DATE: January 10, 2006 PAGE: 2 of 2 REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND: Applying for and obtaining grants allows the County to construct more improvements than would be possible without obtaining these grants. The following is a brief description of each of the projects listed above: The Pacifica Avenue Sidewalk and Bike Lane project consists of widening Pacifica Avenue to accommodate a 5- foot wide Class II bike lane,pavement re-striping, construction of driveway conforms, and installation of concrete curbs and 5-foot wide sidewalk on the south side of Pacifica Avenue from Driftwood Drive to Rio Vista Elementary School. This project also consists of constructing an underground drainage system to facilitate proper drainage of the proposed pedestrian and bicycle facilities. The Delta DeAnza Trail at Willow Pass Road and State Route 4 project consists of constructing a 12-foot wide asphalt concrete path on the east side of Willow Pass Road from the State Route 4 westbound off-ramp to Evora Road(approximately 300 feet), striping a crosswalk across Willow Pass Road at Evora Road, and striping a 4-foot wide bike lane on the west side of Willow Pass Road from Evora Road to the State Route 4 westbound on-ramp. In order to construct the 12-foot wide path,the project will also require cutting into a slope on the east side of the path, therefore a short, V-2' retaining wall will be required. The project also includes construction of two AC ramps on the southeast and southwest corners of Willow Pass Road and Evora Road for wheelchair access across Willow Pass Road. The`Pacheco Boulevard Sidewalk Gap Closure project closes the 300-foot sidewalk gap between Camino Del Sol and Windhover Way, on the north side of Pacheco Boulevard. Closing this gap would provide uninterrupted sidewalk from Las Juntas Elementary School to just west of Windhover Way,a distance of 1,500 feet. This project includes construction of 300 feet of 6.5-foot wide sidewalk and curb, relocation of existing wheelchair curb ramp, widening of AC roadway and re-striping of roadway shoulder to accommodate a Class II bike lane. This project also includes relocating a traffic signal and re-striping all crosswalks at the northwest corner of Pacheco Boulevard and Camino Del Sol. The Castro Ranch Road AC path project consists of constructing a 5-foot wide AC path on the east side of Castro Ranch Road between San Pablo Dam Road and Hillside Drive. This project also includes installing eight Caltrans standard curb ramps at two intersecting streets. Currently there are stretches of existing sidewalk on the east side of Castro Ranch Road. This project will close the existing sidewalk gaps between Olinda School and San Pablo Dam Road. The Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Education Projects will provide bicycle and pedestrian safety education to low- income residents of Contra Costa County,particularly children. Activities for 07-08 will include the Bicycle Helmet Bank, Bike Days Safety Events, and Traffic Safety Education. At selected school sites, classroom traffic safety education will be paired with Street Smarts Traffic Safety Education Campaign being conducted under separate funding. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Failure to approve the submittal of this application will eliminate a potential funding source.
