PROJECT DETAILS: CA FLAP ED CR 147(2) Ice House Road

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Ice House Road, also designated as County Road 147, is located in El Dorado County, California, and provides recreational access to the world-renowned off-highway vehicle Rubicon Trail, the Crystal Basin Recreation Area within the ENF, the Desolation Wilderness area, Loon Lake, Union Valley Reservoir, and Ice House Reservoir. The route is heavily used by vehicles with trailers hauling boats, horses, off-road vehicles and other recreational vehicles. Within the project limits, the road provides direct access to numerous recreational trails and campgrounds, including the Loon Lake area, and Ice House Resort.

SCOPE OF THE WORK: The proposed action is generally described as a 3R rehabilitation project. The improvements consist of a full-depth reclamation which will pulverize and replace the existing two-lane paved roadway with new 11-foot lanes and 1-foot shoulders along Ice House Road from Peavine Ridge Road to Wentworth Springs. This is consistent with the existing roadway which averages a 24-foot width. Minor drainage improvements will also be completed, including paved ditch and asphalt curb replacements or extensions, culvert cleaning, repairs/adjustments and replacements, the addition of underdrain, ditch reconditioning and regrading, and select areas of riprap lining along ditches. Scaling and cleaning of roadside ditch/catchment areas will occur at several cut slope locations. Schedule A includes 14.95 miles of the described work, Option X includes 2.67 miles of the described work, and Option Y includes replacement of bridge barrier rail on 5 bridges on Ice House Road.
