RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE improvement plans for the installation of a crash cushion at Taylor Boulevard and Pleasant Hill Road, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Lafayette area.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The project is estimated to cost $67,849.00 and will be funded by 100% Local Road Funds.

BACKGROUND:

The existing sand-filled crash cushion located at the northbound split of Taylor Boulevard and Pleasant Hill Road in the unincorporated Lafayette was damaged. This project would remove the existing sand-filled crash cushion and replace it with a Smart Cushion Innovations® (SCI) Smart Cushion (Model SCI100GM).

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

This crash cushion installation project will not have design immunity.
