Santa Clara River Trail Final Master Plan - Development Services ...

Santa Clara River Trail Plan
(VCWPD) gates at N. Ventura Road approximately 2,000 feet west of Highway 101 (Segment 1). Phase 3
is the most isolated and should be built simultaneously with Phases 1, 2 or 4 or when they are complete
to provide natural surveillance on the trail and minimize vandalism.
Phase 4: Pending SCR-3 Levee System Public Safety Project
Phase 4 is the approximately .5 mile trail segment from the VCWPD access gate at N. Ventura Road to
the east side of Highway 101 (Segment 2). Phase 4 could occur simultaneously with the VCWPD SCR-3
Levee System Public Safety project or at any time thereafter, depending on availability of funding. Special
attention will need to be paid to rerouting trail users during construction of the levee and trail projects to
ensure their safe passage between SCRT segments 1 and 3.
Cost Estimates
The construction costs for the Santa Clara River Trail will depend on a number of factors, most
specifically, the final alignment and design of the trail segments. Preliminary estimates for construction
are based on unit costs and estimates needed for grading and paving a 12-foot-wide concrete trail and the
recommended trail amenities. The total estimated cost for the preferred alignment of the Santa Clara
River Trail is just over $7.1 million in 2011 dollars.
The costs for Santa Clara River Trail (see Tables 13 through 16) do not include the potential landfill post
closure amendment, or easement or property acquisition costs for trail development.
