Walnut Avenue Improvement Project

The City of Galt is initiating the Walnut Avenue Improvement Project in Sacramento County to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety infrastructure. The scope of work includes constructing an overlay and upgrading bicycle lanes to high-visibility green standards on Walnut Avenue between Carillion Boulevard and Elk Hills Drive. Additionally, the project involves the construction of a new 400-foot sidewalk on the north side of Walnut Avenue west of Vintage Oaks Avenue, as well as the installation of concrete ramps, a raised concrete median, and thermoplastic crosswalk striping and signage. A key safety feature of the project is the installation of a pedestrian rapid flashing beacon with an audible warning and crosswalk at the intersection of Walnut Avenue and Emerald Vista Drive. This project is classified under NAICS code 237310 and is currently listed as a forecast with a posted date of December 19, 2025. The project is exempt under CEQA Section 15301(c) as it consists of minor public safety improvements with no significant environmental impacts. Administrative oversight is managed by the City of Galt, with Betsy Flores serving as the primary point of contact. Performance will take place within the city of Galt, California, specifically focusing on the segments of Walnut Avenue between Emerald Vista Drive to Vintage Oak Drive and Carillion Boulevard to Elk Hills Drive.
