SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby given that the FHWA has
signed a Record of Decision for the First Street Viaduct and Street
Widening Project [BHLS-5006(636)] in Los Angeles, California.
The project will widen the First Street Viaduct by approximately
twenty-six feet, providing two eastbound and two westbound traffic
lanes on the viaduct between Vignes Street and Mission Road separated
by dual light rail tracks within a raised median. The project would
also widen First Street east of the viaduct between Mission Road and
Clarence Street to align the street with the widened viaduct. Further
improvements to the viaduct will replace the north railing, provide
roadway shoulders and reconstruct the Santa Fe Avenue and Myers Street
undercrossings to meet current design standards. Total length of the
project is approximately 0.7 miles. The actions by the Federal
agencies, and the laws under which such actions were taken, are
described in the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) for the
project, approved on November 30, 2005, in the FHWA Record of Decision

administrative record. The FEIS, ROD, and other documents in the FHWA
administrative record file are available by contacting the FHWA or the
California Department of Transportation at the addresses provided
above.
