Receive and file.
Discussion:
The Plans, Specifications, and Engineer's Estimate (PS&E) for the Fred Waring
Drive Widening from Deep Canyon Road to Washington Street Project will be
completed May 11, 2004.
The subject project has been separated into two phases. Phase 1 is Fred
Waring Drive from Deep Canyon Road to California Avenue and Phase 2 is Fred
Waring Drive from California Avenue to Washington Street. The reason for
dividing the project is to reduce possible conflicts with this project and the Wamer
Trail Storm Drain Project (Project No. 510-04), as both of these projects have the
potential of being under construction at the same time. Of particular
consideration is the intersection of Fred Waring Drive and Warner Trail. Staff
would like to ensure that work through this intersection has minimal impact.
To meet the above goal, the Fred Waring Drive Widening from Deep Canyon to
Washington Street project will have the following general schedule:
Phase I: Fred Waring Drive from Deep Canyon Road to California
Avenue— Summer/Fall 2004
Phase II: Fred Waring Drive from California Avenue to Washington
Street— Summer/Fall 2005
