REQUEST FOR a MID-BLOCK CROSSWALK ON EL CAMINO REAL BETVVEEN MAIN STREET AND SIXTH STREET AND CONSTRUCTION OF PARKING FACILITIES AND A PEDESTRIAN RAMP AT 450 EL CAMINO REAL The City has received recent requests for a mid-block crosswalk on El Camino Real between Main Street and Sixth Street and for construction of parking facilities and a pedestrian ramp at 450 El Camino Real. The mid-block crossing is not appropriate due to traffic safety and congestion concerns. The installation of a mid-block crosswalk at this location would necessitate the removal of on-street parking to provide adequate sight distance and would interrupt traffic on El Camino Real causing congestion. Construction of parking facilities and a pedestrian ramp at 450 El Camino Real to access the Steven's Square Parking Structure has been determined infeasible and considerable planning and design is underway on an alternate location for siting of an elevator to facilitate access to the parking structure. In addition, the design of a landscape pedestrian plaza is underway and future construction of these improvements will be programmed as funds are authorized. Recommendation by the Public Works Department/Engineering Division: Deny the request to install a mid-block crosswalk on El Camino Real between Main Street and Sixth Street and construction of parking facilities and a pedestrian ramp at 450 El Camino Real.
