Latest Updates

At its regular scheduled meeting on April 14^th, City Council provided the following directions for the project design:

• Maintain four vehicle lanes (two lanes in each direction) along Paseo Padre Parkway between Chadbourne Drive and Olive Avenue intersections;
• At the Covington Drive intersection, install RRFB crosswalk flashing beacon at existing crosswalk to enhance pedestrian crossing safety;
• At the Olive Avenue intersection, finalize the “Alternative 3” intersection design (see exhibit below), including reducing the number of vehicle lane to two lanes (one lane in each direction) through the intersection only, implementing curb extensions with quick build material to reduce pedestrian crossing distance, and installation of a crosswalk flashing beacon to enhance pedestrian crossing safety; and
• Parking restrictions and removal or pruning of existing vegetation at Covington Drive and Olive Avenue intersections to improve overall sight visibility between turning vehicles, crossing pedestrians, and approaching traffic along Paseo Padre Parkway.

The City plans to incorporate the intersection crossing improvements as part of its annual Pedestrian Crossing Enhancement Project that will be designed over the next 6 months and scheduled for construction in 2027.
