The park is located entirely within the City of Santa Ana, along the proposed <br />alignment of the bikeway. The Project will renovate the existing Friendship Park at the cul-de-sac of W. <br />Myrtle Street (west end) with new recreational features and create a trail with landscape and irrigation <br />from W. Monta Vista Avenue to First Street, mainly adjacent to the west side of the Santa Ana Gardens <br />Channel (F02) and install security lighting along the trail and Friendship Park. In addition, the Project will <br />install an iron fence trellis, gates, and swing gates for the entrance to the trail. <br />The current total SAG construction cost estimate is $2,310,000. The Class I Bikeway portion of the SAG <br />Project was awarded a federal grant of $1,308,572 from the Bicycle Corridor Improvement Program <br />(BCIP). BCIP grant funds were matched with $201,428 of County funds. However, these funds cannot be <br />used for park renovation and landscaping components.
