Background

The Calaveras Council of Governments (CCOG) and County of Calaveras applied for and received a State transportation planning grant for FY 2017/18, made possible through Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), to complete a Complete Streets Capital Infrastructure Plan for Valley Springs. The Plan will provide for the community level planning needed to develop conceptual complete streets transportation improvements that build upon operational investments on SR 26 and the SR 12/26 intersection, incorporates community aesthetic, and provides safe travel options for residents and students to schools and community centers. The project is a collaborative partnership of the School, Caltrans, CHP, CCOG, County, and community. The Plan will explore multi-modal improvements within the Historic Town including streets serving as School pick up and drop off locations. The project includes an assessment of existing conditions, comprehensive public participation and outreach, conceptual design alternatives, development of a Complete Streets Plan and implementation and financial plan.

A proposal review panel made up of CCOG, County, and Caltrans Staff evaluated the proposals in terms of the technical criteria listed in the RFP.

Based on this review, GHD Inc. was the top ranked proposal and was recommended for contract award. GHD Inc. is based out of Roseville, California, and is a multi-disciplinary consulting firm providing a range of transportation engineering and planning services.  GHD Inc. will be partnering with Design Workshop to provide public outreach and design services.
