SUBJECT: Star Brewery Drive Construction Project
CIP 7001014
INTRODUCTION
The enclosed resolution authorizes the award of the construction contract for the Star
Brewery Drive Construction Project.
DISCUSSION
In an effort to improve access from the Port of Dubuque main campus to the Historic
Shot Tower area and to maximize the developable land area adjacent to the Star
Brewery property, staff has been working with both the Brewery Developer and McGraw
Hill on the improvement plans for the new construction of Star Brewery Drive.
The Star Brewery Drive Construction Project will provide for the construction of a new
25-foot wide concrete roadway extension, north of the existing Bell Street on a new
alignment to the north-east, parallel to the existing railroad tracks and adjacent to the
Star Brewery property. Star Brewery Drive as proposed will extend to the north side of
the train bridge underpass and will terminate at 7th and Commercial Street.
The project streetscape enhancement will compliment the existing Bell Street corridor
with the continuation of the decorative concrete sidewalk, decorative street lighting and
landscape plantings along the new section of roadway.
At the northerly intersection of Bell Street and Star Brewery Drive, a cul-de-sac will be
constructed which will allow larger type vehicles, such as semi-trailers, buses and
emergency vehicles adequate space to turn around.
Due to the height and width restrictions of the train bridge underpass, low clearance
warning signage will be placed at the Bell Street /Star Brewery Drive cul-de-sac to
advise larger type vehicles that they can not use Star Brewery Drive.
Star Brewery Drive as proposed will allow two-way traffic operations up to the train
bridge underpass, at which point drivers will need to yield and alternate vehicles as they
pass through the train bridge underpass. During special events, Star Brewery Drive
could be limited to one-way traffic north bound to facilitate traffic exiting the Port area.
On the north side of the train bridge, there will be directional signage placed to direct
vehicles west on 7th and Commercial Street to the downtown area.
BID RESULTS
One valid bid proposal was received on June 3, 2007, which was submitted by Portzen
Construction, Inc. of Dubuque, Iowa in the bid amount of $529,673.60. This amount is
0.1 % under the engineer's estimate of probable cost. It should be noted that a second
bid proposal was submitted; however the bid was disqualified because the bidder did
not provide the proper bid bond.
REVISED PROJECT SCHEDULE
During the bidding phase, several contractors expressed concerns with the aggressive
project schedule and the ability to complete the electrical work, irrigation and
landscaping by the specified completion date. As a result, a revised project schedule
was issued prior to the bid letting. The revised project schedule is as follows:
Phase 1:
The contractor shall have the proposed sanitary sewer, storm sewer and water
underground utility improvements completed by Friday September 21St, 2007. All
concrete pavement, HMA pavement, concrete driveways and concrete sidewalk
shall be completed by Friday September 21St, 2007.
Phase 2:
The contractor shall have the lighting, irrigation and landscaping completed by
Friday October 19th, 2007.
