Valley Avenue at Northway Road Traffic Signal Installation – Design plans are underway for a new traffic signal at the intersection of Valley Avenue and Northway Road, adjacent to Harvest Park Middle School. The project will include new concrete curb extensions at the southwest and southeast corners and improved crosswalk accessibility. This project will improve traffic safety and efficiency for students, pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists traveling through the area.
West Las Positas Boulevard Corridor Improvement Plan - The West Las Positas Boulevard Corridor Plan will create a new vision for the corridor, featuring an all ages and abilities bikeway network and improvements to pedestrian facilities. This project has been combined with the West Las Positas reconstruction project. The West Las Positas Boulevard Corridor Improvement Plan was approved by City Council on November 15, 2022. The City Council also authorized a more limited set of “quick build” pedestrian- and bicycle improvements that can be implemented in the near term on West Las Positas Boulevard, between Hopyard Road and Hacienda Drive. The quick build improvements are estimated to be installed in March 2023. The West Las Positas Boulevard reconstruction project 35% design plans are estimated to be finished by summer 2023. The project is expected to be constructed in 2024 (construction funding has not yet been identified).
I-680/Sunol Boulevard Interchange Project – The goals of this project are to work with Caltrans to provide congestion relief, operational safety improvements, and improve bicycle facilities through the interchange. The City will be the lead agency and will partner with the California State Department of Transportation during project development. The Environmental Clearance is expected in by early 2023. Upon receipt of the environmental clearance, an 18-month detailed design will commence where the new overpass, ramp alignments and traffic signals will be finalized.
The City of Pleasanton and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) developed a Draft Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration report for the I-680/Sunol Boulevard Interchange Improvement Project. Caltrans is the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) lead agency for the project, and the City of Pleasanton is the project sponsor. The draft document is available here. You may also access the document at the Caltrans District 4 website here.
