SUBJECT: Petroleum Violation Escrow Account (PVEA)
DEPARTMENT: Parks, Recreation, and Community Services
BACKGROUND
Senate Bill 314 provided for the distribution of funds available in the Petroleum Violation Escrow
Account (PVEA) to specific projects. One of the projects listed to receive funding was "Santa
Clarita City Intersection Improvement in Bouquet Canyon". The total amount authorized in this
grant was $150,000.00.
A project outline was prepared by Parks Planning and Public Works Transportation staff members
for review by Caltrans to determine if the proposal qualified for funding. The proposed project
qualified for funding in three areas.
I. Energy Savings
2. Improvements to transportation services and facilities
3. Timely Project
The proposed project is to improve the transit service to the Santa Clarita Intermodal Transit
Station by providing enhanced transit patron access and safety at the Bouquet Canyon and
Cinema Drive intersection. This would include upgraded pedestrian signalization, new bus
loading platforms, sidewalks and shade structures. In addition to the transit improvements the
funding would provide for a Class II bike route on Cinema Drive from Bouquet Canyon Road to
the intersection of Valencia Blvd. and a Class I access connection to the Los Angeles County
Regional Commuter Trail along the Santa Clara River and/or the South Fork Trail.
