4) CONSIDERATION OF APPROVAL OF THE TRAFFIC COMMITTEE MEETING
MINUTES AND TRAFFIC COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE JUNE
9, 2020 TRAFFIC COMMITTEE MEETING
Carried 5-0 to: approve the Traffic Committee Meeting Minutes and Traffic Committee
recommendations from the June 9, 2020 Traffic Committee Meeting for the following
item:
Traffic Review for the Signalized intersection of Lark Ellen Avenue and Badillo
Street
Request: As part of the 2011 Metro Call for Projects, the County of Los Angeles
Department of Public Works ("County") was awarded a grant for the Traffic Signal
Synchronization Project (TSSP) and Bus Signal Priority (BSP) Project within the
corridor of Ramona Boulevard, Badillo Street, and Covina Boulevard in the Cities of
West Covina, Baldwin Park, Covina, El Monte, Irwindale, and San Dimas.
The purpose of the project is to synchronize traffic signals along the corridor between
Santa Anita Avenue and the 57 Freeway and implement BSP between Tyler Avenue
and Citrus Avenue. The County is initiating improvement recommendations and
communications design for the project. The project includes the intersections of Badillo
Street/Vincent Avenue, Badillo Street/Lark Ellen Avenue, and Badillo Street/Azusa
Avenue. All these intersections are shared by the City of Covina. The City of West
Covina reviewed the potential for installing a protected left turn phasing at the Lark
Ellen Avenue and Badillo Street intersection as part of the improvements for the
project. Traffic Engineering Staff presented a traffic memo summarizing the conditions
justifying the installation of protected left turn phasing. Installation of protected left turn
phasing will improve safety for pedestrians, reduce the potential for turning collisions,
and improve line of sight for turning vehicles.
Page 11 of 18
Review Standard: The installation of all traffic control devices on public streets is
guided by the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CAMUTCD), the
California Vehicle Code (CVC), and engineering judgement. The CAMUTCD Section
4D.19 provides guidance and warrants on where protected left turn phasing could be
installed. Conformity to standards approved by Caltrans or by the Design Manual or
other legislative bodies of work provides the engineer as well as the City with the
reasonableness of traffic control measures which conform to standards of design and
safety. Installation can be based on volume, or improved safety for pedestrians or
vehicles. This intersection did meet the recommended guidance for left turn phasing.
Recommendation: It was unanimously recommended to coordinate with the County
to request if this project could be added as part of the County's Traffic Signal
Synchronization Project (TSSP) and Bus Signal Priority (BSP) Project awarded to the
County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works from the 2011 Metro Call for
Projects grant. If it cannot be added to that the project, then the City may consider this
project as part of a future West Covina CIP project or part of a future grant project
when funds become available. The County will be providing their recommendations to
the City of West Covina for all intersections along the Badillo Corridor that can be
included as part of the Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (TSSP) and Bus Signal
Priority (BSP) Project awarded to it from the 2011 Metro Call for Projects grant.
5) CONSIDERATION OF MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE
CITIES OF WEST COVINA AND WALNUT FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A
TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT LA PUENTE ROAD AND FORECASTLE AVENUE
Carried 5-0 to: authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a Memorandum
of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Walnut for the installation of a Traffic Signal
at La Puente Road and Forecastle Avenue (Attachment No. 1) and authorize the City
Manager to execute amendments to the MOU with a 15% contingency, if necessary.
