2 | QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE
2 City of Dublin, Civil Engineering and Surveying Services BKF’s reference projects and other recent and similar experience demonstrate our firm’s comprehensive knowledge of developing, processing and delivering on-call public works projects on time and within budget. The project experience examples and sample PS&E documents (submitted separately electronically) are a testimony of BKF’s wealth of experience in providing thorough and high quality documents and accurate cost estimation. All of our personnel listed herein have extensive experience in working on projects of similar scope and complexity as the City’s projects.
The City of Dublin, along with Livermore and Alameda County, proposed to extend Dublin Boulevard to North Canyons Parkway.
BKF led the preliminary design, prepared CEQA and NEPA
documents, worked with the Alameda CTC to reallocate earmarked federal funds and is currently preparing the PS&E as prime on this marquee project. The project involves constructing a new 1.7-mile roadway with 4-6 lanes, sidewalks, protected Calss I Trail, Class IV bike lanes, six protected intersections, transit stops, and a new bridge structure. BKF is currently providing final design services for Alameda CTC, with a diverse subconsultant team. Design is anticipated to complete in 2025, with construction in 2026.
BKF was hired to develop and design street resurfacing
improvements along Dublin Boulevard and Tassajara Road. The project includes project management, field survey and mapping, right-of-way impacts and acquisition, civil design, cross-slope correction, drainage design, hydraulic, storm water, traffic signals, lighting, utility coordination and relocation, right of way acquisition, and cost estimating services. The plan includes a 2-inch overlay, with specific areas receiving dig-out repairs, grinding, alongside installing buffered green bike lanes. Traffic signal modifications and ADA improvements were also made. BKF enhanced roadway safety and usability by performing site investigations and implementing survey 3D scanning for accurate depiction of existing conditions.
BKF’s first task order under the City’s on-call contract involves the widening of Tassajara Road between North Dublin Ranch Drive and Quarry Lane School. The project includes widening Tassajara Road to a four-lane arterial, integrating Class IV bike lanes, transit stops, ADA ramps/sidewalks, landscaped median and stormwater treatment areas. BKF is managing all aspects of the project and subconsultant team, providing civil/survey services, structural, hydraulic analysis, storm water quality/green infrastructure, and lighting. BKF is also responsible for completing the utility coordination and agreements and right of way process. The City has extended the limits to the north, and the project improvements include the roadway pavement rehabilitation and restriping of the roadway, including replacing Class II bike lane with the continued Class IV separated bikeway proposed in the gap closure segment.

2 | QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE
3 City of Dublin, Civil Engineering and Surveying Services The Vasco Road in the City of Livermore is a major commuter route that experiences operational deficiencies at various locations, resulting in significant traffic delays. The City has prioritized relieving local/regional congestion with the future Valley Link Rail project proposed to operate within the median of I-580 to connect with BART. BKF was retained by the City to complete the PID, PA&ED and PS&E phases, which include traffic operations through interchange modifications, ramp/lane reconfigurations, intersection control solutions, and ramp/queue storage enhancements. The project also focuses on Caltrans complete streets and active transportation improvements, including the addition of a Class IV bikeway, transit accommodations, and improved corridor pedestrian/sidewalk improvements.
The flooding resulting from the Arroyo Las Positos Creek flows overbank on the golf course frequently damaging the golf course green. As a result, the City requested assistance through the FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP). FEMA identified the LPGC Creek capacity improvements to meet HMGP requirements and awarded the City up to one million dollars for construction.
Based on this funding, the City contracted with BKF to evaluate alternatives that will provide the maximum flood protection within the available construction budget while meeting the HMGP schedule for construction in 2021. The City requested t to complete the Scope of Service within eight weeks from Notice to Proceed.
BKF assisted with efforts to stabilize the area, protect property, and safeguard the traveling public in preparing a detailed topographic and habitat survey to assist with the flood control project that fit the available budget of $1.6M for construction, mitigation and conservation banks payment.
The City of Los Altos awarded BKF the On-call contract which included various design and on-call services, bird nesting surveys, staff augmentation, and construction management. As part of the on-call services, the BKF team provided construction management services for the Fremont Avenue Pavement Rehabilitation Project.
The project included the repair of the Fremont Avenue roadway surface from Grant Road to Stevens Creek Bridge. Repairs consisted of striping removal, 6” thick asphalt concrete pavement repairs (mill & plug), cold in-place recycling (CIR), with thin HMA overlay, and re- striping for safer bike lanes. The City prepared a digout schedule for pavement repairs along Fremont Avenue and implemented CIR as a bid alternative which was granted to the contractor based on the lower bids. This project shows BKF’s familiarity with CIR pavement design under construction and the various complexities and issues that are consistent with CIR projects.

