Home Browse Search

Preliminary Environment • Time Warner— fiber optic cable • Metrolink — signal and communication fiber optic The affected utilities shall be relocated in accordance with State law and regulations and County and City policies. There shall be ongoing coordination between the City of Santa Ana, the affected agencies, and the utility companies in order to minimize potential disruption of utility service. No adverse effects to public services are anticipated. 29. Will the project affect access to properties or roadways? Access would be modified at the following APNs. • 398 - 092 -11 (temporary and permanent impact) — driveway approach would be reconstructed within the public right -of -way • 398 - 101 -16 (temporary and permanent impact) — access would be relocated from Fuller Street to Fruit Street • 398 - 202 -09 (temporary impact) — driveway approach would be reconstructed within the public right -of -way • 398 - 205 -05 (temporary impact) - driveway approach would be reconstructed within the public right -of -way • 398 - 361 -01 (temporary impact) — access along Terminal Street may be temporarily impacted during construction • 398 - 204 -04 (Santa Ana Transportation Center) (temporary and permanent impact) — reconstruction of the access and circulation would occur to ensure that access and circulation remains suitable within the Santa Ana Transportation Center With regard to roadways, the connection of Logan Street to Santa Ana Boulevard will be permanently eliminated and a cul -de -sac will be constructed at the end of Logan Street. Impacts to property and roadway access will be evaluated further in the Community Impact Assessment that is prepared. 30. Will the project involve changes in access control to the State Highway System (SHS)? The proposed project would not result in a change in access control. Some construction activity will occur to the west of the intersection of Santa Ana Boulevard and the Interstate 5 off- and on- ramps, however, this would not result in a change in access control. 31. Will the project involve the use of a temporary road, detour, or ramp closure? During construction the project proposes to construct a temporary two track shoofly (temporary) railroad alignment for the purpose of constructing the underpass structure while maintaining railroad service, which is to be constructed beginning just south of the existing Metrolink crossing of 1 -5 and terminating south of the Santa Ana Transportation Center near 4" Street. This shoofly alignment would be located east of the existing railroad alignment. The project also proposes to construct a two - lane detour road south of Santa Ana Boulevard, which would be used by traffic during the construction of the underpass bridge and its approaches. The project also proposes to use Fruit Street as a detour route during the final phase of construction. New right -of -way, including both permanent acquisition and temporary easements, will be needed for the construction of the shoofly and detour road. 32. Will the project reduce available parking? As shown under Item 24, there would be sixteen full acquisition parcels as part of the proposed project. The parking at all of these locations would be removed, however, this parking is for the property where the use would be removed and therefore the parking would no longer be required. This situation is present for all but one of the sixteen full acquisition parcels. At APN 398 - 208 -01 there are approximately 13 parking spaces. These spaces are used by APN 398 - 101 -16. The project shall require a portion of the existing building located on parcel 398 - 101 -016 to be removed. This potential decrease in building square footage may result in a decrease of the required parking spaces, offsetting the required spaces needing replacement. In 9 19E -80
