6.J.- Page 3of10 key intersections. The pilot also includes the installation of temporary speed tables at the Hopkins/King and Hopkins/Fulton intersections. Three bids were received for the Hopkins Traffic Calming Pilot Project on November 28, 2018. The table below summarizes the bid results. Bidder Bid Amount (Base Bid) Golden Bay Construction, Inc. $86,207.50 Guerra Construction Group $87,351.00 Sposeto Engineering, Inc. $141,227.50 Engineer's Estimate $60,000 - $80,000 The apparent low bid was determined by the Base Bid. The total base bid of $86,207.50 from Golden Bay Construction, Inc. is 8% higher than the engineer's estimate of $60,000-$80,000. Based on bids received, staff believes that the low bid is reasonable and recommends awarding the contract to Golden Bay Construction, Inc. In addition to the base bid work, staff recommends including two additional alternate work items that were included within the request for bids. The first additional work item includes of the installation of a pedestrian push-button activated rectangular rapid flashing beacon at the Hopkins/Lowell intersection, at the bid price of $5,334. The second additional work item includes changing the "Hopkins -Alameda connector" to be one-way, allowing only westbound Hopkins traffic to flow to northbound Alameda de las Pulgas. This part of the project also includes alterations to the existing triangular median at the Hopkins/Alameda intersection, which would allow for a dedicated left turn lane from southbound Alameda to eastbound Hopkins. The bid price for this work was $70,027. The total bid amount for the base bid plus two additional alternate work items is $161,568.50. In conjunction with the work done under this contract, City crews will be installing rubber curbing or other, similar materials to pilot the median islands and curb extensions ("bulb -outs"). Adjustments to the medians and a second rapid flashing beacon system resulting from the February 2019 community meeting will be accounted for within the City's scope of work. The pilot is anticipated to be installed beginning in June of 2019. Residents and other interested parties will be notified of the construction at least two weeks ahead of the work through the following methods: placement of mobile signs in the neighborhood; updates to the project website; NextDoor communications; direct email notification to those on the interested parties list; and a physical letter distributed to the surrounding area. Data collection and community input will be gathered in the fall after the pilot has been installed for at least two months and during a time when the local schools are in session. Data will be collected through the use of both paper and online survey tools. Staff will bring the data analysis and community feedback to the Complete Streets Advisory Committee (CSAC) after the conclusion of the pilot, along with any recommended changes due to community feedback. CSAC will then provide direction on whether or not to pursue design of the permanent installation of the proposed measures. If a permanent installation is recommended, the project will be brought to the City Council prior to award of the contract for that work.
