AVENUE INTERSECTION ENHANCEMENT PROJECT (CIP NO. 7118)
SUMMARY
The plans and specifications for the Irvine Boulevard/Newport Avenue Intersection
Enhancement Project (CIP No. 7118) have been prepared and the project is now ready to be
bid. The project proposes to widen the intersection of Irvine Boulevard/Newport Avenue and
all approaches to the intersection. Irvine Boulevard will meet its six (6) lane Major Arterial
designation and Newport Avenue will be 6 lanes at the intersection to accommodate projected
traffic volumes.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 04-44, approving the plans and
specifications for the Irvine Boulevard/Newport Avenue Intersection Enhancement Project (CIP
No. 7118) and authorizing and directing the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
FISCAL IMPACT
The FY 2003-2004 Capital Improvement Project (CIP) Budget provides $2,769,150 for the
construction and contract administration of the Irvine Boulevard/Newport Avenue Intersection
Enhancement Project (CIP No. 7118). The engineer's construction cost estimate to complete this
work is $2,700,000.
Project funding for the construction and contract administration phases is comprised of Measure
"M" Turnback funds, Measure "M" Competitive funds, and Gas Tax funds, including Proposition
111 Gas Tax Funds.
BACKGROUND
The proposed project will widen the intersection of Irvine Boulevard/Newport Avenue and all
approaches to the intersection. The limits of the widening on Irvine Boulevard are from west of
Holt Avenue to 1 00 feet east of Elizabeth Way, and on Newport Avenue from First Street to Wass
Street. On Irvine Boulevard the improvements will include three through lanes in each direction
with double left turn lanes in each direction at Newport Avenue. On Newport Avenue, the
improvements will include three through lanes in each direction between Holt Avenue and the
north side of Old Irvine Boulevard. Double left turn lanes will be provided for southbound
Newport Avenue at Old Irvine Boulevard and for northbound Newport Avenue at Holt Avenue.

Both roadways will also be resurfaced; drainage improvements will be constructed on Irvine
Boulevard at the intersection of Old Irvine Boulevard, and raised median landscape and
hardscape improvements will be constructed on both roadways. Old Irvine Boulevard will also be
resurfaced.
Right-of-way was required from eighteen (18) properties in the form of acquisitions and/or
Temporary Construction Easements. The City has completed the necessary right-of-way
transactions for all properties. All acquisitions were completed either through escrow or the
eminent domain process. The plans and specifications require that the Contractor transition
existing private property to the new street widening improvements. These private property
improvements will consist of new asphalt paving, new concrete paving, landscaping and/or minor
improvements.
The final Mitigated Negative Declaration for this project was approved by the City Council on
November 1, 1999. The Notice of Determination was filed on November 4, 1999 and was
