Purpose and Need
The project will improve the pedestrian facilities along the west side of Main Street
between Camino Diablo Road and the US Post Office on Main Street near Holway Drive in
the community of Byron, East Contra Costa County. The residents of Byron, the Byron
Municipal Advisory Committee, and the District 3 Supervisor’s Office have voiced their
concerns with the lack of pedestrian accessibility along Main Street.
The proposed sidewalk is 760 feet long and 8-feet wide. It will provide access to the Byron
U.S. Post Office, Byron Community Library, Byron Bethany Irrigation Water District, and
other local businesses. The new sidewalk and a curb ramp at the corner of Camino Dia blo
and Main Street will provide pedestrian and ADA access to the only bus stop in town. This
bus route connects Byron residents to Discovery Bay and Brentwood. Additionally, this
route takes commuters to the Brentwood Park and Ride where additional bus routes are
available for their commute. The easy access to the bus stop will encourage local residents
of Byron to take the bus to their destination. The project would also provide ADA
accessibility for all users, uplift the downtown area and attract other businesses to Byron’s
Main Street.
Excelsior Middle School along Byron Highway is approximately 0.4 miles from the project
site. Students who live south or southeast of the project site may prefer to use a calmer
Main Street for their route to school instead of the busier Byron Highway.
Project Description
Project Length = 760 feet
This project will consist of constructing approximately 760 linear feet of 8 foot wide
sidewalk and concrete curb and gutter along Main Street in downtown Byron between
Camino Diablo Road and Holway Drive. The resulting path will be ADA compliant to provide
accessibility to all people using this route in Byron.
Existing utility poles will remain along the curb side of the proposed 8 -foot wide sidewalk.
Utility boxes will be adjusted to the new sidewalk grade to eliminate tripping hazards.
Driveway conforms will be installed per current standards and allow for ADA access.
Accessibility to the existing buildings will also be coordinated with the new sidewalk gr ade.
A section of existing roadway asphalt will be removed and replaced to provide the roadway
cross slope needed to facilitate the installation of a 6-inch curb and to improve drainage.
The existing storm drain inlet at the corner of Main Street and Camino Diablo Road is
located within the roadway. When the curb, gutter and sidewalk is installed, the inlet will
be relocated to be aligned with the proposed curb and gutter in a more traditional
configuration.
