RE: Request for Proposals for Professional Consulting Services for Fax: 916. 858. 0643 Development of Project initiation( PID) for Roth Road and Mobile: 916337. 8981 Interstate 5 Interchange Project( CIP PS 1404) E- Mail: jramos@dokkenengineering. com Dear Mr. Abarca and Selection Committee:
As the City of Lathrop plans for future growth and accommodating the large amount of freight traffic in the ciry as well as in Manteca and within San Joaquin County, they are looking to take the next steps towards improving the critical Interstate 5( I- 5)/ Roth Road interchange. Within the City, the I- 5/ Roth Road interchange serves as a primary route for traffic coming to and from large warehouses, industrial, and logistics land uses. Additionally, it provides alternate access to developing land uses west of the interchange. To provide the necessary capacity in the project area, the City would like to implement improvements within the interchange to accompany other improvements along Roth Road and adjacent Harlan Road.
Dokken Engineering( Dokken) is excited to submit our proposal to provide all- inclusive engineering and environmental services to complete the Project Study Report- Project Development Support( PSR- PDS) for the I- 5/ Roth Road interchange. With our established understanding of the project from our work on the City' s Harlan Road Realignment project, we have assembled a team that is exceptionally qualified for this project in several important respects:
Extensive Project History Dokken has an unmatched understanding of the project objectives, constraints, stakeholder, and overall project having completed the Environmental Document and Precise Plan for the Harlan Road Realignment project and through current preparation of the construction plans, specifications, and estimate( PS& E) for that project. As part of the Harlan Road project, we understand the land use and current needs of Roth Road through and adjacent to the interchange.
Additionally, our team member DKS, has already analyzed the traffic needs of Roth Road at the interchange as part of their work with the San Joaquin Council of Governments( SJCOG) Roth Road Improvement Study. We recognize the interchange is an important component of the overall functionaliry of the region' s traffic and goods movement network. With this in- depth project history and understanding, our engineers and environmental planners have all the tools to immediately begin work on the PID phase with no learning curve, something other consultants do not have.
Familiar and Experienced Team Dokken strategically selects subconsultants for our projects to ensure that we have not only a balanced workload to provide our clients with exceptional service, but also that the staff has the experience and knowledge required of the project. The team selected for this project have the benefit of not only having the experience necessary but are also intimately familiar with the project area and Caltrans District 10. The familiarity begins with the leadership of the team who have been involved within the project area since the beginning of the Harlan Road project. Juann Ramos( Project Manager),) acqueline Lockhart( Project Engineer), and Jamie Formico( Right of Way Manager) have worked on the Harlan Road project through the Environmental Document and Precise Plan phase and now into PS& E. These project leaders have an unmatched and all- encompassing understanding of the project components and what it will take to bring this project through the PID phase and into the Project Approval and Environmental Document( PA& ED), and further onto construction. Additionally, having worked with the City on other projects, these leaders have the familiarity with City goals and procedures and this knowledge will help streamline the overall progression of the project and more efficiently move the project forward.

And, throughout the project progression, all our professional services comply with Caltrans, regulatory agencies, and federal requirements. Each project, specifically interchange projects, have different challenges, all of which has prepared our team and provided us the knowledge and approach to apply to this City project. Recent projects we have applied this experience and expertise on similar projects include:
o
Interstate 205/ Chrisman Road Interchange for the City of Tracy o State Route 65/ South Beale Road Interchange for Yuba County o
Interstate 15/ Limonite Avenue Interchange for Riverside County o
Interstate 80 Auxiliary Lanes for the Cities of Roseville and Rocklin o Highway 59 and Black Rascal Creek Bridge Widening for the Ciry of Merced o State Route 4 Wagon Trail Realignment for Calaveras Counry o And many more!!
Unmatched Caltrans Experience 80% of Dokken' s projects require approvals from Caltrans. We are Central Region experts and have completed dozens of major Caltrans projects in District 10 within the last few years, including multiple PIDs.
We understand the requirements to secure environmental clearance through Caltrans/ FHWA programs, and we can secure approvals for this interchange.
With our proven success in delivering innovative, high- quality projects on an accelerated schedule, we are ready to work with the City to bring the Roth Road and Interstate 5 Interchange project to fruition.
We have reviewed the City' s Agreement for Professional Consulting Services and understand the contractual form, conflicts of interest provision, and insurance provisions therein. We have no requests to modify the terms at this time. ohn Klemunes, Jr., PE, is authorized to sign agreements on behalf of the firm.

