RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY
AUTHORIZING THE INSTALLATION OF STOP CONTROL SIGN AT VARIOUS
INTERSECTIONS WITHIN THE NEIGHBORHOOD BOUNDED BY
EAST 1ST STREET TO THE NORTH, EAST 4T" STREET TO THE SOUTH,
HIGHLAND AVENUE TO THE EAST, AND "D" AVENUE TO THE WEST
WHEREAS, several area residents expressed safety concerns regarding the
intersection of East 2nd Street and "F" Avenue because many drivers ignore the Yield control
signs installed on "F" Avenue (minor street) and they drive through the intersection without
stopping and/or paying attention to the vehicles driving on East 2nd Street (through street); and
WHEREAS, 48-hour Average Daily Traffic (ADT) counts were conducted during
the week of June 4 near the intersection of East 2nd Street and "F" Avenue to determine if the
two streets have similar operating characteristics to warrant the installation of All -Way Stop
control based on the guidelines provided in the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices; and
WHEREAS, a review of the traffic collision history for this intersection confirms
that there were three "reported" traffic collisions within the past four years at this intersection,
which were caused by failure to yield the right-of-way; and
WHEREAS, after review of the 48-hour ADT count and the collision history for
the intersection of East 2nd Street and "F" Avenue, staff recommended to the Traffic Safety
Committee that the following traffic safety enhancements in the neighborhood bounded by East
1st Street to the north, East 4th Street to the south, Highland Avenue to the East, and "D"
Avenue to the west:
1. Installation of All -Way Stop control at the intersection of "F" Avenue and East 2nd
Street;
2. Installation of Stop control for the northbound "F" Avenue approach (minor street)
to the intersection with East 1st Street (through street);
3. Installation of Stop control for the northbound "E" Avenue approach (minor street)
to the intersection with East 2nd Street (through street);
4. Installation of Stop control for the northbound "G" Avenue approach (minor
street) to the intersection with East 2nd Street (through street);
5. Installation of Stop control for the northbound and southbound "E" Avenue
approaches (minor street) to the intersection with East 3rd Street (through
street); and