6,8 | APPROACH & SUBCONSTRUCTED SERVICES
City of Dublin, Civil Engineering and Surveying Services 8 Understanding
It is BKF’s understanding that the City of Dublin is actively inviting Statement of Qualifications for professional on-call civil engineering and surveying services for multiple small to medium- sized capital projects over the next three years. In any given year, BKF manages over 30 On-call contracts. Our staffing plan, division of roles, and project experience demonstrates that BKF has the commitment of staff resources to complete your projects on schedule and within budget. Given our immediate resources in Pleasanton, the work retained under the agreement with the City will not impact our current or future demands of our team. We have a thorough approach that gets projects moving quickly and we are comfortable with the fast response that is required by project task order requests.
Approach
A comprehensive project management program is a necessary component of a successful collaboration between design partners and Agencies. When we initially receive a new Task Order, Jaggi Bhandal, Project Manager will review material provided by the City and establish job tasks necessary to proceed with the project and build the appropriate team. Through preliminary discussions with the City, and our subconsultants, a detailed scope of work will be developed which could include tasks related to civil design, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, or pavement management. The following is a summary of BKF’s proven project management and implementation approach, which will be catered to specific requirements of projects and the City’s requests:
RESPONSE TIMES
• Emer gency Support: Within 4 hours of a City request
•
On-Call Scope o
f Work: Within 48 hours of contact
•
Design Ser
vices: Within 4 weeks of notice to proceed
•
Communication:
Continual throughout
4-48-4
DEFINE SCOPE, SCHEDULE & BUDGET
Once a task order request is issued for a specific project, BKF will promptly discuss the requirements of the work with the City to verify assumptions and the level of effort requested. We will determine the timeliest and most cost-effective approach to complete the scope of work.
DETERMINE METHODOLOGY
Based on each project, and its site requirements, we will select the most suitable and cost- efficient methodology for completing a project.
ASSIGN THE APPROPRIATE STAFF
Jaggi Bhandal, PE, LEED AP , Project Manager, will assign staff based on the specific task requirements. While all of our staff members are highly experienced and qualified, some have specialized expertise or specific experience that would aid in reducing the overall hours needed to perform a specific task. BKF has the resources to assign highly experienced design teams to each City project.
SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT
Project scheduling is essential to the successful completion of our projects. Utilizing project management techniques, we collaborate, track, and maintain contract, correspondence, submittals, progress billings, change orders, and close out documents. We believe that a successful journey always starts with a complete roadmap. 206

City of Dublin, Public Works Department
Attn: Julius Pickney, Management Analyst II
RE: Request for Qualifications – On‐Call Civil Engineering and Surveying Services Dear Julius Pickney,
As the City of Dublin (City) focuses on the delivery of your Capital Improvement Program (CIP), the need to improve and maintain existing infrastructure is critical. City staff is in the midst of delivering the 2020-2025 Year CIP with a budget of $90.9M with 54% of the budget earmarked for streets, 33% for parks, and 13% for general use. It takes a team of talented, trusted, and resourceful staff; consultants; vendors; and contractors to meet this commitment. Consor can deliver effectively when called upon, which is demonstrated by the fact that 99% of our work is for public agencies like the City of Dublin.

On-Call Services with Walnut Creek
Since 2016, Consor has been
developing Ygnacio
Valley Road pavement
improvements over
three phases of work.
The third phase will
be completed this
year. Elements of
the $3 million project
include major pavement
rehabilitation and ADA compliant
features that include detailed stage construction and
detour plans on this heavily traveled, six-lane major
arterial. In 2014, we completed HBP (Federal Highway
Bridge Program) preliminary design and funding
applications for the City’s structurally deficient bridges (including Las Trampas Creek Bridge Replacement). We
recently completed Retrofit plans to strengthen the Tice Creek Timber short span bridge on Castle Hill Road. Our services also included design and inspection of traffic signals, storm drain facilities, and utility coordination.
Our staff understands that the work approach involved
in an on-call program is very different from a project- specific contract. Under an on-call contract, a project task order may be comparatively small but no less
important to your community, so an efficient use of
resources is important to keeping a project on track and within budget. Another type of task assignment may
be to complete project tasks already started by City
staff or other consultants or provide staff augmentation services. Based on our past experience, we know
how to integrate into a project with a short lead time, assign the appropriate staff, and complete the task
successfully.
I found [Consor] to be very responsive and helpful,
proposing workable solutions to difficult design
challenges. There were challenging drainage issues
with the project, as well as the need to work around
several existing utilities within the project area.
The [Consor] team provided practical solutions to
address each situation.”

TERM OF CONTRACT: 2021 - 2023
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The Livermore 2021 street resurfacing and slurry seal projects consist of roadway surface improvements on various City arterials and residential streets. Segments of 25 streets are slated for pavement surface treatments, along with sections of curb and gutter repair, the design of 200 ADA-compliant curb ramps adjacent to the street surface Improvements, and addition of bicycle facilities. The design required plan view sheets for each street location, construction detail sheets covering the curb ramp designs and pavement delineation plans which incorporated adding multiple bicycle facilities. Buffered bicycle lanes and Class IV bike lanes separated by floating parking islands were some of the bicycle facility upgrades incorporated into the design of these pavement projects. Drainage design work was included in areas with poor drainage, connecting to existing drainage systems using new drainage inlets and pipe lengths running beneath City streets.

