The Avenue 50 & Avenue 52 Improvements Project, led
by WEBB, involves comprehensive street enhancements
to improve mobility, safety, and regional connectivity. The project spans 2.5 miles along Avenue 50 from Jefferson
Street to the eastern Indio city limit and one mile along Avenue 52 from Madison Street to Monroe Street. These
improvements align with the City of Indio’s General Plan Update and the City of La Quinta’s Circulation Plan,
ensuring consistency with regional transportation goals.
WEBB’s scope of work includes alignment studies,
environmental approvals, right-of-way acquisition, utility coordination, and traffic signal modifications. Avenue 50 improvements incorporate a Class IV Cycle Track, pedestrian pathways, ADA-compliant sidewalks, and expanded
drainage facilities. Avenue 52 enhancements focus on
achieving the ultimate General Plan cross-section, including bike lanes, widened roadways, and traffic safety measures.
A major challenge of the project was coordinating with multiple jurisdictions (Indio, La Quinta, CVWD, IID) and addressing right-of-way impacts on 37 parcels, including residential developments, commercial properties, and the Empire Polo Club. Utility relocation required negotiations with IID for 92kV transmission lines, ensuring minimal disruptions and costeffective placement. The project also needed to comply with Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival construction restrictions, requiring a phased construction approach.
To optimize resources, WEBB conducted in-depth research on property rights, successfully clarifying ownership responsibilities and reducing relocation costs. By securing strategic
agreements and designing around existing infrastructure, WEBB mitigated potential conflicts and streamlined approvals.

JLC SIMILAR PROJECT EXPERIENCE
Case Road Widening, City of Perris (June 2020 to January 2025): JLC was a subconsultant to Webb & Associates in the development of roadway improvement plans for 2.5 miles of Case Road.
The proposed roadway improvement included the design of a road, ramp design to I-215, a bridge for the San Jacinto River and localized storm drain. Due to the magnitude of the project, JLC was tasked to perform local hydrology analysis for the proposed roadway and coordinate with Mr. Caldwell who performed the regional floodplain analysis for the San Jacinto River. The proposed design had several challenges given the constraints associated with the Regional Conservation Authority, environmental jurisdictional issues, existing utilities and topography. As part of the project improvements, JLC assessed multiple localized drainage alternatives to ensure that the project would provide flood protection for the proposed roadway.
Ono Track Expansion and Storm Drain Culvert Extensions for BNSF, City of San Bernardino (March 2019 to August 2024): JLC provided stormwater and drainage technical support for 5 miles of railroad expansion on behalf of BNSF & TKDA. JLC was under contract with TKDA to perform a regional hydrology study and a WQMP for the runoff tributary to the railroad corridor located along the westerly side of I-215. JLC was required to assess approximately 800 acres of watershed area. JLC prepared Hydrology & Hydraulic Reports to address the existing flooding and potential improvements that project required to address impacts resulting from the railroad expansion. The hydrology report and WQMP were used as part of the CEQA and NEPA processed for the project. During final engineering, JLC provided technical support for the construction of 5 proposed culvert that BNSF proposed. These culverts connected to existing storm drain infrastructure owned and operated by Caltrans. As part of the study, JLC was required to update the hydraulic model for the storm drain located along I-215. The storm drain model assessed 9,500 feet of existing storm drain. Moreover, JLC was requested to provide technical support to coordinate with the Caltrans Hydraulic Section during the agency processing phase of the project. The proposed hydraulic reports for the proposed storm drain were submitted to Caltrans for review and approval.
Jackson Avenue Street Improvements, City of Indio & County of Riverside (July 2022 to August 2024): JLC provided stormwater and drainage technical support for 1.5 miles of roadway improvements for Jackson Avenue which extended from Avenue 49 to Avenue 52. The project was a multi-agency project which included the City of Indio and the County of Riverside. JLC was under contract with Webb & Associates to provide regional & localized hydrology assessment for the project. Due to the lack of drainage infrastructure, JLC and Webb worked on several drainage solutions that promoted the use of infiltration to reduce the flooding within the proposed roadway improvements. The drainage goal of the project was to develop a solution that would not worsen the existing drainage conditions along Jackson Avenue, Avenue 50, Avenue 51 and Avenue 52.

Cole Avenue Storm Drain Improvements
City of Riverside - Public Works Department | Project Engineer The Cole Avenue Storm Drain Improvements between Lurin Avenue and Krameria Avenue conveyed runoff from the surrounding residential developments and discharged to a new outlet structure, eliminating continual nuisance drainage problems as well as eliminating flooding problems associated with the intersection flooding that occurs during most storm events. The project watershed is developed along residential home sites. There were no storm drain systems except along Lurin Avenue. The watershed area was subject to surface runoff within the street right-of-way. The area was also subject to nuisance runoff associated with landscape irrigation on a frequent basis. WEBB designed 2,500- FT of storm drain improvements that reduced nuisance flows in the tract and in the roadside channel on the south side of Lurin Avenue to meet the future needs of the area. The alignment WEBB selected discharges runoff into the existing drainage feature 350-FT west of the intersection of Cole Avenue and Lurin Avenue via an impact energy dissipater structure to reduce the construction footprint within the existing right-of-way. This minimized the need for additional right-of-way and reduced the impact to existing vegetation. The system was designed so to easily connect to the future drainage system in Cole Avenue.

