Traffic pattern change planned in Santa Barbara’s downtown

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - One-way traffic on Anacapa Street in downtown Santa Barbara may soon change in one specific area.

The Santa Barbara City Council is expected to approve a change in the traffic pattern in the area of Anacapa Street between Gutierrez Street and Haley Street at Tuesday's meeting.

With the closure of State Street nearby to create a car-free promenade, the city wants to change Anacapa Street to create more options for drivers and have a better traffic circulation flow.

The council will discuss the change on Tuesday afternoon.

The restriping could take place as part of an asphalt paving project this summer.
