Report
BACKGROUND
The Department of Public Works (DPW) is preparing the design for the 2027 Annual Street Maintenance and Rehabilitation Bond Project (Attachment 1) and the Central Santa Clara Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvement Project (Attachment 2).
2027 Annual Street Maintenance and Rehabilitation Bond Project: This project provides maintenance and rehabilitation treatments to maximize pavement life for various streets in the City as part of the Measure I Public Facilities and Infrastructure Bond. The project applies pavement treatments ranging from slurry seal, asphalt overlay, and full depth replacement. Staff coordinates with the BPAC to review if the project streets have the potential for adding bicycle facilities as identified in the Santa Clara Bicycle Plan. It is important to note that if a street requires removal of parking or travel lanes due to limited right-of-way widths, the recommendations in the Bicycle Plan cannot be implemented without extensive public outreach, traffic analyses, and study.
At the June 2026 BPAC meeting, staff presented the list of streets to be included in this project. BPAC voted to approve the proposed bicycle facilities for the streets listed below:
Calabazas Boulevard (NB/SB) from Pomeroy Avenue to El Camino Real (Class II)
Cronin Drive from Stevens Creek Boulevard to McKinley Drive (Class III)
Cronin Drive from McKinley Drive to Mauricia Avenue (Class II)
Cronin Drive from Mauricia Avenue to Pruneridge Avenue (Class IIB)
Flora Vista Avenue from Benton Street to Granada Avenue (Class III)
Flora Vista Avenue from Granada Avenue to El Camino Real (Class II)
Kifer Road from Uranium Drive to Oakmead Village Drive (Class II)
