Specific Plan Area – Lakeside Upper San Diego River Improvement Project Final Programmatic Environmental Impact Report
Semi-Rural Residential (SR-1)
Document Description
The proposed project consists of improvements to existing transportation and pedestrian facilities within the SR-67/Riverford Road interchange in Lakeside, unincorporated San Diego County. The project would convert two intersections to roundabouts, to improve traffic circulation and ease congestion; add on- and off- ramp legs; construct crosswalks, Rapid Flashing Beacons, pedestrian push buttons for sidewalks, sidewalks, shared-use pathways, and Class II bike lanes; and install streetlights around both roundabouts and stormwater quality improvement features to help clean stormwater draining into the San Diego River. The northern roundabout would replace a two-way stop-controlled intersection at the on/off-ramps of SR-67 southbound and Riverford Road. The southern roundabout would replace existing signal-controlled intersection at Woodside Avenue and Riverford Road. New curb cuts, gutters, inlets, and other stormdrain features would be added and tie into existing drainage systems as part of water quality treatment. The project site would include vegetated landscape and hardscape. Rock removal via blasting and/or other methods are likely; however, access to residences and businesses in the vicinity would remain open at all times. The project would take one to two years to complete. A full version of the project description can be found in the CEQA Initial Study.
