That the City Council authorize staff to begin the design and improvements for
a portion of the ring road at the California State University San Bernardino
campus providing for the improvement of the full four -lane road.
Discussion:
At the budget study session, Council asked staff to review the request from Cal State
University San Bernardino to develop the portion of the ring road connecting Cal State to
the entry of Berger Drive. Mr. Fred Jandt at Cal State had an engineered estimate for the
fully developed four -lane road and a two-lane road, which would be his preference. Mr.
Jandt indicated that a two-lane road could provide parking on the north side as the current
two-lane road at Cal State does. Building a four -lane road now, however, would
accomplish the same results providing the northern lanes for parking and the southern two
lanes for ingress and egress. The estimated cost for the four -lane road is $945,000. The
cost for the two-lane road is $525,000.
Since the portion of the road to be constructed would be on Agency property, it would
probably be the responsibility of the Agency/City to construct it with the Agency reimbursing
the City for all costs.