TERM OF CONTRACT: 2017 - Present
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This HBP Bridge replacement project is a proving ground for finding the right balance of constraints in a heavily congested urbanized area. The site has nearby historical properties, nearby businesses and restaurants, cultural resource concerns, hazardous materials in the groundwater, and is heavily used by vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians.
The Consor team has cleared both CEQA and NEPA environmental phases to replace the century-old bridge with a $5 million, two-span PC/PS voided concrete slab with large diameter CIDH piles. Roadway horizontal and vertical profile constraints limit the hydraulic capacity of the County Flood Control channel. The approach roadway at all four corners of the bridge requires intensive layout to meet ADA requirements and existing site constraints.
There are multiple on-site utilities which need to be relocated and Consor has adopted an innovative solution by adding a separate pedestrian bridge to carry utilities and serve pedestrians during existing bridge demolition. The Consor Team has coordinated their efforts with the City, permitting agencies, and Caltrans to streamline construction and limit the effect to local business and the traveling public. The Consor Team is currently working with owners to relocate eight utilities onto the new pedestrian bridge to allow for construction of the replacement bridge under full road closure.

TERM OF CONTRACT: 2/2022 - Present
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Consor is developing complete PS&E for this project with the Contra Costa County Public Works Department to implement two bridge replacements on Morgan Territory Road over Marsh Creek located at Post Mile 5.0 and 5.2, approximately 10 miles southeast of Clayton. Morgan Territory Road is a single lane, low-volume, minor collector in rural Contra Costa County. The land uses adjacent to the project site are agricultural and parks/open space. Consor is developing this design on a fast-paced schedule due to the poor condition of the existing bridges, which only worsened during 2023 storm events. The project is currently locally funded with aspirations for reimbursement from FEMA. The Consor team has been working diligently to keep this project on schedule to construct the replacement bridges starting in 2025. The project is currently in the right-of-way and permitting phase. 231

6. Approach
Understanding On-Call Capital Project Contracts
Our team’s approach to providing services for assignments under an on-call program is different from those we provide for stand-alone projects. We understand that each task order may be different. In some cases the City may require us to design a project in a turn-key fashion. Other times the City may want us to function as a continuation of your staff. Regardless of the approach for any task order, the City needs us to be responsive to you and your citizens’ needs. Quality and adherence to schedule and budget are a must.
Based on our experience, we know how to efficiently plan and execute parallel tasks with short lead times, assign appropriate staff, and complete the task successfully. Our experienced project manager, Rob Ferguson, will focus on scope, schedule, and cost using risk management tools to identify risks and mitigation plans to implement. The project team members will communicate regularly within team meetings/focus meetings as led by the project manager to ensure action items are responded to and deliverables meet the schedule and quality requirements. In addition, federal funding compliance milestones and activities will be included in the schedule and monitored to ensure timely actions and approvals are taken.
Our team has a proven track record of completing projects on time, with excellent quality, and within budget.
We accomplish this by continuously monitoring progress and budget expenditures of our project team. Our approach to successful delivery on continuing services agreements is founded on:
Responsive Client
Service
Our successful history
delivering over 1,000 projects
with a broad range of technical
requirements has taught us the
importance of responsiveness
and client service in successful
delivery on the City’s on-call
services contract.
Team Continuity
& Collaboration
Work closely with City
staff to make sure that the
smaller projects typical of
on-call assignments achieve
the desired benefits and
provide the desired end
result.
Creative, Practical
Solutions
Whether a simple curb ramp
design, road widening or
storm damage repair project,
Consor is focused on delivering
creative, cost-effective, and
practical solutions to the
challenges faced by the City.
Attention to
Detail
Our strong focus on
the details allows us
to deliver high-quality
design and deliverables
on any size project on
time and budget.
Consor’s Approach to Project Delivery
Key elements of our approach include:
Scoping Projects Quickly and Accurately
Typically, for on-call contracts, we aim to respond
to an initial project request within 24 hours and
have a scope and budget ready for City review
within five calendar days.
Consistent Project Team
As a relationship-focused firm, we strive to maintain
consistency in staffing on projects to create project
efficiency and consistency in expectations. Project
Manager, Robert Ferguson, will serve as our single
point of contact on all task orders.
Stay on Schedule
A key component of successful performance for
on-call contracts is keeping the project on schedule
by engaging our deep, committed bench when
required.
Efficiency in Task Assignments
With an extensive portfolio of on-call contracts,
as well as a long history serving Local Agency Bay
Area clients, we understand what the City expects
and can provide that without multiple iterations
trying to figure things out.

