Traffic Safety Improvements Coming to the Intersection of Buena Vista Street and Kellwil Way ๐ฆ
As part of preparations for the upcoming Buena Vista Street and Kellwil Way Traffic Signal Installation Project, the City will be installing temporary flashing stop signs and updated signage in the area.
These improvements are designed to help motorists become familiar with the new traffic patterns that will take effect later this summer when the new traffic signal is activated.
Please use caution when traveling through the intersection, pay close attention to all traffic control devices, and plan for minor adjustments as these changes are implemented.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work to improve safety and traffic flow for everyone.

Citywide Sewer Maintenance Underway in Duarte ๐ง
Los Angeles County Public Works, in partnership with the City of Duarte, will conduct sewer line inspections throughout the community from June 1, 2026 through October 21, 2026, as part of ongoing infrastructure maintenance efforts.
Crews will use specialized equipment to inspect sewer lines and identify potential maintenance needs before they become larger issues. In some cases, crews may need access to sewer manholes located within sewer easements on private property. If access is needed, affected residents will receive advance notice. Personnel will only require access to exterior areas. No entry into homes or buildings will be necessary.
