On August 12, the El Norte Parkway Improvement project was accepted as complete by the Escondido City Council.
This project removed a bottleneck over the Escondido Creek to provide two lanes of traffic in each direction, added bike lanes, and installed a pedestrian signal at the bridge.
Key features of this project include construction of a new bridge, stamped medians with landscaping, reconfigured traffic signals, a pedestrian signal to aide pedestrians and cyclists using the Escondido Creek trail to cross El Norte Parkway, and a lighted trailhead sign.
