L w FAIRVIEw BRIDGE REPLACEMENT AND STREET IMPROVEMENTS INITIAL STUDY/MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION <br />J' (9TH STREET TO 16TH STREET) PROJECT <br />MAY 2020 <br />SANTA ANAL CALIFORNIA <br />16th Street. Currently, the Fairview Street bridge is utilized by bicyclists and pedestrians to cross <br />over the Santa Ana River, but there are no existing sidewalks or bikeways on the bridge. As part of <br />the proposed Project, the Fairview Street bridge would be replaced with a new six -lane bridge (three <br />lanes in each direction), including a complete bridge deck with barrier rails, sidewalks, bicycle lanes, <br />a raised median, and lighting. These features would improve the safety of the area for both <br />motorized and nonmotorized travel. The improved bridge may attract additional pedestrians and <br />bicyclists due to added sidewalks and bikeways, which could facilitate access to the park by <br />nonmotorized travel; however the Project does not include recreational facilities or require the <br />construction or expansion of recreational facilities because it involves bridge replacement, roadway <br />widening, and restriping. Impacts would be less than significant, and no mitigation is required. <br />3_92 R:\WKE1702\ISMND\Final ISMND\Fairview Street Bridge Final ISMND.docx (05/26/20) <br />
