6.J.- Page 2of5 ANALYSIS The City is requesting that the City Council support applications for grant funding for the following projects, which the Transportation Advisory Committee recommended at their September 9, 2020 meeting: • Roosevelt Avenue Pilot Traffic Calming Implementation — The $895k project includes the pilot installation of traffic calming measures identified in the Roosevelt Avenue Traffic Calming Plan and its evaluation. The City Council approved the Plan at its August 24, 2020 meeting. Prior to putting the project out to bid for construction, the City Council will have the opportunity to approve the final design. The grant request is for $625k with a local match of $270k. • EI Camino Real Corridor Safety Improvements—The $400k project includes the design of bicycle and pedestrian improvements along EI Camino Real between Brewster Avenue and the southern city limit. This work builds on the approved EI Camino Real Corridor Plan (approved by City Council on December 4, 2017), the Bike & Ped Safety Improvement Study: EI Camino Real between Maple and Charter Streets (received by the City Council on February 25, 2019), and Caltrans' 2018 Road Safety Audit. The City Council will have the opportunity to review and approve the scope of work when the design contract is awarded. The grant request is for $300k with a local match of $100k. Each of these projects have been in development for a number of years, have gone through extensive community planning processes, and are in need of additional funding for a future phase of work. In addition, they support programs and policies in the Circulation Element of the General Plan and advance the City's vision from RWCmoves to "promote the best travel experience possible for everyone in Redwood City by creating and maintaining a safe, multimodal, and accessible transportation network." FISCAL IMPACT The local match for the grant projects will be covered by the Gas Tax Fund as outlined in Table 1 below.
