The stop sign used to be at the actual intersection years ago. If they put it back how it was originally or a signal, all would be well.

Airport Razz on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 13:46:45

Oops, directions fail me today. Stop was ins5allee to far EAST. not West. Needed to go west. The temporary one they put up proved that. 🤔

Airport Razz on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 13:44:52

Entire situation could have been remedied with a bag of concrete, posthole digger and the intelligence to not classify the driveway into the highway yard as a street vs a driveway. Had that stupid stop sign been put at the actual intersection rather than 500 ft to the west, everyone would know what to do 🤦‍♂️. I heard same about signal but figured it was internet wishful thinking. Paved paradise to put up a worthless roundabout. And all ok'd by people who dont live here. Nice move but typical California and Big Bear

Trail Rider on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 13:08:13

KK and Euro, I'm still upset about all of the trees they cut down! And now is it really a round about or obstacle course

KK on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 12:32:02

Euro to answer your question, I sure hope not.

KK on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 12:29:24

Only Big Bear lake can turn things into a $hit show. I don’t mind progress but to do all that half butt stuff in front of the school is crazy. Hoping it all works out for the kids and parents. I can barely navigate my SUV in the area..Let’s wait for the boats and motor homes.
If it is not broke don’t fix it.
I had to rant .

BillyJean on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 10:35:07

I thought they decided on signals instead??

cricket on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 09:57:01

Good question Euro! Also they need lights! It is difficult at night due to the barriers and having to navigate in the dark.

Euro(KJ6BCN) on Sunday 22 March 2026 - 07:34:31

Will the "roundabout" at Stanfield Cutoff actually be a roundabout?
