It is noted that these costs are for the pedestrian and b icycle-related <br />improvements only. With the immediacy of the West Las Positas Reconstruction Project, some <br />of the phases listed below may be eliminated or cost efficiencies achieved by combining the <br />work. <br /> <br />The combination of the Corridor Improvement Project with the Reconstruction Project should <br />provide additional cost savings and these final costs will be developed with the Reconstruction <br />Design Project anticipated to begin later this year. <br /> <br />Table 1 - Phasing of West Las Positas Corridor Improvements <br />PHASE LOCATION COST <br />1 (quick build) Hopyard to Hacienda $155,000 <br />2 Hacienda to Iron Horse Trail $300,000 <br />3 Foothill to Hopyard $400,000 <br />4 Iron Horse Trail to Fairlands $1,100,000 <br />5 Protected Intersections $1,400,000 <br />6 Convert to Concrete $6,700,000 <br />Total Project $10,055,000 <br /> <br />The City has been saving Measure B and BB sales tax revenue for this project. This money <br />combined with grant funding totals $2,267,000 in available funding for the project. <br /> <br />Additional funding from Measure B and BB will continue to be used on this project and staff is <br />continuing to pursue other grant funding opportunities. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />West Las Positas Corridor Project (Pedestrian and Bicycle) <br />In 2018, the City Council adopted the updated City of Pleasanton Bicycle and Pedestrian Master <br />Plan. The most significant changes in the Updated Master Plan were the addition of two new <br />goals to the Plan. The first new goal is to create a “Low Stress” bicycle and pedestrian network <br />that may be enjoyed by all users and abilities. The second new goal changes the project priority <br />from individual improvements to “Complete Corridors” so that the highest priority corridor is <br />completed before moving to the next priority corridor. <br /> <br />The Complete Corridors goal required the creation of a detailed scoring matrix that evaluates <br />safety, routes to school benefit, demand, connectivity and feasibility. This scoring matrix was <br />used to rank each project both individually and by corridor. <br /> <br />Based on the scoring matrix, the Plan identified the West Las Positas Boulevard corridor <br />between Foothill Road and Fairlands Drive (approximately 3.4 miles in length) as the highest <br />priority corridor. <br /> <br />Upon adoption of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, staff began working on the design of <br />the West Las Positas Corridor to make pedestrian and bicycle improvements that would be <br />suitable for all ages and abilities. <br /> <br />