Civil Engineering and Surveying Services | City of Dublin | April 2024 | 7 Adherence to Quality Control Procedures
The Consor team is quality-product oriented. We know that our continued success relies upon delivering high- quality products to our clients with attention paid to details. Quality control is not just a review of the final work product prior to its delivery to a client. Rather, true quality control is a commitment to a process of ongoing “critical eye” review and oversight throughout the project.
Quality control systems also need a continuous improvement process that strives to reduce or eliminate the cause for errors. This is achieved by assigning experienced personnel to key project roles and giving them the support, tools, and authority to provide a quality product and by maintaining a QC system with continuous improvement processes.
Project Management
Our project management approach is based on a successful model, resulting in the delivery of high-quality projects. Our proven management and administrative system enhance communication between City staff and their consultants, the Consor team, and key stakeholders. Our approach is simple: understand the task, communicate continuously, collaborate, develop feasible alternatives, obtain client concurrence on the alternative of highest value, coordinate as needed with stakeholders/third parties, ensure timely funding authorizations to achieve continuous progress and deliver a comprehensive project through construction closeout. Working within an on-call environment requires immediate responsiveness to meet required deadlines, having a deep bench of experienced staff, streamlining approval processes and driving critical tasks to completion. Our approach to successful task order completion engages experienced managerial and technical resources and proven best management practices, including:
9 Experienced staff that know the most efficient and effective methods to address task order needs
9 Current, in-depth knowledge of Caltrans and FHWA regulations, policies, procedures, and design standards to ensure funding compliance, facilitate internal reviews/approvals, and achieve favorable bids
9 Established procedures for developing “to the point” scopes of work, schedules, budgets, and implementing a simple but effective quality control process
9 Internal management controls, real time accounting, project management, and quality assurance that provide timely
information to ensure projects are kept on schedule and within budget with the highest quality of products
9 Availability of state-of-the-art software tools for the design, analysis, and presentation/visualization of projects
Our Principal-in-Charge, Russ Moore, brings 40 years of experience working in the public works arena. As a consultant, Russ has held staff augmentation positions for the cities of Mill Valley, Piedmont, El Cerrito, Vallejo, Concord, Half Moon Bay, and Milpitas, and for ACTC and Caltrain. Russ knows how to act quickly and focus on mobilizing our team for whatever tasks the County is looking to target, whether big or small and whether in a lead role or assisting County staff. We offer the County turn-key solutions to address your diverse project needs and facilitate delivery for each task assigned.

CIVIL ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING SERVICES | 5
CSW/ST2 understands that the tasks will vary and
that we will need to be flexible to best support
the City of Dublin. Based on our experience
providing on-call support to various agencies
throughout the Bay Area, we have the experience
and depth of resources to meet the City’s needs.
Once the City identifies a task, Robert Stevens
will coordinate with City staff to define the scope
of work and schedule, as well as determine the
timeliest and most cost-effective approach to
completing the work.
Our team’s approach to supporting the City of
Dublin focuses on these key elements:
COMPLETE AND GREEN STREETS Our team
has a strong portfolio in developing street
projects to balance the needs of pedestrians,
bicyclists, transit, and motorists. We are intimately
familiar with the conflicts that can originate
when travel lanes and parking are removed in
order to provide bicycle accommodations. Our
team is currently supporting the del Norte/
BART Complete Street project for the City of El
Cerrito. Our team often works with neighborhood
councils, community groups, and elected officials
to plan and develop such projects.
PAVEMENT, STORM, AND SEWER
REHABILITATION Often coupled with
implementation of a complete street is basic
infrastructure improvements. Our team has
implemented various pavement and underground
pipeline rehabilitation strategies to optimize cost
and the lifespan of a project. For the recently
completed $20 million dollar streetscape
enhancement along Third Street in downtown
San Rafael, our team successfully coordinated
sanitary sewer upgrades and an underground
culvert repair, as well undergrounding with PG&E,
in conjunction with the design and construction
phasing of the above ground roadway
improvements.
GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE We have planned
and implemented green infrastructure for
local agencies including rain gardens, pervious
pavements, and storm water harvesting. Our team
We have two survey teams capable of both traditional and drone- based data acquisition methods. Pictured here is a survey of the Strawberry Creek culvert in Berkeley to isolate its location.
We support a array of complete streets enhancements including the recently completed Class 4 bikeway along Fourth Street in San Rafael.
OUR APPROACH
243
6 | CITY OF DUBLIN
can prepare storm drainage studies encompassing
local areas, cities and regions. We help clients
respond to public agency requirements, such
as the National Pollution Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES). We also prepare and/or provide
consultation on Storm Water Pollution Prevention
Plans (SWPPP) and Erosion Control Plans.
