Beverly Hills Traffic/Parking Commission Liaison will discuss aggressive safety measures for Loma Vista this Thursday

Aggressive Safety Measures for Loma Vista Drive in Development
Heavy Haul Deliveries Suspended in Trousdale Estates


Beverly Hills, CA – A liaison meeting of two appointed Traffic and Parking commissioners and two City council members will be held Thursday, May 15 at 9 a.m. in the City Hall Municipal Gallery to discuss additional safety measures for the Trousdale area of Beverly Hills.

The safety of Beverly Hills’ streets is a critical priority and the City is aggressively pursuing longer term measures, including revising building permit requirements to include strict vehicle safety measures and new heavy haul routes.

Recognizing safety concerns, the City on May 7 commissioned a traffic study from one of the leading transportation engineering firms in California, Fehr & Peers. The firm’s principal, a recognized expert in commercial traffic safety, will make recommendations for safety improvements by the end of May.

Following the tragic accident on Friday, the City of Beverly Hills immediately suspended heavy vehicle delivery and pick up in the Trousdale area until additional safety measures could be established. To enforce the suspension, traffic control officers and signage are deployed at both north and south entrances to Loma Vista to prevent large trucks from entering the area. Overall enforcement efforts to ensure that speeding laws are followed have been increased.
