Los Feliz/Riverside Traffic Signal Improvements

Design and Construction of Protected Permissive Left Turn Phasing for northbound and southbound directions at the Los Feliz Blvd/Riverside Dr intersection.

Los Feliz Boulevard Parkway Pathway Design Study

This feasibility study will evaluate the current parkways and sidewalks on Los Feliz Boulevard from Western Avenue to Vermont Avenue and report on potential alignments of a sidewalk-grade cycletrack/pathway as well as needed ADA improvements and traffic calming features. One key guideline for the project is the feasibility of a pathway that can exist within the context of the existing majestic cedars.

Mulholland Highway Fencing

This project will replace the existing rental fencing on Mulholland Highway near Canyon Lake Drive with a permanent occlusive fence to discourage viewing the Hollywood Sign from the middle of the road, which is a safety hazard.

This project will add and refurbish existing lighting in Tunnel 1, an equestrian and pedestrian tunnel that connects the North Atwater Bridge to the Crystal Springs Picnic Area, traversing under the 5 Freeway.

Fern Dell–Trails Cafe Crosswalk and Safety Project

This project will create a crosswalk between Trails Cafe and the playground at Fern Dell as well as add speed mitigation features and limited sidewalk improvements.

Griffith Park Safety & Mobility Improvements Feasibility Study Phase 3 (Crystal Springs Roadway Redesign)

The next phase of our Griffith Park roadway safety work is a roadway reconfiguration on Crystal Springs Drive from Los Feliz Boulevard to Griffith Park Drive. This project will create protected/separated biking and walking lanes on Crystal Springs Drive and calm traffic.
