traffic adjudication tool.
6) Speed Trap and Speed Limit Validity : The bill extends the validity of speed limits justified by engineering surveys from 7 to 14 years, and exempts senior zones and business activity districts from certain speed trap rules.
These changes aim to improve safety and allow more flexibility in setting speed limits, particularly around vulnerable populations and specific districts.

SECTION 1. Section 627 of the Vehicle Code is amended to read:
627. (a) “Engineering and traffic survey,” as used in this code, means a survey of highway and traffic conditions in accordance with methods determined by the Department of Transportation for use by state and local authorities.
SEC. 7. Section 22358.7 is added to the Vehicle Code, to read:
22358.7. (a) If a local authority, after completing an engineering and traffic survey, finds that the speed limit is still more than is reasonable or safe, the local authority may, by ordinance, determine and declare a prima facie speed limit that has been reduced an additional five miles per hour for either of the following reasons:
(1) The portion of highway has been designated as a safety corridor. A local authority shall not deem more than one-fifth of their streets as safety corridors.
(2) The portion of highway is adjacent to any land or facility that generates high concentrations of bicyclists or pedestrians, especially those from vulnerable groups such as children, seniors, persons with disabilities, and the unhoused.
(b) (1) As used in this section, “safety corridor” shall be defined by the Department of Transportation in the next revision of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. In making this determination, the department shall consider highways that have the highest number of serious injuries and fatalities based on collision data that may be derived from, but not limited to, the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System.
(2) The Department of Transportation shall, in the next revision of the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, determine what constitutes land or facilities that generate high concentrations of bicyclists and pedestrians, as used in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a). In making this determination, the department shall consider density, road use type, and bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure present on a section of highway.
(c) A local authority may not lower a speed limit as authorized by this section until June 30, 2024, or until the Judicial Council has developed an online tool for adjudicating infraction violations statewide as specified in Article 7 (commencing with Section 68645) of Chapter 2 of Title 8 of the Government Code, whichever is sooner.
(d) A local authority shall issue only warning citations for violations of exceeding the speed limit by 10 miles per hour or less for the first 30 days that a lower speed limit is in effect as authorized by this section.
CVC Division 11, Chapter 7 defines the California Speed Laws. CVC Section 22352 indicates that prima facie speed limits are 15 miles per hour (mph) at unprotected railroad grade crossings, uncontrolled highway intersections with sight restrictions, and on any alley. In addition, the prima facie speed limit is 25 mph in residence and business districts, when approaching or passing a school building or grounds thereof, or when passing a senior center
1-3
or other facility primarily used by senior citizens. CVC Division 1 defines a business district and residence district in Sections 235 and 515, respectively.
A “business district” is that portion of a highway and the property contiguous thereto (a) upon one side of which highway, for a distance of 600 feet, 50 percent or more of the contiguous property fronting thereon is occupied by buildings in use for business, or (b) upon both sides of which highway, collectively, for a distance of 300 feet, 50 percent or more of the contiguous property fronting thereon is so occupied. A business district may be longer than the distances specified in this section if the above ratio of buildings in use for business to the length of the highway exists. 1
A “residence district” is that portion of a highway and the property contiguous thereto, other than a business district, (a) upon one side of which highway, within a distance of a quarter of a mile, the contiguous property fronting thereon is occupied by 13 or more separate dwelling houses or business structures, or (b) upon both sides of which highway, collectively, within a distance of a quarter of a mile, the contiguous property fronting thereon is occupied by 16 or more separate dwelling houses or business structures. A residence district may be longer than one-quarter of a mile if the above ratio of separate dwelling houses or business structures to the length of the highway exists. 2 Section 2235 7(a) permits the establishment of speed limits greater than 25 mph based on the following text:
Whenever a local authority determines upon the basis of an engineering and traffic survey that a speed greater than 25 miles per hour would facilitate the orderly movement of vehicular traffic and would be reasonable and safe upon any street other than a state highway otherwise subject to a prima facie limit of 25 miles per hour, the local authority may by ordinance determine and declare a prima facie speed limit of 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, or 60 miles per hour or a maximum speed limit of 65 miles per hour, whichever is found most appropriate to facilitate the orderly movement of traffic and is reasonable and safe.
3 Therefore, the CVC allows local authorities to increase the prima facie limits by ordinance or resolution to appropriate limits as determined by an engineering and traffic survey. Posted speed limits not defined in the CVC or established by ordinance are not valid. The CVC requires that speed surveys must be performed with the use of radar or other electronic devices at locations where speed limits are to be enforced with the use of radar. The current survey must be completed within five years as specified in Section 40802(a), seven years as specified in Section 40802(c), or ten years as specified in Section 40802(c), of the date of the

