The Long Beach City Council will review a proposed conversion of Henderson Avenue between 15th Street and Pacific Coast Highway from its current two-way operation to a one-way northbound operation .
Planners with Public Works and Community Development assert the street improvement project seeks to reduce illegal parking, enhance aesthetics and improve safety by providing new sidewalks where none exist and add angular parking along the east side of the street.
An investigation conducted by the Traffic Engineering Division concluded that the conversion would achieve the above-mentioned goals.
The oneway configuration would have "no significant adverse impacts" on traffic, according to a staff report.
The Traffic Engineering Division reportedly mailed notices.
According to the staff report, the opinions expressed by residents responding to the mailer have been in support of the proposal .
