Common use of No Build Alternative Clause in Contracts

No Build Alternative. The No Build Alternative would not construct HOV/express lanes in each direction of I-680 or increase the capacity of I-680 within the project limits. I-680 would continue to have three general purpose lanes in each direction, except north of Dublin Boulevard, which has four general purpose lanes in the northbound direction. Existing or in-construction HOV/express lanes would border the project area to the north and south, as described in Section 3.1. This alternative assumes maintenance of the existing facility and the construction of other planned and programmed projects on I-680 within the project limits through the year 2045, including the following: • I-680 Sunol Express Lanes Project – Northbound (EA 4G050), which is constructing an HOV/express lane on northbound I-680 from SR 262 (Mission Boulevard) to north of the SR 84 interchange. • I-680 Pavement Rehabilitation Project between ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Road and Alcosta Boulevard (EA 04- 0J620), which would resurface and restore the I-680 roadway and ramps and improve drainage facilities, guardrails, concrete barriers, and other roadway features. • SR 84 Expressway Widening and SR 84/I-680 Interchange Improvements Project (EA 297631), which would widen and conform SR 84 to expressway standards between south of ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Drive and I-680, improve SR 84/I-680 interchange ramps, and extend the existing southbound I-680 HOV/express lane northward by approximately 2 miles, to approximately 0.8 mile north of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Road. The No Build Alternative represents the baseline condition against which the Build Alternative will be compared.
