Construction of the center median along Katella Ave at Chestnut is set to begin on Monday, February 6.
This project will lengthen the eastbound left turn lane on Katella Ave to north Los Alamitos Blvd. approximately 90 feet. In addition, it will restrict motorists travelling westbound on Katella Ave from making left turns into the Rossmoor Center at Polly’s Pies. The project is expected to last for six weeks and work will be completed between the hours of 8:30 am and 4:30 pm Monday through Friday.
In order for construction employees to work safely, at least one lane in each direction will be closed. Adequate signage warning drivers of lane closures will be utilized, but motorists should expect delays and use caution while proceeding through the area.
Questions about the project can be directed to Dave Hunt in the City’s Traffic and Engineering Department at (562) 431-3538, extension 110. To report dangerous driving or hazardous conditions the public should call the Police Department’s 24-hour dispatch number at (562) 594-7232.

General Personal Safety Tips
The following are some general personal safety tips:
• Be aware of your surroundings. Headphones and other distractions divert your attention and you may not hear or notice persons approaching you.
• Trust your intuition. If you feel threatened or something doesn't feel right, take action immediately.
• Travel with groups of friends.
• Know where there are safe places in the areas where you live, work and play, such as where there are groups of people and other activity.
• Avoid shortcuts that take you through alleys, passageways, and other isolated areas.
• Don’t let strangers get too close to you, even if they seem to have a reason. Protect your personal space.
• Carry as few items of value as possible. Be discreet with your belongings.
• Walk with a purpose. Know where you are going ahead of time.
• Have a plan before you see trouble. Be prepared to cross a street or duck into a store, if needed.
• Carry a small amount of cash, and only the credit cards that you intend to use.
• If carrying a wallet, carry it in a front pocket.
• Leave your expensive electronics and jewelry at home.
• Don’t wear clothing or shoes that restrict your movement.
• Do not resist or take action that would jeopardize your own safety. Your property is not worth injury or worse.
• If victimized, make mental notes of the suspect’s appearance, suspect’s vehicle description, and, if possible, memorize the vehicle license plate.
• If you see a suspicious person or situation, do not hesitate to call the police immediately. In Los Alamitos, dial (562) 594-7232 for our 24-Hour Dispatch. If it is an emergency, dial 9-1-1.
