DESCRIPTION:
This project provides for installation of City Entrance Signs at five
locations: Dougherty Road at Dublin Boulevard, Dougherty Road at the
northerly City Limit, Village Parkway at Kimball Avenue, San Ramon Road at
Dublin Boulevard, and San Ramon Road at Alcosta Boulevard. The City Council
approved the design for the signs at the April 9th meeting. Initially, it
was hoped to landscape around the sign at the 1-580/Dougherty Road location.
As there is no nearby water connection, this landscaping will be postponed
until the Dougherty Road widening project is constructed.
Also included in this project are the signs for the Dublin Swim Center,
Dublin Sports Grounds, and Mape Park. A project to construct these signs was
bid in February; however, the bids received were considerably higher than the
estimated cost for the work. Singer and Hodges has reduced the scale of
these signs in an effort to obtain lower prices, and the landscaping
improvements associated with the signs will not be included at this time.
