The north section of ECR often becomes a bypass route for US 101 when there's traffic on the freeway. Consider monitoring.

Very excited that a roundabout is being considered for this location! It will make things safer for all modes of travel, and is the least expensive option proposed. Plus, it won't be the first roundabout in North County anymore! :)

Neither this intersection nor the Theatre Dr intersection at Green Valley Rd have good bicycle detection for NB cyclists trying to turn left onto Green Valley Road. I've done it many times, and the loops just don't cut it.

Transitioning from WB SR 46 to US 101 has a lot of useful signage that makes me aware of what's up ahead.

This on ramp should be removed to reduce conflict points. The next closest on ramp is on Niblick, which is already built out so much that it can handle extra traffic. Generally, I think the whole on/off-ramp should be closed, but unsure if removing off ramp is feasible.

Needs a crosswalk and flashing light at Rodman and Pecho. Cars travelling too fast to cross safely as a walker.

Suggest reducing the speed limit from Monarch Elementary to at least the corner of Rodman. Travelers are in a hurry to get to MDO. There are kids, walkers, bicyclists, and horses trying to use the area too.

Interchange has a lot of closely spaced unsignalized intersections, and visibility is poor especially on US 101 SB off ramp. Suggest either signalization (similar to US 101/Las Tablas interchange) or even a peanut roundabout to reduce conflict points, slow speeds, and increase safety.

Currently, there is no safe, direct path of travel for bicyclists between Templeton and Atascadero. When living in Templeton, I would have made the bike down to A-town so much if there were a way to get there that didn't involve windy roads through the hills or biking on US 101. This is already identified as a high-priority link in the County's bike plan, and should remain a high priority.

Northbound traffic is usually backed up for several miles at the hwy 46 East ramp, sometimes as far back as the Paso Robles offramp, bringing the highway from two lanes down to one. There's also reduced visibility at the 13th Street overpass, which could lead to accidents when the traffic is backed up. A third lane is suggested after the overpass, to ease congestion of the already two lanes and allow traffic to get over for the offramp without putting them in danger of the reduced visibility

This intersection is a concern due to there not being a merging lane for traffic to get up to speed to join traffic, as well as having to cross the highway to go north. The crossing should be closed and there should either be an overpass built, or a merging lane with the opportunity to merge all the way left to a turn around, with it's own merging lane to get up to speed.

Traffic comes to an abrupt slow down here, possibly sure to traffic slowing down for the "blind" corner as it goes under the overpass and drivers can not see the road ahead, as well as traffic merging from the onramp. The abrupt slow down is a concern for rear end accidents

Traffic seems to come to an abrupt slow down when the highway comes around to Las Tablas exit. I believe the exit appears to come abruptly to most drivers and in an effort to make the offramp, drivers slow down immediately and make sudden lane changes. I've noticed many accidents at this point, due to this possibly being a "blind" corner.

On the narrow, winding road into Montana de Oro, cars and bicycles share the road with no shoulder. Cars end up following the bicyclist uphill on the curvy sections (going very slow) or passing without a clear line of sight - taking chances that there is no oncoming car. All too often, it's the latter.

Left turn from LOVR to Foothill is dangerous. Practically impossible for bikes to be noticed by road sensors and bikes must wait turn lane close to traffic traveling 55mpg in both directions.

What can we, as citizens, do to eliminate speeding? Can we purchase a machine that registers the speed and takes a picture of the car to send to CHP? A lower speed limit would be nice but it doesn't make people slow down.

When trying to cross Pecho, is difficult to see cars until they reach this curve. With cars traveling the 40 mph speed limit, which most drive well over the speed limit, it is very dangerous. Again, why such a high speed limit on this road, which goes by many residential areas?

The vegetation on the west side of Pecho has grown right up to the road which leaves no room to get off the road. With cars traveling at very high speeds going to MDO, it is very harrowing, especially with a dog. If the vegetation was cut back and maybe even some DG put down, so pedestrians could get off the road. Plus, there is no reason for the speed limit to be 40 mph. Thirty mph would be much safer. Most of the speed limits in town are too fast.

Thank you . All of us walkers, equestrians, children going to school, bikes, crossing at Rodman and Pecho Valley Dr. would like to see a flashing safety light. Speeding cars and a blind corner have caused many close calls and some accidents. I live on Pecho near Rodman and cars and motorcycles often race this stretch.
The Equestrian crossing light doesnt require the same costly measures as regular crossing and it has 2 level of buttons: one for pedestrians and a higher one for horse folks.Liked 0 times -
Need to have two lanes in both directions

Even living nearby it is unpleasant to walk to store on LOVR. You are exposed to a very wide road with varying rates of compliance with speed limit. Making it more pedestrian friendly could help local businesses with more foot traffic.

Great intersection when crossing guard is present. The lights seem effective during other times. Though it is difficult for bikes to trigger light from the street.
