III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
In November 1988, the Contra Costa County voters approved Measure
C, a one-half cent sales tax to fund various transportation
improvements within the County. State Route 4 widening project
from Willow Pass Road in Concord to at least Railroad Avenue in
Pittsburg, and the BART rail extension form Concord to North
Concord and eastern Contra Costa County are included in the
Expenditure Plan approved by the voters.
This agreement will fund the design and right of way engineering,
utility coordination and project administration for the widening
and lowering of Willow Pass Grade between Willow Pass Road in
Concord and Bailey Road in West Pittsburg.
The County will administer the design contract of the project
with Caltrans providing oversight. The project schedule calls
for construction to complete no later than fall of 1994 in order
to meet BART' s commitment to have the East County extension in
operation by 1997 .
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
Should the Board not approve this agreement, the BART extension
to East County by 1997 could be delayed.
