📋 Tender Overview
Description:The Broadway-El Portal Safe Routes (BESR) Project will construct a 1.25-mile, separated & protected, 2-way bicycle
cycletrack, & Safe Routes to School (SR2S) improvements between this cycletrack and Lake Elementary, Bayview
Elementary and Helms Middle School. Additional pedestrian & transit improvements included in the BESR project are bus
boarding islands—to facilitate safe transit usage that is safely integrated with the cycletrack—and an enhanced bicycle
connection to an unincorporated neighborhood in Contra Costa County. Project will also include additional cycle track
improvements to link SR2S improvements to the Contra Costa Community College transit center with cycletrack
improvements to Mission Bell Drive, Moraga Road, Castro Road, and Campus Drive. This project also includes noninfrastructure components for safe routes to school. These non-infrastructure components will be carried out by Contra
Costa Health Services. CC Health Services' $24K contribution is reflected under the "Other Local" fund line.
