Dublin Notice Of Public Hearing For Tassajara Road Alignment Project

Press release from the City of Dublin:

April 17, 2020

At its meeting to be held on Tuesday, April 21, at 7:00 p.m., the Dublin City Council will hold a Public Hearing to discuss the proposed future right-of-way lines for Tassajara Road between Palisades Drive to the Alameda-Contra Costa County limit line. Due to current social distancing guidelines, this meeting will be held remotely.

The Council will also consider introducing an ordinance to establish the precise alignment of the right-of-way lines for Tassajara Road. The project is proposing to revise the alignment of Tassajara Road to allow for future construction of Tassajara Road as a four-lane arterial. The new alignment will improve traffic safety within both the City of Dublin and in Contra Costa County when future construction is completed.

The City Council will hold a public hearing to hear comments and to consider approving a General Plan Amendment and an Eastern Dublin Specific Plan Amendment related to the Tassajara Road Alignment Project, reducing the number of travel lanes from six lanes to four lanes and to consider introducing an ordinance to establishing a precise alignment of the right-of-way lines for Tassajara Road between Palisades Drive to the Alameda-Contra Costa County Limit Line. The project is proposing to reduce the ultimate right-of-way width of Tassajara Road between North Dublin Ranch Drive to the Alameda-Contra Costa County limit line and to revise the alignment of Tassajara Road from Palisades Drive to the Alameda-Contra Costa County limit line to allow for future construction of Tassajara Road as a four-lane arterial. The new alignment will improve traffic safety within both the City of Dublin and in Contra Costa County when future construction is completed.
