Tri-Valley Transportation Council │ 2020 Nexus Fee Update Study August 2021 │ Final 61 C-11G IRON HORSE TRAIL BICYCLE/PEDESTRIAN OVERCROSSING – TOWN OF DANVILLE TVTC Project Sponsor: Danville/CCC/CCTA Project Description: The Iron Horse Trail (IHT) is an 18-mile regional non-motorized trail that runs north/south through the San Ramon Valley providing critical access to adjacent land uses. The construction of overcrossings at key locations will develop attractive travel alternatives for congestion relief for commute trips as well as better facilities for school, shopping, and recreations trips. For the scope of this project, the proposed overcrossing location is Bollinger Canyon Road. At this location, the overcrossing will provide substantial benefits including: 1. Improve safety by eliminating conflicts between pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists; 2. Improve motor vehicle circulation by removing the at-grade crossings; 3. Reduce and eliminate unsafe crossing maneuvers by pedestrians and bicyclists; 4. Enhance safety by providing an environment that encourages walking and bicycling along the Iron Horse Regional Trail; and 5. Increase trail usage by improving the connectivity at the Bollinger Canyon Road and Crow Canyon Road crossings. Status: PSR (Feasibility Study) completed. Project will require coordination, permitting, and agreements with Contra Costa County. East Bay Regional Parks Direct and various utilities. Cost and Funding Sources Cost (Millions) $19.78 Funding (Millions) $0.00 Total Funding (Millions) $0.00 Total Funding Shortfall (Millions) $19.78 C-11H IRON HORSE TRAIL SYSTEM-WIDE IMPROVEMENTS TVTC Project Sponsor: Contra Costa County, Town of Danville, City of San Ramon, Alameda County, City of Dublin, City of Livermore, and City of Pleasanton Project Description: As the primary regional multi-modal corridor between Contra Costa and Alameda County, the Iron Horse Trail is the spine for active modes of travel in the East Bay. The proposed project for the Iron Horse Trail includes safety, operational, and capacity improvements within the TVTC boundary from Alamo to Livermore. The proposed project and associated cost estimate includes safety improvements at roadway crossings, a proposed parallel path to separate users according to speed, and a buffer between users traveling at high or low speed. The improvements would include features such as passive detection at road crossings, actuated flashers or warning signals at roadway crossings, high visibility markings, minor grading, construction of a new 10 foot wide parallel asphalt path with shoulders, and a buffer between high and low speed corridors which may include vegetation or fencing to maintain safe separation. Other safety improvements may be necessary to fit site conditions and as determined through additional study. Separated grade crossings or bridges that have already been identified as critical for improved vehicle traffic flow at current at grade crossings and to improve safety for trail users are listed as separate projects
