The Public Works Director has advised that a funding grant of $90,000
has been received from the State Bicycle Lane Account for provide funding
in part for the construction of bicycle lanes on Manor Road in E1 Sobrante,
between Appian Way and Hilltop Drive. The grant was announced by the
State on February 9, 1984, based on a project that was approved by the
Board on December 20, 1983 (Resolution No. 83/1250).
The project which will widen Manor Road to 32 feet width with supple-
mental shoulders, will be delineated to provide four-foot wide bike lanes
on either side. Roadside ditches will be minimized; increased safety
and vehicular accident reduction is expected; and students at E1 Sobrante
Elementary School will have a safer place to walk. The project has been
endorsed by the El Sobrante Traffic Advisory Committee.
Funding under the Bicycle Lane Account was an alternative sought
in the event the usual application for TDA funds was unsuccessful , which
occurred. Bicycle Lane Account funds are limited to $90,000 and require
a 10% minimum local match. Therefore the $130,000 project will require
$40,000 local funds, will be provided through a reallocation of gas tax
funds.
The Public Works Director recommends that the Board of Supervisors
accept the grant from the State Bicycle Lane Account and that he be authorized
to execute the agreement on behalf of Contra Costa County.
IT IS BY THE BOARD ORDERED that the recommendations of the Public
Works Director are approved.
