Davis, P.E. REFERENCES: <br />Public Works Director <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />During a recent rezoning hearing, the Board requested staff to investigate <br />traffic operational improvements along Kings Highway to serve 23rd Street <br />and 24th Street (Rivera Estates Subdivision). Residents in the area <br />requested a northbound left turn lane. The recent five laning of Kings <br />Highway caused a transition to two lanes in this area. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />Staff has reviewed the .area. At the present time, the County has a 50' <br />wide right-of-way along the Rivera Estates frontage. For a 3 -lane roadway <br />(36' wide), a minimum 90' right-of-way is recommended. This would provide <br />for two 8' wide shoulders and two 19' wide drainage swales on each side of <br />the roadway. At least 20' of additional right-of-way would be require <br />along each side of the roadway. <br />The cost of the right-of-way is estimated at $1/sf. For the 40 ft. x 1300 <br />lf. area needed for right-of-way south of Walker Ave. (26th St) , a cost of <br />$52,000 is estimated. The road improvements are estimated to cost $40,000, <br />for a total cost of $92,000. This would provide a three lane roadway from <br />Walker Ave. to the existing five lane section. No buildings are within the <br />right-of-aaY required. <br />OCT 27 1987 69 E9(� <br />Ri)GK � Ft4uC S"`�iar <br />
