CC RESOLUTION 3516RESOLUTION N0.3516
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, IN SUPPORT OF
AVIATION /ROSECRANS RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT
• WHEREAS, the intersection of Aviation Boulevard and
Rosecrans Avenue has long been one of the most congested
intersections in Los Angeles County; and,
WHEREAS, every day, commuters driving to work in the
aerospace and defense employment complex south of Los Angeles
International Airport experience thousands of hours of delay due
to this bottleneck, adding up to some 10 million hours of delay
per year; and,
WHEREAS, Aviation Boulevard is one of only two north -south
arterials west of the San Diego Freeway and Rosecrans Avenue is
one of the principal access arterials from the employment center
to the San Diego Freeway and points east; and,
WHEREAS, a railroad trestle which cuts diagonally across the
intersection is supported by concrete blocks which preclude
needed widenings in both the Aviation Boulevard and Rosecrans
Avenue corridors; and,
• WHEREAS, reconstruction of the intersection is beyond the
financial capability of the involved jurisdictions in that it
would use up nearly ten years worth of their Federal Aid Urban
Secondary (FAUS) funds to construct.
