City May Close Street to Ease Traffic Near School
Seeking to alleviate traffic congestion near South Pasadena Middle School before and after the school day, the city is considering closing off Rollin Street to through traffic.
A city advisory committee is examining four potential solutions to relieve congestion at the school.
All the alternatives involve an Edison Co. right of way between Rollin and Oak streets to be used for student drop-off and pick-up. In addition, three of the solutions call for mid-block closures of Rollin Street.
The Traffic Safety Advisory Committee will discuss the plans at 6 p.m. today at the school, at 1600 Oak St. Another meeting is scheduled for the City Council chambers at 1424 Mission St. on Aug. 25. The committee will forward its recommendation to the council.
