Temporary Closure of York / Sacramento Intersection
VALLEJO— In preparation for Downtown Streetscape improvements to the intersection of York Street and Sacramento Street, the intersection is scheduled for temporary closure for approximately eight months beginning no sooner than February 22, 2010. This temporary closure will require the relocation of the York and Marin Bus Transit Center on February 22, 2010, to Mare Island Way between Main Street and Georgia Street until the opening of the new Bus Transit Center now under construction between Sacramento Street and Santa Clara Street scheduled for completion by March, 2011. Impacts to bus operations that currently use the Ferry terminal (the Vine, various tours) are expected to be minimal. Scheduled improvements that require closure of the intersection include new landscaping, street furniture, signage, decorative paving, street lighting, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, pavement, and street connection to the new Bus Transit Center. Funding for the Downtown Streetscape project was provided for by a $2.2 million American Recovery and Reinvestment Act Grant. To learn more about the Act please visit http://georgemiller.house.gov/infocus/2009/02/economic_recovery_1.html .
