The City of West Covina - July 15, 2026 - Traffic Committee Meeting

The West Covina City Traffic Committee met on July 15, 2026, to review traffic conditions and safety concerns at several intersections near the I-10 eastbound ramps and the McIntyre Square Shopping Center. The committee discussed recent traffic studies, collision data, and potential improvements including signage changes, lane re-striping, and traffic control measures. They considered alternatives such as adding stop signs, prohibiting certain turns, and installing traffic signals, with input from Caltrans. The committee approved minor improvements at three locations (locations two, three, and four) and agreed to monitor the major intersection (location one) for six months before making further changes. The proposed changes are low-cost and mostly involve city forces performing signage and striping work. The committee emphasized the need to balance safety improvements with traffic flow and to allow time to evaluate the effectiveness of recent changes before implementing more significant modifications.
