Revised Leucadia Streetscape plan gets council approval By Aaron Burgin

ENCINITAS — Encinitas has adopted the changes recommended by the California Coastal Commission to a proposed overhaul of North Coast Highway 101. The project, commonly referred to as the “Leucadia Streetscape,” will dramatically transform the stretch of 101 into a bicy-

cle-, pedestrian- and transit-friendly enclave complete with six roundabout intersections. The California Coastal Commission unanimously approved the project in October, but with several recommended changes: • A requirement that the city study travel time along any major coastal

access roadway with significant congestion prior to modifying it. If the study shows that the project will impact coastal access, it “should be avoided,” according to the staff recommendation. • A stipulation that any future roadway modifications include public access benefit enhancements

that promote different transportation methods, including improved walking and biking access and increased public parking. The City Council voted 4-1 at its Nov. 14 meeting to memorialize the commission’s stipulations. Mark Muir, who has voted against the streetscape plan, cast the lone dissent-

ing vote. Streetscape has been highly controversial in the city, and became one of the defining issues during the most recent election. The plans call for six roundabouts between A Street and La Costa Avenue, bike lanes, pedestrian paths, wider sidewalks and crosswalks, bus facilities,
