10 Year Street Maintenance Plan
The City's Annual Street Maintenance is funded from Gas Tax
received from the State of California. Approximately $400,000 to
$450,000 is currently received annually. It is hoped that the
City will receive more in future years. The current
ten year list for street maintenance can be downloaded here.
Theatre Drive Realignment
The City has Federal Stimulus Funds to realign Theatre Drive at
its connection to Highway 46 West. It will be relocated
approximately 900 feet to the west. The project is out to bid
with the bid opening schedule for August 19, 2010. Work is
expected to begin in the Fall of 2010 and be completed by Fall
2011. Click here

46 East
The City, in partnership with Caltrans and the San Luis Obispo
Council of Governments (SLOCOG), has a project to improve
operations at the intersection of Highway 101 and 46 East. The
proposed improvements are:
a) modify the 13th Street overcrossing over State Highway 101 by
reconstructing the curb returns at Riverside and the concrete
barriers on both sides of the overcrossing;
b) relocate the 16th Street off-ramp from Highway 101 to 17th
Street;
c) install a new southbound on-ramp to Highway 101 at 17th
Street;
d) add a second lane to the existing southbound State Route 101
entrance ramp at the State Route 101/46 East interchange;
e) re-stripe State Route 101/46 East traveled way to include a
second left turn lane from westbound 46 onto the southbound 101
ramp;
f) add a southbound auxiliary lane between Highway 46 and the
new on/off-ramps at 17th Street;
g) install a meter at the Spring Street/First Street southbound
on-ramp to Highway 101.
Funding for the project is primarily from a State grant which
was approved in July 2010. The environmental document was
approved in May 2010. The City hopes to award a contract by the
end of 2010, but the Notice to Proceed will be delayed to early
Fall 2011 as requested by Caltrans. Caltrans has a project to
install a concrete median barrier on Highway 101 from 24th
Street to the Niblick Bridge and they do not want the City's
contractor to be working at this location while they are
working.
Highway 101 / 46 West Environmental Documents - Approved
The environmental documents were approved by Caltrans on
December 9, 2009.
