BACKGROUND
This contract is the second contract funded by the subject project. The project was split into two phases in order to advance the construction and use available grant funds expeditiously while design work was still progressing. The first contract for repairs and reconstruction/overlay on a total of 4.2 lane miles of pavement has already been completed and accepted by the Council.
This second phase contract completed repairs, reconstruction and/or overlay on a total of 2.7 lane miles of pavement on eight segments of City streets, including upgrading 32 curb ramps within the project limits to comply with the ADA. In addition to reconstruction of streets, the project constructed two enhanced crosswalks with Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons on San Leandro Boulevard to support our complete streets goals and installed eleven speed cushions on several streets for neighborhood traffic calming.