DEVELOPMENT REVIEW SUPPORT Our team
has provided engineering technical support to the
Richmond Planning Department for Point Molate,
Campus Bay, Terminal 1, and other developments
throughout Richmond. This has included reviews
of documents for conformance to City standards,
C.3 requirements, and the Subdivision Map
Act. We have prepared Conditions of Approval
and supported staff and the Design Review,
Planning Commission, and City Council for project
approval. We are currently providing private
development review services to the Cities of Napa
and San Leandro, and have been providing map
checking and peer review services to the County
of Marin since 2018.
We will provide the City of Dublin with a
responsive team of registered professionals who
strive to uphold City and County expectations,
will work with City Staff to ensure our engineers
and surveyors provide uniform results consistent
with City and County standards in a timely and
efficient manner, and are prepared to respond to
the City’s needs within 24 hours providing plan
checking and map review services on an on-call
basis.
PARKS AND RECREATION We have supported
Parks departments and other design consultants
in improving parks facilities in Richmond, San
Pablo, Marin County, and San Mateo County over
the last five years. This has included upgrades
to utility systems, modifications to lighting,
bathroom replacements, and court resurfacing.
We are currently leading the effort to renovate
Boorman Park. This effort includes leading the
coordination of funding, community outreach,
design, and permitting process. The park is
funded by a $4.165 million Proposition 68 grant.
When complete, the park will feature sports fields,
community gathering areas, and playgrounds.
FUNDING AND GRANTS We support the City
in securing grant funds from State and Federal
Our team has supported Richmond, San Rafael, and San Pablo in developing fiber optic infrastructure to support ITS, City communi - cations, and public internet.
OUR APPROACH
244
CIVIL ENGINEERING AND SURVEYING SERVICES | 7
sources including providing project scopes,
cost estimates, and narratives. In addition, we
have managed the federal grant authorization
and reimbursement process for several capital
improvement projects for public agencies.
EMERGENCY RESPONSE Through the years,
we have provided emergency response services
to public agencies for various issues including
sinkhole repair, traffic signal repairs, drainage
system failures, fiber optic system outage, and the
recent landslide at Point Potrero. Typically, we can
respond to a City’s needs within two hours and
have contacts within the community to provide
emergency construction support.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH Our team
understands the diversity in the Contra Costa
County community, its various interest and
community groups and value these groups
having a voice in project planning. Thus, we
work with community groups and neighborhood
councils to plan projects and solicit feedback. We
have partnered with community groups to host
dinners to discuss projects. Our team not only
communicates in multiple languages, but uses
techniques to help community members visualize
project options using full-scale mock-ups.
SAMPLE WORK FLOW
In 2022, as part of our on-call contract with the
City of Berkeley, we prepared the following scope
of services to support an extension of a pathway.
This project is currently in bidding.
In support of the City of Berkeley and the Berkeley
Path Wanderers, we will develop the design
to extend the Upper Columbia Path about 200
feet from Queens Road to Columbia Circle. The
path will commence between 1409 and 1399
Queens Road on the lower end and extend up
the hill rising about 50 feet to Columbia Circle.
At Queens Road, the slope is nearly vertical, thus,
the pathway will require stairs as illustrated in the
sketch and photograph on the following page.
TASK 1 PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING
1 .1 PROJECT KICK -OFF Our team will meet
with City staff to review the project goals, our
initial findings, and develop the budget for the
base bid and potential alternatives.
1 .2 EXISTING CONDITIONS MAPPING Our
team will complete a limited field survey to define
features and elevations along the pathway.
1 .3 SOIL EVALUATION We will complete a field
exploration completing two borings to a depth of
about 5 feet. From the samples collected, we will
determine the engineering properties of the soil
for use in the design of retaining walls.
1 .4 PRELIMINARY DESIGN (30%) We will
prepare two options for a staircase to serve Upper
Columbia Pathway that conforms to the existing
conditions limiting excavation into the bedrock of
the Orinda formation. This task includes prepar-
ing the following documents: Pathway layout plan
and profile, sections, and stair details. Addition-
ally, we will prepare a rendering of the staircase
using sculpted and tinted concrete to imitate the
rock formation as well as an estimate of construc-
tion cost.
1 .5 CONTRACT MANAGEMENT CSW/ST2
OUR APPROACH
245
8 | CITY OF DUBLIN
will be responsible for overall management of
our design team related to schedule, budget, and
quality control. During this phase, we plan on two
meetings with staff and one with the neighbor -
hood to review the options.
TASK 2 FINAL PLANS
2 .1 PREPARE 60% DOCUMENTS The team will
prepare the following documents:
A. Plans that include Title Sheet, Clearing and
Grubbing, Pathway Plan and Profile, Stair-
case Structural Details, and Erosion Control
Plans.
B. Specifications, bid schedule, and cost esti-
mate
2 .2 UTILITY COORDINATION The overhead
lines and underground gas line may require reloca-
tion or adjustment to accommodate the pathway.
Our team will support staff in coordination with the
utility owners to adjust their facilities.
2 .3 FINAL SUBMITTAL We will compile final
documents for use in bidding.
