A PID is both a scoping document for future project planning and funding, and a document that is a summary of work done to date. For Caltrans projects, it is a required part of the documentation for funding and follows a specific set of templates, instructions and guidance. The type of PID prepared for the Oakland-Alameda Estuary Bridge was a Project Study Report (PSR). The PID evaluated viable alternative alignments, and scored them against established criteria. Three top alternatives were selected and studied in depth in the PID.
PID: Advisory Committees
A Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Stakeholder/Equity Advisory Committee (S/EAC) were created to guide the development of the PID. The TAC held four meetings and the S/EAC met three times. Meeting materials are available upon request.
This study explored a smaller set of crossing options in detail and studied the technical feasibility of a bicycle/pedestrian bridge that meets the Coast Guard navigational requirements. The study concluded that such a bridge is feasible. As a part of this analysis, a spreadsheet tool was also developed to compare the expected usage of different crossing options (available upon request).