Joseph Castaneda, PE,
Principal Engineer/ Drainage Task Leader
Tasks to be Involved: Hydrology & Hydraulic Studies, Culvert & Floodplain Assessments
[Brief Biography/Key Qualifications] Mr. Castaneda has been working in the stormwater and drainage field for over 27 years. His career has focused on projects with major flooding and drainage constraints. Mr. Castaneda has been an On-Call Consultant with RCFC&WCD since 2008 and actively performing work for the City of Hemet & RCFC&WCD on the Hemet Valley Master Drainage Plan.
Relevant Project Experience
Tract Map 38979, City of Hemet, CA (January 2024 to Present): Drainage Task Leader, Mr.
Castaneda is the drainage consultant in the design of a residential project adjacent to Warren Road. The project consist of 200 residential lots and 3 detention/water quality basins. The project extends just north of Devonshire Avenue and south of Esplanade Avenue. JLC was required to study 130 acres of drainage area from a hillside area that impacted the property and Warren Road. The major drainage goal was to investigate drainage solutions that would minimize the flooding along Warren Road.
Historical Flood Plain Analyses for Vernal Pool Complex Along MWD Aqueduct, City of Hemet CA (March 2005 to June 2007): Mr. Castaneda was the Project Manager that lead a drainage team that studied the existing vernal pool complex located along the MWD Aqueduct as part of the Garret Ranch Development that was a 200 acre project bounded by Florida Avenue, Warren Road, Myers Road and Devonshire Avenue. The Vernal Pool Complex is roughly located between Florida Avenue and extends south to Hemet Channel. JLC was requested to assess the hydrology and floodplain for the vernal pool area at the request of the Riverside Regional Conservation Authority. As part of the Vernal Pool study, JLC assessed over 4,500 acres of drainage area that was tributary to the vernal pool complex.
Approximately 1,800 acres of the drainage area are tributary to Warren Road. The purpose of the study was to understand the flooding and inundation areas along roadways and undeveloped land upstream and downstream of the vernal pool complex.
Tract Map 36510 Mass Grading Drainage Report, City of Hemet, CA (June 2021 to December 2022): Mr. Castaneda was retained by Richland and MBI to assess the existing floodplain upstream of Warren Road north of Florida Avenue. The purpose of the study was to assess how the proposed development that proposed to construct a regional basin would alter the runoff from a 1,300 acre watershed upstream of the Devonshire Avenue and Myers Road Intersection. The drainage study assessed the existing floodplain using 1 foot topographical mapping and the hydrology model developed for the upstream drainage area.
Hemet Valley Master Drainage Plan, City of Hemet & County of Riverside, CA (2014 to Present):
JLC is a subconsultant to MBI providing hydrology and hydraulic technical expertise to develop a Master Drainage Plan for an area roughly Bounded by Florida Avenue to the north, Domenigoni Parkway to the south, California Road to the west and Sanderson Road to the east. The purpose of the Master Drainage Plan is to provide proposed master drainage plan alignments for areas that have not been assessed and coordinate the proposed alignment with the existing approved Master Drainage Plans. The purpose of the Hemet Valley Master Drainage Plan is to provide proposed and updated alignment that will provide flood protection for the area that is within the City of Hemet sphere of influence and ensure that the system account for the existing development that is currently in place.

Telegraph Road Bridge Widening, City of Pico Rivera
Translutions is working on the traffic operations analysis report, VMT analysis, and the construction impact analysis for the Telegraph Road Bridge Project in the City of Pico Rivera. The proposed project will widen the bridge over the Rio Hondo River. Translutions recommended strategies which would allow traffic operations to be minimally impacted during construction, a major deviation from the RFP where the recommendation was to reduce the number of lanes on the bridge during construction. The analyses are being conducted using the SCAG RTP model. Mr. Bhattacharjee is the Principal in Charge.
Shadow Mountain Road, Helendale area of San Bernardino County Translutions prepared on the traffic operations analysis for the proposed Shadow Mountain Road Grade Separation project from a traffic operations and vehicle miles traveled perspective. The project consists of constructing a 4-lane roadway to extend Shadow Mountain Road from Helendale Road, over the Mojave River, to National Trails Highway. The project also includes constructing a grade separation over the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railroad. The proposed project will provide better access for the community and railroad crossing safety benefits for the developing Helendale community. Reduced delays are also anticipated at the railroad crossing. The study objectives include (1) documentation of existing weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic conditions (including existing accident data in the vicinity of the site); (2) evaluation of weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic conditions for Interim Year (2020) conditions; (3) evaluation of weekday AM and PM peak hour traffic conditions for Long Range 2040 conditions; (4) evaluation of construction impacts for operations and VMT; and (4) evaluation of CEQA impacts under VMT. Mr. Bhattacharjee is the Principal in Charge.
I-10 8th Street Interchange
Translutions is working on the traffic operations analysis report for the I-10/8th Street interchange in the City of Banning. The analysis was based on the Riverside Transportation Analysis Model and the SCAG Regional Transportation Plan. Traffic operations at the study area intersections will be conducted using HCM 6th Edition for a multiple period analysis, which accounts for the carryover of unmet demand from one time period to the next during periods of oversaturation. The analysis was also used to identify residual queues in a previous period that persist to the start of an additional analysis period using SimTraffic software for multiple period analysis. A failure year analysis will also conducted to determine the last year at which the project would continue to operate at satisfactory levels of service and all queues would fit within the available storage lengths.
I-5 Utica Avenue
Translutions is working on the Intersection Control Evaluation (ICE) for the Utica Avenue and Interstate 5 located in unincorporated Kings County. The ICE analysis will be consistent with the procedures included in the Caltrans Traffic Operations Policy Directive 13-02 Intersection Control Evaluation (August 2013). The objective of the evaluation will be to identify access solution concepts that will meet the transportation purpose and need consistent with system performance goals, project context, and financial constraints. This assessment will include a planning-level capacity analysis to identify the preliminary size or footprint of each study area intersection.
SR-210 Alder Avenue Interchange, City of Rialto, San Bernardino County Translutions prepared the traffic operations analysis report for the SR-210/Alder Avenue in the City of Rialto. The analysis was based on the San Bernardino Transportation Analysis Model and the SCAG Regional Transportation Plan. Traffic operations at the study area intersections was conducted using HCM 6th Edition for a multiple period analysis, which accounts for the carryover of unmet demand from one time period to the next during periods of oversaturation. The analysis was also used to identify residual queues in a previous period that persist to the start of an additional analysis period. SimTraffic software used for the multiple period analysis since it captures the driver behavior and models the interaction of vehicles within a roadway network. A failure year analysis was also conducted to determine the last year at which the project would continue to operate at satisfactory levels of service and all queues would fit within the available storage lengths. A comparison of collision data within the project study are to statewide average collision rates on similar facilities was conducted using data provided by Caltrans for a three-year period. Mr. Bhattacharjee is the Principal in Charge.

