Title: Widening of North Chestnut Avenue between East Shaw & East Bullard Avenue
Description: The project is the widening of N. Chestnut Avenue between E. Shaw and E. Bullard Avenues in the City of Fresno. The project consists of the widening of the existing two-lane road to provide two traffic lanes and a bicycle lane in each direction of travel on N. Chestnut Avenue. The project will include a center two-way left turn lane between E. Shaw and E. Barstow Avenues. Separate left and right turn lanes would be provided at the intersections of Shaw / Chestnut, Barstow / Chestnut and Bullard / Chestnut, including southbound dual left turn lanes at Shaw / Chestnut. A traffic signal would be installed at the intersection of E. Bartstow and N. Chestnut Avenues. The proposed project would backfill the existing Fresno Irrigation District canal on the west side of N. Chestnut Avenue south of E. Bartstow Avenue and would include the under grounding of existing overhead utilities between E. Shaw and E. Bullard Avenues. Street lights, storm drains, curb and gutter and wheelchair ramps would be installed by the project. The street widening project includes the removal of 23 mature eucalyptus trees from the west side of N. Chestnut Avenue and one row (54 trees) of CSU Fresno walnut trees on the east side of N. Chestnut Avenue.
