ITEM 2 - 5:00-9:30 p.m. CITY CENTRE TRAFFIC STUDY - UPDATE
WORKSHOP - The process to reassess the central
city circulation network began following Council
direction in 1992 to find an alternative to the
Caltrans proposed State Route 126 through the City.
Subsequently, the City Council made a referral to
the newly formed CTAC to receive further
community input regarding an alternative east/west
roadway network in the City. On September 13,
1994, Council awarded a contract to Meyer,
Mohaddes Associates, Inc., to conduct a traffic study
for the purpose of examining four alternative road
networks in an effort to recommend a superior
acceptable highway system which would eliminate
State Route 126 from the City's General Plan while
providing a suitable alternative east/west connection
through the City.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends
that the City Council receive the presentation, make
comments and ask questions, permit comments from
the public and provide guidance or direction for the
balance of the study effort. The contract with
Meyer, Mohaddes Associates, Inc., includes an
additional test with the model. The Council may
wish to provide direction on the nature of this test,
as well as other input regarding the direction of the
study.
