On October 20, 2018, the City of Foster City hosted a CommUNITY Dialogue Series meeting where over 80 members of the public attended to discuss the transportation challenges facing the City and potential solutions towards remedying this critical issue, including a proposed Traffic Relief Pilot Program.

The proposed Traffic Relief Pilot Program was borne out of the growing concern from Foster City residents on the increased traffic congestion in Foster City due to cut-through traffic during peak evening commute hours. If implemented, the pilot program would restrict left turns on East Hillsdale Boulevard at Edgewater Boulevard and Shell Boulevard during 4:00 PM-7:00 PM, Monday to Friday. The initial trial period would be three (3) months, with City Manager discretion to terminate the program at any time if deemed unsafe.
