Caltrans & Partners Coastal Cleanup June 25 in Alameda
State of California • Department of Transportation
NEWS RELEASE
For Immediate Release June 22, 2016
Caltrans “Protect Every Drop” Campaign Funds Series of Shoreline
Cleanups Throughout East Bay
Partnership Celebrated with June 25 Community Volunteer Event
WHAT: Volunteers from Caltrans will join the East Bay Regional Park District on Saturday, June 25 to celebrate the launch of a comprehensive environmental education and shoreline cleanup program extending into spring 2017. In an effort to help protect local marine habitats and prevent stormwater pollution, approximately 50 Caltrans and local community volunteers will spend the morning removing trash and debris at Crab Cove and Encinal Beach alongside leadership from the East Bay Regional Park District. This program was made possible through a unique partnership with CBS EcoMedia, which generates financial support for community programs through the power of advertising.
WHO: Myeast McCauley – Chief Public Information Officer, Caltrans District 4
Hardeep Takhar – Caltrans District 4 Stormwater Coordinator
Bill Yarborough – Regional Parks Foundation Board Chair
Dave Zuckermann – East Bay Regional Park District Interpretive and Recreation Services Manager
Michael Charnofsky – Naturalist, Operations, East Bay Regional Park District
WHEN: Saturday, June 25 | 9:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
• 9:30 a.m. – Welcoming remarks at Crab Cove Visitor Center
• 10 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. – Volunteer trash pickup along the shoreline at Crab Cove & Encinal Beach
WHERE: Crab Cove Visitor Center – 1252 McKay Ave, Alameda, CA 94501
Parking available at Crab Cove Visitor Center
WHY: With Caltrans’ support, the East Bay Regional Park District will fund a series of coastal cleanup programs and events throughout the district, including environmental education programs for local students in the 2016-17 school year. Funding also supports transportation and busing for low-income schools to travel to educational programs along the shoreline, which is often an obstacle to out-of-school field trips.
This initiative is part of Caltrans’ Protect Every Drop campaign, which is a stormwater public education and outreach campaign to educate Californians about the sources and pathways of stormwater pollution, and to encourage behavior to reduce pollutants in order to improve water quality in our streams, rivers, lakes and coastal waters.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Open House for Rio Vista Bridge Preservation
Community Feedback Sought on Two Projects
RIO VISTA — The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is hosting a community meeting on Wednesday, June 22 to share information about two Rio Vista Bridge preservation projects and how they will affect motorists and community members.
The meeting is scheduled from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Rio Vista City Hall, One Main Street, and will include a brief Power Point presentation. Caltrans staff will be on hand to answer questions and discuss the two proposed projects in which construction is expected to cover a six-year period.
The first project will maintain and preserve the steel structural members of the Rio Vista Bridge (No. 23-0024) on State Highway 12 over the Sacramento River by cleaning and painting all steel surfaces.
The existing coating system on the Rio Vista Bridge is deteriorating in different locations. There are rust spots along the truss, tower, and floor system members, and rusting around many of the truss gusset plate nuts and bolts. The $37 million painting project is nearing the end of the environmental phase, and the design team is beginning to assemble the construction plans and specifications. Construction is scheduled from fall 2017 to spring 2022.
Funding in the amount of $19.2 million is being proposed in the next funding cycle for the second project which proposes to maintain the operation and structural integrity of the drawbridge by replacing the mechanical and electrical systems. This project also proposes to replace two existing elevators and installing a 4 inch sewer line.
The existing electrical and mechanical systems are at the end of their useful service life and need to be replaced to maintain the operation of this movable bridge for both roadway and navigational traffic. The two elevators are out of service and the sewer line will allow plumbed facilities on the bridge. Construction is proposed from 2022 to 2023.
Space is very limited at the meeting location and anyone requiring special accommodations to attend the public open house can contact the Caltrans District 3 Public Information Office at (530) 741-5474.

State Route 1-Sonoma Coast-Expect Delays week of Jun 13

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
State Route 1 in Sonoma County near Gleason Beach
Construction for One-Way Traffic Control Begins Week of June 13
SONOMA COUNTY – Due to erosion caused by winter storms, Caltrans is beginning an emergency project to install traffic signals near Gleason Beach. Work is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 13 with the installation of signs; traffic signals are scheduled to be installed and activated on Thursday, June 16.
When installation is complete, one-way control will be in place 24 hours per day. During high traffic periods or holidays, Caltrans may also use flaggers to keep traffic moving efficiently.
• The contractor plans to begin work on June 13. Prior to activation of the traffic signals, motorists should expect to find one-way reversible traffic control and construction Monday through Thursday, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Once the traffic signals are installed, one-way reversible traffic control will continue until further notice.
o Motorists should expect brief delays of approximately five to ten minutes and allow additional time to reach their destination.
Safety is the Department of Transportation’s highest priority, and this lane reduction is necessary due to erosion. Plans are being developed for a future micro-realignment project that will shift the highway a few feet to the east.
The State Route 1 Gleason Beach Realignment Project will completely realign the highway to the east. However, this major project is in the final environmental document phase, has yet to be designed, and will not go into construction until 2019. Until that time, Caltrans will continue to monitor the highway and maintain safety for travelers.
If work is delayed due to weather conditions, it will be rescheduled. Please drive cautiously through the construction zone, leave a safe traveling distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you, and Slow for the Cone Zone.

District: 4 - Oakland
Contact: Allyn Amsk
Phone: (510) 286-5445
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
State Route 1 in Sonoma County near Gleason Beach
Construction for One-Way Traffic Control Begins Week of June 13
SONOMA COUNTY – Due to erosion caused by winter storms, Caltrans is beginning an emergency project to install traffic signals near Gleason Beach. Work is scheduled to begin on Monday, June 13 with the installation of signs; concrete barriers and traffic signals are scheduled to be installed on Wednesday, June 15.
When installation is complete, one-way control will be in place 24 hours per day.
During high traffic periods or holidays, Caltrans may also use flaggers to keep traffic moving efficiently.
• The contractor plans to begin work on June 13. Prior to activation of the traffic signals, motorists should expect to find one-way reversible traffic control and construction Monday through Wednesday, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
• Once the traffic signals are installed, one-way reversible traffic control will continue until further notice.
o Motorists should expect brief delays of approximately five to ten minutes and allow additional time to reach their destination.
Safety is the Department of Transportation’s highest priority, and this lane reduction is necessary due to erosion. Plans are being developed for a future micro-realignment project that will shift the highway a few feet to the east.
The State Route 1 Gleason Beach Realignment Project will completely realign the highway to the east. However, this major project is in the final environmental document phase, has yet to be designed, and will not go into construction until 2019. Until that time, Caltrans will continue to monitor the highway and maintain safety for travelers.
If work is delayed due to weather conditions, it will be rescheduled. Please drive cautiously through the construction zone, leave a safe traveling distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead of you, and Slow for the Cone Zone.
