San Gabriel River Bicycle Trail, Phase 2

The second phase of improvements at the San Gabriel River Bicycle Trail will soon begin in Cerritos and Lakewood.

Phase 2 will cost an estimated $336,000, and it will realign and reconstruct another 460 feet of the path just south of Del Amo Boulevard. Additionally, the existing reclamation waterline and street lights will be relocated, and trail signage, yellow centerline striping and pavement markings will be installed. The reconstruction also will remove sharp turns and improve the sight distance, which will improve the level of safet.

Following Phase 2, Phase 3 should have a budget of $1,080,000 for the reconstruction of an about one mile segment of the trail and widening the existing bike trail from 10 feet to 12 feet wide -- from Del Amo Boulevard to Carson Street in the City of Lakewood.

During the final Phase 4, which should cost an estimated $1,350,000, work crews will realign and reconstruct a tunnel and 125 feet of the path at 183rd Street in Cerritos. A new access ramp will be constructed on the north side of 183rd, which will follow the alignment of the current tunnel approach.
