Marina Mayor Bruce Delgado said he’s excited to see a safer way for bikes and pedestrians to get to the coastline, along with motorists who will be able to navigate through roundabouts that don’t stop traffic at lights so people can get to where they’re going safer with more lanes and good traffic flow. “It’s not just good for Marina,” said Delgado, but for anyone who uses Imjin Parkway to get from the Salinas area to the Monterey Peninsula. The Imjin Parkway Widening and Roundabout Project will affect 1.7 miles of roadway and will include constructing four roundabouts, increase it to four lanes, and will be the first regional Measure X project to be built. The project’s $40.5 million in funding sources include $2 million from the city of Marina generated from development impact fees, $18.25 million from Transportation Agency for Monterey County’s Measure X and $20.25 million from California’s SB1 local partnership program. Delgado said that it would have been very difficult for the city of Marina to fund the project by itself, but once Monterey County became a self-help county and with TAMC’s passage of Measure X, it enabled it to go to the front of the line for state SB1 funding. About 25 of the 58 counties in California are self-help. Each county delivers voter-approved (by super-majority) transportation sales tax measures that fund transit, highway, freight, bicycle, pedestrian and other transportation programs. Measure X was the November 2016 ballot measure that was approved by 67.7% of Monterey County voters for the Transportation Agency for Monterey County’s Transportation Safety and Investment Plan. The measure is anticipated to generate an estimated $20 million annually for a total of $600 million over 30 years through a retail transactions and use tax of a three-eighths’ of one percent or 3/8% to fund transportation safety and mobility projects in Monterey County. California’s Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, SB1, created the Local Partnership Program and continuously appropriates $200 million annually from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account to local and regional transportation agencies that have sought and received voter approval of taxes or that have imposed fees, which taxes or fees are dedicated solely for transportation improvements. According to the Imjin Parkway Widening and Roundabout Project website, the project is a road safety and widening construction project along a segment of an important connector route between the Monterey Peninsula and the greater Salinas Valley. The segment is located on the former Fort Ord military base (between the cities of Marina and Seaside on the Monterey Peninsula) between Highway 1 and Reservation Road. About 30,000 to 32,000 motorists use Imjin Parkway daily, said Delgado. Construction will complete widening of Imjin Parkway by adding a lane in each direction between Imjin Road (near California Avenue) and Reservation Road; replacing four signalized intersections with roundabouts near existing neighborhood areas; creating pedestrian crossings at intersections for safer access to and from the surrounding neighborhoods and educational areas; adding bike lanes along each side of the roadway for the length of the roadway extension; and installing lighting and landscaping. A kick-off event is planned for the last week in June with construction beginning this summer and will be split up into different phases to minimize construction impacts along the roadway as well as increase efficiencies to complete the project as quickly as possible. Phase 1 will see work on the north side of the roadway, westbound toward Highway 1. Work will include demolishing the existing roadway, grading, drainage, utilities, irrigation and lighting, retaining and sound walls, roadway paving and temporary striping, landscaping and north side of roadway roundabout construction at Preston Avenue, Abrams Road, Marina Heights and Imjin roads. Phase 2 will see work on the south side of the roadway, eastbound toward Reservation Road. Work will include demolishing the existing roadway, grading, drainage, utilities, irrigation and lighting, paving and temporary striping, landscaping, south side of roadway roundabout construction at Imjin Road, Marina Heights Road, Abrams Road and Preston Avenue. Phase 3 will be miscellaneous roadwork including demolishing temporary paving, roadway paving and temporary striping, drainage utilities and lighting, and grading. Phase 4 will be final paving (top lift) and striping. Driveway access will be maintained throughout construction which is projected to wrap-up in 2025.
