ESTRELLA PARKWAY - HADLEY TO GOODYEAR BOULEVARD NORTH

City Manager Julie Karins clarified the secondary access into the post office being the primary concern. She confirmed that she would make that a priority.

INSTALLATION OF INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM EQUIPMENT ALONG COTTON LANE FROM YUMA ROAD TO LILAC STREET (CIP PROJECT #42064)
Transportation Planning Manager Christopher Bridges presented information on the installation of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) equipment along Cotton Lane from Yuma Road to Lilac Street. Council clarified that the installation of the equipment would not fix the problems that it would simply be another tool to assist in the eventual solution, but not an immediate fix. Mr. Bridges agreed and added that there are more cars than anticipated; but this is a step towards the solution.
Council clarified that Proposition 400 does impact the roadway. Mr. Bridges agreed and clarified that design has continued and while construction is listed as at risk, it is still in the planning stages.
Council asked if thought could be given to completing the roadway even though it would be removed once the state completes the 303.
Council thanked staff for bringing this item back so quickly after the last meeting and asked for additional opportunities for discussion in the future.
