City of Tracy outlines multi‑phase Coral Hollow Road widening and safety upgrades
Summary
City of Tracy engineer Sharad detailed phased improvements to Coral Hollow Road — including intersection upgrades, a nearly 2‑mile widening with bike lanes and sidewalks, a developer‑funded segment, and a proposed diverging diamond interchange — and listed CIP project numbers and the city website for updates.
Sharad, an engineer with the City of Tracy engineering division, presented a multi‑phase plan to widen and upgrade Coral Hollow Road and nearby intersections, saying the work is intended to improve traffic flow and multimodal safety as the city grows.
In the update Sharad said the Coral Hollow and Valpico intersection improvements are nearing completion. He described Phase 3 (CIP 72,104) as focused on the Coral Hollow and Linney Road intersections and including railroad crossing upgrades, intersection roadway widening and installation of a new traffic signal.
Phase 4 (CIP 73,144) would widen nearly two miles of Coral Hollow Road between Parkside Drive and Linney Road, turning the corridor into a four‑lane arterial with bike lanes, sidewalks, a raised median and a planned future trail connection. "This phase will widen nearly 2 miles of Coral Hollow Road between Parkside Drive and Linney Road," Sharad said.
Sharad said Phase 5 would extend the four‑lane widening south from Rene Road to the California Aqueduct and indicated that this segment is expected to be developer funded and constructed rather than financed directly by the city. He described Phase 6 as a redesign of the I‑580 interchange into a diverging diamond interchange intended to improve traffic flow and enhance safety for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.
Sharad framed the projects as part of a long‑term vision to prepare the Coral Hollow corridor for continued growth in Tracy. He closed by directing the public to cityoftracy.org for project updates and schedules.
The city did not provide schedules, exact cost estimates or a detailed funding breakdown for each phase during this presentation; the CIP numbers and developer‑funding note were presented by Sharad as identifiers for future planning.