2 .4 CONTRACT MANAGEMENT We will
complete contract management services as
defined in Task 1.5. In this task, we anticipate up
to two (2) meetings with staff.

APPROACH
The following are descriptions of the tasks that would be part of a typical City CIP Project:
Schedule of Work
Following our initial kick-off project meeting with the City, Kimley-Horn prepares a project schedule, which is shared with the City and other stakeholders, as appropriate, for consideration of further discussion or adjustment, if necessary. Our internal MIS allows our project managers to monitor the progress of projects on a bi-weekly basis so that “mid-course corrections” can be made as the needs of the project change.
Pre-Design
Depending on the complexity of the project, a typical design process may entail submittal of a pre-design concept, report, or memo that establishes and memorializes the basis of the impending work. We would provide a feasibility level opinion of probable cost (OPC) at this stage to validate the City’s construction cost estimates and budget.
Conduct Field Work and Data Gathering
A crucial part of our design process is getting our technical experts in the field to observe and gather detailed field information that is essential to the design and be as informed as possible on the issues associated with every project and to visualize potential improvements in a real-world setting.
Meetings and Communication
Kimley-Horn holds weekly internal milestone meetings with our staff to discuss project schedules, deadlines, and impending staff workloads. Our weekly goal is to keep the project schedules at the forefront so deadlines are anticipated throughout the project. If necessary, we will bring in additional staff resources from other offices, particularly at the technical level.
Environmental Clearance and Permitting
Should environmental services be needed, we will engage our in-house environmental group to prepare CEQA documentation. If the project is federally funded, we will work with Caltrans Local Assistance to complete the Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) form, schedule a field meeting, and ultimately get Caltrans approval on the PES. The PES determines the necessary studies, and once approved by Caltrans, we would work to perform the needed field work and prepare technical studies in support of NEPA. Having both the engineering and environmental services within Kimley-Horn provides with City with an additional benefit, as we routinely work together on local agency projects and understand when trade-offs are needed in the design to minimize or eliminate an environmental impact.
Project Deliverables
Deliverables are submitted to the City (and stakeholders as needed) based on the project schedule.
Depending on the project’s complexity, these deliverables are typically associated with submittal stages, particularly for design projects (e.g., 35%, 65%, 90% and 100% design stages). A preliminary engineer’s estimate for construction would accompany each submittal to support the project budget and addr ess
alternatives if cost problems are identified.
Depending on the type of project, a wide variety of different plan sheets may be necessary. Plan sheets that could be prepared for a typical roadway project include: title sheet, general notes, key map, horizontal control, typical sections, demolition plans, plan and profile, construction details, curb return profiles, drainage plan and profile, utility plans and details, erosion control plans, traffic control and construction staging plans, and signing and striping.
275
GMOC82018.2024
10 City of Dublin | Civil Engineering and Surveying Services Specifications
Our team will develop project technical specifications, as needed, to accompany projects prepared for contractor construction. We are experts in writing specifications, including writing Caltrans-based specifications. In addition, we have also helped numerous agencies rewrite their front end (boilerplate) specifications to be in compliance with federal regulations.
Preliminary and Final Design
Typical preliminary and final design stages would be assumed for most engineering design projects, with typical design stages/phases of 35%, 65%, 95%, and 100%. Deliverables are submitted to the City (and stakeholders as needed) based on the project schedule. Depending on the project’s complexity, these deliverables are typically associated with submittal stages, particularly for design projects. An engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost would accompany each submittal to support the project budget and address alternatives if cost problems are identified. Technical specifications would be developed at 65% with changes tracked, and then refined at 95% and 100%.
Construction Phase
We have extensive experience supporting public agencies through the bid and construction phase of the project. We are committed to seeing projects through to a successful completion. We can respond to bidder or contractor Requests for Information regarding plan interpretation or field condition issues.
Kimley-Horn can also provide regularly scheduled field visits to review the advancement of field work relative to the intent of the project documents. Our proximity allows us to be available to attend construction field meetings on short notice.
Upon notice to proceed, the appropriate staff will be assigned by Akash to accomplish the task within the agreed upon timeframe. One of the advantages that our team provides is the ability to assign the right staff to each task. Akash can draw from a multitude of disciplines and resources to complete each assignment—whether the task is relatively minor, requiring only a few people in a single discipline, or a complicated task requiring numerous people and multiple disciplines. Task leads will work closely with Akash to get the project completed on time and on schedule.

