Mayberry Parker Bridge Access Improvements Project

Mayberry Parker Bridge Access Improvements Project

The Mayberry Parker Bridge Access Improvement Project (Project) site encompasses approximately 0.61 acre located below and immediately to the north and south of the Colorado Street Bridge overpass of the Arroyo Seco Channel, in the northernmost portion of the Lower Arroyo Seco. The City of Pasadena Public Works Department, in coordination with the One Arroyo Foundation, proposes to: (1) provide new pedestrian access to the historic Mayberry Parker Bridge (Bridge), including placement of a steel pipe railing system onto the Bridge deck for safety and replacement a section of chain link fencing with tubular steel fencing; (2) rehabilitate existing trails to the north and south of the Bridge through stabilization (i.e., repair or replacement) of deteriorated trail segments, stairways, stone walls, and eroded slopes; and (3) provide a new high-visibility crosswalk between Desiderio Park and the Arroyo Seco at the Arroyo Boulevard and Westminster Drive intersection. The proposed improvements would be available for public use from sunrise to sunset, same as the Arroyo Seco as a whole. The proposed Project has been designed to provide improved physical facilities and open space resources to existing users of the Lower Arroyo Seco and is not anticipated to directly increase use of the area. The same locations and amounts of parking in the immediate area, similar circulation and access, and same types and extent of facilities would be provided with the sole exception of the high-visibility crosswalk.
