SUBJECT: Nowata Street Reconstruction Project
Fiscal Year 2006 Street Construction Program
INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolutions authorize the award of the construction contract for the
Nowata Street Reconstruction Project.
BACKGROUND
The Nowata Street Reconstruction Project will provide for the complete reconstruction
of all underground utilities, roadway sub-base and mainline concrete pavement from
University Avenue and Loras Boulevard.
Currently Nowata Street is 27 -foot wide and allows for parking on the east side of the
street while the proposed improvements incorporate a 37 -foot wide roadway which will
accommodate parking on both sides of the street. The additional parking will provide
alternate parking options for users of the adjacent Allison-Henderson Park and should
improve parking congestion concerns for local residents.
Incorporated in the design are traffic-calming measures which include two roadway
bump-outs at both the University Avenue and Loras Boulevard intersections. The
bump-out design reduces the street width from 37-feet to 31-feet at both ends of the
project which is designed to aid in the reduction of traffic speeds.
The storm sewer system will be reconstructed to incorporate larger capacity storm water
intakes with new 15-inch diameter sewer pipe which will improve the storm water
conveyance in the area.
The existing sanitary sewer system will be completely upgraded to include a new 8-inch
mainline sewer; the reconstruction of deteriorated brick manholes; and the replacement
of all private sanitary sewer laterals. The cost for the individual sanitary sewer lateral
replacements will be assessed to each respective private property owner.
The watermain system is scheduled for complete reconstruction which will include new
main line water service, valves and fire hydrants.
The project will also provide for the installation of fiber optics and telecommunications
conduit infrastructure and the complete reconstruction of the existing pedestrian
sidewalks along the east side of Nowata Street between University Avenue and Loras
Boulevard. New sidewalk will be constructed along the Allison-Henderson Park side.