Project Understanding
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The City of Lathrop is advancing the next steps towards the ultimate construction and improvement of the existing interchange at Roth Road on Interstate 5( I- 5) to address increased traffic volumes and to support goods movement. Within the San Joaquin Valley, Lathrop is centrally located making it a key contributor to providing critical goods movement via trucking and railroad throughout the region and the State. The Roth Road interchange along I- 5 has therefore become a heavily traveled route, and with plans by the City and the Ciry of Manteca to create an extension of Roth Road to State Route 99( SR- 99), it will become an even more critical arterial. To maintain operations, support the growth of goods movement, and accommodate future development west of I- 5, the City would like to improve the interchange at I- 5.
Roth Road currently connects to I- 5 with a tight diamond interchange configuration with immediately adjacent frontage road intersections of Manthey Road on the west side and Harlan Road on the east side. There is currently no development on the west side of the freeway, but on the east side, there are existing developments primarily of either industrial or supporting trucking operations. As a first phase to address the necessary interchange improvements, Dokken is currently working with the City on the Harlan Road Realignment project which will realign the existing Harlan Road intersection on Roth Road approximately 500 feet further to the east to provide sufficient intersection spacing to the northbound ramp termini intersection. Additionally, the project will widen Roth Road to four lanes from the interchange to just east of the realigned Harlan Road intersection. The completion of the Harlan Road project will serve as the first step to improving the overall project area so that the critically needed interchange improvements can occur. Since we are already working within the project area, we understand the interchange needs and complexities of all the constraints, as well as have the expertise and experience required to work through the interchange approval process with Caltrans. Dokken' s goal is to provide efficient project approval and delivery of the interchange to complete the City' s vision for the project area. As described below, Dokken has the solutions and expertise required to deliver the Cit s Roth Road and I- 5 Interchange 5 Project( CIP PS 1404).
Dokken has extensive experience with this project as we are currently working on the Harlan Road Realignment Project, our team members worked on the Roth Road Improvement Study memo for the San Joaquin Council of Governments( SJCOG), and we have also further reviewed the project area and have identified key features affecting the design and functionality of the interchange. These features are shown in the figure below and discussed further in the following sections.

PROFESSIONAI CONSULTIN6 SERVICES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF PID FOR Roth Road & I- 5 Interchange Project ( CIP PS 14- 04)
PROJECT HISTORY
The I- 5/ Roth Road interchange, at the northern boundary of the City, is in a perfect location to serve the expanding industrial, logistics, and warehousing operations contributing to key goods movement within the region. It also serves as a primary access route to the Union Pacific freight yard just east of I- S. To provide access to all these users, the Roth Road interchange and the surrounding adjacent roadway network requires geometric improvements. The City recognized that future need and in 2010 completed a Draft Precise Plan for the realignment of Harlan Road as a proposed first step in moving the project area improvements forward. Dokken then completed the environmental clearance of the Harlan Road Realignment in 2021 with the approval of the CEQA IS/ MND and Final Precise Plan. Currently, Dokken is preparing the final plans, specifications, and estimate( PS& E) and right of way acquisition for Phase I of the Harlan Road Realignment where the southern leg of the Roth Road/ Harlan Road intersection will be shifted approximately 500 feet east of the existing intersection and Roth Road will be widened to four- lanes. This initial shift with move the southern connection of Harlan Road away from the northbound ramp termini intersection in order achieve the Caltrans required intersection spacing as well as improve operations and safety issues caused by the immediately adjacent intersections. The future Phase II will construct the Harlan Road realignment north of Roth Road within the County to complete the intersection necessary intersection separation. Now, Phase III will improve the interchange to complete project area improvements. Additionally, the Ciry coordinated with Dokken team member, DKS, to complete the Roth Road Improvement Study which provides recommendations on future improvements of Roth Road in the City of Lathrop and City of Manteca as well as identifying traffic needs within the project area. As Dokken has been a partner with the City for this work within the project area, we have unmatched knowledge and understanding of the project area' s critical considerations and concerns.
