OVERVIEWMajor roads projects target the most heavily traveled roads

in Marin County for repairs, as well as safety and usability

improvements for motorists, pedestrians, transit and cyclists.

These are roads of countywide significance that often cross

jurisdictional boundaries.

The prioritization of Major Roads projects is based on the

following performance criteria identified in the Measure A 1/2

cent Transportation Sales Tax Expenditure Plan, passed in 2004.

• Condition of roadway

• Average daily traffic

• Transit frequency

• Bicycle and pedestrian activity

• School access

• Accident history

• Opportunities for matching funds

• Geographic equity

TAM’s role is to administer the allocation of Measure A funds for

major roads projects. The detailed scoping of the project will

occur at the local level by the project sponsor/local jurisdiction.

Five planning areas were identified for Major Roads Projects

and funds are allocated.

PROJECT PARTNERSAll Marin County jurisdictions, Department of Public Works

staff and the Technical Advisory Committee.

MAJOR ROADS FUNDINGMajor Road Projects total estimated Measure A funding is

$60.5 million and State Local Partnership Program (SLPP)

Contribution is $6 million. Additional competitive grant funding

is available from other sources, such as One Bay Area Grant

(OBAG), not shown in the chart below.

415.226.0815 | www.tam.ca.gov

NOVEMBER 2016

OVERVIEWSir Francis Drake Boulevard from Samuel P. Taylor to the

Platform Bridge Project, sponsored by the County of Marin,

was the top priority project for the Western Marin Planning

Area. The project rehabilitated and re-paved a 5.2-mile-long

section of Sir Francis Drake west of the Town of Lagunitas

through Samuel P. Taylor to the Platform Bridge. The project

was completed in January 2014.

The second priority project for the Western Marin Planning

area is Sir Francis Drake from Samuel P. Taylor Park to the Fairfax

Town Limit. Due to limited funding, the second priority project

will concentrate on improvements to a 1.35-mile section of

roadway from Lagunitas Road to Wild Iris Drive in the town

of Lagunitas. The roadway will be resurfaced and the project

will include improvements to bus stops as well as pedestrian

and bicycle conditions.

PARTNERSThe project is sponsored by the County of Marin and managed

by the Marin County Department of Public Works.

COST AND FUNDINGThe first prioritized project used approximately $7.9 million

of the $8.8 million available for the West Marin Planning Area,

leaving approximately $937,000 available for the second

prioritized project.

STATUSIn October, TAM allocated $100,000 to the County of Marin to

develop the preliminary engineering and design. The County

estimates that Categorical Exemption will be signed in February

and design will be completed in May 2017. Construction is

expected to begin as soon as June 2017. Prior to construction,

the County will request a supplemental allocation of the

Measure A remaining funds for the construction phase.
