2007-2012.2013
2017*2019
The attached resolution authorizes the award of the public improvement construction
contract for the 2022 Pavement Marking Project. The pavement marking program is
essential and vital to our transportation system as it provides safety to drivers and
pedestrians on the public road system. Well-defined crosswalk stripping for example
provides areas where pedestrians can traverse a roadway safely.
BACKGROUND
The City contracts for a city-wide pavement marking project to furnish, install, maintain,
and remove permanent pavement markings to include Lines and Symbols and Legends
on City streets as directed by the Engineering Department.
DISCUSSION
The Pavement Marking Project is completed annually due to a more rapid deterioration
on higher volume, high vehicular movement roadways. Pavement markings are applied
using a waterborne paint with a service life of approximately two (2) years.
As part of a cooperative Maintenance Agreement with the Iowa Department of
Transportation (Iowa DOT), the City will include portions of Iowa DOT jurisdictional
pavement markings with the City's annual pavement marking program. The
Maintenance Agreement includes all Symbols and Legends and a portion of center
Lines on Iowa DOT routes within the City. The Iowa DOT will reimburse the City for their
share of project costs after the project is completed and accepted.
BID RESULTS
The City received two bids on April 21, 2022, for the 2022 Pavement Marking Project.
SELCO, Inc. of Blue Grass, IA, submitted the low bid in the amount of $213,228.39,
which is 3.9% over the engineer's estimate. A summary of the bid proposals received is
