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.

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. 🤔

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

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

Euro to answer your question, I sure hope not.
