TERA is working with the City of Los Angeles to bring its temporary “Slow Streets” program to Eagle Rock. “Slow Streets” seeks to provide more space on residential streets for people to maintain social distancing while getting out for fresh air and exercise during the COVID-19 pandemic. Starting on Friday 5/22, the City will provide temporary signage at intersections along the following streets to discourage aggressive driving:
- Ellenwood Drive from Avenue 45 to Yosemite Drive
- Fair Park Avenue between Eagle Rock Boulevard and Maywood Avenue
- Maywood Avenue between Yosemite Drive and Chickasaw Ave
These streets will remain open to drive and park on, but drivers should be aware of the presence of neighbors and children seeking to maintain social distancing. TERA previously submitted a letter to Councilmember Huizar asking for a “Safe Streets” program in Eagle Rock, to consider modifying Yosemite Drive and other Eagle Rock streets. If you are interested in bringing Slow Streets to your street in Eagle Rock, please let us know!
