Santa Fe Avenue Project

Additional project updates and information will be published on an on-going basis.

Latest Updates — October 2022

Traffic signal upgrades and construction are in progress on Santa Fe Avenue. Due to unforeseen delays, this project is estimated to be completed by Early 2023, barring unforeseen circumstances.

The contractor is scheduled to perform work Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. No parking signs will be posted a minimum of three days prior to the start of work. Efforts will be made to maintain as much parking as possible. Intermittent intersection closures will be necessary to complete this project. While the contractor will attempt to open streets as soon as it is safe to do so, we encourage the use of alternate routes during work hours. Residents are encouraged to keep away from street and construction activities, reduce water runoff from driveways and lawn irrigation into the street before or during construction activities.

Project Information

Traffic signal upgrades are coming to Santa Fe Avenue between Wardlow Road and Anaheim Street and Anaheim Street between Santa Fe Avenue and Oregon Avenue. Traffic signal improvements include larger signal indications, new protected left-turn arrows, pedestrian countdown signals, upgraded signal integration with emergency vehicles, vehicle and bicycle detection, fiber optic cable communication upgrades, LED safety lighting, pedestrian push buttons, and ADA accessible curb ramps.

New signage and sharrow markings are also planned for Santa Fe Avenue between Wardlow Road and Pacific Coast Highway to increase awareness and safety of bicyclists. Existing parking and vehicle travel lanes will remain as is and bollards will not be installed.
