INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolution provides for the acceptance of the contract for the Loras
Boulevard Traffic Signalization Replacement Project.
BACKGROUND
This project provides for the standardization of mastarm-mounted signals along the
Loras corridor: Bluff and 14th Streets, Locust and 14th Streets, Main and 14th Streets,
and Iowa and 14th Streets. The project included pre-emption capabilities and battery
backup systems. The project has been expanded from its original scope to include
sidewalk ramp improvements, a fiber optic conduit inner-connect between the signals
and some additional roadway pavement improvements near the intersections. New
traffic controller equipment and mast-arms were purchased by the City for the project to
eliminate the long lead time in ordering.

Portzen Construction, Inc. of Dubuque, Iowa, in the final contract amount of
$289,081.02
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that the City Council accept the improvements and establish the final
contract at $289,081.02
