The Ekwill Street and Fowler Road extensions project will be “constructed as the largest, most expensive project in the history of the city,” Campero said.
Construction costs are estimated to reach more than $35 million, “with a majority of that funding coming from grant funds,” he said.
The project is in the design phase, and it will construct Ekwill Street across Old Town Goleta from Kellogg Avenue to Fairview Avenue and extend South Kellogg Avenue to Technology Drive, a city staff report stated.
New streets will have two-lane roads and include bike lanes, sidewalks and parkways. Project plans also call for adding roundabouts two at Hollister Avenue and the interchange of Highway 217, and one at the Pine Avenue and Ekwill Street intersection.
