Traffic Commission Agenda Report
Speed Hump Installation Request along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street
BACKGROUND:
The City of Commerce received a resident request to conduct a traffic review and evaluate speed hump installation along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street to deter vehicles from speeding along the segment.
In response to this request and on behalf of the City, engineering staff completed a traffic review to evaluate if Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street meets the initial criteria for speed hump installation per the City’s Speed Hump Policy. The traffic review included an analysis of the existing roadway conditions, data collection of average daily traffic (ADT) counts, a 24-hour speed survey, a review of 5.5-years of available collision data along the segment, and a review of the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy criteria.
Fitzgerald Avenue is considered a Local Road with a prima facie speed limit of 25mph.
Fitzgerald Avenue is approximately 38-feet wide with one lane in each direction and no marked centerline. Fitzgerald Avenue has parking permitted at all times except during street sweeping. The street sweeping restrictions for the west side are on Mondays from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm and for the east side restrictions are on Fridays from 8:00 am to 12:00 pm. This segment of Fitzgerald Avenue travels through Single Family Residential zoning.
ANALYSIS:
Average Daily Traffic (ADT): As a part of the traffic study, the Average Daily Traffic (ADT) data was obtained from counts taken on Thursday, December 9, 2021, for Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street. In order to determine the existing ADT for Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street, counts were taken for northbound and southbound directions. The ADT for Fitzgerald Avenue in the northbound direction had 109 vehicle trips over a 24-hour period and the southbound direction had 116 vehicle trips over a 24-hour period for a total ADT volume of 225 vehicles per day along Fitzgerald Avenue.
Collision Data: A Collision History Analysis was conducted for the subject location. Collision data was obtained from the computerized collision records system maintained by the State of California called the Statewide Integrated Traffic Records Systems (SWITRS). An analysis was conducted of available collisions that were reported to SWITRS of the subject segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street. The collision analysis was conducted over approximately a 5.5-year period between January 2016 through October 2021 (available data at the time of traffic review). According to the analysis of the collision data, there were a total of 2 collisions reported along the segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street within the 5.5-year period.
Of the 2 collisions, 1 collision occurred due to driving while under the influence with the vehicle hitting parked vehicles and the other occurred due to a vehicle parking. All 2 reported collisions resulted in property damage only.
Traffic Commission Agenda Report
Speed Hump Installation Request along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street
Speed Survey: To assess the speed at which vehicles are traveling along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street, a 24-hour speed survey was conducted. Speed samples were taken over a 24-hour period on Thursday, December 9, 2021. The 85th percentile speed of vehicles surveying traveling along Fitzgerald Avenue was determined to be 29 MPH, which is above the posted speed limit of 25 MPH. This translates to mean that 85 percent of vehicles samples during the survey were traveling at 29 MPH or below, which indicates there may be occasional speeding along the segment.
According to the 24-hour speed survey taken along Fitzgerald Avenue, 9% of vehicles were traveling at speeds between 30-34 MPH, and 2% of vehicles were traveling at speeds between 35-39 MPH. This shows that this segment would benefit from traffic calming measures to alert drivers of the 25 MPH speed limit.
Speed Hump Policy: An analysis of the site and roadway conditions was also evaluated with the criteria of the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy. The policy states that the Public Works Department may determine which streets are eligible for speed humps based on site and roadway conditions, traffic conditions, and proper engineering principles including, but not limited to, the following:
1. The street must be functionally classified as a residential, local, or collector street. The street cannot be designated as an arterial or higher classification. (This criteria was met.
Fitzgerald Avenue is classified as a local roadway.)
2. The street should be primarily residential in nature, but streets in commercially or industrially zoned areas can be eligible for speed humps, consistent with engineering analysis and safety concerns. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue is classified as a local roadway and is primarily residential in nature.)
3. The street should not be a truck, transit (bus) route, or emergency service route. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue is not a truck route, transit (bus) route or emergency service route)
4. The street does not have more than one traffic lane in each direction. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue has one traffic lane in each direction.)
5. The street should have a minimum length of at least 500 feet, preferably 750 feet. (This criteria was met. This segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street is approximately 750-feet in length.)
6. The street must have a posted or prima facie speed limit not exceeding 30 miles-perhour. (This criteria was met. The prima facie speed limit on Fitzgerald Avenue is 25 MPH.)
7. The street must have a minimum ADT volume of 500 average daily vehicle trips and a maximum ADT volume of 4,000 vehicles per day and with additional assessment of potential impacts on streets with 4,000 to 10,000 average daily vehicle trips. (This criteria was not met. This segment has an ADT volume of 225 vehicles per day.)
8. The street must have adequate drainage and ADA access at street entrances and intersections. (This criteria was met.)
Traffic Commission Agenda Report
Speed Hump Installation Request along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street
9. The street must have roadway pavement, curbs, gutters, adjoining parkways and sidewalks in good condition. (This criteria was met.)
10.The street cannot have any alignment, grade or sight-distance problems that would be affected or created by speed humps. (This criteria was met.)
