Keller Canyon Landfill - Improvements
to Bailey Road

FISCAL IMPACT
No direct fiscal impact. The approximate $300, 000 cost of this
project would be funded through the Transportation System Impact
tipping fee established for. Keller Canyon Landfill.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
During the past several months, the County's Public Works and
Community Development Departments have held a series of meetings
with representatives of the City of Pittsburg's City Manager's
Office and their Public Works Department. These meetings addressed
the concerns of both agencies regarding the unimproved section of
Bailey Road within Pittsburg's City limits, between Leland Road and
the limits of the City/County. For reasons of public safety, it is
the recommendation of both County and City staff that this roadway
be improved and upgraded.
Bailey Road has recently undergone several improvements, with more
scheduled in the future. Within the limits of the City of
Pittsburg, Bailey Road is presently four lanes wide from the
intersection of Highway 4 to Leland Road (in "front of the Oak Hills
Shopping Center) . South of Leland Road, Bailey is four lanes at the
intersection, , then drops to two narrow lanes to the City/County
limit.
As part of the mitigation measures for the landfill project, Keller
Canyon Landfill Company was required by the County to improve
Bailey Road from the City/County limit to the landfill entrance.
These improvements resulted in a two 12-foot lane road with two
8-foot shoulders, with a stacking/turning lane and an acceleration
lane in front of the landfill entrance.
Caltrans improvements, expected to begin in September, 1993 , will
improve Bailey from the Highway 4 interchange up to Maylard Street.
The current BART improvements are anticipated to begin
reconstruction of the Highway 4 interchange by December, 1994.
This planned combination of improvements would leave Bailey Road
with approximately 1, 000 feet of old rural roadway that awkwardly
merges with the newer roadway on both ends. The structural
integrity of this section , of roadway was compromised during
construction -'of the landfill, causing the road to break down
several times. While Keller Canyon Landfill Company repaired the
road, anticipated rains (saturating the sub-grade) and the
continued heavy use of Bailey Road will certainly degrade the
structural integrity of the roadway again. It is proposed that the
1, 000-foot section be upgraded to merge into the improved southern
section by constructing a 'stronger structural section to a 40-foot
width with two 12-foot lanes and two 8-foot shoulders. The merge
from the intersection from four lanes to two would be designed with
an adequate taper just south of the intersection.
Additionally, the area of Bailey Road between Leland Road's
southern intersection and the start of proposed improvements would
be overlaid to be consistent with the planned and existing
improvements. Overlaying of the section south of Leland Road to
just north of Maylard Street would be included as part of the
Caltrans/BART improvements.
Land Use Permit 2020-89 Condition of Approval 29.7 provides for a
subsequent surcharge to contribute to the maintenance of Bailey
Road between the Highway 4 interchange and the landfill entrance.

of public safety, it is the recommendation of both County and City staff that this
roadway be improved and upgraded. It is also recommended that the Transportation
System Impact Fee of $2.00 per ton currently being collected from the Keller Canyon
Landfill facility be utilized to fund this project.
In order to facilitate completion of this project, Keller Canyon Landfill Company has
agreed to provide both engineering and construction services. They have further
indicated willingness to provide up front monies with the understanding that the.
County will "credit" those costs to the $2/ton Transportation Impact Fees currently
being collected from the landfill facility.
Bailey Road has recently undergone several improvements, with more scheduled in
the future. At present, Bailey Road is four lanes wide from the intersection of
Highway 4 to Leland Road (in front of the Oak Hills Shopping Center) .' South of
Leland Road, Bailey is four lanes at the intersection, then drops to two narrow lanes
to the City/County limit.

Company was required by the County to improve Bailey Road from the City/County

Cal-Trans improvements, expected to begin in September, 1993, will improve Bailey
from the Highway 4 interchange up to Maylard Street. The BART improvements,
anticipated to begin in December, 1994, will reconstruct the Highway 4 interchange.
This planned combination of improvements would leave Bailey Road with
approximately 1000' of narrow, unimproved roadway that awkwardly merges with the
newer roadway on both ends. The structural integrity of this section of roadway
was compromised during construction of the landfill, causing the road to breakdown
several times While Keller Canyon Landfill Company repaired the road, anticipated.

that the 1000 foot section be upgraded to merge into the improved southern section
by constructing a stronger structural section and a 40 foot width with two 12 foot
