SUBJECT: UNDERGROUND DISTRICT NO. 39 - ORANGE AVENUE FROM EAST OF
KNOTT AVENUE TO EAST OF BRUCE STREET
Underground District No. 39 involves Orange Avenue from east of Knott Avenue to east of
Bruce Street. This Segment of Orange Avenue is designated as a Secondary Arterial Highway,
intended to collect and distribute traffic between local streets, major and primary arterial
highways.
Traffic safety is a major concem throughout this planned underground district. This district
includes the Beach Boulevard/Orange Avenue intersection, which ranks as the 20th highest
accident location in the recent 12-month citywide accident count. Seventeen collisions occurred
along this segment of Orange Avenue during the same 12-month period. Of the total, 10 were
rear-end, two were sideswipe, three were broadside, one was auto-pedestrian and one was other
type. In many of these incidents, sight distances impaired by utility poles may be a collision
factor.
I therefore recommend that, pursuant to Chapter 17.24 of the City of Anaheim Municipal Code,
the City of Anaheim adopt a resolution creating Underground District No. 39, which includes the
high accident location of Beach Boulevard and Orange Avenue. The purpose of the
undergrounding projects is set forth in Section 17.24.020 of Chapter 17.24 and includes traffic
safety.
Overhead electric facilities contribute to the obstruction of visibility by pedestrian and vehicular
traffic at both intersections and driveways. Under certain circumstances, such overhead facilities
may obstruct the vision of pedestrians and vehicle drivers, and adversely impact public use of the
intersections and street segments. For these reasons, I strongly recommend the removal and/or
relocation of all utility facilities within the Orange Avenue segments and that such work is
performed concurrently with the City's underground project.