11.Speed humps should not be spaced closer than 200 feet when two humps are installed on a single block and should not be spaced closer than 350 feet when three humps are installed on a single block. A speed hump should not be placed within 150 feet of any intersection. A speed hump shall never be installed within any intersection. (This criteria was met. The segment along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street is long enough to allow for 2 speed humps to be installed.)
12.A speed hump should not be installed if it conflicts or interferes with:
• Drainage features including gutters, channels, drains, catch basins and manholes. • Compliance with NPDES regulations for storm water run-off. • Fire hydrants, water valves, water meters, utility manholes or other utility facilities. • Traffic control devices, including in-pavement signal detector devices. • Driveways, crosswalks, ramps and/or other ADA facilities/regulations. • Bicycle lanes.
• Horizontal or vertical curves in the street alignment or street profile
13.The City will attempt to not place a speed hump within 35 feet of any property edge where the resident of the subject property failed to endorse the petition or had specifically submitted a written objection to the speed hump. If needed, the City will adjust the spacing in between the speed humps accordingly for optimal.
14.The installation and final locations of Speed Humps should be based on the general guidelines in the Commerce Speed Hump Policy as well as Engineering Judgment and field conditions.
Collection of Signatures for Speed Hump Consideration: This criteria was met. The City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy requires signatures of at least 75% of residents fronting the street where the Speed Humps are being requested to demonstrate that they are in favor of Speed Hump installation. The applicant submitted signatures of residents living along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street. Per the LA County Assessor’s Map, there are a total of 19 units fronting Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street. A minimum of 14 signatures in favor of the speed hump installation would meet the 75% criteria and would be required for the speed humps to be considered for installation.
The applicant obtained a total of 38 signatures; however, it was noted that a few of the signatures were from the same family and same address. After signatures obtained from the same residence were excluded, a total of 18 applicable signatures from different addresses were counted, which meets the 75% requirement set by the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy. This demonstrates that the majority of residents support the installation of Speed Humps along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street.

SPEED HUMP POLICY
The installation of speed humps is intended to provide traffic calming measures to reduce speeding vehicles in residential neighborhoods. Speed humps and other pavement undulations are not approved traffic-control devices as defined in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD), the official document establishing which roadway devices may be readily installed on public streets.
Instead, a speed hump is considered to be a geometric “design feature” within the roadway that must be designed, installed and maintained based on prudent engineering judgment and supported by a sufficient study of its need. The City of Commerce has an adopted Speed Hump Policy that lists general guidelines of when and where speed humps may be considers for installation.
COMMERCE SPEED HUMP POLICY ANALYSIS
This segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street was analyzing and evaluated with the criteria set forth in the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy. The policy states that the Public Works Department may determine which streets are eligible for speed humps based on site and roadway conditions, traffic conditions, and proper engineering principles including, but not limited to, the following:
1. The street must be functionally classified as a residential, local, or collector street. The street cannot be designated as an arterial or higher classification. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue is classified as a local roadway.)
2. The street should be primarily residential in nature, but streets in commercially or industrially zoned areas can be eligible for speed humps, consistent with engineering analysis and safety concerns. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue is classified as a local roadway and is primarily residential in nature.)
3. The street should not be a truck, transit (bus) route, or emergency service route. (This criteria was met. Fitzgerald Avenue is not a truck route, transit (bus) route or emergency service route) Southbound along Fitzgerald Ave toward

Based on the analysis of the ADT, Collison Data, Speed Survey, and City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy criteria, this segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street is eligible for speed hump installation.
RECOMMENDATIONS
After a thorough review of existing field and traffic conditions and per the guidelines in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD), California Vehicle Code (CVC), based on engineering judgement and the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy, it was determined that this segment meets the criteria of speed hump installation.
Per the City of Commerce Speed Hump Policy Analysis conducted, this segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street meets the majority of the criteria set by the Speed Hump Policy. Please note that the only criteria that was not met was that the ADT criteria. The segment has an ADT volume of 225 vehicles per day and the Policy states that the street should have a minimum ADT volume of 500 average daily vehicle trips. The ADT traffic being lower than the minimum ADT volume suggested by the Policy, will not have any negative impacts to the speed hump installation.
Please refer to Figure 4: Proposed Recommendations Diagram for a visual representation of the proposed recommendations.
It is recommended that the following items be approved:
Approve the Speed Hump Request along Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street, which includes:
1. Installation of 2 or 3 sets of speed humps with reflective triangular markings pointing in the direction of travel along the segment of Fitzgerald Avenue between Stevens Place and Everington Street as shown in the proposed diagram. The exact number and location of the speed humps will be determined during the installation.
2. Installation of white thermoplastic “HUMP” pavement markings for both directions approaching each set of the speed humps per CAMUTCD Section 3B.26.
3. Installation of “Speed Humps Ahead” (W84 (CA), 30x30) signage for both directions approaching each set of speed humps per CAMUTCD Section 2C.29.
