RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2017/279 approving and authorizing naming the bridge on Orwood Road (Road No. 8963) over Indian Slough, as “Delta Haven Bridge”, as recommended by the Public Works Director, Brentwood area. (District III)

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The Contra Costa Public Works Department proposes naming the bridge on Orwood Road over Indian Slough, as “Delta Haven Bridge”, to acknowledge this area of East Contra Costa County for its unique culture and sense of community as it relates to the Delta region. The original bridge was deemed functionally obsolete by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). The Orwood Road Bridge Replacement Project consisted of replacing the existing bridge with a new wider precast concrete voided slab structure with various appurtenances, as well as installing new retaining walls at both bridge approaches.

This project was approved in May of 2015 and the ribbon cutting for the newly constructed bridge took place in June of 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The bridge will not be named.
