The project will make safety and operational improvements to local streets and/or Highway 246 in Solvang including intersection improvements, pedestrian crossings, bicycle lanes, wider bridges and traffic signal synchronization.
Project 1 – The South Alisal Road Pavement Reconstruction Project will rehabilitate and widen South Alisal Road from the Santa Ynez River (Alisal Bridge) to the southerly City limits. The work will primarily consist of reconstruction of the existing pavement, and widening the road to meet current roadway standards and address multimodal safety issues. The Project will include bicycle safety features such as bicycle sharrows. The final component of the Project includes upsizing an existing drainage to increase the flow and debris carrying capacity of the culvert and reduce the incidence of flooding of the roadway.
The remaining $2.9 million balance for the Solvang Circulation Improvements project will be available for future projects that meet the investment plan scope.