CALTRANSPROCESS
F' raject It itiatit rE i' h ss
Within the State right of way, any significant improvements, such as an upgrade to an interchange, will require Caltrans approval in compliance with the Project Development Procedures Manual( PDPM). The first formal phase of project development is the preparation of a Project Initiation Document( PID) to establish a well- defined purpose and need statement, project scope, cost estimate, and schedule. The level of PID that is appropriate for this project is a Project Study Report- Project Development Support( PSR- PDS). A PSR- PDS is used for locally funded projects and is used to program funding for only the support costs needed to complete the subsequent Project Approval and Environmental Document PA& ED) phase; programming for right of way and construction is done with the Project Report during PA& ED.
Dokken has a very clear understanding of this often- complex process and has obtained approval of several PSR- PDS documents in the last few years, including one for the new interchange at Interstate 205/ Chrisman Road in the neighboring City of Tracy. The PSR- PDS is a streamlined version of a PID in comparison to the more in- depth Project Study Report( PSR). Dokken knows how to efficiently navigate this streamlined process to obtain quick approval from Caltrans. The PSR- PDS for the I- 205/ Chrisman Road interchange was a more complicated situation as it is for a new interchange, and even so, Dokken was able to obtain approval of the PSR- PDS in only 10 months. This quick approval and completion of the PID phase is important not only to keep the project moving forward but also because the local agency must pay Caltrans for their oversight time during the PID phase, so the faster the document can obtain approval, the less review fees the City will need to provide to Caltrans which is key for this locally funded phase. Additionally, an approved PID will allow the City to have a real project in which to preserve the project footprint and collect development fees.
Prc jer:t Apprcrv rl
Overall, Dokken has a clear and full understanding of the entire Caltrans approval process from this PID phase all the way through the construction of the interchange. While many consultants have worked on other interchange projects within the area, Dokken' s experience with the complete process and with local Caltrans District 10 staff is unrivaled. One key approval component that is special to this project is that since the interchange is on an interstate, Federal Highway Administration( FHWA) approval will also need to be granted prior to the completion of PA& ED, which is not required on a State Highway. As this is an existing interchange, approval will be granted through the preparation of an Interchange Access Report( IAR). The IAR will prove to FHWA that the interchange improvements will not degrade or otherwise negatively impact the interstate. This rype of report is not that common as it only applies to new interchanges or specific modifications to exiting interchanges on interstates only. We have prepared 7 IAR documents over the last 10 years, including the one we are actively working on with Caltrans District 10 for the I- 205/ Chrisman Road interchange, and we understand the FHWA policy points and what needs to be included in these reports for FWHA concurrence and approval.

PROJECT ALTERNATIVES
As noted, the intent of the PSR- PDS is to serve as a programming and scoping document for the PA& ED phase and no formal approval of an alternative is granted with the PSR- PDS. Instead, alternative and project approval is obtained through the Project Report at the completion of PA& ED; however, identifying viable conceptual alternatives is crucial to ensure that the environmental studies are scoped properly, the purpose and need is properly developed, and the programmed funds for PA& ED and future phases is appropriately captured. As part of the alternative analysis, Dokken will evaluate a multitude of interchange configurations to determine their feasibility; however, in review of the traffic studies for both the Harlan Road project and the Roth Road Traffic Analysis, discussions with City staff, and evaluation of the project area features, Dokken has developed the following two initial conceptual alternatives.
Partial L- 9 Cloverleaf/ Tight Diamond Interchange
Diverging Diamond Interchange( DDI)
There are several key constraints in the project area that need to be considered as part of the development of alternatives for the improvement to the interchange, including existing development and land use on the east side of the freeway, proposed development on the west side of I- 5, the existing bridges of I- 5 over Roth Road and the columns in the median of Roth Road, multi-modal facilities, intersection spacing to adjacent Harlan Road and Manthey Road, and the currently proposed Harlan Road realignment. Additionally, as the area is a STAA terminal access route with large volumes of truck traffic, the movements, travel directions, and storage length of the large trucks needs to be incorporated into any design.