preceding survey. A survey allowed to expire passed the valid duration of the previous survey would constitute a speed trap as defined in Sections 40802 of the CVC:
(1) (a) A “speed trap” is either of the following:
(1) A particular section of a highway measured as to distance and with boundaries marked, designated, or otherwise determined in order that the speed of a vehicle may be calculated by securing the time it takes the vehicle to travel the known distance.
(2) A particular section of a highway with a prima facie speed limit that is provided by this code or by local ordinance under paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) of Section 22352, or established under Section 22354, 22357, 22358, or 22358.3, if that prima facie speed limit is not justified by an engineering and traffic survey conducted within five years prior to the date of the alleged violation, and enforcement of the speed limit involves the use of radar or any other electronic device that measures the speed of moving objects. This paragraph does not apply to a local street, road, school zone, senior zone, business activity district, or speed limit adopted under Section 22358.7 or 22358.8.
(2) A “speed trap” is either of the following:
(A) A particular section of a highway measured as to distance and with boundaries marked, designated, or otherwise determined in order that the speed of a vehicle may be calculated by securing the time it takes the vehicle to travel the known distance.
(B) (i) A particular section of a highway or state highway with a prima facie speed limit that is provided by this code or by local ordinance under paragraph (1) of subdivision (b) of Section 22352, or established under Section 22354, 22357, 22358, or 22358.3, if that prima facie speed limit is not justified by an engineering and traffic survey conducted within one of the following time periods, prior to the date of the alleged violation, and enforcement of the speed limit involves the use of radar or any other electronic device that measures the speed of moving objects:
(I) Except as specified in subclause (II), seven years.
(II) If an engineering and traffic survey was conducted more than seven years prior to the date of the alleged violation, and a registered engineer evaluates the section of the highway and determines that no significant changes in roadway or traffic conditions have occurred, including, but not limited to, changes in adjoining property or land use, roadway width, or traffic volume, 14 years.

(ii) This subparagraph does not apply to a local street, road, or school zone, senior zone, business activity district, or speed limit adopted under Section 22358.7 or 22358.8.
Requirements and Methodology of an Engineering and Traffic Study
Speed zones are primarily established to protect the public from the unreasonable behavior of reckless, unreliable, or otherwise dangerous drivers. Speed limits are normally set near the 85th-percentile speed that statistically represents one standard deviation above the average speed. The 85th-percentile speed is defined as the speed at or below which 85 percent of traffic is moving. Speed limits established on this basis conform to the greater majority of motorists as to what speed is reasonable and prudent, and are not dependent on the judgment of one or a few individuals.
The Engineering and Traffic Survey, as defined in CVC Section 627, must consider the prevailing speeds, accident records, and highway, traffic, and roadside conditions not readily apparent to the driver. Local authorities may also consider residential density and pedestrian and bicycle safety. Speed zones are also established to advise motorist of road conditions or hazards, which may not be readily apparent to a reasonable driver. For this reason, a field review of related road/traffic variables is conducted which is considered in combination with the statistical data and collision history of a particular roadway segment to determine a safe and reasonable speed limit. The specific procedures used in the performance of an Engineering and Traffic Study are outlined in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices, 2014 Edition (CA MUTCD). The statistical factors used to analyze the collected speed survey data and additional factors as noted in the CA MUTCD to consider are defined in the following section.

