MULTI -WAY STOP INSTALLATION - SECO CANYON ROAD
AT CYPRESS PLACE
Transportation and Engineering Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the installation of a multi -way stop control at the
intersection of Seco Canyon Road at Cypress Place.
BACKGROUND
Staff received requests from area residents to investigate the possibility of installing a multi -way
stop control at the intersection of Seco Canyon Road at Cypress Place. Existing controls at this
four -legged intersection include stop signs on Cypress Place. After conducting a traffic review at
the subject intersection, staff recommends the installation of a multi -way Stop control.
While much of Seco Canyon Road is classified as a secondary highway, it does change
characteristics and is downgraded to a local residential street one block south of Cypress Place.
The intersection of Seco Canyon Road at Cypress Place is part of the "Suggested Route to
School" that students take to Mountain View Elementary School. This intersection does meet the
City's minimum volume warrant for the installation of multi -way stop signs for residential
streets. Multi -way stop control will establish right-of-way assignments, provide for the orderly
movement of traffic, and enhance the safety of pedestrians and motorists entering or crossing this
intersection.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
