For many months, Palomar Park property owner Michael Herzen has been struggling with the County to get the traffic signal at Edgewood repaired so that it once again will respond to traffic volume.  Late last summer or early fall, a contractor unaffiliated with the County did some digging that damaged the “loop” that controls the signal—anyone who has traveled down Scenic during student drop-off/pickup hours has seen the long line of cars that extends from Edgewood all the way up to the Clifford/Palomar intersection.  It can take 4-5 signal changes to get onto Edgewood at these times.

Thanks to Mike, it seems that the County will be repairing this problem TOMORROW, throughout the day during school hours.  

It might be helpful to our residents if the Board could give them a heads-up about tomorrow’s work.

Thanks,

Trish

Hello Michael –

Everyone that have reported the signal issue at this intersection will be getting an update soon but please feel free to pass the information to your neighbors and contacts.

The subcontractor only has one opening to do the loop replacement within the next few months. Unfortunately, that window is tomorrow, Thursday, 5/14/2026.

The work will be done after the morning school drop off hours and is scheduled to be finished by school pick up hours. There will be flaggers to help direct traffic as the intersection may be affected during the repairs.

 

Thanks,

Khoa.

Trish - Thanks for alerting us and God bless Mike for his Herculean efforts.  Obviously, this is short notice but, on the chance that Lexi can fire off a Mad-Mini alert I have copied her directly.  She was swamped at work yesterday and, as a result, was unable to make last evening’s board meeting.  How hopeful we can be that her plate has been cleared to accommodate such an effort this evening, I do not know.  

I guess the good news is that, assuming it’s a one-day job, there would be one more day of massive delays and then normal congestion from then forward.   Thanks again for alerting us and to Mike for a job well done.  It’s an example of an ad-hoc sub-committee of one active with appropriate passion to make life better for all PP residents  My hats off to him.  - Bob
