Updated February 29, 2012

Top of the Hill Improvements

The Top of the Hill Improvements project includes the construction of a pedestrian/transit plaza at the Mission Street/John Daly Boulevard intersection, a custom designed pergola structure with wind screening, and a new bus shelter and pedestrian safety and mobility improvements along Mission Street from John Daly Boulevard to Parkview Avenue as well as streetscape/landscape improvements along the corridor. The pedestrian and streetscape improvements include bulb-outs at intersections to make pedestrians more visible to traffic and shorten street crossings, a new pedestrian crossing at the north leg of the John Daly Boulevard intersection, widening of the west sidewalk between Theta Avenue and Parkview Avenue, new street trees, pedestrian scale lighting and modified median islands with new landscaping. A water main will be upgraded and relocated along the west side of Mission Street from John Daly Boulevard to Parkview Avenue.

Construction will start in mid-April 2011 and will be completed by December 2011.

Citywide Accessibility Improvements

Daly City was awarded a grant of $420,000 through Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC) Transportation for Livable Communities (TLC) program. The TLC program is funded with Surface Transportation Program and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (STP/CMAQ) funds under the Federal Safe Accountable, Flexible and Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU) program. In general, TLC grant funds are used to improve the public right-of-way and encourage pedestrian transportation.

The Citywide Accessibility Improvements project includes accessibility enhancements such as the replacement, upgrade and installation of sidewalk access ramps at various locations throughout the City. The curb ramps at approximately 70 intersections will be installed/replaced as part of the project.

Construction is anticipated to start in July 2012 and be completed by November 2012.

Street Slurry Seal and Cape Seal 2012

Since 1998, Daly City Public Works has undertaken a comprehensive street pavement preventative maintenance program that includes an annual Street Slurry Seal Project. Street slurry sealing and cape sealing replaces fine aggregate stripped from the pavement surface, reduces water penetration in the roadway base and thereby reduces base failures and the resultant damage that is much more costly to repair. This year’s project includes the Crocker and Hillside neighborhoods.

Construction is anticipated to start in late July 2012 and be completed by September 2012.

Street Resurfacing 2012

The Street Resurfacing 2012 project utilizes California Proposition 1B funding to improve City streets. Work will include the installation or upgrade of sidewalk ramps at select locations, pavement repairs, milling of the pavement surface, and overlay of the street with a new layer of asphalt concrete. Work will include associated tasks such as utility box and manhole adjustments and pavement striping and marking.

The construction start date is late-August 2012. Construction is anticipated to be substantially completed by November 2012.
