Vista Del Mar Safety Project

The City of Los Angeles is proposing the Vista Del Mar Safety Project to improve traffic safety along a 1.67-mile stretch of Vista Del Mar between Imperial Highway and Waterview Street. The initiative includes installing a median barrier to reduce head-on collisions and limit unsafe crossings, restricting turns at Vista Del Mar/Napoleon Street to right-turn only to minimize conflict points, and narrowing the northbound travel lanes to a single lane over a 1,000-foot section near Vista Del Mar Park to slow traffic and enhance pedestrian safety. Additional measures involve the installation of speed tables throughout the segment to encourage lower vehicle speeds and minor adjustments to parking configurations between Napoleon Street and Waterview Street to improve traffic flow and roadside safety. The project is intended to address longstanding concerns about excessive speeding and high-risk intersections in the area. The project is being managed by the City of Los Angeles through its California office, with Lameese Chang, Supervising Transportation Planner, serving as the primary point of contact. The initiative was forecasted on June 16, 2026, and is publicly listed under the CEQA Net platform with the project identifier 2026060750. There is no current solicitation number or set-aside designation specified, suggesting the procurement process has not yet been formally opened. The work is expected to be carried out within the city of Los Angeles, California, with no additional jurisdictional or regional partners identified. The overall goal is to create a safer, slower-moving environment for all road users through targeted infrastructure changes.
