Document Description
The project proposes to construct an approximately 340-foot-long concrete girder bridge over Murrieta Creek to connect Avenida Alvarado with Overland Drive. The bridge would accommodate four travel lanes, left-turn lane(s) in the median, and two six-foot-wide Class II bike lanes for a curbto-curb road width of 68 feet. The bridge design would incorporate aesthetically treated concrete barriers, architectural metal hand and bicycle railings. The architectural treatments at the concrete barriers and abutment retaining walls will discourage graffiti. A six-foot-wide sidewalk would be added on the bridge’s southern side for pedestrians to cross the creek. Two piers and two abutments would be placed in the creek to support the bridge. The existing bike trail on the west side of the creek would intersect with the extended Overland Drive by a signal-controlled at-grade crossing. In order to match the roadway two-lane section on Avenida Alvarado on the west side of Diaz Road, the project would transition the existing lane configuration in the eastern portion of Avenida Alvarado to be consistent with the four-lane configuration of the bridge. Traffic signals and associated signing, striping, streetlights, and utilities would be installed at the intersections Overland Drive/Enterprise Circle West and Diaz Road/Avenida Alvarado. Traffic signals and streetlights will be installed at the Overland Drive/Commerce Center Drive intersection by a separate project. Associated improvements along Diaz Road and Avenida Alvarado would include undergrounding electrical utilities, constructing curbs, gutters, and sidewalks, relocating sewer and water facilities, and adding traffic signage and striping. Landscaping modifications would occur along the bridge approach, along Diaz Road, along Overland Drive, and at the intersections of Overland Drive/Enterprise Circle West and Diaz Road/Avenida Alvarado.
