STAFF REPORT
ENGINEERING SERVICES DEPARTMENT 1
Date: November 12, 2014 RANCHO
To: Trails Committee C,,UCAMONGA
From: Walt Stickney, Associate Civil Engineer
Subject: PRESENTATION OF THE PROPOSED DEER CREEK CHANNEL
PEDESTRIAN/BICYCLE TRAIL (BASE LINE ROAD TO CHURCH STREET), AND
THE PROPOSED DAY CREEK CHANNEL PEDESTRIAN/BICYCLE TRAIL
(HIGHLAND AVENUE TO BASE LINE ROAD)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is requesting appropriate comment from the Committee on the proposed project.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The City has received two State Transportation Development Act Pedestrian/Bicycle grants.
The first grant is for the construction of the connection of the Pacific Electric Trail with a pedestrian/bicycle
trail along the County's Day Creek Channel maintenance road (day trail) which runs north and south
adjacent to the Day Creek drainage channel. For safety considerations, this grant will also fund
connections from the day trail to public streets at both the north and south ends (at Highland Avenue and
Base Line Road). The inclusion of these two connections will provide an exit from the day trail.
The second grant is to provide connections from public streets to the County's Deer Creek Channel
maintenance road (deer trail). This second grant will also fund trail improvements between connection
points on the deer trail as well as the day trail.
The two grants funding these trail improvements are from the State's Transportation Development Act
Article 3 grants. These grants are administered by SANBAG. The grants are to be used for bicycle and
pedestrian facilities with ADA compliant surfaces. The grants require a match of local funds.
Respectfully submitted,
