Daly City approves stop signs at Washington & Edgeworth and a Lakeshore no‑parking pilot to curb illegal dumping
Summary
Council approved installing stop signs at Washington Street and Edgeworth Avenue and creating a pilot no‑parking zone on Lakeshore Drive under the Highway 1 overpass to deter illegal dumping; staff said enforcement and visibility improvements motivated the measures.
The council voted April 13 to amend traffic regulations to install stop signs at Washington Street and Edgeworth Avenue and to pilot a no‑parking zone on both sides of Lakeshore Drive under the Highway 1 overpass to address persistent illegal dumping.
Director Chu said the traffic safety committee recommended the changes after reviewing requests; stop signs at Washington/Edgeworth improve sight distance for drivers exiting Edgeworth, while the Lakeshore no‑parking pilot aims to remove parked‑vehicle shields that dumpers use to conceal illegal activity. Staff noted funding is available in the streets operating budget for FY2025‑26.
Council members and staff described how clear curb space aids enforcement (marking tires and license plate identification) and how the illegal dumping task force and police will monitor pilot effectiveness. The pilot will be evaluated for impact and enforcement feasibility; the motion passed by voice vote.
