The city would love to hear from El Monte residents and users of Parkway Drive to provide increased safety, access, and comfort for all users of the road; people with disabilities, walking, biking, and/or using public transit. Please take a couple minutes to fill out the survey.
In 2007-2008 the City of El Monte installed speed bumps along Parkway Drive in response to ongoing street racing concerns. In 2015, students from Mountain View High School and community groups identified the need for improved street design for Parkway Drive that included better lighting, wayfinding signage, improved crosswalks, sidewalks, and bike lanes.
