Reconstruction will reduce the travel lane widths and add buffers to the existing bike lane facilities. Through the design process, Class IV lanes will also be considered along the segment. The project will have a 20-year minimum design life and estimated project start date in Summer 2025; and WHEREAS, the 2021 California Statewide Local Streets and Roads Needs Assessment found that Santa Rosa’s streets and roads are in an “at-risk” condition and this revenue will help us increase the overall quality of our road system and over the next decade will bring our streets and roads into a higher Pavement Conditions Index (PCI) condition; and WHEREAS, the SB 1 project list and overall investment in our local streets and roads infrastructure with a focus on basic maintenance and safety, investing in complete streets infrastructure, and using cutting-edge technology, materials and practices, will have significant positive co-benefits statewide. Locally, the project will result in improved road conditions for all modes of transportation, including vehicles, buses, bicycles, and pedestrians.