ADDITIONAL PROJECTS
CITY OF UNION CITY, UNION CITY BOULEVARD BIKE LANE IMPROVEMENTS UNION CITY, CA Kimley-Horn is currently leading the PS&E design of the Union City Boulevard Bike Lane Improvements project. This project seeks to modify about a 2-mile stretch of Union City Boulevard from the Union City limit to Smith Street, adding Class II buffered bicycle lanes in both directions, with Class IV protected bicycle lanes at certain segments within the corridor limits. Additionally, a Class I multi-use path is being designed and implemented on the west side of the corridor, between Eastin Drive and Delaine Eastin Elementary School. As part of our work, a portion of the existing median that consists of decomposed granite will be removed and the traffic lanes shifted to accommodate new bicycle lanes. Additional work we have completed includes safety improvements, operational improvements, intersection modifications, bulb-outs, median landscaping, stormwater treatment facilities, modifications to the existing storm drain system, lighting modifications, traffic signal modifications, fiber-optic improvements, environmental clearance, and sidewalk reconstruction along Union City Boulevard within the corridor limits. This project recently went to bid and was awarded, with an approximate construction contract value of $17 million and a construction start time of March 2024.
CITY OF OAKLAND, EAST 12TH BIKEWAYS (35TH AVENUE TO INTERNATIONAL BOULEVARD)
OAKLAND, CA
Kimley-Horn partnered with the City of Oakland to design bicycle facilities along East 12th Street between the Fruitvale BART station and International Boulevard. Our staff designed upgrades to existing bicycle lanes and designed a new contra-flow one-way cycle track and parking protected bicycle lanes with the goal of closing a key bicycle gap in the area. In addition to bicycle lane improvements, this project enhanced pedestrian accessibility and infrastructure through traffic circle and traffic calming measures and pavement enhancements. Improvements include removing abandoned railroad tracks along the corridor, implementing new signage and striping, improving traffic signal connection for pedestrians and bicycles, and upgrading City drainage inlets. As of the end of 2023, the design is complete, and construction is anticipated to take place in Summer 2024.
CITY OF OAKLAND, 73RD AVENUE ACTIVE CONNECTIONS TO TRANSIT
OAKLAND, CA
Kimley-Horn is currently in the preliminary design phase of this critical active transportation project, which will provide bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, protected intersections, bus boarding islands, geometric improvements, traffic signal modifications, RRFBs, signing and striping, pedestrian and street lighting, pavement engineering, green infrastructure, stormwater facilities, and utility relocation. Once the project is constructed, it will provide connections for an underserved East Oakland community to Coliseum BART and an AC Transit hub at Eastmont Mall. The project is considering several alternatives including buffered bicycle lanes, a shared bikeway frontage road (example: N 10th Street in City of San Jose), and center-running Class I bikeway in the median. Once the preferred alternative is selected, we will provide complete design services for the PS&E phase.
CITY OF ALAMEDA, 2024 PAVEMENT REHABILITATION PROJECT (PHASE 42)
ALAMEDA, CA
This pavement rehabilitation project is a task order issued under Kimley-Horn’s On-Call Complete Streets Engineering Services contract with the City of Alameda. The project focuses on the central part of the City, namely the area between Grand Street and High Street, protecting street surfaces and improving stormwater surface drainage and mobility for all users. In addition to providing pavement r ehabilitation
design services, we are providing the design for ADA upgrades and installation of pavement markings 277
GMOC82018.2024

ACTC, SAN PABLO AVENUE MULTIMODAL CORRIDOR PROJECT OAKLAND, CA San Pablo Avenue is a regionally significant corridor spanning the East Bay and serves as a principal transportation artery, a transit trunk line, and a main street. It experiences significant congestion, safety hazards, and network inefficiencies. Kimley-Horn is leading a consultant team and working with ACTC, which first developed a plan that established the long-term vision and identified near-term impr ovements to enhance corridor effectiveness for all users.
The corridor study (Phase 1) identified a range of multimodal improvements to enhance the thr oughput, connectivity, sustainability, and safety of the 14-mile corridor and included coordination amongst seven cities across two counties and two transit operators as well as Caltrans. Phase 1 included identification of near-term safety and circulation improvements, as well as longer-term improvements, such as bus rapid transit (BRT) and enhanced bicycle facilities. Kimley-Horn led the conceptual engineering, transit planning, ITS and technology evaluations, stakeholder engagement, project delivery , and technical and
operations analysis elements of the project.r Phase 2 of the project in Alameda City includes planning, environmental clearance, and final design of three projects: 1) dedicated bus, protected bike lanes and other safety enhancements for a 3-mile segment through three cities; 2) safety treatments and bus reliability enhancements for an adjacent three miles through two cities; and 3) parallel bike improvements on a network of roadways parallel to and connecting to San Pablo Avenue across three cities.
Kimley-Horn is leading all planning and design efforts, agency coordination, managing outreach activities, and performing overall project management. Outreach efforts have included community workshops, public presentations, online surveys, focus groups, and intercept surveys. For Phase 2 efforts within Contra Costa City, Kimley-Horn evaluated alternatives to improve bicycle, pedestrian, and transit mobility along the corridor given the specific opportunities and geometric challenges within the three cities in the study area. Kimley-Horn worked closely with West Contra Costa Transportation Advisory Committee (WCCTAC), CCTA, AC Transit, and each of the three jurisdictions (including the City of San Pablo) to tailor alternatives to fit local needs.
