Open public hearing
Receive staff presentation and public comment
Question staff and the public
Close public hearing and deliberate
Waive reading and introduce ordinance
The only direct costs to the City are administrative costs
for processing the ordinance change. These areas are
already No Parking zones. LAVTA would install bus stop
signs.
DESCRIPTION: Staff has received a request from the Livermore Amador
Valley Transit Authority to establish bus stops that would benefit the residents of
Cross Creek and Cottonwood Apartments, Dublin Meadows, and other developments near
the intersection of Amador Valley Boulevard and Dougherty Road. At the present
time, there are no convenient bus stop locations serving these residents.
It is proposed to locate a westbound stop on the north side of Amador Valley
Boulevard just west of Wildwood Road. There is sufficient room at this location for
the bus to stop without obstructing the progress of other traffic.
The eastbound (to southbound) stop is proposed to be placed on the south side of
Amador Valley Boulevard just east of Cross Creek Circle. This location is actually
in a travel lane. It is proposed to relocate the southbound bus stop to Dougherty
Road once the street has been widened to its ultimate width (see Exhibit 2). The
widening of Dougherty Road at this location is not in the adopted Five-Year Capital
Improvement Program. The need for this project would probably not occur until such
time as there is significant development in the Dougherty Valley or on the Camp
Parks property.
These stops would be utilized by the Number 2 "Wheels" route which provides access
to the Senior Center, Shannon Center, Stoneridge Mall, and downtown areas in both
Dublin and Pleasanton. Transfer points for other "Wheels" lines and the BART bus
are available on Route 2.
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing, deliberate, waive
the reading and introduce the ordinance establishing these bus stops on Amador
Valley Boulevard. A separate ordinance relocating the eastbound stop will be
proposed at a later date when Dougherty Road is widened.