Translutions is part of a multi-disciplinary team of consultants for this project. Translutions’ role is to evaluate traffic as well as pedestrian and bike operations and identify potential land use changes and their impacts on the transportation system. Mr. Bhattacharjee was the Principal in Charge.
Lytle Creek Roadway Sufficiency
Translutions prepared a sufficiency analysis for the proposed Lytle Creek Road in the City of Fontana. Lytle Creek Road is classified as a four-lane roadway in the City’s General Plan. Due to geometric constraints, right of way issues, and SCE towers, the four-lane classification wasn’t geometrically feasible. Translutions conducted an analysis and recommended intersection design strategies to lower traffic volumes on Lytle Creek Road to provide acceptable operations under year 2035. Mr. Bhattacharjee was the Principal in Charge.

TECHNICAL PROPOSAL
APPROACH AND UNDERSTANDING
Project Understanding
Warren Road
The City of Hemet (City) is seeking proposals for professional engineering services to design the Warren Road Improvements in three phases:
Phase 1 – Esplanade Avenue to Stetson Avenue
Phase 2 – Stetson Avenue to Salt Creek Bridge
Phase 3 – Salt Creek Bridge Widening
These phases may be further divided after a preliminary assessment based on constraints, feasibility, and available funds.
The widening of Warren Road between Esplanade Avenue and Domenigoni Parkway, including the bridge over Salt Creek, is a TUMF-eligible improvement with a total cost of $24.1 million in the current program.
According to the City’s Roadway Circulation Master Plan, Warren Road was classified as a 6-lane divided arterial from Esplanade Avenue to the future Walden Weaver Road and a 4-lane undivided secondary. The City has performed a General Plan Amendment and determined that Warren Road from Esplanade Avenue to Domenigoni Parkway is a 4-lane secondary (70’ curb to curb in a 94’ right-of-way). Warren Road is an important north-south corridor located on the western City boundary, connecting the Ramona Expressway and Domenigoni Parkway.
The existing 2-lane roadway carries a significant amount of high-speed vehicle traffic and has the following deficiencies:
• No paved shoulders
• Sub-standard horizontal curves
• Lack of pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure
• Open roadway ditches and drainage per the Master Plan Storm Drain • Conflicting utilities
• Poor condition of the railroad crossing
• Inadequate intersection controls like traffic signals • Insufficient right-of-way
• Lack of streetlights
• Segment located in the airport restriction zone
• Part of the roadway located in MHSCP criteria cells and RCA reserve lands • Half-width bridge
The City plans to conduct a Preliminary Assessment and Phasing Analysis to identify constraints, feasibility, costs, and schedules. Once funding is secured, the City aims to proceed with the final design. Albert A. Webb Associates Team (WEBB Team) acknowledges the City’s objectives to improve Warren Road, enhancing mobility, safety, and community well-being, thereby elevating residents’ quality of life.

PROJECT APPROACH:
1. Project Scope
As detailed in our scope of work, our success in delivering complex, multi-disciplinary projects stems from a comprehensive understanding of project requirements, key stakeholder collaboration, the contributions of each discipline, and the feasibility of design features.
2. Project Team
To meet City expectations and uphold our quality standards, we adopt a proactive approach that includes:
Assigning the Right Project Manager, Dilesh Sheth, PE, TE, who will be the primary point of contact for the City, overseeing the delivery of services under this contract. Dilesh will mobilize WEBB services and resources to promptly and effectively respond to the City’s needs. As project manager, he will ensure consistent coordination with the City, maintain the schedule, track the budget, and drive continuous progress across all project fronts.
If Dilesh is unavailable during the contract, Eric Hays will step in as the backup project Manager to continue project coordination seamlessly.
Establishing a Committed and Competent Project Team The WEBB Team will apply its knowledge and experience to carry out tasks described in our scope of work. We intend to partner with the City of Hemet to perform the coordination successfully, complete the design, help with funding, and get the project ready for construction as quickly and efficiently as possible.
In response to the City’s needs and the project’s complexity, WEBB has assembled an experienced team of design experts for the street, drainage, structural, geotechnical, traffic signal, right-of-way mapping, railroad, street light, landscape, and utility coordination elements. The WEBB Team includes exceptionally skilled and local drainage experts Joe Castaneda with JLC Engineering & Consulting and Joseph Caldwell with WEBB. Joe Castaneda will provide drainage analysis and improvement plans for the roadway and MDP storm drain improvements, while Joseph Caldwell will prepare drainage and scour analysis related to the Salt Creek Bridge widening.
The WEBB Team includes exceptionally skilled and the well-experienced Mark Thomas team to support WEBB with the Salt Creek Bridge and help with the project phasing when needed. WEBB is working with Mark Thomas Project Management Approach
Our approach starts with our project manager, Dilesh, implementing the six elements highlighted below.

