BACKGROUND
Consider Proposed Alignment for the Future
Extensions of the Route 23 and Route 118 Freeways
A number of years ago the City agreed to work with Caltrans
on the preparation of a preliminary design for the future
extension of Route 23 north of the freeway connector, and the
future extension of the Route 118 freeway west of Princeton
Avenue. Pursuant to that informal agreement, the City
retained a consultant to prepare the aerial topographic
mapping required to prepare a design for these future
projects, and Caltrans agreed to prepare the preliminary
design. The purpose of these efforts was to locate and
determine the right -of -way requirements for these possible
future transportation corridor
DISCUSSION
Caltrans has completed the preliminary design for these
projects. A copy of the plans has been placed on the walls
of the City Council Conference Room. Caltrans has requested
that the City provide any input at our earliest convenience.
Some of the elements of +phi- desi,:in are summarized as
follows:
• Both the northerly extension of Route 23 and the westerly
extension of Route 118 would be located between the
existing freeway connector bridges"
An interchange is shown dt Walnut Canyon Road to depict
the right -of -way take requirements. A decision regarding
the construction of ramps at. this location has not been
made. The City's current (irculation Element does not
contemplate ramps at this I-o -ation
