January 2020
The Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) has expanded its service area as of January 2, 2020. SBCTA awarded a $2.8 million contract to Steve’s Towing to serve along Interstate 15 in the Cajon Pass from Sierra Avenue to Oak Hill Road.
The West Valley Connector Project (WVC) is the second Bus Rapid Transit corridor being developed in San Bernardino County. In its entirety, WVC is a proposed 35 mile-long transit improvement project that would connect the cities of Pomona, Montclair, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana. Stations are spaced 0.5 to 1 mile apart and are “rapid bus” style stations designed for fast boarding to facilitate higher operating speeds. Phase I will connect the Downtown Pomona Metrolink Station on the Riverside Line, the Ontario International Airport, Ontario Mills, the Rancho Cucamonga Metrolink Station on the San Bernardino Line, and Victoria Gardens. The funding plan approved by the Board of Directors on Wednesday, January 8, 2020 focuses on Phase I of the project.
One of the more complex projects in the East Valley is the Mount Vernon Viaduct Project. SBCTA is slated to replace a nearly century old bridge that spans over the Burlington Northern Santa Fe rail yard in San Bernardino, while providing a vital connection between north and south San Bernardino on the City’s west side. The existing bridge has a sufficiency rating of 2 out of 100 and is in urgent need of replacement. SBCTA took over the management of this project from the City of San Bernardino (City) in 2016. SBCTA then received legislative approval in 2017 to administer this project through the Design Build (DB) delivery method in order to get a firm under contract to demolish and rebuild the bridge as expeditiously as possible. Since then, staff has been working with various consultants to finalize the preliminary engineering, complete an environmental revalidation and develop a DB procurement package.
