The Carlsbad City Council is scheduled to discuss new proposed all-way stops at three locations citywide during its next meeting on June 23.
The agenda and staff report will be available on the city’s website by Friday, June 19.
Locations where new all-way stops are being considered include:
- Batiquitos Drive and Aviara Drive
- Camino De Los Coches and La Costa Avenue
- Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive

After analyzing traffic volumes and patterns at these intersections, city staff are recommending new all-way stops to help improve pedestrian access, make it easier for cars to turn onto busy streets and reduce speeding.
Tamarack Avenue and Sunnyhill Drive
In 2023, the city installed a raised crosswalk on Tamarack Avenue at Sunnyhill Drive to help address speeding concerns. Since then, we have continued to monitor the intersection and determined that a new all-way stop would make it easier for pedestrians to safely cross the street.
If an all-way stop is approved at this intersection, the existing raised crosswalk and flashing warning beacons would be removed and new high-visibility crosswalks would be installed on all four edges of the intersection.
