Item 6A

Alameda Paratransit Shuttle - Thursday Central Loop Stop Changes

BACKGROUND
Alameda Municipal Code (AMC) Section 2-8.1 states that the Transportation Commission (TC) "shall monitor, via quarterly staff reports, implementation of approved transportation plans and policies." This report provides an update regarding activities during the period of September 2016 through January 2017.

DISCUSSION
The below section lists various work tasks completed or are being worked on by staff relating to Transportation Plans from September 2016 through January 2017 sorted by the relevant transportation plan.

Bicycle Master Plan

Cross Alameda Trail - Appezzato Parkway: City staff submitted a Soils Remediation Plan to the Alameda County Department of Environmental Health for review and approval; conducted special studies for, and drafted, a revised NEPA checklist and received comments from the reviewing agency; continued working with adjacent property owners to finalize encroachment issues; received comments from City permit review; and continued to explore options for additional funding. The TC and the Planning Board approved the preliminary design at a joint meeting in February 2015. The project is funded from a Measure B/VRF Bike/Pedestrian Funds grant application totaling $793,000, Citywide Developer Fees as the local match totaling $198,000, and Federal Transit Administration monies totaling $787,440. Next Steps: Obtain the County's final approval on the Soils Remediation Plan, finalize all encroachment issues, obtain federal NEPA clearance, and put the project out to bid, with construction expected to begin in late 2017 and to be completed in early 2018.
