The Four Crosswalk Improvements along Valley Drive and Ardmore Avenue near Live Oak Park Project is funded by Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) to improve the safety feature at the four crosswalks near the Joslyn Center.
Currently, the pedestrian crosswalks at Valley and 17th Street (midblock crossing in front of the Joslyn Center), Ardmore Avenue and 17th Street, Valley and 18th Street (midblock crossing in front of the Live Oak Park kid’s playground), and Ardmore Avenue and 18th Street are the uncontrolled crossings along the major routes for residents and visitors who visit the Manhattan Beach, Live Oak Park, Joslyn Center and many other City destinations. These crossings can be enhanced to provide better visibility to motorists.
This project will improve safety at above mentioned high flow crossings by implementing treatments that will enhance pedestrian safety and increase visibility and awareness for both drivers and pedestrians.