Field Review
Speed data was collected using calibrated radar speed guns and was performed by a sub- consultant to Albert A. Webb Associates, Counts Unlimited. Each of the radar speed surveys were made from an inconspicuously parked, unmarked vehicle. An effort was made to ensure that the presence of the vehicle in no way affected the speed of the traffic being surveyed.
Field information from these speed surveys and other roadway characteristics were recorded on field data forms and later coded into engineering software for analysis purposes. CA MUTCD Section 2B.13 indicates that in order for the sample to be representative of the actual traffic flow, it is desirable to have a minimum sample of 100 vehicles for a speed zone survey, but in no case should the sample contain less than 50 vehicles. In addition to speed data, average daily traffic (ADT) volumes for each segment were collected from the survey using pneumatic tube counters and radar counts.
Examples of the field data collected for the purpos es of analyzing related roadway characteristics as they pertain to the determination of appropriate speed limits are listed below.
The results of the field review for related roadway and traffic variables are summarized in the next section of this report.
1. Segment length, width and alignment;
2. Level of pedestrian and bicycle activity, truck volume;
3. Traffic flow characteristics;
4. Number of lanes and other channelization/striping factors;
5. Frequency of intersections, driveways, on-street parking, bike lanes;
6. Locations of stop signs, traffic signals, and other regulatory traffic control devices;
7. Roadway condition, bumps and dips;
8. Obstructions to driver/pedestrian visibility;
9. Land use and proximity of schools, parks/recreation areas and senior centers;
10. Uniformity with existing speed zones in adjacent jurisdictions; and
11. Any other unusual conditions or hazards not readily apparent to the driver. Statistical Analysis Factors
Significant factors used to analyze the collected survey data are summarized below:
• 85th-Percentile Speed . The critical speed, or the 85th-percentile speed, is defined as that speed at or below which 85 percent of the traffic is moving. This factor is the primary guide in determining what speed the majorit y of drivers find safe and reasonable. Therefore, the practice is to set the speed limit to the nearest 5 mph increment from the 85th-percentile speed unless other factors require a lower limit.
Speed limits set on this basis provide law enforcement officials with a means of controlling reckless or unreliable drivers who will not conform to what the majority finds reasonable.
• 10-mph Pace . The 10-mph pace is the 10-mph increment range which contains the largest number of recorded vehicles. This factor is a measure of the dispersion of speeds within the sample surveyed. Speed limits should normally be set to fall within the 10-mph pace, however, conditions not readily apparent to the driver or adhering to state mandated limits such as in residence districts may require setting speed limits below the 10-mph pace.
• 50th-Percentile Speed . The median speed, or 50th-percentile speed, represents the mid-point value within the range of recorded speeds for a particular roadway location.
In other words, 50 percent of the vehicles travel faster than, and 50 percent travel
2-4
slower than, the median speed. This value is another measure of the central tendency of the vehicle speed distribution. Typically speed limits should not be set below the 50th-percentile speed, since it would result in greater than 50-percent of the drivers exceeding the speed limit.
• 15th-Percentile Speed . The 15th-percentile speed is that speed at or below which 15 percent of the vehicles are traveling. This value is important in determining the minimum allowable speed limit, given that the vehicles traveling below this speed tend to obstruct the flow of traffic, thereby increasing the collision potential. • Percent of Vehicles in Pace Speed . The percent of vehicles in the 10-mph pace speed is an indication of the grouping of vehicular speeds. Ideally, if all vehicles were traveling at or about the same speed, there would be a reduced likelihood of vehicular collisions. In speed limit analysis, the higher the percent of vehicles within the pace speed, the more favorable the speed distribution. The percent of the 10-mph pace is often between 60 and 90 percent.
2014 CA MUTCD Standard
The 2014 CA MUTCD Section 2B.13 sets the standard for establishing posted speed limits:
Standard: 12a When a speed limit is to be posted, it shall be established at the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th-percentile speed of free-flowing traffic (CVC Section 22358.6(a)), except as shown in the two Options below for rounding down and using 5 mph speed reduction (CVC Section 22358.6(b)), or rounding up (CVC Section 22358.6(c)), or if using Standard:
If the speed limit to be posted has had the 5 mph reduction applied, then an E&TS shall document in writing the conditions and justification for the lower speed limit and be approved by a registered Civil or Traffic Engineer. The reasons for the lower speed limit shall be in compliance with CVC Sections 627 and 22358.5. additional 5 mph speed reduction on local agency roadways for safety corridor designation (CVC Section 22358.7(a)(1)) or adjacent to land or facility generating high concentrations of bicyclists and pedestrians (CVC Section 22358.7(a)(2)).
Option:
1. For cases in which the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th- percentile speed would require a rounding down, the posted speed may be reduced by 5 mph from the nearest 5 mph
increment of the 85th-percentile speed, in compliance with CVC Sections 627 and 22358.5. CVC Sections 22353, 22353 .2, 22353.3, 22353.4, and 22353.5, may also be considered, if applicable. See Standard below for documentation requirements.
Refer to CVC Section 22358.6(b).
2. For cases in which the nearest 5 mph increment of the 85th- percentile speed would require a rounding up, then the speed limit may be rounded down to the nearest 5 mph increment below the 85th percentile speed, if no further reduction is used. Refer to CVC Section 21400(b). Refer to CVC Section 22358.6(c).

Collision History
The Engineering and Traffic Survey forms summarize the available collision information for each of the street segments. The collision information was gathered from the California Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) between January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2024. Based on the number of total collisions per segment studied over the 4 year period and ADT volumes, a collision rate per million vehicle miles was calculated for the segment. To provide a general comparison of the collision rates on the segment to expected collision rates for similar types of local roadways, the collision rate for the segment was compared to the statewide average rate listed in the 2022 Collision Data on California State Highways (road miles, travel, collisions, collision rates) 4 as listed in Table 2-2. Only the segments that experienced collisions due to unsafe speeds in the studied timeframe are shown in the table.
The calculated collision rate for the segment is shown on Table 2-3.
