Skyview Road Pedestrian Bridge Project

Skyview Road Pedestrian Bridge Project

The County of Riverside Transportation Department proposes to construct a pedestrian bridge along Skyview Road to traverse the gap over the French Valley Creek as part of the Skyview Road Pedestrian Bridge Project (Project). The purpose of the Project is to provide pedestrian connectivity between the local elementary school, the French Valley Library, nearby residential communities, and the overall French Valley trail system. The proposed bridge will consist of an 18-foot-wide walkway width and will be approximately 370 feet long and 22 feet tall from the bottom of the river channel to the top of the handrailing at its highest point. The bridge will consist of four spans and three single-column piers. Geotechnical investigations will also be required. Additional features include sidewalks along Skyview Road to the French Valley Library, architectural treatments of the bridge, reconstruction of storm drains, nearby riparian/riverine restoration as mitigation in the French Valley Channel, and right of way acquisition, including partial acquisitions and temporary construction easements.
