Organized by Route Number 12. Background of Names PREFACE The 2006 Named Freeways, Highways, Structures and Other Appurtenances in California publication provides information concerning official and memorial Named Freeways, Highways, Blue Star Memorial Highways, Highway Structures, Safety Roadside Rests, and Plaques on the California Highway Systems. In most cases, the memorial name of a section of highway is not the same as the ‘name’ of that highway. For example, a 10 mile stretch of a Route could have three or more memorial sections named for different individuals Freeway names originate from four different sources: the Legislature, the Highway Commission, local jurisdictions, or historical use. Many freeways acquired their names through local usage and location. Examples of routes named by location are the East Shore and Foothill freeways. A section relating to historical names is included in this document. The California highway and freeway system was first built in Los Angeles area. Freeways in Los Angeles started as spokes radiating outward from the Civic Center. The name of the freeway became the name of the freeway’s destination place name such as the Harbor, Santa Ana, Santa Monica, Pasadena, Hollywood, Ventura, and San Bernardino freeways. Each Legislative session produces a number of Senate and Assembly resolutions proposing to name state highway segments or structures in honor of an individual, group or historical event. Legislative Chaptered bills referenced to as “CH” are Resolution Chapters and are not Statue Chapters. Chaptered bills are summarized in an annual publication available in the CALTRANS Legal Library. House and Senate Resolutions referenced to as “HR” and “SR” are the official document of the corresponding Legislative body for naming roads, bridges, historic places, etc. Unlike a Legislative bill, the Department is not required to comply with Legislative Resolutions. The Resolutions are only printed in the Daily Journal of each respective body; therefore, the actual date of passage must be known for research in the Secretary of State Archives – Bill Room - 1025 “0” Street, Sacramento. Example: SR 138-1949 would be found in the Senate Daily Journal dated July 2, 1949. Any recording of a single Code Resolution must always include the date of action. In the past, no firm Legislative guidelines existed. In the 2004 Legislative session, the Transportation Committee established a set of guidelines for naming highways and structures.. The following guidelines provide criteria for the eligibility of Legislative consideration of a naming resolution for a highway or structure. The guidelines serve the Committee’s efficient consideration of such proposals. Adherence to the guidelines promotes fairness in determining whether a particular facility or segment is to be specially designated. Committee Policy on Resolutions for Naming Highways or Structures Recommended Policy: Regarding resolutions introduced on or after April 26, 2004, the Committee will consider only those resolutions proposing to name or designate state highways or highway structures which meet specific minimum criteria. The criteria shall include the following conditions: a) Any person being honored must have provided extraordinary public service or some exemplary contribution to the public good and have a connection to the community where the highway is located; b) The naming must be done without cost to the state: costs for signs and plaques must be paid by local or private sources and there must be a small additional amount, as determined by Caltrans but not to exceed 10% of the installation cost, donated to cover ongoing maintenance costs; c) The author or co-author of the resolution must represent the district in which the facility is located and the resolution must identify the specific highway segment or structure being named; d) The proposed designation must reflect a community consensus; e) The proposed designation may not supercede an existing designation unless the sponsor can document that a good faith effort has uncovered no opposition to rescinding the prior designation; and f) When a resolution names a highway or structure in honor of an individual, the designee must have been deceased for at least 18 months, except in the instance of elected officials, in which case they must be out of office.

  • **UPDATE** Lane Shift on Westbound Foothill Freeway I-210 for Pavement Rehabilitation Pasadena and La Cañada Flintridge – Be
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE **UPDATE** Lane Shift on Westbound Foothill Freeway I-210 For Pavement Rehabilitation Pasadena and La Cañada Flintridge – Beginning the week of August 21, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will make temporary changes along westbound Foothill Freeway (I-210) from Lincoln Avenue to Foothill Boulevard. Construction crews will restripe and shift lanes towards the median. Both eastbound and westbound inner shoulders will be used as traffic lanes. The eastbound inner shoulder will become a temporary bypass lane for westbound traffic. A concrete barrier will separate the eastbound traffic and the westbound bypass lane for the safety of motorists. Two outer lanes on westbound I-210 will close as crews begin to replace the pavement along the freeway. The bypass lane allows all traffic lanes on westbound I-210 to remain open while work is underway, which will be in effect through spring 2018. The Foothill Freeway is a major thoroughfare, serving commuters between Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. As a result of heavy use, the road needs to be replaced with new pavement. The temporary traffic lane shift and closures are part of a $148.5 million pavement rehabilitation project on I-210. Once the project is completed in 2018, the new surface will provide a smoother drive for motorists, reduce time required for maintenance, and minimize the need for further lane closures. Motorists are advised to “Be Work Zone Alert.” WHAT The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) will close one lane of the eastbound Foothill Freeway (1-210) from Ocean View Boulevard to Lincoln Avenue as part of a pavement rehabilitation project.