and Co. on Avenue 50 and Avenue 52 Projects for the City of Indio, the Harley Knox/I-215 Interchange for the City of Perris, and Avenue 50 Bridge for the City of La Quinta.
In addition, we have added a local geotechnical engineering firm, Inland Foundation, and a railroad crossing expert, Pacific Railway Enterprise, to help with the RCTC railroad crossing and CPUC processing and requirements.
3. Budget and Schedule
WEBB is dedicated to delivering technically successful and fiscally responsible projects. This is achieved by employing experienced staff equipped with the right tools for planning and tracking projects. Project cost management involves managing both design fees and construction costs.
Approach to Managing the Schedule: Our schedule management approach focuses on communication, meeting interim milestones, identifying information gaps, and adjusting priorities/resources to address unforeseen delays:
Meeting Interim Milestones: Progress will be monitored through action item lists as deliverables are prepared.
Tracking individual steps in developing technical documentation and setting interim goals/milestones will highlight any schedule slippage early, allowing for resource and priority adjustments.
Identifying Information Gaps: Project delays can occur when key information is unavailable. At the kickoff meeting, the WEBB team will identify needed data and desired timelines and follow up with stakeholders to facilitate information exchange and acquisition.
Adjusting Priorities/Resources: By understanding the project’s status in real-time versus the desired schedule through interim milestones/action item lists, we can initiate resource adjustments (additional help from Mark Thomas) to accelerate the completion of critical path/high-priority activities and keep the project on schedule.
4. Quality Reviews
For each project, WEBB conducts detailed quality control reviews at major deliverable milestones (Conceptual Design, 35%, 60%, 90%, and final level) and compiles an electronic QA/QC binder. This binder serves as a “one-stop shop” for the project’s QC checklists, forms, notes, contract requirements, and submittals. The forms are saved electronically and accessible to all project team members. The QA/QC Manager continually checks to enforce standards and QC procedures.
5. Communication
Progress meetings with the WEBB team will develop/review action item lists and completion status. Results from these meetings, including action items, will be shared with City of Hemet staff via conference calls to confirm information requirements, stakeholder decisions, data availability, and next steps.
6. Project Risks and Challenges
The WEBB team has performed a field review of the project site and understands the project intent and the City’s goals. Based on our review, we have identified challenges and recommended solutions for the project.
After reviewing the existing documents, as-built plans, surveys, and coordination with the City, these potential solutions need more analysis

Solution: WEBB proposes to conduct a preliminary assessment and phasing analysis to identify constraints, feasibility, opportunities, and phasing. This will ensure that the project aligns with the City’s goals and can be implemented with the current TUMF, DIF, and other funds as soon as possible. The analysis will include, but is not limited to, the following:
• Purpose and Need
• Site Assessment
• Data Collection
• Stakeholder Input
• Alignment Alternatives Phasing Analysis
• Right-of-Way Requirements and Approximate Costs
• Utility Relocation and Costs
• Environmental Determination and Mitigation Measures (By Others) • Opportunities and Risks
• Cost and Funding Strategies – TUMF, DIF, and Developer Fairshare • Delivery Schedule
• Phasing Analysis Report
Solution: Selecting the preferred roadway alignment involves considering several factors to ensure the road is safe, efficient, and cost-effective. We have prepared five exhibits showing potential alignment options (Exhibits A, B, C, and D), drainage improvements (Exhibit E), and bridge widening options. Some factors and potential solutions for the Warren Road alignment are as follows:
Between Esplanade Avenue and Devonshire Avenue (Exhibit A):
• The MWD aqueduct is located on the west side within a typical 350-foot-wide property. Obtaining right-ofway and/or easements from MWD will be difficult, so we propose holding the MWD property line as the west right-of-way line, widening the street to the east, and obtaining the necessary right-of-way and easement from the east. Preliminary analysis indicates we can keep existing SCE transmission/distribution poles in place.
• A developer is pursuing a residential development project (Hemet 80) on the east side. We propose coordinating the alignment and potential fair-share participation. • Approximately ¼ mile of Warren Road is improved to the ultimate on the east side. We will consider shifting the roadway alignment to the east to minimize the proposed widening, reduce costs, and maintain a uniform street section throughout.
Between Devonshire Avenue and Florida Avenue (SR74) (Exhibit A):
• RCA conserved land is located on the west side of Warren Road between Devonshire Avenue and SR74.
According to the MHSCP covered roads right-of-way, the maximum permanent and temporary impacts shall be no greater than 100 feet wide. We propose that the alignment will have no effect on the conservation land and will keep the footprint within 100 feet.

