The purpose of the project is to improve the seismic, structural, and traffic safety of the roadway within the setting and context of the Presidio of San Francisco. Originally constructed in 1936 with narrow lanes, no median, and no shoulders, Doyle Drive is approaching the end of its useful life. Structural degradation caused by age, heavy traffic, and exposure to salty air could lead to loss of the facility. The Draft EIS/EIR is in the final stages of completion and is to be circulated for public review and comment by December 31, 2005. Following a 60-day public review period during which public meetings will be held, a Preferred Alternative will be selected and a Final EIS/EIR will be issued. Following public circulation of the Final EIS/EIR, the Federal Highway Administration and the Authority will issue the Record of Decision and Notice of Determination as the respective federal and state lead agencies. The Draft EIS/EIR evaluates three project alternatives: Alternative 1, No-Build; Alternative 2, Replace and Widen; and Alternative 5, Presidio Parkway . This is an information item. 13.
