Bradley Capital Preventative Maintenance Project

The Bradley Capital Preventative Maintenance Project, solicitation number 0519000035, is a Caltrans District 5 initiative located along U.S. 101 in Monterey County. The project spans from the East Garrison off-ramp at post mile R1.9 to the Jolon Road Undercrossing at post mile R9.7. The primary scope of work involves rehabilitating and extending the service life of the roadway and shoulder pavement, as well as replacing the southbound and northbound San Antonio River Bridges at post mile R6.6 and the southbound North Bradley Undercrossing Bridge at post mile R7.9. All roadside safety hardware must be updated to current design standards and meet the Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware crash testing criteria. Environmental compliance is managed under the California Environmental Quality Act and Division 13 of the California Public Resources Code, with a Mitigated Negative Declaration confirming no significant environmental effects. Key requirements include tribal monitoring during all ground disturbance, archaeological monitoring at the San Antonio River Bridges, and strict adherence to restoration ratios for jurisdictional areas and trees. The project is designated as risk level 2 for storm water impacts due to the high receiving water risk of the Salinas River. Contractors are required to maintain erosion controls and equipment on a daily basis to prevent leaks and spills.