47 City of Hemet
Warren Road Improvements
Between Florida Avenue (SR74) and Stetson Avenue (Exhibit A):
• Hemet Auto Mall is located east of Warren Road and has improved the roadway to the east. 72” and 75” MWD aqueducts cross through Auto Mall and Warren Road, requiring coordination with the MWD. WEBB has recently completed Van Buren Road Improvements at the March JPA boundary, which required close coordination with the MWD. WEBB understands MWD requirements and how to protect its facility. • The Hemet-Ryan airport is located at the northeast corner of the Warren Road and Stetson Avenue intersection. It is in the most restricted Airport Zone A, extending on the west and south sides of the intersection. There are stringent limitations on the improvements, including height. WEBB has designed the Harley Knox Roundabout with breakable street lights just south of the March Airforce Reserve Base in a very restricted area. In addition to the airport restricted area, RCA conservation lands located along the west side will restrict the realignment. WEBB has developed preliminary alignments for Warren Road and Stetson Avenue, as shown in the exhibit in this proposal. The realignment is constrained by RCA reserved lands, and we may not be able to stay completely on Airport Zone A. WEBB will develop the solution for the Hemet-Ryan airport, Riverside County ALUC, and the City.
Between Stetson Avenue and Poplar Street (Exhibit B):
• Warren Road between Stetson Avenue and Corte Del Mar (entry into Del Webb development) crosses existing RCTC railroad tracks, the existing Riverside County Flood Control Channel, and the proposed Walden Weaver Road. RCTC owns the San Jacinto Branch Line (SJBL), which extends 38.3 miles between Highgrove and Hemet. Even if the tracks are not in use, they will require approval from the RCTC. WEBB has completed three railroad crossings in the City of Perris and provided close coordination with RCTC, Metrolink, and CPUC. Since the tracks are not in used we will not require CPUC approval and GO88. • The proposed realignment and widening will require reconstructing the Riverside County Flood Control channel. The drainage improvements are discussed under Key Issue #3. Walden Weaver Road is partially constructed, approximately 600’ from Warren Road to Stetson, just short of Avenue. The extension of Walden Weaver to Warren Road will create a major intersection, which will be signalized in the future. Our alignment study will consider future traffic signal pole locations, which will be very close to the flood control channel and future railroad crossing gates and signals. We have worked on similar railroad crossings, Ellis Avenue/Case Road and Mapes Road/Case Road in Perris, where signalized intersections are located less than 50’ from the intersections.
• A large residential development is proposed on the west side of Warren Road. WEBB will coordinate the designs to ensure roadway drainage and street improvements are adequately addressed and that the ultimate design meets all regulatory requirements and community needs, resulting in safe, functional, and aesthetically pleasing improvements. Additionally, WEBB will work with the City and Developer to establish their fair share.
• We are proposing narrow lanes slightly to avoid widening the existing drainage culvert between Mustang and Poplar, which will lessen the environmental and cost impact.

Poplar Street to Salt Creek Bridge (Exhibit C, and D):
Using the City’s General Plan and secondary roadway section, w looked into roadway alignment alternatives for Warren Road from the Salt Creek Bridge widening to a logical terminus near Poplar Street.
This first alternative proposes to:
• Construct interim alignment and only widen Warren
Road to the existing Simpson Road
• Only construct edge of shoulder to edge of the
shoulder, allowing for coordination with future
development plans and the ability for the City to
discuss a fair share of trunk line “I.”
• Address and improve stopping sight distance at
the Warren Road/Simpson Road intersection
The second alternative proposes to:
• Introduce a reversing curve and realign and widen
Warren Road to Poplar Street
• Only build curb to curb
• Construct interim trunk line “I” if determined feasible as the ultimate alignment • Both alternatives have independent utility and logical termini for the environmental document and can both be looked at during that phase. This
would be further developed in PS&E, pending discussions about development once the path has been determined.
The Bridge widening will require realignment and widening of Warren Road south of the Domenigoni Parkway to align lanes.

49 City of Hemet
Warren Road Improvements
The Warren Road corridor is located through an area impacted by the San Jacinto Valley Master Drainage Plan and the Regional Hemet Area Drainage Plan. In general, major storm drains north of Tres Cerritos Avenue flow towards the San Jacinto River in the northerly direction. The area south of Tres Cerritos Avenue flows to the southwest towards the Hemet Channel and Salt Creek Channel. The project follows the phases outlined in the RFP, which divides the project into three phases: Phase 1 – Esplanade Avenue to Stetson Avenue, Phase 2 – Stetson Avenue to Salt Creek Bridge, and Phase 3 – Salt Creek Widening.
Phase 1 – Esplanade Avenue to Stetson Avenue
The existing terrain along Warren Road Phase 1 remains mostly undeveloped. Major developments are proposed along this reach, such as Ramona Creek, Tres Cerritos East, and a few other residential developments. The major drainage challenge for this reach is the vernal pool complex located between Devonshire Avenue and Stetson Avenue, just west of Warren Road. The design team has identified four major constraints for the Phase 1 Corridor as follows:
1. Collecting runoff from the hillside area east of Warren Road, which is located between Devonshire Avenue & Tres Cerritos Avenue.
2. The regional flood control facilities and development projects being proposed between Devonshire Avenue and Florida Avenue
3. The existing drainage facilities defined as the Line 2E, existing channels, culverts, and storm drain systems adjacent to Warren Road between Florida Avenue and Stetson Avenue
4. The shallow flooding and vernal pool complex area between Florida Avenue and Stetson Avenue The Project Team proposes to identify the shallow flooding associated with this corridor using HEC-RAS 2D modeling and hydrology results that can be obtained from the Hemet Valley Master Drainage Plan, if available.
The HEC-RAS 2D Model will use either RCFC&WCD or USGS LIDAR topographic mapping to assess the shallow flooding. The purpose of the shallow flooding is to identify interim drainage solutions. The downstream regional drainage facilities required for this area will most likely be constructed after the construction of Warren Road. Therefore, the proposed drainage solutions will ensure that roadway improvements will not adversely impact downstream and upstream property owners.
Phase 2 – Stetson Avenue to Salt Creek Bridge
Warren Road between Stetson Avenue and the Salt Creek Bridge is an active area with several planned developments. Our research shows developments are being constructed along the east side of Warren Road between the Hemet Channel and Poplar Street. These developments direct runoff to the Hemet MDP Line 3B Earthen Channel System. Moreover, there are planned developments on the east side of Warren Road between Poplar Street and Salt Creek Tract Map 38873 and along the west side of Warren Road between Hemet Channel and Mustang Way Tract Map 36481. Tract Map 38873 must direct flows directly to Salt Creek. Tract Map 36481 will send flows into a proposed detention basin that will eventually discharge into Line 3B, eventually discharging runoff into the existing RCFC&WCD Line B system. Along with the proposed development, the Project Team will study the Hemet Channel using data obtained from the RCFC&WCD Hemet Channel study that is in process.
The study’s purpose is to determine the 100-year culvert crossing required for the Hemet Channel just south of the existing RCTD railroad corridor. As part of the Hemet Channel assessment, an ultimate culvert size will be determined based on the roadway constraints. However, the Hemet Channel downstream of Warren Road is a project that will most likely not be constructed for another 10-15 years. As a result, the interim culvert will Key Issue #3 Drainage Improvements

