Nogales Street Grade Seperation and Gale Avenue/Walnut Drive Widening Project

Nogales Street Grade Seperation and Gale Avenue/Walnut Drive Widening Project

The Nogales Street grade separation portion of the Proposed Project includes lowering a currently at=grade segment of Nogales Street, an existing six-lane roadway, under the UPRR Los Angeles Subdivision right-of-way (ROW). A railroad bridge would be constructed to accommodate the two existing tracks plus additional abutment width to allow for a future widening to accommodate a third track. Additional roadway improvements include street construction and widening, off-site modifications, retaining walls, storm drains, a pump station, sewer utility relocations, traffic signals, street lighting, and landscaping. The temporary at-grade crossing of the UPRR tracks. A temporary two-track shoofly, approximately 3,000 feet in length, will be constructed to maintain rail operations during construction. The Gale Avenue/Walnut Drive widening portion of the Proposed Project would widen 0.83-mile segment of Gale Avenue/Walnut Drive (a 0.36-mile segment of Gale Avenue and a 0.47-mile segment of Walnut Drive) by 16 to 18 feet (8 to 9 feet on either side), from its intersection with Nogales Street, creating a four lane road (two lanes in each direction).
