Title

Widening of Manzanita Avenue, Chico Canyon Road, and Bruce Road between East Avenue and State Route 32

Description

The California Department of Fish and Game is executing a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement number 1600-2007-0079-R2 pursuant to Section 1602 of the Fish and Game Code to the project applicant, City of Chico. The project includes the reconstruction of Manzanita Avenue from approximately 500 feet east of Lindo Channel to approximately 250 feet east of Centennial Avenue. The existing Big Chico Creek Bridge will be widened and retrofitted to accommodate bicycle/pedestrian/equestrian lanes. To accomplish this, an additional 13.5 feet and 8 new 18-inch pilings will be required on the south side of the bridge and 9.0 feet and 4 new 18-inch pilings on the north side. The bridge will be expanded from its current 55.5-foot configuration to approximately 78 feet. The existing Big Chico Creek undercrossing and approach paths adjacent to the southeasterly creek bank/bridge abutment will be improved/hardscaped. A storm drain outfall will be constructed downstream of the Manzanita Avenue Bridge and upstream of the bicycle/pedestrian/equestrian bridge.
