Project Background
A 2019 traffic study completed by the City and School District evaluated the existing and expected future traffic levels and impacts along Sunset Drive in the area. The analysis determined the area is best served by a pair of compact roundabouts along Sunset Drive, coupled with a series of driveway access closures and traffic re-routing within the elementary school site. This layout was identified as the most efficient and safe way to move vehicle and pedestrian traffic through the area.
The roundabouts are planned to be aligned with:
- the entrances to the Elementary School and recently relocated Community Education and Recreation Center access
- the Hillside Drive, Sunset Drive, and High School entrance intersection
The school district designed their parking lot and pickup/drop-off area improvements to align with the proposed Sunset Drive improvements.
