FM <br />B. Widening and improvement of 1 -5 between the I- 5/Route 55 and I- 5/Route 22 .. <br />interchanges. (Caltram is the Lead Agency.) <br />C. Widening and improvement of Westminster Avenue in the City of Santa Ana. <br />(City of Santa Ana is the Lead Agency.) <br />D. Establishment of a redevelopment project area encompassing the Bristol Street <br />project corridor. This redevelopment project will provide for the elimination of <br />blighted conditions in this area, through the use of property tax increment <br />financing techniques. {The City of Santa Ana will be the lead agency.) <br />A total of four alternatives were evaluated in the Draft EIS prior to the selection of a <br />preferred alternative, with three of these contemplating a six-lane divided roadway within <br />a 120 -foot right -of -way with additional lanes and right -of -way width at selected <br />intersections. Section U, following, contains a detailed description of the widening <br />alternatives and a discussion of the factors leading to selection of the preferred <br />alternative. The fourth alternative is the "no project" alternative, which must be included <br />to comply with the statutory requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act +• <br />(NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). A detailed description <br />of the alternatives which are under consideration as well as those evaluated and <br />subsequently withdrawn from consideration can be found in Section R of this document. <br />Illustrations of the proposed street geometrics, intersection modifications and bus .. <br />turnouts are presented on Figures 5 -7, pages 11 -3 through U -13. .. <br />Beneficial impacts resulting from construction of the proposed street improvements <br />would include the following: <br />A. Hydrology <br />Areas with deficient curb and gutter will be replaced by new and properly <br />designed curb and gutter, thus improving existing drainage flows along the edges <br />of Bristol Street. <br />B. Air Quality <br />W <br />Carbon monoxide concentrations would be substantially reduced at intersections <br />within the project area, below both federal and state one -hour and eight -hour �* <br />standards. Along the roadway, emissions of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons <br />would decrease, due to reduced traffic congestion and slightly higher traffic speed, <br />allowing vehicle motors to perform more efficiently. .R <br />aVo <br />
