Dublin Boulevard - North Canyon Parkway Extension Project

Dublin Boulevard - North Canyon Parkway Extension Project

The eastern extension of Dublin Boulevard from its current terminus at Fallon Road to the Doolan Road/North Canyons Parkway intersection has been planned since 1984. Dublin’s General Plan, the General Plans of Alameda County and Livermore, Eastern Dublin Specific Plan (EDSP), Fallon Village Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR), and Plan Bay Area 2040 all include the extension of Dublin Boulevard. The Project is programmed in the current TIP. The Project would include the extension of Dublin Boulevard approximately 1.5 miles eastward through eastern Dublin and an unincorporated portion of Alameda County. The roadway extension would start from the current terminus of Dublin Boulevard at the Dublin Boulevard/Fallon Road intersection in Dublin and would end at the Doolan Road/North Canyons Parkway intersection along the boundary of Alameda County and Livermore. While this Project is subject to the requirements of both NEPA and CEQA, separate environmental documents have been prepared, one that complies with NEPA and another that complies with CEQA. This Environmental Assessment (EA) complies with the requirements of NEPA and other federal environmental laws. Compliance with CEQA and state environmental laws is provided in the Dublin Boulevard – North Canyons Parkway Extension Project Final Environmental Impact Report which was certified by the City of Dublin on August 20, 2019. This EA analyzes the Project’s effects on environmental resources by comparing the effects of the No Build Alternative to the Build Alternative. Avoidance, minimizations, and mitigation measures (AMMs) have been developed for the following topic areas: Utilities/Emergency Services, Traffic and Transportation/Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities, Visual/Aesthetics, Cultural Resources, Geology/Soils/Seismic/Topography, Paleontology, Hazardous Waste/Materials, Air Quality, Noise and Vibration, and Biological Resources. The measures are detailed under each topic section, and summarized in Appendix D.
