WASHINGTON CREEK MULTI -USE PATH PROJECT NO. C100401 -3399* AND AUTHORIZING APPLICATION TO METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION FOR FISCAL YEAR 2004 -2005 TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT, ARTICLE 3 PROJECT FUNDING ( *FORMER - CIP No. 03- 9046 -1) 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To qualify for additional TDA Article 3. funding, the City of Petaluma must have an approved project. The multi -use path from East Washington to the Airport has prior City Council approval, .through City Resolution 2003 -107, except for the Ely Blvd. /E. Washington Creek crossing, where City staff recommends a pedestrian/bike corral (Exhibit A). The corral would include a concrete curb, railing, re- striping and signage, as approved and endorsed by the Traffic Committee at their March 18, 2004 meeting. Staff is requesting the City Council to, designate the Ely Blvd. /E. Washington Creek crossing as part of the Washington and E. Washington Multi -Use Path Project, and authorize application to MTC for allocation of fiscal year 04 -05 TDA Article 3 pedestrian/bicycle project funding. 2. BACKGROUND Details of the pedestrian/bike crossing at Ely Blvd and E. Washington Creek are shown in Exhibit B. The `planned multi -use trail, of which this crossing on Ely Blvd. is a necessary part, starts at East Washington and ends at the Petaluma Airport, and is approximately 6.000' long. The .path crosses Maria Drive, McGregor Avenue, Ely Boulevard and `Garfield Drive all of which are low -use residential streets, except for Ely Boulevard,, which is a 35 MPH, 4 lane street; with bike lanes and parking on each side and an average.'da& traffic count of close to 1.0,000 vehicles per day. Due to the high . speed of traffic and the uniqueness of this crossing (adjacent traffic signals are far apart and there are no other islands in thi's stretch), a pedestrian/bike corral is recommended by staff .for safety reasons; and agreed to by both the City of Petaluma's traffic engineering consultant W =Trans and the City's Traffic Committee. With the proposed design, each pedestri.an/bicyclist.who approaches the crosswalk would alternately be required to yield to oncoming traffic in crossing each half of the road. Staff believes that this is the safest alternative reviewed. • 3. 4. ALTERNATIVES: • a. Establish the bike crossing at Ely and E. Washington Creek as a bicycle project, allowing staff to apply for TDA Article 3 funding. b. Do not establish the bike crossing of the E. Washington Creek project, thereby separating the 6000 5 path along E. Washington Creek from E': Washington to the Airport into two independent shorter paths without access between them at Ely Blvd.. FINANCIAL IMPACTS Engineers Estimate for the cost of the work is $54,876.00 Revenue Source(s): 'TDA Article 3 BUDGETED USES DISTRIBUTION AMOUNT General, Fund Overhead_ $ .Administration $ ConstructionMgn. /Inspection $ Design $ Construction $54,876.00 Contingency $ TOTAL 1 $54,876.00 5. 6. 7. CONCLUSION Staff recommends that the City Council establish construction of the described pedestrian/bike corral as part of the 03 =04 Washington and E. Washington Creek Multi - Use Path Project No. C100401- 3399, and 'approve "subsequent application to MTC for TDA Article . 3 funding. OUTCOMES' OR PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS THAT WILL IDENTIFY SUCCESS OR COMPLETION: Following the approval of this agenda item, application to MTC for TDA Article 3 funding will proceed, and upon MTC approval, design of the bike crossing can go forward and the project will go out to bid. RECOMMENDATION Adopt resolutions establishing' the. Ely Blvd. /E. Washington Creek crossing as part of the Washington and E. Washington Creek Multi -Use Path Project No. C10040'1- 3399, and authorizing staff to make application to MTC for 04 -05 TDA Article 3 funding. s \p fs \staff\casta1 d o \904( EXHIBIT A LOCATION M PROJECT C100401 ELF' BLVD. /E.
