Carlsbad moving forward with planned traffic circles in Barrio neighborhood
CARLSBAD, Calif. (FOX 5/KUSI) — The City of Carlsbad is moving forward with its plan to put five new traffic circles at several key intersections in the Barrio neighborhood in an effort to improve traffic safety and walkability for residents in that area. The plan is moving forward after the Carlsbad City Council approved at their meeting on March 4 the plans, specifications and authorization to bid for the Barrio traffic circle project.

After phase 1 was approved last week by the City Council, the next steps for the project include relocating and replacing aging water and sewer utilities to comply with current standards before construction on the traffic circles begins.

The City also noted that based on parking studies that were conducted, the traffic circles are not expected to impact parking availability in those areas. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
