ENGINEERING, TRAFFIC AND SPEED SURVEY
HIGHWAY 'UNDER SURVEY: West Lugonia Avenue
AREA OF: Between California Street and Alabama Street
DATE OF SURVEY: May 9, 24171
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the facts of this survey it is recommended that eastbound West Lugonia Avenue between
California Street and Alabama Street be posted as a 45 m.p.h. zone.
In the area between California Street and Alabama Street a speed survey was conducted. The
results are as follows:
Between California Street and Alabama Street-
At West Lugonia Avenue Critical Speed - 47.5 m.p.h.
Average Speed - 42.4 m.p.h.
Pace Speed -- 38-47 m.p.h.
A request was made by Gilda Murray, Office Manager, Department of Motor Vehicles at 1659
Lugonia Avenue, to post the speed limit on West Lugonia Avenue between California Street and
Alabama Street. Applicant stated as reasons for the request were excessive speeds and numerous
accidents. Currently, the centerline of West Lugonia Avenue is the boundary between the City of
Redlands and the County of San Bernardino. There are no posted speed limit signs on this segment
of Lugonia Avenue. This section of West Lugonia Avenue between California Street and Alabama
Street has not had a speed survey conducted before therefore, currently, the maximum speed limit
is 55 m.p.h. per CVC 22349,
The County of San Bernardino Department of Public Works have conducted their own speed
survey which resulted in approximately the same critical speed. The County is going before the
Board of Supervisors recommending a 45 m.p.h. speed limit for westbound West Lugonia Avenue
between California Street and Alabama Street.
This section of West Lugonia Avenue is designated as a major arterial in the City of Redlands
General Plan. The area is also located within a commercial/industrial area.
Based on the speed surveys on West Lugonia Avenue between California Street and Alabama
Street which indicated a critical speed of 47.5 m.p.h., we recommend that the speed zone for
eastbound West Lugonia Avenue between California Street and Alabama Street be established as
a 45 m.p.h. speed zone.