F rti l l Clr verl flTight C iamc nd I Eterchan
The traffic analysis completed by Dokken team member, DKS, as part of the SJCOG Roth Road Traffic Analysis developed traffic volumes based on the updated General Plans for the City of Lathrop, Ciry of Manteca, and San Joaquin County. The purpose of the analysis is to determine various options for the improvement of Roth Road between all the agencies and to then determine fair share cost responsibilities. Based on the developed volumes, and under all Roth Road improvement extension and expansion scenarios, we have determined that the Partial L- 9 Cloverleaf/ Tight Diamond and DDI configurations are viable options for the interchange reconstruction. Each of these configurations also assumes the widening of Roth Road to six lanes between Manthey Road and Harlan Road based on the traffic analysis. s,

As a majority of the land use and freight operations are coming from the east towards the interchange, the Partial L- 9 Cloverleaf/ Tight Diamond configuration satisfies the heavy traffic needs because all movements coming from the east are able to make a right turn onto I- 5, keeping the traffic moving more efficiently over waiting for a left turn like the existing tight diamond configuration. For the northbound ramps, no change to the configuration is required as no left turn is required here for the heavy movement. A huge benefit of this alternative is that the existing land use and properties on the east have very minimal right of way or access impacts, while still being able to provide maximum capacity. With this alternative, the existing northbound ramp termini intersection will remain in the existing location, so to meet the minimum intersection spacing, the southbound ramp termini intersection will be shifted further to the west. Additionally, the Manthey Road intersection will also be shifted west to meet intersection spacing and to accommodate the necessary left turn pocket storage and weaving distance for vehicles from the southbound off- ramp to the Manthey Road left turn lane. To accommodate the widening of Roth Road to six lanes, retaining walls under the existing I- 5 bridges will be constructed under the abutments so as not to impact the existing bridges. Additionally, between the northbound ramp termini intersection and the realigned Harlan Road, the widening would occur to the north side of the road to not impact the Chevron gas station and hold the curb line constructed by the realignment. For the southbound loop on- ramp, a separate bridge over Roth Road will be constructed alongside the I- 5 southbound bridge. This avoids any work on the existing Caltrans I- 5 bridge and makes construction easier.
Lliert> r; in; i, rn, i. bst4 Irtterc, tF ti; tA DDI configuration shares many of the same benefits as the Partial L- 9/ Tight Diamond configuration in that it utilizes right turns for the major movements can accommodate the 6- lane cross- section under the existing I- 5 bridges, and minimizes impacts to the built- out eastern side of the freeway. This alternative will also shift the existing Manthey Road to the west to accommodate the minimum intersection spacing and provide storage capacity on Roth Road; however, since the southbound loop on- ramp is not required, there is an overall reduced right of way impact on the west side. Additionally, without the loop, the existing southbound ramps can remain in their current locations with minimal required improvements. Overall, the DDI configuration will have a lower project cost for the reduced right of way, reduced ramp reconstruction, and DOKKEN

elimination of a bridge required for the loop on- ramp. Since the DDI has not yet been fully analyzed as part of the SJCOG Roth Road traffic study, part of the initial geometric development and traffic studies for this project will fully determine the viability of a DDI configuration.

ENVIRONMENTAL
Dokken understands that identifying environmental constraints within the project area is key in selecting any potential alternatives for the Project. Dokken' s experienced team of environmental planners, biologists, botanists, and archaeologists contributed to the Harlan Road Realignment project; therefore, we are intricately familiar with the environmental resources in this area. Our comprehensive understanding of potential environmental impacts that would occur because of the interchange project will expedite the Preliminary Environmental Analysis Report( PEAR) preparation and approval process. Our strategy is to prepare a comprehensive environmental constraints analysis that clearly identifies any sensitive biological resources, cultural resources, and/ or hazardous waste in the project area through pedestrian surveys and record searches and include that information in the PEAR. Providing extra scoping information will not only assist the City in identifying a preferred alternative but will also expedite Caltrans review and approval of the document.
Since the project is located within Caltrans right of way, it is considered an" on- system project"; therefore, Caltrans will be the lead agency under CEQA and the lead agency under NEPA for the interchange project. We understand that the Caltrans/ FHWA environmental clearance process is often the critical path item for the delivery of a project which, if not managed correctly, can result in costly delays. Our experienced environmental planners have an intricate understanding of the CEQA and NEPA process and what it takes to successfully move a project through the environmental process with Caltrans oversight.
S n te t ill 743 Vehicl R liles Tr v fe ct
The primary environmental constraint for this project is related to Vehicle Miles Traveled( VMT). Senate Bill( SB) 743 went into effect in July 2020 and requires agencies to evaluate projects in terms of VMT. Across the state, capacity- increasing projects are being required to escalate their CEQA environmental document to an EIR due to potential increases in VMT and lack of feasible mitigation.
