Protected Permissive Left Turn Signals Now in Santee
Full Description:
The Protected Permissive Left Turn traffic signal
has arrived in the City of Santee at two inter -
sections: Carlton Oaks Drive at Fanita Parkway
and Pebble Beach Drive.
The “protected phase” means that when a
motorist sees a solid green arrow, the entire time
is dedicated to the left turn without conflict from
oncoming traffic, which is followed by a yellow,
then a red arrow.
The “permissive phase” means that after the
green arrow terminates, motorists will see a solid
green ball without a red arrow. Motorists can then
make a left turn when safe to do so, while yielding
to on-coming traffic. This makes the intersection
more efficient and reduces delay.
In order to avoid confusion for motorists, a
sign is also mounted on the signal arm that reads:
“Left turn yield on green (green ball symbol).”
This type of traffic signal has been widely used
throughout the country and San Diego County.
For comments or concerns, residents may contact
(619) 258-4100 ext. 189.
