On November 9, 2021, City Council adopted  Resolution No. 9716-21 approving the submittal of Euclid Street Traffic Signal Synchronization Improvement Project to the Orange County Transportation Authority for funding under the competitive Measure M2 Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization Program.

The proposed Euclid Street project includes 67 traffic signals spanning across approximately 17 miles. It would begin at La Habra Boulevard in the City of La Habra and terminate at Ellis Avenue in the City of Fountain Valley (see attached map – Exhibit A). The Euclid Street project cost is estimated at $6,201,266.  The City currently has jurisdiction of the following eleven traffic signals along Euclid Street: Orangewood Avenue, Chapman Avenue, Marian Drive, Lampson Avenue, Main Street, Stanford Avenue, Acacia Parkway, Garden Grove Boulevard, Century Boulevard, Trask Avenue and Westminster Avenue. The project subtotal for the City of Garden Grove is $1,431,883.  The local match (@20%) is $286,377.  The project will include the development and implementation of signal timing, traffic signal equipment upgrades, and 2 years of traffic signal timing maintenance.  The project is anticipated to be completed October 2026.

The City of Garden Grove’s financial responsibility towards the project is estimated at $286,377. Funding will be from the City's Red Light Camera fund, and is included in the FY 2022-23 adopted budget.  There is no impact to the General Fund.  

It is recommended that the City Council:

• Approve the Cooperative Agreement with the City of La Habra as the lead agency and to include the cities of Fullerton, Anaheim, Santa Ana, and Fountain Valley for the Euclid Street Corridor Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (CP1325000).

• Authorize the City Manager to execute the Cooperative Agreement on behalf of the City.