Warren Road Improvements
be designed with a soft bottom backfill condition that matches the existing flowlines within the Hemet Channel.
The Project Team will coordinate with the adjacent developers through Outreach Meetings to develop an overall drainage strategy to resolve drainage issues for the proposed residential developments and Warren Road. The Outreach Meetings aim to determine the timing and schedule associated with the proposed development and Warren Road Improvement Plans. The goal of the Outreach Meeting is to have an ultimate drainage facilities map using the Hemet Valley MDP and the proposed infrastructure constructed as part of the approved Tract Maps. Additionally, the Project Team will develop interim storm drain improvements required for the Warren Road Improvements Plans should future developments post-date the Warren Road project. The goal of the interim storm drain plan is to ensure that interim facility removal is minimized.
Phase 3 – Creek Bridge
Joseph Caldwell has extensive experience in hydraulic modeling and floodplain management. He has led projects like the San Jacinto River project, utilizing advanced modeling techniques and managing stakeholder engagement effectively. His expertise will be crucial for the Warren Road Bridge widening project.WEBB will provide comprehensive engineering services for the hydraulic analysis of the proposed Warren Road Bridge widening in Salt Creek.
The approach includes Verification of Existing Floodplain Hydraulics: Utilizing existing topography and data, the current floodplain hydraulics will be modeled according to RCFC & WCD requirements and the US Army Corps of Engineers HEC-RAS software. Compliance with Caltrans LAPM: Ensuring all analyses adhere to Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) standards.Design and Channel Analysis: Evaluating design requirements and channel geometric characteristics based on upstream and downstream field crosssection data.Investigation of Hydraulic Constraints: Identifying potential constraints before analyzing alternative designs.Multi-Frequency Design Flow Analysis: Assessing the hydraulics of various design flows and their impacts to determine the level of flood protection.Extended Hydraulic Analysis: Extending the analysis upstream and downstream to evaluate the impact of existing flooding fully.Scour and Sediment Transport Analysis: Using hydraulic parameters to determine additional facility protection requirements and the extent of the necessary revetment.
SALT CREEK BRIDGE WIDEN
Our team has extensive experience in bridge river crossings and bridge widenings, including recent projects:
Yorba Linda Blvd Widening over the Santa Ana River and La Novia Ave Bridge widening over San Juan Creek.
Our relevant experience and technical skills are coupled with our creative and innovative design approach to bring significant benefits to the project.
The Existing Salt Creek Bridge, built in 1996, is a continuous 5-span Cast-In-Place Prestressed (CIP/PS) concrete box girders on reinforced concrete pier walls and open-end seat type abutments, all supported on Cast-In-Drilled-Hole (CIDH) concrete piles. Our structures team has obtained the existing Salt Creek bridge asbuilt plans and the Bridge Inspection Reports (BIR) to study the existing bridge type and its conditions for the purpose of this proposal.

Warren Road Improvements
Salt Creek Bridge Widen - Alternative 1
Salt Creek Bridge widening will consist of constant width of 42’-2” on the northeast side of the existing bridge.
The proposed widening of the Salt Creek Bridge will match the 5-span bridge length. Two types of concrete superstructure are feasible, that will maintain the existing creek freeboard requirement, and both structure types will be studied and compared during preliminary design phase.
Figure 1 - Salt Creek Bridge Widen Alternative 1
Concrete superstructure will be supported on pier walls matching existing bridge piers, its stiffness, and structural behavior in response to seismic activity. Abutments will match existing open-end seat-type abutments as well, providing opening to existing access roads. Proposed widening will be connected to the existing bridge by concrete deck closure pour at the superstructure and drill and bond dowel connections at the substructure, pier walls and abutments. See Figure 1 for Salt Creek Bridge Widen Alternative 1.
Salt Creek Bridge Widen - Alternative 2
Widening Salt Creek Bridge by building a separate and parallel 43’-2” wide bridge northeast of the existing bridge, similar to S. Sanderson Ave bridges upstream, is a feasible alternative. The proposed Salt Creek Bridge (Right) will be separated by a few feet from the existing Salt Creek Bridge (Left) to have enough room for construction. Actual separation distance will be determined during the design phase, considering seismic displacement demand of the two bridges and space requirements for constructability. The proposed Right bridge will match the existing 5-span Left bridge length and structure depth. Separating the structures provides greater flexibility with profile, grade, and alignment, helps facilitate staging, and will also minimize disturbance to existing traffic during construction. Two types of concrete superstructure are feasible, similar to Alternative 1, and both structure types will be studied and compared during Type Selection phase:
• CIP/PS Concrete box girders

