CITY OF DUBLIN AGENDA STATEMENT City Council Meeting Date: June 14, 1993 SUBJECT: Tri-Valley Transportation Traffic Model Report by: Public Works Director Lee Thompson and Planning Director Laurence Tong EXHIBITS ATTACHED: 1) / Draft Letter to Ms. Millie Greenberg, Chairperson of / Tri-Valley Transportation Council (TVTC) 2) Map indicating location of Highland Road RECOMMENDATION:~~ Approve draft letter to Ms. Greenberg and TVTC and authorize the Mayor to sign for the City of Dublin. FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None DESCRIPTION: Barton-Aschman Associates is the consultant working on the Tri-Valley Transportation Traffic Model. As part of the data input for this model, the City of Dublin has been requested to submit a list of the arterial road system which will be constructed and funded by the City or by Dublin developers. This road system is called the Base Network. Dublin's list included Dougherty Road, Tassajara Road, Fallon Road, and Hacienda Drive from 1-580 to Dublin Boulevard, all as four- lane facilities. Contra Costa County subsequently requested that Dougherty Road, Tassajara Road, and Fallon Road be upgraded to six-lane facilities, that Hacienda Drive be extended from Dublin Boulevard to Gleason Drive, and that Gleason Drive be added to the network. Dublin's Staff has taken the position that if Dublin were to agree to these wider roads and addition, Contra Costa County would have to fund its portion of the improvements. Contra Costa County has since agreed to pay their share of these improvements in Dublin based on Contra Costa county's traffic impacts. The Tri- Valley Transportation Council has requested that letters be sent from both agencies stating that Dublin and Contra Costa County will pay for these road improvements prior to the TVTC showing the road system in the Tri-Valley Transportation Plan. If the abovementioned roads are widened to six lanes and Hacienda Drive is extended from Dublin Boulevard to Gleason Drive, there will be an additional impact on 1-580. The projected level of service on 1-580 is "F" without these road widenings. These improvements could exacerbate the congestion on 1-580 by allowing easier access to the freeway. To mitigate some of the congestion on 1-580, Staff believes that another east-west parallel road is needed. Therefore, Staff is recommending that Highland Road between Tassajara Road and Highway 84 or Vasco Road be improved with as many lanes as necessary to offset the potential traffic impact on 1-580 from Contra Costa County development. Dublin's Planning Department Staff has further identified some concerns with the land use projections in the model. Dublin's Planning Staff is hosting a meeting with Alameda County Staff to try to resolve these concerns. Staff recommends that the City Council approve the draft letter to the Tri-Valley Transportation Council. a: (9293) \june\agsttvtc /P(?O -Iv ::::-::~-~~~-----------::::::-::~--:::~::::::-::::::::::::::-:::::::-:::::::: " . . #' ~ June 11, 1993 Ms. Millie Greenberg, Chairperson Tri-valley Transportation Council c/o Town of Danville 510 La Gonda Way Danville, CA 94526 Dear Madam Chairperson: In response to the Tri-Valley Transportation Council's request, the City of Dublin is sending this letter to confirm the City's position on the road systems to be shown on the Tri-Valley Model for year 2010. The City of Dublin does not object to the designation of Dougherty, Tassajara, and Fallon Roads as six lanes, Hacienda Drive between Gleason Drive and Dublin Blvd. as four lanes, and Gleason Drive as four-lane facilities, as long as Contra Costa county pays its fair share of these projects and that Highland Road is constructed to as many lanes as necessary between Tassajara Road and Highway 84 or Vasco Road to relieve the t~affic demand on 1-580 to offset the potential traffic impact of Contra Costa county development. The City of Dublin's developments will contribute their fair share of the improvement cost of these projects based on the traffic generated by the developments on these roads. Therefore, the City of Dublin is requesting that the following be shown 0." the roadway system of the Tri-Valley model: 1) Tassajara Road as six lanes between Contra Costa County and Dublin Blvd. and as eight lanes between Dublin Blvd. and 1-580. 2) Dougherty Road as six lanes between Contra Costa county and Dublin Blvd. 3) Fallon Road as six lanes between Contra Costa county and Dublin Blvd. 4) Hacienda Drive, between Dublin Blvd. and Gleason Drive as four lanes. 5) Highland Road, between Tassajara Road and Highway 84 or Vasco Road, as many lanes as necessary to offset the potential traffic impact of Contra Costa County development on 1-580. 6) Gleason Road, between Hacienda Drive and Fallon Road, as four lanes. If you have any questions, please feel free to call my office. Sincerely, Peter W.
