Speed-Survey Item

Item 3 is titled as approval of Engineering and Traffic Surveys for posted speeds on various citywide street segments and forwarding recommendations to City Council.

The packet says Engineering and Traffic Surveys are required by California Vehicle Code Section 40802 to establish speed limits and to enforce those limits using radar or other speed-measuring devices. This is recorded as packet-stated process background only, not legal advice.

Citracado 2 Table Row

Table 1 lists Segment No. 19 as Citracado 2, marked as a new segment. The row lists the segment from Avenida del Diablo to Harmony Grove Rd./S. Andreasen, no previous speed survey, no existing posted speed limit, classification M, 85th percentile speed 51 mph, rounded speed 50 mph, and recommended posted speed limit 40 mph.

The table footnote says the 40 mph value was rounded down to be consistent with the corridor by ordinance.

Recommendation Context

The packet recommends approving staff's speed limits per Table 1 and forwarding the recommendations to City Council for concurrence. It also frames the requested Council action as approving eighteen speed-survey segments to retain existing posted speed limits by ordinance and one speed-survey segment to be created and posted by ordinance.

This source does not itself verify final City Council action. The final-action page for the Citracado segment uses Ordinance No. 2026-01 as the adopted-ordinance source.
