Build Alternative Clause Samples
Build Alternative. The Build Alternative would construct HOV/express lanes on northbound and southbound I-680 from SR 84 to north of Alcosta Boulevard, a distance of approximately 9 miles. The Build Alternative is anticipated to be constructed in two phases and represents the long-term vision for buildout of the HOV/express lane facility on I-680 from SR 84 to Alcosta Boulevard. The phases are envisioned as follows: Phase 1 would construct the southbound HOV/express lane and all project-related improvements in the median (both northbound and southbound). In the south, the Phase 1 HOV/express lane would connect with a future HOV/express lane to the south that will be constructed as part of another project (EA 04-29763). The future lane (EA 04-29763) will extend from south of SR 84 to 0.8 mile north of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Road in Sunol and will open to traffic before Phase 1. In the north, the Phase 1 HOV/express lane would connect with the existing HOV/express lane that begins north of Alcosta Boulevard in San ▇▇▇▇▇. On completion of Phase 1, the southbound I-680 express lane would extend from Rudgear Road in Walnut Creek to SR 237 in Milpitas. Phase 2 would construct the northbound HOV/express lane. In the south, the Phase 2 HOV/express lane would connect with an HOV/express lane to the south that is being constructed as part of another project (EA 04-4G050) and will open to traffic before Phase 2. In the north, the Phase 2 HOV/express lane would connect with the existing HOV/express lane that begins north of Alcosta Boulevard in San ▇▇▇▇▇. On completion of Phase 2, the northbound I-680 express lane would extend from SR 262 in Fremont to Livorna Road in Alamo. At the current time, funding for the Full Build Alternative has yet to be identified. An Environmental Revalidation and Supplemental Project Report for the NEPA documentation will be required prior to proceeding with the Full Build Alternative. Funding for Phase 1 of the project is reasonably available. Phase 1 of the project does have independent utility and logical termini as identified in the Environmental Document and as stated therein may proceed to construction independent of the Full Build Alternative.
