Fletcher Cove Ramp Pedestrian Walkway Closure
Minor work is under way to repair an existing storm drain junction box located on the pedestrian walkway along the south side of the Fletcher Cove beach access ramp. This work, which began on Wednesday, January 25th, requires the closure of the pedestrian walkway for several days. Every effort will be made to open the walkway for weekend traffic. During this closure, pedestrians may use the vehicular side of the ramp to access the beach. Please pay attention to repair crews and to emergency vehicles while using the ramp at all times.
New Changes to Three Feet for Safety Act
For nearly a decade, California motorists have been required to maintain a distance of 3 feet when passing bicyclists. In September 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom approved the OmniBike Bill AB 1909 that modifies the vehicle code to make people on bikes safer on California streets. This new law, which went into effect on January 1, 2023, will require drivers to change lanes, when possible, to provide more space to bicyclists as they pass. It requires drivers to create extra space between their vehicles and any surrounding bicycles on the roadway, reducing the risk of near misses or collisions.
