Advisory

Traffic signals out at East Washington and Ely Road

The traffic signals on Ely Road/Sonoma Mtn Pkwy and East Washington are completely out.   Petaluma Public Works have placed temporary stop signs at the intersection.   

What to Do if Traffic Signals Are Not Working

  • Temporary stop signs:  Drivers must stop for temporary stop signs.  
  • Red flashing traffic light: If the traffic signal is flashing red, drivers should treat it the same as a stop sign.
  • Yellow flashing traffic light: If the traffic signal is flashing yellow, drivers should slow down and yield.
  • Blacked out traffic signals: If a traffic signal is out of order, drivers should stop and treat it as if there are stop signs in all directions. Whichever driver approached the signal first determines the right-of-way. If two vehicles stopped at the same time, as it would be at a stop sign intersection.
