>Numerous students have expressed their concern about safely crossing 
>parking lot 30's entrance/exit at Canyon Crest Drive.  The following 
>actions will be taken to help improve pedestrian safety at that site:
>
>* Effective Tuesday, May 31 left turns into and out of Lot 30 at Canyon 
>Crest Drive will be eliminated.  Only right turns entering from and 
>exiting to Canyon Crest Drive will be allowed.
>*A new crosswalk will be marked at the lot's entrance/exit, and the 
>concrete barriers defining the existing pathway will be extended to the 
>new crosswalk.
>
>*  A speed hump will also be installed prior to the lot's Canyon Crest 
>entrance.
>
>Access to Lot 30 will continue to be available from Martin Luther King 
>Blvd. for vehicles that would have formerly entered the lot by turning 
>left from Canyon Crest Drive.
>
>RTA bus route 16 will make all its stops (east and west bound) in the bus 
>pullout along Lot 30's south (or exit lane) side.
>
>We will continue to monitor the intersection to determine if this action 
>is effective in improving pedestrian safety or whether additional steps 
>are required.
>
>Please refer to the Transportation & Parking Services Website 
><http://www.parking.ucr.edu/>www.parking.ucr.edu for detailed information
