OV Sant <br />Ana Boulevard . • ' Separation ProRect <br />In June 2024, the City of Santa Ana was awarded $25 million in federal funding for the <br />Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation Project, which will facilitate the reconstruction of <br />the current rail crossing at Santa Ana Boulevard, adjacent to the Santa Ana Regional <br />Transportation Center. The project will create a new multimodal grade -separated <br />underpass, including reduction of the roadway from six to four lanes, on -street protected <br />bikeways and sidewalks, and a pedestrian overcrossing parallel to the rail line. The <br />project will improve traffic operations, boost emergency response times, and alleviate <br />traffic congestion along Santa Ana Boulevard. <br />SANTA ANA GRADE SEPARATION PROJECT <br />Project Lead: City of Santa Ana <br />■ SCOPE <br />The Santa Ana Grade Separation Project <br />( Project) proposes to construct a new <br />six -lane underpass to replace the <br />existing at -grade crossing at the <br />Southern California Regional Rail <br />Authority double tracks on Santa Ana <br />Boulevard adjacent to the Santa Ana <br />Regional Transportation Center (SARTC). <br />The Project limits extend from the 1-5 <br />southbound ramps in the east to Santiago <br />Street. The Project constructs a pedestrian <br />bridge adjacent to the railroad under- <br />pass to provide connectivity across <br />Santa Ana Boulevard to SARTC. <br />Improvements on Santa Ana Boulevard <br />will include a raised median, side- <br />walks, and spare for a transportation <br />opportunity zone and a pedestrian plaza, <br />The Project will also require the <br />construction of a stormwater pump <br />station, and utility relocations. <br />rROKcruuns <br />I <br />■ COST <br />■ SCHEDULE <br />PS&E <br />$6,700,000 <br />CEGA/NEPA Clearance <br />7/2024 <br />Right of Way <br />$22,614,000 <br />PS&E <br />6/2025 <br />Construction <br />$49,376,000 <br />Right of Way <br />9/2025 <br />Construction Award <br />1/2025 <br />Total <br />$80,720,000 <br />Construction Completion <br />1/2029 <br />»Above: Informational flyer for the Santa Ana Boulevard Grade Separation <br />Project. <br />25 <br />
