Paving and Striping  Repair existing asphalt pavement  Microsurfacing existing roadway  Striping to separate bikes pedestrians (6’ bike lanes each way and 10-12’ pedestrian travel) Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

Signage  Remove existing roadway signage  New regulatory signage (minimize number, and location to protect views)  Interpretive panels Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

Accessibility Improvements  Bathroom & drinking fountains (north and south trailheads)  Interpretive panels  Overlooks  Observation scopes  Reasonable effort to provide ADA access to Devil’s Slide trail and overlooks Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

K-Rail Beautification  Why Keep the K-Rails?  Beautification options  Paint Tan  Texturize and Paint  Wire and Stucco  Replace with Faux Rock Wall  Options vary in costs  Maintenance concerns Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

Environmental Review  May 2002 EIS/EIR supplement to 1986 certified by Caltrans  Sept. 2004 California Coastal Commission upheld July 2004 approved CDP  Trail improvements are consistent with CDP  Project will provide memorandum including detailed analysis of biological resources Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

Potential Wetlands  Four potential Wetlands  Two require K-rail relocation  Supervision of a qualified wetland biologist Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project

Bird Nesting  December 2011 Common Murre Restoration Project study identified site for bird 6’ Chain-link blind to protect sensitive Fence areas  Project proposes black Sensitive vinyl clad 6’ tall chain-link Nests/ Breeding fencing to eliminate line of Areas sight Devil’s Slide  USFWS and Murre Project Rock staff approved approach Devil’s Slide Coastal Trail Improvements Project
