Document Description
The project includes replacement of guardrails, installation of new approach guardrails, and installation of transitional railing and terminal systems. New guardrail posts would be installed in drilled holes or be driven into the ground by a pile driver. Staging would occur along the affected road rights-of-way. Although a few shrubs and two small trees may be pruned up or removed to accommodate the project, no mature trees would be removed. No wetlands or other jurisdictional waters would be impacted during construction activities, and no suitable habitat for special-status species would be affected.
The project was identified as one of the City's safety priorities based on the age and condition of the existing guardrails. The purpose of the project is to correct existing deficiencies (i.e., insufficient guardrail height, missing object markers, lack of crash-rated end treatments, structurally unsound guardrail posts, missing hardware, etc.) to decrease the potential for collisions and reduce the severity of collisions.
