Engineering and 1017 Middlefield Road Transportation Department Redwood City, CA 94063 Engineering and Transportation Division (650)780-7380 www.redwoodcity.org To: Patrick Heisinger, City Manager From: Tanisha Werner, Engineering and Transportation Department Date: January 29, 2026 Re: Approval to Contract with Sierra Traffic Markings, Inc. for the Phase 1 Intersection Daylighting Project BACKGROUND In response to California’s new daylighting law (Assembly Bill 413) requirements aimed at improving pedestrian safety and visibility at intersecitons, the City is initiating a red curb painting project to establish “no parking” zones. The law mandates a minimum 20-foot no parking zone before both marked and unmarked crosswalks to enhance sightlines between drivers and pedestrians, particularly in high foot- traffic areas. Aligning with the City’s goal of pedestrian safety at intersections, the Phase 1 Intersection Daylighting Project focuses on implementing red curb markings near Rewdood City parks and schools, where pedestrian activity is most frequent. This phase 1 implementation will serve as the first step for a broader, citywide effort to bring all intersections into compliance with the daylighting law over time. Future projects supporting daylighting may expand to residential and commercial cooridors, including the downtown area, based on field assessments, community feedbacks, and available funding. The engineering estimate for the phase 1 including painting red curbs, mobilization, demobilization, and traffic control, is approximately $58,000. The project cost will be covered by General Fund (357) under Daylighting Law program 85139, which has a balance of $292,000 as of December 2025. ANALYSIS Staff advertised the project on the City Webiste for 21 days, and received bids from three (3) qualified contractors. The table below summarizes the results. The lowest quote received was $67,960.00 from Sierra Traffic Markings, Inc. Memo
