DESCRIPTION: The Alameda County Transportation Authority (ACTA) is nearing
completion of the plans for the 1-580/1-680 Flyover project and are going out to bid in Spring of 1998. As
part of this project, ACTA has requested that the City of Dublin provide a name for the proposed roadway
at the end of the new hook ramps that connects Amador Plaza Road and Golden Gate Drive so that the
street name can be included in the plans for installing the street name signs.
The process for naming streets includes sending a list of preferred names to the various agencies that deal
with addresses for safety response and mailing (fire, police, post office, etc.) prior to having the City
Council approving the final name.
Public Wor~ Staff solicited suggestions from City Staffmembers and received about 50 suggestions, with
some duplicates and some names having already been used elsewhere in the Tri-Vailey Area.
The following is a condensed list, in alphabetical order, of the names Staff feels are the most appropriate
for Council's review:
