Geotechnical Investigation for the proposed State Route 152 Pavement and Complete Streets Project

Caltrans District 5, through the Office of Geotechnical Design West, is forecasting a project to conduct subsurface geotechnical investigations for the State Route 152 Pavement and Complete Streets Project. Located in Watsonville, California, specifically between Post Miles T0.31 and T4.14, the scope of work involves the execution of five borings to support utility location and shoulder embankment stabilization. The required activities include drilling, visual logging, in-situ testing, and the sampling of soil and rock to provide critical subsurface characterization for engineering design and pavement rehabilitation. The project is categorized under NAICS code 541360 and was posted on August 7, 2025. From an environmental standpoint, the project is statutorily exempt from further review under CEQA Class 6, as confirmed by a Notice of Exemption signed by Environmental Scientist Kylen Kennedy on August 6, 2025. While the project identifies the place of performance and primary agency contacts, there are currently no specified contract values, formal delivery schedules, or detailed evaluation factors for award provided in the available documentation.
