Van Milligen, City Manager FROM: Gus Psihoyos, City Engineer (;�0-31 DATE: June 12, 2017 RE: Grandview Avenue & Loras Boulevard Intersection Improvement Project INTRODUCTION The enclosed resolutions authorize the public bidding procedure for the Grandview Avenue & Loras Boulevard Intersection Improvement Project. BACKGROUND The project location is along Grandview Avenue at Loras Boulevard. Loras is currently signalized, but the signals are in deteriorated condition. The existing conduits are impassable and vehicle detection has not worked for many years turning the signal essentially into a "pretimed" signal. There are also no left turn signals for Grandview Avenue traveling North or South. This intersection is adjacent to Allison- Henderson Memorial Park which sees heavier pedestrian movements and the existing signals do not have pedestrian signal heads. This project will reconstruct the signal at Loras and Grandview. All signal legs of the intersection will have dedicated left turn movements along with countdown pedestrian signals. This project will complement the future Grandview Avenue-University Avenue Roundabout and the current Delhi-Grandview Roundabout. The traffic signal will utilize advanced detection capability to help maintain traffic progression on the north-south traffic movements. The traffic signals will be connected by fiber optics which will go into the Traffic Operations Center at City Hall for remote monitoring and adjustments. These proposed improvements were recommended by the East/West Corridor Study that was formally adopted by the City Council at the February 20, 2012 City Council meeting. A supplemental Traffic Safety grant has been approved by the Iowa DOT in the amount of$259,357.04. DISCUSSION The project provides for the reconstruction of the traffic signals at North Grandview and Loras Boulevard. This intersection will include new traffic signals with mastarms for improved visibility of the traffic signals, ADA pedestrian access ramps, related sidewalk replacement and pavement work. Additionally, a fire hydrant will be installed on Loras Boulevard. The Loras Boulevard intersection pavement will be replaced as part of this project due to the badly deteriorated pavement. 1 Construction of this project is being phased to minimize impacts to the traffic on North Grandview Avenue. Traffic on North Grandview Avenue will be maintained through the intersection during construction as much as possible. PROJECT SCHEDULE The schedule for the project is as follows: Initiate Public Bidding Process June 19, 2017 Publish Notice to Bidders, Advertise for Bids June 23, 2017 Publish Public Hearing Notice on Plans & Specs June 23, 2017 Public Hearing on Plans & Specs July 17, 2017 Receipt of Bid Proposals (Bid-Letting) July 20, 2017 Award Construction Contract August 7, 2017 Project Completion Date October 31, 2017 The project specifications also provide for a $1000/day cost of delay if not completed by October 31, 2017.
