Document Description
The San Benito High School District proposes to permanently close a segment of Nash Road between Monterey Street and West Street adjacent to Hollister High School in the City of Hollister, California (Proposed Project). Implementation of the proposed closure is being pursued by means of negotiated acquisition, a condemnation action, or an acquisition in lieu of condemnation for the District to obtain control of the Hollister roadway segment and restrict vehicular access. The roadway segment is currently closed to vehicular traffic between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. on the weekdays using a gated system to reduce traffic conflicts near the school campus, with limited emergency vehicle access provided through a preemption device. The Proposed Project would extend this existing daytime closure to a 24-hour closure, eliminating nighttime access to through traffic. No new roadway construction or physical improvements are proposed. The purpose of the Proposed Project is to enhance student safety, campus security, and pedestrian circulation by removing vehicular through traffic along Nash Road adjacent to school facilities at all times.