    4. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS 4. CULTURAL RESOURCES 4.4.1 INTRODUCTION The following section addresses the proposed Project’s potential to result in significant impacts upon cultural resources, including archaeological, paleontological and historic resources. On September 20, 2013, the South Central Coastal Information Center (SCCIC) and the Vertebrate Paleontology Department at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County were contacted to conduct a records search for cultural resources within the Project Site at the intersection of Lyons Avenue and Railroad Avenue and extends eastward towards the General Plan alignment for Dockweiler Drive towards The Master’s University and northwest towards the intersection of 12th Street and Arch Street and immediate Project vicinity. The analysis presented below is based on the record search results provided from the SCCIC, dated October 2, 2013, and written correspondence from The Vertebrate Paleontology Department at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, dated October 18, 2013. Correspondences from both agencies are included in Appendix E to this Draft EIR. 4.4.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING Description of the Study Area The Project Site is located at the intersection of Lyons Avenue and Railroad Avenue and extends eastward towards the General Plan alignment for Dockweiler Drive towards The Master’s University and northwest towards the intersection of 12th Street and Arch Street. The Project Site also includes the closure of an at- grade crossing at the intersection of Railroad Avenue and 13th Street. The portion of the Project Site that extends eastward towards the General Plan alignment for Dockweiler Drive towards The Master’s University is located in an area of primarily undeveloped land within the city limits of Santa Clarita.

  • Precast Concrete Highway Slabs Expedite Largest Project of This Type in North America on I‐ 210 in California
    Barbara Bogo FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Oldcastle Precast MARCH 2017 (888) 965‐3227 [email protected] Precast Concrete Highway Slabs Expedite Largest Project of this Type in North America on I‐ 210 in California PASADENA, Calif. (MARCH 2017) – Precast concrete highway pavement slabs are increasing in popularity for use in rapid highway construction. This is, in part, the result of many state departments of transportation recognizing the efficiency of the precast slab method and selecting it for use on an increasing number of state projects. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has specified precast concrete pavement slabs for one of the largest projects of this type in North America, the Pavement and Slab Replacement Project on the Foothill Freeway (I‐ 210). This transportation project, approximately 12 miles north of Los Angeles, begins at the Dunsmore Avenue undercrossing in La Crescenta‐Montrose and extends to the North Los Robles Avenue overcrossing in Pasadena. Flatiron West of Chino Hills, California, has appointed Oldcastle Precast of Fontana, California to supply several thousand precast highway pavement slabs for this $148 million project. As a national precaster who has embraced this technology, Oldcastle Precast, a leading provider of engineered building product solutions for North American infrastructure projects, received the contract to manufacture 6,500 precast concrete pavement slabs. Each slab measures 12.5‐foot ‐wide by 11.33‐foot‐ long by 12‐inch‐thick, for the 9.7‐mile segment of I‐210, and will be used to replace sections, that have undergone erosion and deterioration due to years of exposure to heavy traffic. Site installation of the pavement slabs is occurring as an overnight process.

  • Public Health Service Hospital Final Supplemental
    Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement Public Health Service Hospital, The Presidio of San Francisco, CA This document provides new analysis, information, and changes made in response to public comments on the Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) for the Public Health Service Hospital (PHSH), which was circulated and filed in August 2004. This document, together with the accompanying Response to Comments, will be filed as the Final SEIS. The Final SEIS is a supplement to and tiers from the 2002 Final EIS for the Presidio Trust Management Plan (PTMP), the Presidio Trust’s comprehensive land use plan and policy framework for Area B of the Presidio. The PTMP evaluated in the 2002 Final EIS included planning guidelines for the PHSH district. LEAD AGENCY The Presidio Trust (Trust), a federal corporation and executive agency created by Congress in 1996, is the lead agency for the proposed action under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The Trust maintains jurisdiction over the interior 80 percent of the Presidio of San Francisco (Area B), while the National Park Service has jurisdiction over the coastal areas of the former army post (Area A). The Trust must preserve and enhance the Presidio and also become financially self-sufficient by the year 2013. ABSTRACT The Trust is proposing to rehabilitate and reuse buildings within the PHSH district of the Presidio, to re-introduce residential uses to the district, and to undertake related site improvements. These actions represent the “proposed action” evaluated in this Final SEIS. The Final SEIS evaluates five alternatives, including a publicly requested “no action” alternative and the PTMP baseline alternative.