Figure 2 - Salt Creek Bridge Widen Alternative 1
The Right bridge concrete superstructure will be supported on circular multi-column piers since the Right bridge is not connected to the existing bridge. Abutments will match existing Left bridge abutments, open-end seat-type abutments as well, providing opening to existing access roads. Multi-column pier columns will be supported on large diameter concrete Cast-In-Drilled-Hole (CIDH) piles. Multi-column piers on concrete CIDH piles are a more efficient and cost-effective solution compared to the pier walls supported on group of piles.
Both construction duration and construction cost will be reduced. See Figure 2 for Salt Creek Bridge Widen Alternative 2.
Existing Salt Creek Bridge Repair Work
According to the latest inspection, dated July 2, 2024, repair work recommendations are:
• Full bridge deck treatment with Methacrylate resin
• Clean and repair metal tube railing
• Deck drain inlet debris clean up
Existing bridge deck will be treated with Methacrylate resin and deck drain inlets will be cleaned up as part of the bridge widening project for both widen alternatives. Since the proposed bridge widening is connecting on the same side as where the metal tube bridge railing is, this railing will be removed, and railing repair work is no longer required for widen Alternative 1.
Challenges
Key challenges to work through carefully during this project, applicable to both the widen alternatives, are listed below:
• Environmental process and permits
» Pier supports (total 4) are all located within the Salt Creek Channel. Our team is well acquainted with the environmental process for this type of project.
• Construction duration within the environmentally sensitive footprint » Properly sized and laid out pile group will help avoid having unnecessarily large pile cap. Our design team will try to keep pier support pile cap size minimal by using efficient pile size and layout, which will help keep excavation footprint minimal in channel bed, therefore reducing construction duration and cost.

Warren Road Improvements
Street improvement projects require extensive coordination with utility companies to eliminate conflicts, maintain the schedule, and minimize relocation costs. The Warren Road Street Improvement Project, while primarily focused on street improvements, also involves significant utility coordination and relocation efforts. WEBB will strive to minimize the relocation of existing utilities through several overhead and underground utilities along Warren Road, which will need to be relocated or adjusted.
To determine financial responsibility for these relocations, we must first establish prior rights. WEBB’s team will research, compile, and locate all easement interests within and adjacent to the streets. We will have a title company research chain of title reports for each impacted property to determine prior rights. A right-of-way map will be prepared, showing all easements and their dates of recordation. This information, along with supporting documents, will be provided to the various utility companies. Any required relocations or modifications will be coordinated and scheduled accordingly.
WEBB follows a mandatory utility coordination procedure that involves a systematic approach. This includes the following steps:
1. Research
2. Face-to-face meetings
3. Utility logging
4. Preliminary noticing
5. Potholing
6. Field review
7. Design review requests
8. Relocation or adjustment requests
By adhering to this procedure, WEBB ensures effective coordination and minimizes disruptions during the Warren Road Street Improvement Project.

TASK 5: GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Our scope will be completed in two stages. The first stage will consist of a pavement investigation for the entire alignment, from Esplanade Avenue to the Salt Creek Bridge. The second stage will consist of the geotechnical investigation for the Salt Creek Bridge itself.
Stage 1 – Warren Road Pavement Investigation
The pavement investigation will consist of the following general tasks • Preliminary pavement condition survey, determination of pavement coring locations, and encroachment permits. Proposed core locations will be marked on the pavement surface and Underground Service Alert will be notified. Encroachment permits will be obtained from the City of Hemet. • Pavement coring. Preliminarily we plan to core the pavement at a spacing of approximately 1,000 feet, alternating core locations across travel lanes. The thickness of underlying aggregate base will be measured through the core holes and samples of subgrade soil will be obtained for laboratory testing. • Laboratory testing. Laboratory testing will be performed on representative samples obtained from the pavement coring. The testing will include sieve analysis, plastic index, moisture content and R-value. • Analysis and report preparation. A final report will be prepared that will include:
» Photos and description of existing pavement conditions at core locations » Summary of pavement and aggregate base thickness measurements » Laboratory test results
» Site plan(s) with core locations
» Alternative recommendations for pavement rehabilitation including (1) removal and replacement, (2) mill and overlay, and (3) full depth reclamation (FDR)
» Recommendations for pavement section design construction in new pavement areas » Alternative recommendations for pavement subgrade stabilization, as necessary, including cement treatment, crushed rock and geogrid.
» Construction considerations
Caltrans’ Site Investigation Guide for Mechanistic-Empirical Design of California Pavements (2022) will be used as a general guide for the pavement evaluation.
Stage 2 – Salt Creek Bridge Geotechnical Investigation
The geotechnical investigation will consist of the following general tasks. The investigation will be performed in general accordance with Caltrans’ publication, “Foundation Reports for Bridges, 2024”. • Collection and review of pertinent geologic literature, groundwater data, and geotechnical information. This will include review of existing as-built bridge plans, foundation reports and any other available geotechnical information.
• Preparation of exploratory location plan, utility clearance and permitting. An exploration plan will be prepared
15.F.
61 City of Hemet
Warren Road Improvements
for review by Webb, the City of Hemet and the bridge structure engineer. The plan will show exploration locations, depths and access conditions. We will obtain encroachment permits from the City of Hemet and Riverside County Flood Control District for exploration in the channel and abutment areas.
We understand there may be U.S. Department of Fish and Wildlife, Army Corps of Engineers, and other jurisdictional requirements for exploration within the Salt Creek Channel. The extent of such requirements is not currently known. Any permitting to comply with such requirements is not included in our proposed scope of work.
• Subsurface exploration. We plan to explore the bridge foundation soil conditions with a combination of rotary wash borings and cone penetration test (CPT) soundings. At least one boring or CPT will be placed at each proposed pier and abutment location. Borings and CPTs will extend to planned depths as deep as 100 feet below existing ground surface, or until practical is encountered. The borings will be logged a field staff geologist who will also obtain soil samples for laboratory testing. Shear wave velocity testing will be performed within one of the CPT soundings to determine V100, the average shear wave velocity within the upper 100 feet of soil profile for seismic site classification. • Laboratory testing. Laboratory testing will be performed on selected samples obtained from the borings.
The testing will include unit weight, moisture content, sieve analysis, plastic index, consolidation, direct shear strength and corrosivity. The testing program may be modified, depending on the actual subsurface conditions encountered and samples obtained.
• Analysis and report preparation. The geologic, exploration, and laboratory test data will be reviewed and analyzed to develop conclusions and recommendations for design and construction of the Salt Creek bridge widening. The data, conclusions and recommendations will be summarized in a bridge foundation report that will address the following.
» Site geology and geologic hazards including fault rupture, landsliding, liquefaction, flooding and scour » Subsurface soil and groundwater conditions with idealized soil profiles » Seismicity and acceleration response spectra
» Corrosivity
» Shallow foundations
» Deep foundations
» Bridge abutment and retaining walls
» Approach embankments
» Construction considerations
The bridge foundation report will be prepared in accordance with Caltrans’ Foundation Reports for Bridges format. The report will include results of laboratory testing and logs of test borings (LOTBs).
Deliverables: Records obtained from the city and outside agencies and utility locations are shown on the base mapping.

