Throughout the first half of May 2020, City staff placed signage at entrances to residential neighborhoods throughout the city reminding us all to slow down for neighbors who may be walking, running, or bicycling in streets in an effort to maintain a safe social distance.
Signs will be in place until Safer at Home orders are lifted and public parks and recreation centers fully reopen to the public. All local streets will remain open and accessible to traffic, since there remains a need for essential workers to get to and from work, deliveries to be made, and residents to make essential trips.
These signs are placed in the street to encourage careful driving into residential neighborhoods. However, large vehicles such as trash trucks may have a difficult time turning onto some of our residential streets. In these instances, signs should be kept within the shoulder of the street so that our essential services can continue uninterrupted. A map showing the location and intended placement of each sign can be found in the link above Slow Streets Sign Placement Map.
If a sign in your neighborhood is missing or damaged, please let us know through the Pasadena Citizen Service Center under the topic of Traffic Sign Issue via telephone: (626) 744-7311 or on the web at Submit a Request
