Council to consider contract for traffic-easing project Wednesday
The City Council on Wednesday, June 16 will consider awarding a roughly $297,500 contract to Kormx, Inc. for the Pacific Park Drive and Aliso Creek Road Intersection Project.
The Pacific Park Drive and Aliso Creek Road Intersection Widening Project is part of the city’s ongoing efforts to maintain its roadway system at a high level of service and improve traffic flow through this busy intersection. The traffic-easing project includes adding right-turn lanes from eastbound Pacific Park onto Aliso Creek Road, and northbound Aliso Creek Road onto Pacific Park Drive.
The total project, which is well under budget, is expected to cost $335,000, and will be paid for from Measure M competitive funds.
The work will consist of removing existing pavement, installing new asphalt pavement, replacing sidewalk, roadway striping and traffic signal improvements. During construction, motorists may experience short delays, as eastbound Pacific Park Drive and northbound Aliso Creek Road will be reduced to two lanes in these directions.
Traffic control signs will detour motorists through and around the construction zone. Pedestrian traffic will also be re-routed at this intersection. Construction is expected to take place from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day, but the sidewalk and lane closures will be permanent during the course of the project.
Entrances to the businesses next to the project will remain open from Pacific Park Drive, but alternate exits to Aliso Creek Road will be used.
Construction is expected to begin on July 5 and be completed in September.
More details will follow as the start date nears. For more information, contact the Aliso Viejo Public Works Department at 949-425-2530 or pworks@cityofalisoviejo.com.
The City Council meets at 7:00 p.m. in Council Chambers at City Hall, 12 Journey. The full agenda is available at www.cityofalisoviejo.com.
