You are cordially invited….

To a Community Forum on roundabouts for Valley Center Road.

There are currently 5 traffic lights coming through our Villages between Fruitvale and Woods Valley Roads.  Current plans call for increasing this to 11 (or more) traffic lights in this 3-mile stretch.  In place of some or all of the 6 new planned traffic lights a series of modern, landscaped roundabouts, such as now exist in the Bird Rock section of La Jolla, is being considered to reduce intersection accidents, eliminate stop & go traffic and shorten transit time. Of utmost importance is evacuation in the event of wildfire and emergency vehicle transit time. 

Benefits and misconceptions about roundabouts and traffic circles will be discussed at this Forum. Transportation Consultant Dan Burden, who designed the Bird Rock, La Jolla series of 5 modern roundabouts on Coast Highway 101, will present information on modern roundabouts and how they could serve Valley Center residents, visitors, emergency responders and businesses, and transform our Villages.

There will be 3 presentations at the VC Library, Community Room:
