COUNCIL AGENDA STATEMENT
Item 13~
Meeting Date 4-6-82
.'EM TILE: Resolution ~~ ~~/ Approving an agreement with
j the San Diego & Arizona Eastern Transportation
Company for construction of traffic signal conduit
under the railroad tracks an "L" Street east of
Industrial Bauleva~d
IBMITT~D BY: City Engineer (4/5ths Vote: Yes No x )
ie traffic signal at "L" Street/Industrial Boulevard currently
~tects!west bound left turning vehicles west of the railroad
~acks.~~ Observations of the signal operation show that same
~hicle~, especially large trucks, wait for the west bound left
irn s~'gnal east of the railroad tracks. To improve the
:ficie~cy of this signal, plans have been completed to add
~tecta~s east of the railroad tracks. The proposed detectors
ill r quire the installation of a 1-1 /2" conduit under the
-ilraa~ "trolley" tracks. Therefore it is my
'sCOMMF~NDATION: That Council approve the attached agreement with
~e SanDiego & Arizona Eastern Transportation Company for the
>nstructtion of the 1-1/2" traffic signal cand uit.
)ARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable.
[SCUSS~ON:
z 198, the traffic signal at "L" Street and Industrial
~uleva~d was modified to provide a westbound to sauthbaund left
irn phase. After the new signal was placed in operation it was
~servec~ that large trucks will not pull forward aver the tracks
~cause~, of the passibility of a trolley coming while they are
Biting', for the signal to change. Since there are no detector
yaps east of the tracks, the signal will not give them a left
irn inc)ication.
ion ex I~cution of this agreement we will issue a minor contract
~ instill loops east of the tracks and therefore improve signal
~eraticbn and efficiency.
INANC~AL STATEMENT: There is an unencumbered balance of
4,853. 3 in the "Minor Traffic Signal Modifications/Repairs"
:count; (250-2503-GT132). The cast estimate far the loop
9ditior~ is $2,000.
LSCAL ITMPACT: The City will bear the cost of maintaining the
~nduit and reimburse the railroad far any cost they may incur as
resul~ of installing, maintaining and .removing the cand uit.
