Memorandum TO: Elaine Jeng, PE, City Manager FROM: Vanessa Munoz, City Traffic Engineer DATE: May 17, 2023 SUBJECT: Portuguese Bend Road, Crest Road, and Eastfield Drive Speed Limit Signs This memorandum is in response to the request by City staff to review and provide input on the location of speed limit signs along Portuguese Bend Road, Crest Road, and Eastfield Drive. On Wednesday May 10, 2023, a field review of the existing location of speed limit signs was performed and the existing signs are noted in Exhibit A. Speed limits signs standard posting is defined by the California Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTCD) Section 2B.13.03 and 2B13.04 which reads “speed limits signs, indicating speed limits for which posting is required by law, shall be located at the point of change from one speed limit to another and “where it is necessary to remind road users of the speed limit that is applicable.” Based on engineering judgment and the CA MUTCD standards for speed limit sign posting, we recommend additional speed limit signs be installed along Portuguese Bend Road, Crest Road and Eastfield Drive as detailed in Exhibit A. 18
