REPORT I.~A , '"Joth eHonorableM~yorandCityC Dun ci I FromtheCi Mana er August 28,2000 Subject Task Order No.1 - CCS Planning and Engineering, Inc. Recommendation Approve Task Order No.1 with CCS Planning and Engineering, Inc. for an additional expenditure to their contract for Consulting Engineering Design Services for the Redwood Shores Street System Improvements Project, in an amount not to exceed $70,870. Background On May 3, 1999, the City Council approved an agreement with the CCS Planning and Engineering, Inc. for Consulting Engineering Design Services for the design of street improvements at the following intersections: ~ Marine Parkway at Twin Dolphin Parkway ~ Marine Parkway at Bridge Parkway ~ Redwood Shores Parkway and Bridge Parkway The initial scope of work was derived from a traffic study done by Brian Kangas Foulk, a consulting engineering firm in Redwood City. The study was done beginning in 1996, in cooperation with the Cities of Belmont and San Carlos. The final report was issued in April of 1998. This study relied on projected developments along with traditional traffic generating models. At the time of the study, the size and potential of development of some of the parcels in Redwood Shores were still unsettled. The study took the conservative approach of assuming the maximum traffic generating potential to formulate the recommended improvements. The typical improvements recommended were: ~ adding left or right turn lanes; ~ lengthening of turn lane pockets; ~ relocation of median to accommodate turn lanes; ~ removal of traffic signal poles located in the median; ~ remediating drainage problems; ~ landscape/irrigation; and the biggest cost item, ~ widening of roadways to accommodate new turn lanes. The estimated construction cost of the original scope of road work was $2.45 million and the consulting contract was for $275,975. .." .._~_. .., '---""T-'--- .
