Background

Half Moon Bay City Council meeting on September 19th, 2024.

Staff Recommendation: Adopt a resolution of support and authorization for submittal of an application for 2023 Measure A and Measure W Highway Program Funding for the Highway 1 South Corridor Study.

 

The Measure A Transportation Expenditure Plan and Measure W Congestion Relief Plan provide funding for mobility programs in San Mateo County. The San Mateo County Transportation Authority (SMCTA) administers the proceeds of Measure A and Measure W sales tax revenue. While some programs are directly provided funding allocations (like the Local Streets and Transportation category), other programs must hold a competitive selection process known as a “Call for Projects” to fund projects. The Call for Projects for the 2023 round of Measure A/W Highway Program funding was issued on July 5, 2023. On August 25, 2023, the City submitted a grant application for the Half Moon Bay South Highway 1 Corridor Study in a total project amount of $750,000, of which there would be a Page 2 of 2 $75,000 local match ($675,000 in Measure A/W funding).

 

The $750,000 corridor study project focused on identifying improvements along Highway 1, spanning from Miramontes Point Road to Highway 92. The proposed study would investigate current traffic and travel patterns, identify bottlenecks, and evaluate potential solutions to improve traffic flow and safe access for bicyclists and pedestrians. The project would investigate all highway crossings with particular emphasis on the East/West connections at key intersections. The funding request also includes a sufficient budget for robust, equitable engagement in coordination with community partners to identify community-preferred projects and alternatives for the implementation plan.

 

This analysis will compliment the Caltrans Multi-Asset Project.
