Why This Vote Matters
The council unanimously approved expanding an existing traffic engineering contract to include work on closing gaps in the Richmond/Ohlone Greenway. This addition will help the city move forward with connecting broken sections of the bike and pedestrian path that currently prevent continuous travel between Richmond and other East Bay cities. The amendment assigns this specific project to Fehr & Peers, a firm already under contract to provide traffic engineering services as needed. This was a routine contract modification that drew no opposition from council members.
