Summary of Request

These two Department of Transportation (DOT) contracts will provide for construction of the 2023 Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) projects on various County roads, at an estimated cost of $1,200,000 (~$900,000 for guardrail upgrades and ~$300,000 for systemic roadway segment improvements). Funding for Fiscal Years (FY) 2024-25 and 2025-26 is budgeted through Budget Unit (BU) 3041 and is anticipated to be 90% reimbursable through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), with the local match funded with road funds. The Project includes upgrading existing guardrails and end treatments at areas with a high probability of vehicles unintentionally exiting the roadway. Upgrades will occur along East Side Potter Valley Road at mile post (MP) 6.00 and 6.21, Point Cabrillo Drive, at MP 2.65 and 2.85, Babcock Lane, at MP 0.10, Primrose Drive at MP 1.60, and Comptche-Ukiah Road at MP 7.30. The project also includes the installation/upgrade of signs with new fluorescent sheeting (regulatory or warning) and the installation of chevron signs on horizontal curves, delineators, reflectors, and/or object markers along Branscomb Road, Eastside Calpella Road, North State Street, Sherwood Road, Comptche Ukiah Road, Simpson Lane, Vichy Springs Road, Valley Road, South State Street, Mountain View Road, Pudding Creek Road, Eel River Road, and Henderson Lane.