TASK 6: DRAINAGE REPORTS
6.1 Warren Road: The scope of work assumes that available hydrology for the ultimate condition is readily available based on studies performed for several developments and the Hemet Valley Master Drainage Plan.
The Project Team will perform research to maximize obtaining the available approved data for the area. This would reduce workload in re-creating hydrology & hydraulic assessments for the area.
The Drainage Report approach will focus on studying the interim condition and assumt that development has not constructed any storm drain infrastructure. Therefore, the scope of work requires the following hydrology and hydraulic assessments to be performed for the area:
1. The project team will perform an offsite hydrology assessment for approximately 1200 acres of area to determine the existing condition flow rate for the project. The assessment will focus on performing a hydrology study for the area between Devonshire Avenue and Stetson Road in order to assess the existing sheet flow condition emanating from the watershed area to the east. The existing condition flow rate will be used to design interim storm drain systems and culverts required to flood protect the project from offsite flows.
2. The project team will perform a localized street hydrology for approximately 5 miles of roadway for Warren Road. The hydrology analyses will use the proposed vertical street design to determine the watershed areas within the road right-of-way.
3. The project team will be required to develop a HEC-RAS 2D Floodplain model to evaluate the shallow flooding that emanates from the watershed east of Warren Road. This shallow floodplain analyses is critical in identifying how the existing area inundates Warren Road. The shallow floodplain model will assist in determining where to place culverts and storm drain to flood protect Warren Road. The floodplain model will also be used to provide the City a pre-project and post-project comparative analyses.
4. During the design process, the project team will develop a drainage facilities map for the project. The drainage facilities map will be a plan that will provide a conceptual solution as the project commences. The drainage facilities map will undergo revisions as the plans are processed to a final 100% plan set.
The hydrology and hydraulic assessment developed for the project will be documented in a Drainage Report.
The project scope assumes that 2-3 iteration of the report will be prepared as part of the Roadway Alignment Study and Advance Planning Study.
6.2 Salt Creek – Warren Road Bridge Widening: WEBB will provide engineering services to perform the Hydraulic Analysis for the proposed Warren Road Bridge widening in Salt Creek. The hydraulic analysis will include verification of existing floodplain hydraulics based on existing topography previously obtained during the research and investigation. The existing floodplain hydraulics condition will be modeled utilizing Riverside County Flood Control District and Water Conservation District (RCFC & WCD) requirements and the US Army Corps of Engineers HEC-RAS analysis software. The analysis will be performed in accordance with Caltrans LAPM. Design requirements and channel geometric characteristics will be analyzed based on the proposed channel upstream and field cross-section information upstream and downstream. Potential hydraulic constraints will be investigated prior to analyzing proposed alternative designs. The hydraulics of multi-frequency design flows will be investigated, and the associated hydraulic impacts will be assessed to determine the level of flood protection associated with the crossing. The hydraulic analysis will extend an adequate distance upstream and downstream from the proposed project to evaluate the impact of the existing flooding fully. Hydraulic parameters generated will be utilized for the scour and sediment transport analysis to determine additional facility protection requirements. In addition, the limits and extent of the required revetment upstream and downstream will be determined.

(a) Payment shall be made in accordance with City’s usual accounting procedures upon receipt and approval of an itemized invoice setting forth the services performed.

Each itemized invoice shall identify at the top of the first page, the Not to Exceed Amount (as set by Section 4(a) above), the total amount billed to date, the services rendered during the billing period, and the amount due for the statement invoice for which reimbursement is sought in the statement invoice. The invoice shall detail charges by the following categories: labor (by sub-category), travel, materials, equipment, supplies, and sub consultant contracts. Sub consultant charges shall be detailed by the following categories: labor, travel, materials, equipment and supplies.

City shall independently review each invoice submitted by the Consultant to determine whether the work performed and expenses incurred are in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that no charges or expenses are disputed, the invoice shall be approved and paid according to the terms set forth in subsection (c). In the event any charges or expenses are disputed by City, the original invoice shall be returned by City to Consultant for correction and resubmission.
