Artesia’s high-volume corridors include Pioneer Boulevard, Artesia Boulevard, 186th Street, 183rd Street, Norwalk Boulevard, and South Street as shown in Figure 2-3. The posted speed limits for these corridors vary between 35 and 40 miles per hour (mph).
None of the surface streets within Artesia have posted speeds of 50 mph or above. All of the City’s minor streets have a posted speed limit of 25 mph, which make them viable for potential ATP recommendations such as bicycle boulevards or shared bicycle routes. Posted speed limits along primary and secondary corridors will play an important role in the development of enhanced recommendations appropriate for these larger streets.
