There's two signs before that notifying of both the upcoming speed change and the traffic signal:
https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8729084,-118.2881048,3a,75y,290.92h,84.76t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1swdXyoCmQlPuZSMuiVwyung!2e0!7i16384!8i8192 https://www.google.com/maps/@33.8729084,-118.2881048,3a,75y,...
I'm also extremely surprised that there's a 20 mph drop. While it's only a recommendation, the Uniform Vehicle Code and Model Traffic Ordinance suggests never changing the speed more than 10 mph at a time, and having no more than six such changes in a mile.
See page 28 of this PDF, as I was looking for this information specifically in relation to the Florida DOT, which does a pretty good job of following this rule:
