Orange Grove Avenue Lane Reductions and Emergency Access
A resident warned that recent lane narrowing on Orange Grove between the 10 Freeway and newer modifications creates gridlock that could block fire, police and medical response. Councilmember Martin echoed severe peak-hour congestion and asked for a left-turn solution at White Avenue.

A resident reported cars speeding through the Eleanor/Alvarado intersection near Lincoln Park and not yielding to pedestrians; neighbors want a four-way stop or yield signs. Staff will follow up on area traffic work.
