City Works to Improve Traffic and Pedestrian Safety

In order to improve traffic and pedestrian safety, vehicles for sale on certain public streets in Moreno Valley will be prohibited beginning Jan. 1, 2015. The majority of vehicles for sale are parked by sellers along major arterials with high-traffic volumes to maximize exposure to potential buyers. This presents many safety concerns that include: Obstruction of traffic flow caused by motorists slowing or stopping on high-volume roadways to examine the vehicles for sale; impeding corner sight distance with vehicles parked at, or near, driveways and intersecting roadways; encouraging mid-block pedestrian crossings and jaywalking across busy, high-speed roadways to examine the vehicles for sale; and distracted sellers and shoppers standing in the roadway with opened car doors and hoods discussing details of the vehicles for sale and disregarding adjacent high-speed traffic. Vehicles for sale on the public streets and limitations listed below are prohibited per City of Moreno Valley Municipal Code 12.44 and are subject to a fine and/or towing and to being impounded. This prohibition also includes the 100-foot portion of any public streets that are adjacent to and intersect with any of the listed restricted roads. - Alessandro Boulevard; Old 215 Frontage Road to Gilman Springs Road - Bay Avenue; Ramsdell Drive to Lasselle Street - Box Springs Road; Morton Road to Day Street - Brodiaea Avenue; Frederick Street to Lasselle Street - Cactus Avenue; Old 215 Frontage Road to terminus east of Redlands Boulevard - Calle San Juan De Los Lagos; Veterans Way to Frederick Street - Camino Flores; Iris Avenue to Avenida De Portugal - Campus Parkway; Day Street to Towngate Circle - Cottonwood Avenue; Old 215 Frontage Road to Redlands Boulevard - Day Street; Old 215 Frontage Road to Ironwood Avenue - Dracaea Avenue; Elsworth Street to Morrison Street; Gershwin Way to Redlands Boulevard - Elder Avenue; Terminus west of Perris Boulevard to Nason Street - Elsworth Street; Cactus Avenue to Eucalyptus Avenue - Eucalyptus Avenue; Towngate Boulevard to Moreno Beach Drive - Frederick Street; Cactus Avenue to Sunnymead Boulevard - Gentian Avenue; Heacock Street to Indian Street; Kitching Street to Lasselle Street - Goldencrest Drive; Commerce Center Drive to Veterans Way - Gilman Springs Road; Eucalyptus Avenue to south city limit - Graham Street; Cactus Avenue to Sunnymead Boulevard - Heacock Street; South city limit to Perris Boulevard - Hemlock Avenue; Pigeon Pass Road to Heacock Street - Hidden Springs Drive; Pigeon Pass Road to Old Lake Drive - Highland Boulevard; Ironwood Avenue to Redlands Boulevard - Indian Street; South city limit to Manzanita Avenue - Iris Avenue; Heacock Street to Via Del Lago - Ironwood Avenue; Day Street to Theodore Street - John F.
