Document Description
The project proposes to construct a new team track facility in Pittsburg, California, located on Union Pacific Railroad's (UPRR's) main line. The proposed team track site is approximately 1.5 acres located off of Railroad Lane, south of Central Avenue and north of the UPRR main line. The project is an in-kind replacement for an industrial spur track facility that will be displaced by the SR-4 East Widening Project. The existing spur track is used by two manufacturers to receive materials. The proposed project is to provide an alternate site for both manufacturers to continue to receive shipments. The team track project improvements will include: (1) existing utility demolition and relocation, (2) tree removal and retaining wall demolition, (3) site paving and drainage, (4) perimeter fencing with a new gate off of Railroad Lane, (5) a single track rail spur to accommodate approximately six to seven rail cars, and (6) a raised covered loading dock for two rail cars. Products will be received by inbound rail car and unloaded by forklift to trucks for delivery to customers. Proposed truck access to the site would be on the southern end of Railroad Lane, a one-way road that runs parallel and east of Railroad Avenue. Ingress from Railroad Avenue would occur via Central Avenue, Cornwall Street (one way southbound) and Leslie Drive. Egress would occur via Railroad Lane (one way northbound) and Central Avenue. Product volume is expected to generate approximately one truck trip per day. At maximum foreseeable use levels, product deliveries would require no more than five truck trips and one train trip per day to maintain service for these two users.
