RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council approve the project plans and specifications, and authorize the advertising for bids
for the Pedestrian Access Improvements to Transit Stops, Project No. T0014.
BACKGROUND
The goal of this project is to increase pedestrian safety and access to transit stops in the City.
In February 1997, the City submitted a project funding application for federal assistance for
the Pedestrian Access Improvements to Transit Stops project. Phase II construction (the final
phase) is continuing from previously completed Phase I construction. In Phase I, the City
completed the installation of three new traffic signals and sidewalk improvements to transit
stops on Soledad Canyon Road. Phase II construction consists of the installation of the
remaining two new pedestrian -actuated traffic signals at the intersections where no traffic
control currently exists, and the installation of traffic interconnect conduit on Soledad Canyon
Road.
Through a competitive grant process, the City has obtained a total of $767,200.00 in FTA
funding to support Phases I and II of this project. In order to utilize funds received through the
FTA's competitive grant process, the City is required to provide a 20 percent local funding
match. Both grant and local match funds for Phase II of this project were appropriated by the
City Council as part of the Fiscal Year 2001/02 Annual Budget Process.
The breakdown of the funding sources is illustrated as follows:
