Description
Please install stop signs at the intersection of Bayo Vista Avenue and Monte Vista Avenue. It's a blind intersection, and some drivers race through it to avoid the traffic lights on High Street. There are a lot of young children in the neighborhood, and it poses a risk having drivers use this residential street and a shortcut. A four-way stop would be ideal, but a two-way would be an improvement as well. Thank you!

Thank you for your request to help make Alameda’s transportation infrastructure as safe and efficient as possible. Your suggestion will be included in the annual review of locations where traffic calming measures may be implemented. Public Works, Alameda Police, and the City’s Transportation Planning Unit prioritize improvements based a location’s history of collisions, police citations, its relationship with existing transportation plans and improvements, cost of the improvement given budget constraints, and suggestions from members of the public, such as yours. Please find more information about the locations and improvements occurring in 2020 here:
