Existing law establishes the Tri-Valley-San Joaquin Valley Regional Rail Authority for purposes of planning, developing, delivering, and operating cost-effective and responsive transit connectivity, between the Bay Area Rapid Transit District's rapid transit system and the Altamont Corridor Express commuter rail service. Existing law gives the authority all of the powers necessary for planning, acquiring, leasing, developing, jointly developing, owning, controlling, using, jointly using, disposing of, designing, procuring, and constructing facilities to achieve transit connectivity, including, among other powers, the power to contract with public and private entities for the planning, design, and construction of the connection. Existing law authorizes these contracts to be assigned separately or combined to include any or all tasks necessary to achieve transit connectivity. Existing law authorizes certain entities, including, among others, the Department of Transportation and regional transportation agencies, as defined, to engage in a Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method for specified public work projects, as specified. Existing law defines the Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method as a project delivery method in which a construction manager is procured to provide both preconstruction services during the design phase of the project and construction services during the construction phase of the project. Existing law also requires the Department of Transportation to perform construction inspection services for projects on or interfacing with the state highway system, as specified. This bill would authorize the Tri-Valley-San Joaquin Valley Regional Rail Authority to use the Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method when contracting for the planning, design, and construction of the connection. The bill would additionally authorize the contracts of the authority to extend to work on the state highway system for the construction of passenger rail service through the Altamont Pass Corridor. The bill would require the Department of Transportation to perform construction inspection services for any of these projects that are on or that interface with the state highway system.
