Press release from the City of Eureka:

As part of the C Street Bicycle Boulevard project, the City of Eureka will soon introduce four new one- way intersections. The new one-way intersections will be on C Street at the 7th, 14th, Buhne, and Harris Street intersections. These four intersections will prohibit certain directional traffic depending on the C Street entry points, as described in more detail below.

When traveling south on C Street from Old Town, the first one-way conversion will occur at the intersection of 7th Street. Vehicular traffic will be prohibited from proceeding southbound on C and will be directed to turn left towards Myrtle on 7th Street. Additionally, vehicles traveling east on 7th Street will no longer be able to turn right (southbound) on C Street.

At the intersections of C and 14th Streets and C and Buhne Streets, motorists will be prohibited from turning onto C Street in either direction. At these intersections, C Street motorists will be directed to turn right or left off of C Street. Newly installed rapid flashing beacons will help pedestrians and bicyclist navigate these intersections safely.

At the C and Harris Street intersection, vehicular traffic traveling east on Harris will no longer be able to turn left on C Street towards Henderson Center. Northbound C Street traffic will be prohibited from proceeding north on C and will be directed to turn right on Harris Street.

New street signage will instruct pedestrians and motorists how to navigate these new changes. The City will also install new traffic rated planter boxes at these intersections to discourage wrong way travel on C Street. Local access for residents will be maintained.

The main goal of the C Street Bicycle Boulevard is to create a safe, low stress environment by reducing vehicle volume and speeds, making C Street a more comfortable space for all modes of transportation.
