BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
At the July S, 2013 City Council Meeting, City Council approved the Citywide Miscellaneous Intersection Roundabout Study (Study) prepared by RBF Consulting. The Study identified strategic intersections along arterial streets including Yucaipa Boulevard, Avenue E, and County Line Road, in the City where vehicular traffic circulation would be improved and operate more efficiently in the long term with the construction of roundabouts. The Study also showed that potential single -lane roundabout intersections would improve operation and traffic flow along street segments between intersections along the arterial streets.
In early 2017, discussions were held with the City of Calimesa regarding joint participation for the improvements on County Line Road. Since both cities would mutually benefit from these improvements, an agreement was prepared in order to identify the responsibility and funding commitment of bath cities for the various improvements along County Line Road. These improvements along County Line Road between Bryant Street and Calimesa Boulevard make up City Council Agenda 125