CEQA requires the project to analyze the with- project and no- project conditions in the future to determine VMT impacts. Based on preliminary data, the California lnduced Travel Calculator produced by the National Center for Sustainable Transportation at UC Davis estimates that the Roth Road and I- 5 Interchange ProjecYs increase in capacity will result in approximately 2. 2 million additional VMT. If Caltrans is the CEQA lead agency, the project would be required to utilize this very conservative calculator to estimate VMT impacts for the project. It is anticipated that the required mitigation to offset this level VMT even partially would be unachievable.
Caltrans is currently undergoing significant changes in project scoping and requirements under CEQA due to SB 743. These changes have resulted in lengthy new steps with regular reviews and concurrences from their 5B 743 Sustainability Group at Headquarters. We understand that the Caltrans environmental clearance process is often the critical path item for the delivery of a project, and these new project requirements add to these costly hurdles. Dokken' s environmental team is currently navigating this process on five Caltrans projects, and we are the first team in the State to develop a VMT mitigation plan approved by Caltrans, and recently received approval of an Induced Travel Study for a new interchange with no mitigation required. So, while we are up for the challenge to develop Caltrans- approved mitigation for this project, our recommendation is for the City of Lathrop to request to be the CEQA lead agency. The process to request CEQA lead agency status includes submitting a letter request for relinquishment to Caltrans, which Dokken can draft as a component of the PSR- PDS. This letter will be used by the District Director to justify the relinquishment of CEQA Lead Agency.
COST SAVINGS MEASURES
Since there is no formal project approval granted and the local agency is required to reimburse Caltrans for their review time during the PID phase, it is important to not only get through this phase quickly, but also as cost- effective as possible to allow for the Ciry' s funds to be spent in the next PA& ED phase. With this approach in mind, Dokken also looks for other places where money can be saved in the development process.
For this project, since Dokken is working on the Harlan Road realignment we can take advantage of some of the base work already developed.
For example, a utility base map has already been developed for the east side of the freeway and will need only minimal expansion to cover the area on the west. Additionally, Unico has already performed design- level topographic mapping for the entire area to the east. As a further cost DOKKEN
vF= .. Page10
PROFESSIONA CONSULTING SERVICES fOR DEVELOPMENT OF PID FOR Roth Road & I- S Interchange Project ( CIP PS 14- 04)
savings measure for this phase, the topographic mapping we are proposing to supplement our existing mapping with is planning level LiDAR mapping and United States Geological Survey( USGS) based orthoimage. This level of mapping detail is completely sufficient for the conceptual level engineering and environmental studies required for the PID phase. We have used this approach on other projects during the PID phase as it not only saves money at this point but will also save money down the road in obtaining more detailed mapping when the overall project area has been narrowed down and refined. Finally, as noted, DKS recently completed the Roth Road Improvement Study. All the traffic demand model development, traffic volumes, and even microsimulation modeling has been completed and can be easily applied to this project. DKS will repurpose the traffic data, including the detailed freight truck forecasted, to reflect future design year conditions.
A further significant cost savings advantage that the Dokken team offers is in the form of overall history and knowledge within the project area, as well as relationships with property owners. We do not need to waste time and project budget getting up to speed with the project area concerns; we will be able to hit the ground running immediately.
RELATIONSHIP WITH CALTRANS DISTRICT 1O AND HEADQUARTERS As noted, Dokken has the knowledge to move projects through the cumbersome Caltrans approval process, in numerous Districts throughout the State, including District 10. We have worked with District 10 staff, including Mason Leung, Dina EI- Nakhal, and Jaime Quesada, on multiple projects in recent years such as the I- 205/ Chrisman Road New Interchange, Highway 59 Widening, State Route 4 Wagon Trail Realignment, State Route 132 Expressway, State Route 99/ Pelandale Road Interchange, State Route 26 Slope Stabilization, and State Route 99 Merced Guardrail Improvements. Through these projects, we have developed a relationship with the reviewers and other District and Headquarters staff such that they trust our work product and that we collaborate as a team to reach a solution that satisfies all parties involved.
This trust will be advantageous in gaining the support of each Caltrans functional unit and efficiently moving the I- 5 and Roth Road Interchange project through the entire approval process. It is also this trust that will help keep the project moving through the inevitable Caltrans staff changes. Due to the agency' s size and workload, their resources are often strained which results in frequent changes in the assigned staff.
We work with the new staff to quickly get them up to speed on the project so that there are no delays, and because they trust our experience and work product, they are willing to keep pushing forward with us.
