A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SEAL 8EACH, CALIFORNIA,
DECLARING ITS OPPOSITION TO THE INSTALLATION OF
RAMP METERING FOR NORTHBOUND INTERSTATE 405 FREEWAY
TRAFFIC.
WHEREAS, the California Department of Transportation is proposing to install
ramp metering equipment for northbound Interstate 405 Freeway traffic
in the vicinity of Seal Beach Boulevard and Lampson Avenue; and
WHEREAS, local streets in the vicinity of the proposed project are now seriously
congested during peak traffic hours; and
WHEREAS, since no convenient alternate route exists for residents wishing to
travel to California State University at Long Beach, business and
employment areas, additional congestion in the vicinity of the
proposed project would further delay travel time; and
WHEREAS, after analyzing the configuration of the on-ramp, the location of
local streets and traffic signals, the City of Seal Beach has
determined that ramp metering at this location will further compound
traffic congestion 1n the area.

does hereby resolve as follows:
SECTION 1. That the City of Seal Beach is opposed to the proposed ramp
metering project.
