Title

Victoria Avenue Roadway Improvements Project

Description

The City of Highland desires to improve existing roadway and drainage infrastructure conditions for the Victoria Avenue corridor between Highland Avenue to the north and 3rd ST to the south within the City of Highland and a small portion of the City of San Bernardino. The project will rehabilitate the pavement on Victoria Avenue from 6th St. to Highland Avenue, which is a distance of approx. 9,200 linear feet -- the large majority of which is 64 feet in width from curb to curb -- as an effort to maintain this roadway segment with acceptable pavement conditions index rating. The rehabilitation of this section of roadway will involve the following: cold in-place recycling (CIR) and street pavement asphalt concrete overlay; remove and replace limited amounts of asphalt concrete pavement, concrete gutters; construct new handicap ramps; upgrade existing handicap ramps with detectable warning surfaces; install striping, pavement marking, and signing for vehicular and bike traffic; and install buried conduit for future fiber-optic cable installation. The project includes street improvements on Victoria Avenue from 3rd St to 6th St, including the widening of the roadway. The intersection at Victoria Avenue and 5th St will be improved to include widening the street for turn lanes and traffic signal improvements. Additionally, the project proposes to develop a landscaped median that would extend from 6th St to Ward St. within Victoria Avenue, which will prevent west bound left turns from Ward St. to Victoria Ave. The proposed drainage improvements include a storm drain within Victoria Ave. from 9th St. to the trapezoid channel along the south side of 3rd St. In order to redirect drainage at this location, the channel will need to be regraded approx. 1,400 Lineal Feet west of the storm drain outlet. The project may underground utilities from 6th St. south to 3rd St. Additionally, in order to develop a new storm drain alignment, the proposed project would require acquisition of ROW from property owners on the west side of Victoria Ave. between 6th St. and 3rd St.
