He said the project will separate
the railroad tracks from the road by
lowering them, and pedestrians will
benefit from the added safety of pe
destrian crossover structures.
Blaschke said the project also may
minimize the threat of hazardous
waste spills. Although there is no
way to totally eliminate the threat,
the potential to derail may be de
creased and train/car interaction
may be lessened, he said.
The unveiled model of LoTrak
consists of three new interchanges to
be constructed in areas of heavy traf
fic flow near campus.
A diamond-shaped interchange
with exit and entrance ramps will be
constructed where University Drive
intersects Wellborn Road. This in
terchange will improve the existing
interchange and increase capacity
and safety, Blaschke said.
Another interchange will be con
structed south of George Bush
Drive. In addition, Blaschke pro
poses an interchange off of Joe
Routt Boulevard with entrance and
exit ramps that access the center of
campus. This interchange will pro
vide access to the parking lot west of
the stadium and may access the pro
posed Special Events Center.
Blaschke said there will be ap
proximately six areas of separation
from traffic on Wellborn Road,
which will significantly increase
east/west pedestrian mobility.
The project also includes the con
struction of a pedestrian mall struc
ture including architectural treat
ment and landscaping at Old Main
Drive.
Pending approval of the project,
the SDHPT has requested the Re
gent’s support in the form of a com
mittment to accept some financial
responsibility for the $35 million
project.
The adoption of the project
would mean that the Regents agree
to accept the financial responsibility
of the SDHPT’s preliminary con
struction cost estimate of $6.6 mil
lion for all utility adjustments be
tween University Drive and George
Bush Drive, including adjustments
to the storm sewer system; recons
truction of campus streets and/or
walks leading to the pedestrian mall;
one half of the landscaping costs
along Wellborn Road through cam
pus plus complete maintenance re
sponsibility for landscaped areas.
The SDHPT will be responsible for
things such as vehicular crossings
and road construction, Blaschke
said.
The construction project, which
wifi take approximately four years,
also will be supported by the local
community. The city of Bryan has
recognized the safety and capacity
advantages of the project and has re
quested that it be expanded to Villa
Maria Road. The city said it will con
tribute $2.9 million from bonds to
the project.
Blaschke said that proposing to
continue to lower the tracks to a
point north of Villa Maria and ex
tending the divided highway con
cept has ,_pleased the railroad and
made the project more appealing.
Operations of the Southern Pacific
railway and the Union Pacific rail
way will not be hindered by the con
struction, he said.
College Station also has indicated
financial support, and if the order is
adopted by the Regents today, the
city will hold a bond issue to acquire
their share of the funding.
Ed Davis, deputy chancellor for fi
nance and administration, indicated
that University funding will come
from the Permanent University
Fund (PUF).
