STREETS PROGRAM
Street Improvements
C-33
The Streets Program’s Street Improvements section contains Capital Improvement Program projects that improve a
roadway’s function or structure, other than paving, as the primary scope of work. Typical Street Improvements projects
include sidewalk, curb, and gutter improvements; storm drain improvements; the undergrounding of utilities; intersection
improvements; sidewalk and median ramps; crosswalk improvements; street lighting; and retaining walls.
In this CIP, the Street Improvements section contains one-time projects and no ongoing projects. One-time Street
Improvements projects are prioritized based on safety needs, traffic levels, available funding sources, project costs, and
community impacts.
Traffic Mitigation Funds, Storm Drain Funds, and the Utility Underground Fund all provide designated funding revenue
through development fee charges for their related project categories. Los Gatos does not have a designated funding source
for other street improvements which do not fall into these categories; however, grants, in-lieu fees, CDBG funds, and
community benefit funds are utilized when available.

Project Name Hernandez Avenue Storm Drain
Improvements
Project Number 816-0403
Department Parks & Public Works Project Manager Town Engineer: Kevin Rohani
Description This project will improve the Hernandez Avenue storm drain system with the installation of an
underground storm drain pipe and sidewalk above.
Location The storm drain project is located on the south side of Hernandez Avenue, between Walnut Avenue
and Wissahickon Avenue.
Project
Background
Hernandez Avenue is a hillside collector street with an incomplete sidewalk network and storm drain
systems alongside the roadway. This street averages over 1,000 vehicles per day, a normal amount for
a collector street. At previous neighborhood meetings, residents indicated an interest in having
continuous sidewalks, particularly in the area where an open storm drain exists.
This project installs an underground storm drain pipe into the existing ditch and puts a concrete
sidewalk, curb, and gutter system along the roadway to feed runoff water into the storm drain pipe.
This street improvement addresses several neighborhood needs, including an improved drainage
system, a safer pedestrian area, and appearance of the neighborhood.
This project will be funded by the Storm Basin Fund. This project is scheduled for FY 2015/16.
Operating
Budget Impacts
Ongoing operating costs would be significantly reduced as this project would eliminate the need to
clean or repair the existing open ditch. Engineering staff time will be addressed in the Operating
Budget in FY 2015/16.

Project Name Highway 9 / University Avenue Intersection
Improvements
Project Number 813-0202
Department Parks & Public Works Project Manager Town Engineer: Kevin Rohani
Description This project will replace the old and outdated traffic signal at the Highway 9 and University Avenue
intersection with a new traffic signal system. Additionally, dedicated left turn lanes will be
constructed on University Avenue to improve vehicle traffic flow. Sidewalks and ADA ramps will
also be installed in compliance with current codes.
Location The project is located at the intersection of Highway 9 and University Avenue.
Project
Background
The lack of an updated traffic signal system and dedicated left turn lanes has impacted vehicle traffic
flow, causing vehicle and pedestrian safety and capacity issues. To address these issues, a new traffic
signal system, including dedicated left turn lanes, will be installed. The sidewalks and ADA ramps
located at this intersection will also be improved to comply with current codes.
The project intersection is located in the Caltrans right-of-way and due to state budget challenges,
funding has been limited for the past several years. However, the Town has secured a grant through
the Highway Safety Implementation Program (HSIP). The project will be funded through this grant
and revenue from development projects in the immediate area. Additionally, staff will pursue other
funding opportunities to construct a bicycle/pedestrian connection between Highway 9 and the Los
Gatos Creek Trail. This project involves several utility pole relocations by PG&E.
Operating
Budget Impacts Engineering staff time for project oversight is addressed in the FY 2012/13 Operating Budget.

Project Name Hicks & Philips Culvert Improvements
Project Number 816-0411
Department Parks & Public Works Project Manager Town Engineer: Kevin Rohani
Description The project will rehabilitate two existing corrugated metal culverts under Hicks Road and Phillips
Avenue. These culverts, due to a lack of protective coating at the time of their construction many
years ago, have rusted and partially failed, causing storm water to infiltrate under the culvert,
creating further erosion.
Location This project is located at Hicks Road and Philips Avenue.
Project
Background
This project will improve the storm drain infrastructure on Hicks Road and Phillips Avenue. The
existing corrugated metal culverts under these roads have rusted and partially failed. These culverts
allow for the proper transport of storm water under the roadways. When maintained properly, these
culverts help prevent erosion of the roadway. If these culverts are not rehabilitated by lining the
culverts, which is the most economical approach, it will require open-cutting and trenching to
remove and replace these culverts at substantially higher cost and disruption to the public.
