Liu, Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Updates on Various Projects/Programs RECOMMENDATION: Receive and File BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: A. Area 4 Residential, Collector and Arterial Paving Improvement Project The contractor has since completed the work within the Area 4 residential area and has started preliminary work on the arterial streets. Main arterial construction is now scheduled for mid-September due to delays associated with the Caltrans rider permit process and material availability. Project completion is anticipated in early October 2025. B. CDBG Area 5 Residential ADA Curb Ramp Improvement Project The CDBG Area 5 Project has been completed, with six (6) new ADA-compliant curb ramps constructed in the Golden Springs Elementary School neighborhood. A Notice of Completion has been filed. C. SR-57/60 Confluence Improvements Project Construction for the SR-57/60 Interchange Improvements is progressing. As part of the ongoing project, the existing eastbound SR-60 Grand Avenue off-ramp was permanently closed, and the newly constructed off-ramp opened on Tuesday, August 26th. Please see the attached construction update provided by SGVCOG. This milestone moves the Project one step closer to a brand-new Grand Avenue bridge and a fully reconfigured on- and off-ramp system designed to enhance mobility, safety, and access for drivers and the local community. The demolition work on the Grand Avenue bridge will begin soon. This work will require overnight closure of Grand Avenue, a full closure of both eastbound and westbound lanes on SR-60, and multiple on- and off-ramp closures on the evening of September 27th.
