Title

GALE AVENUE ROAD REALIGNMENT

Description

The proposed project involves the provision of new roadway improvements (e.g., asphalt, curb and gutter, sidewalks, water and sewer lines, lighting) for the Gale Avenue roadway realignment as well as the development of two new access roads north/northwest of the realigned road. The limits of the realignment are from Azusa Avenue on the west to Auto Mall West on the east, which is an approximately 0.5 mile stretch of Gale Avenue. The proposed roadway improvements, which would take approximately 17 months to complete, would bring the roadway geometrics up to current standards based on the volume of traffic and the current speed limit and thereby improve the operation of the roadway. The existing curves just east of Azusa Avenue are substandard when applied to current volumes and speeds. The improvements would also enhance pedestrian access and circulation within and beyond the boundaries of the project site. The proposed roadway improvements would occur on approximately 8.6 acres of the overall 20.7-acre project site. To accommodate the proposed project the City proposes to acquire portions of some properties within the confines of the project site in order to implement the roadway improvements. The project comprises all proposed improvements and associated discretionary actions considered in this Initial Study.
