The primary goal of HSIP is to significantly reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries <br />on all public roads by implementing infrastructure-related highway safety improvements. <br />In 2017, the City was awarded $323,910 through the 2018 HSIP Cycle 9 to upgrade the traffic <br />signal and enhance safety at the intersection of Wicks Boulevard and Manor Boulevard. <br />The project includes a full signal upgrade at the intersection. Improvements consisted of installing <br />protected left-turn signals, upgrading signal heads and related equipment, implementing video <br />detection systems for cars and bikes (including advanced detection), and installing accessible <br />pedestrian pushbuttons and signals. The project also included the construction of curb ramps to <br />meet current ADA accessibility standards. <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 9/4/2025
