BACKGROUND At the meeting on January 6, 1993, the City Council directed that the plans and specifications for the Tierra Rejada Road Widening Project be revised and readied for public bid. DISCUSSION A. Project Design The plans and specifications are now complete. The current project now provides for the following: • A full four lane divided highway. • Bike lanes on both sides of the roadway. • All utilities will be relocated by each utility company per the City's schedule upon confirmation of contractor's construction schedule. • Full median improvements with concrete curbs and gutters from the end of the existing median located approximately 400 feet west of Spring Road to Moorpark Road. • Spring Road street improvements sufficient to allow for adequate transitions to full signalization improvements at the intersection of Spring Road and Tierra Rejada Road. trria6 Advertise Tierra Rejada Widening Project February 17, 1993 Page 2 • Temporary Asphalt curbs in the median at the future intersection of Science Drive. • Curb and gutter on the north side of Tierra Rejada Road west of Spring Road along the Embassy frontage. • Since Watt declined to fund construction of curb and gutter on the south side of Tierra Rejada Road along the frontage of that property, these improvements have been deleted from the project and replaced by drainage facilities sufficient to adequately convey storm flows. • Street lights to be constructed in manner consistent with the street lighting design to the west (See Section E below) . B. Utility Relocation The Engineer has conducted meetings with all utility company representatives. Currently, the utility companies are procuring materials and scheduling manpower to meet the anticipated schedule for the project. Upon the contractor's submittal of an approved construction schedule, the Engineer will provide the utility companies with confirmed dates for their respective relocations. The plans and specifications call for three phases of construction. At the end of each of these phases, the City's contractor will cease construction efforts to allow for the construction/relocation of certain portions of certain utilities prior to commencing the next phase of construction. C. Traffic Control Schedule I of the bid package calls for three Bid Alternates for different traffic control plans, which are described as follows: Alt. 'A' : Roadway open to two-way traffic at all times; Alt. 'B' : Complete roadway closure. The award of contract may be based on any one of these alternates. Subsequent to bid opening the cost/benefit of these alternatives will be evaluated. trwld6 Advertise Tierra Rejada Widening Project February 17, 1993 Page 3 D. Camrosa Water Line Schedule II of the bid package calls for a bid for the relocation of a water main owned by the Camrosa Water District. This work has been included in the bidding documents in accordance with provisions in a Settlement Agreement with the District. Subsequent to the receipt of bids, a determination will be made regarding the inclusion of this work in the City's Contract. If the work is not included, it will be done by the Camrosa Water District or their contractor. As you may recall, the provisions of the Settlement Agreement require the City to pay for the cost of said relocation up to a maximum amount of $90,000. E. Street Lights The plans and specifications call for the construction of street lighting conduits. The actual installation of street lights would be done by Southern California Edison at City cost. At the time of the writing of the this report, the actual cost of this installation had not been determined. The bidding documents also allow for the deletion of the street lighting conduits from the Scope of Work. A final recommendation on this element of the project will be provided with the bid results. F. City Council Review Plans and specifications for the subject project have been made available to the City Council under separate memo. One of the actions recommended below, is the approval of these documents. G. Fiscal Impact 1. Construction Cost Estimate: The Engineer's estimate for the construction of all the work contained in Schedule IA (with a traffic control plan requiring the roadway to be open to two-way traffic at all times) is $1.9 million. Total estimated construction cost for the relocation of the Camrosa Water District at waterline (Schedule II) has been estimated by the District to be $115,000. The total estimated cost for a Contract including both Bid Schedules would be slightly more than $2 million. trvid6 Advertise Tierra Rejada Widening Project February 17, 1993 Page 4 2.
