Analysis

On August 2nd, 2016, the City Council approved traffic signal construction contract with Durable Specialties, Inc. for constructing three new traffic signals in the amount of $364,940.

 

Change order No. 1 with Durable Specialties, Inc. in the amount of $85,205 is for signal modification at Main and NW 4th Street.

 

As part of the signal modification at Main and NW 4th street, contractor will remove existing pedestrian signal and marked crosswalks that were installed for old fire station 1 administration building and provide provisions for pedestrian crossings at the intersection.  Contractor will construct barrier free ramps at the intersection of Main and NW 4th street for pedestrian crossings.  The proposed improvements include traffic signal equipment upgrade including replacement of existing traffic signal poles with black powder coated traffic signal poles.  The proposed improvements were not part of the F&G Eats restaurant incentive program to encourage restaurant owner into our downtown area.  These improvements are needed to improve traffic signal operations at Main and NW 4th street and provide provision for safe crossings of pedestrian at signalized intersection rather than mid-block.

 

Staff proposes to use Durable Specialties, Inc. to complete traffic signal modifications at Main and NW 4th street .  We propose a change order to the three traffic signal construction project in the amount of $ 85,205.00 and extend the contract period to December 31, 2017 for Durable Specialties, Inc. to complete traffic signal modifications at Main and NW 4th street.
