INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolutions provide for the acceptance of the construction contract for the
Asphalt Overlay Project - Curb Ramps Phase Three.
BACKGROUND
The purpose of this project was to replace fourteen non-compliant access ramps in
conjunction with the Public Works Asphalt Overlay Program at three intersections and a
mid-block crossing:
• Whittier Street & Rhomberg Avenue
• Mid-block crossing at 1750 Rhomberg Avenue
• Hamilton Street & Rhomberg Avenue
• Decatur Street & Rhomberg Avenue
All work was completed in September of 2014, however one ramp did not meet
specifications, requiring reconstruction. Due to timing of a fourth ramp project and the
onset of winter the ramp could not be reconstructed until the 2015 construction season;
the work has been completed bringing the remaining ramp into compliance.
DISCUSSION
The Asphalt Overlay Project - Curb Access Ramps Phase Three received one bid from
Midwest Concrete, Inc. with a bid of $54,415. The bid was 2.06% lower than the
Engineers estimate.
The Asphalt Overlay Project - Curb Access Ramps Phase Three was completed by
Midwest Concrete, Inc. of Peosta, Iowa in the final contract amount of$50,782.32 which
is 6.7% under the contract amount of$54,415.00. The average cost per ramp was
$3,627.31. All sidewalks were installed to achieve the proper slopes mandated by the
Public Right of Way Accessibilities Guidelines (PROWAG) standards.