CITY OF SUNNYVALE, SRTS IMPROVEMENTS ON MAUDE AND SUNNYVALE AVENUES
SUNNYVALE, CA
Kimley-Horn completed concept development, environmental clearance, and preliminary and final design efforts for the City of Sunnyvale’s SRTS improvements along Maude Avenue and Sunnyvale Avenue around Bishop Elementary School. The improvements consisted of modifications to Maude Avenue/Mathilda Avenue and Maude Avenue/Borregas Avenue to remove porkchop islands and make the intersections safer for pedestrians. They also consisted of replacement of on-str eet parking with buffered bicycle lanes on Sunnyvale Avenue. As part of the effort, we developed concepts, assessed geometric feasibility, analyzed traffic and parking conditions, and completed environmental clearance documentation through Caltrans. The planning phase was completed within six months to meet the City of Sunnyvale’s grant funding schedule requirements. We subsequently supported the City of Sunnyvale in a public engagement process for this project. The project was approved to advance into design by the City Council in Fall 2021, and we were selected by the City of Sunnyvale to complete the project’s design. The design was completed in Summer 2022 and is currently in construction.
CITY OF SUNNYVALE, SNAIL NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENTS
SUNNYVALE, CA
As a subconsultant on this project, Kimley-Horn provided civil and traffic engineering services for pedestrian safety improvements at various locations throughout the SNAIL neighborhood. Our work included the design of 25 accessible curb ramps, 17 curb extensions, a raised crosswalk, and storm 278
GMOC82018.2024
13 City of Dublin | Civil Engineering and Surveying Services drain system upgrades. Our traffic engineering work included speed feedback signs near school zones, bicycle route signage and striping, signal modifications, and a new pedestrian hybrid beacon. Lastly, we led the environmental clearance services for both CEQA and NEPA compliance documentation. Due to grant funding constraints, we successfully partnered with the City of Sunnyvale and the prime consultant to develop and execute a project schedule that resulted in the completion of the design in six months to meet the request for funding authorization deadline. The design phase was completed in July 2023, and the project is currently in construction.
TOWN OF LOS GATOS, WINCHESTER BOULEVARD COMPLETE STREETS AND QUICK-BUILD CLASS IV BIKE LANES
LOS GATOS, CA
Kimley-Horn supported the Town of Los Gatos in advancing a multimodal corridor study for a 2-mile stretch of Winchester Boulevard. The project goals included enhancing the safety, comfort, and connectivity of the corridor for all users, including bicycles, pedestrians, and transit users, while maintaining auto circulation. In the initial project phase, we assessed existing conditions and project needs, obtaining input from the community via an online survey. We then developed multiple project alternatives that closed sidewalk gaps, upgraded bicycle facilities to a protected Class IV, provided protected intersections and transit islands, and increased corridor permeability through new and safer pedestrian crossings. We also developed concepts and completed through 100% design a tactical quick-build project that aligned with grant funding received by the Town of Los Gatos. The project included the implementation of quick-build Class IV bicycle lanes along 1.3 miles of Winchester Boulevard. We worked with the Town of Los Gatos to overcome challenges relating to residential driveways, parking, and emergency access. We also supported the Town of Los Gatos through several rounds of community engagement, including hosting a virtual community meeting. We developed 35%, 90%, and 100% plans along with cost estimates.
COUNTY OF SAN MATEO, SANTA CRUZ AVENUE AND ALAMEDA DE LAS PULGAS CORRIDOR IMPROVEMENT PROJECT– BICYCLE AND SAFETY IMPROVEMENTS
SAN MATEO COUNTY, CA
Kimley-Horn supported the County of San Mateo in providing preliminary engineering services and is currently supporting them with final PS&E design services to develop a set of bicycle and pedestrian safety improvements along Alameda DeLas Pulgas/Santa Cruz Avenue, between Avy Avenue and Sand Hill Road. We prepared conceptual design plans and cost estimates for three alternatives, including the provisions of improved pedestrian and bicycle facilities and reconfiguration of the complex and auto-oriented “Y” intersection. We prepared VISSIM microsimulation models to analyze the proposed geometric and operational modifications to determine their effect on travel time, emissions, and queuing.
The project also included several meetings with the community task force, community meetings, and online engagement. Based upon the approved alternative from the conceptual phase, we have advanced the design into Final PS&E. The project improvements include road dieting, sidewalk widening, re-striping, bicycle and pedestrian safety enhancements, ADA curb ramp upgrades, bulb-outs, traffic signal modification, pavement rehabilitation, drainage improvements, environmental clearance, and other complete street elements. This project was a recipient of the Active Transportation Program Cycle 6 grant for construction funds, which was an effort that we supported. This project is currently in the final design stage, with an anticipated construction start time of Summer 2024. 279