For environmental, our close working relationships with District 10 I staff, such as Jon Coley, Laura Cook, and Scott Guidi ensures that g each milestone is met on time and under budget. Further, we i understand that Caltrans having oversight of CEQA can often result in y extended review and approval times of technical studies and environmental documents due to potential induced Vehicle Miles Traveled( VMT) associated impacts. Dokken recently received approval on the Induced Travel Study for the I- 205/ Chrisman Interchange Project from Caltrans District 10 and the SB 743 Working 4 , i Group at Caltrans Headquarters which found a less than significant s k,. . ,.,_, e..,:.
impact under CEQA and no mitigation was required. Dokken will ensure that all documentation prepared for this project relating to VMT will be able to be approved by both the District and Headquarters.
While there are other consultants that can ultimately design any interchange type, Dokken' s extensive experience and long- standing relationships with Caltrans District 10 and Headquarters allow us to develop complete, cost-effective designs from the outset and navigate the complicated Caltrans process to achieve expeditious approvals.
CONSISTENT TEAM
A key differentiator of Dokken from other consultants is the consistency in our staff and overall team on projects. The Project Manager, Project Engineer, Environmental Lead, and even design staff that start the project are the ones that finish the project. Additionally, we strategically select our teams so that one team is not overloaded, allowing us to provide the City with the best service possible. For this project, Juann Ramos our Project Manager, and Jacqueline Lockhart our Project Engineer have significant experience with this location as they have both been working on the Harlan Road Realignment project since the beginning. In addition, UNICO Engineering is providing surveying and right of way engineering for the Harlan Road project, and the same staff that are doing the field and office work will also be used for this project. Our traffic consultant, DKS, has also performed all the traffic modeling and analysis for the Roth Road Improvement Study for SJCOG. Each of these team members have unmatched knowledge of the project, will not need to be retrained, and will be with the team for the duration providing valuable consistency. All of this will keep the project efficiently moving forward without the loss of any project history as well as expedite the schedule.
FEDERAL AND STATE REQUIREMENTS
Every Dokken project requires coordination and compliance with State and Federal regulations. Our team has extensive experience working with Caltrans, Federal Highway Administration, and other Federal and State resource agencies. We will use our knowledge and expertise to successfully deliver this project compliant with each oversight agencys requirements.
DOKKEN
Y Ea. Page11
k,tip,r,,..
PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF PID FOR Roth Road & 1- 5 [ nterchange Project ( CIP PS 14- 04)
While the City is currently using local funds for this current phase of the project, there is the potential and likelihood the City will use Federal funding for a subsequent phase. Therefore, we look ahead and move through the process to obtain project approval to follow standard Caltrans and FHWA requirements.
In addition to the general project approval process described above, we understand the Caltrans and FHWA processes, forms, agreements, and general paperwork required at each step along the way. Since our team has a proven track record of project delivery, we know this process, not only when exhibits need to be submitted but also when FHWA holds all additional funding requests in order to close out their fiscal year.
Depending on the City's needs, we are available to assist with preparing these various forms and agreements, including the Request for Authorization( RFA) packages at all major milestones, project development forms( PES, Field Review, Project Change), and project delivery forms utility coordination and right of way certification).
In addition, Dokken' s environmental staff has extensive experience with NEPA/ CEQA policies and procedures. We have a close relationship with Caltrans environmental staff, and we will assist the City with all needed Caltrans paperwork. We will work closely with our design team to ensure projects do not have any unmitigable environmental impacts. We are prepared to address project impacts by including reasonable avoidance and minimization solutions early in the project design phase.
SCHEDULE
A key benefit to the preparation of a PSR- PDS is that the approval process is intended to be streamlined so the project can move forward into the next phase efficiently. The project schedule is summarized below with critical path tasks shown in red. This schedule is based on the following assumptions:
Notice to Proceed is provided in December 2023.
Consensus on purpose and need and the alternatives under consideration is attained in a timely manner.
City/ Caltrans reviews are concurrent and are 4 weeks or less in duration for each deliverable.
The resulting schedule shows a duration of 11 months for completing the PSR- PDS phase. In this scenario, the PA& ED phase could begin in Winter 2025. This represents a realistic schedule based on our experience with similar projects and reflects a streamlined approach in which project tasks are performed in tandem to the extent possible.

Task 5_ Ir tErsestio Cnr+trol Ev l4 atit r ( IC_E} [ pPTtON it CONSULTANT will prepare traffic and safety studies that support a stage 1 ICE study. Per Caltrans Traffic Operations Policy Directive 13-02, this study will focus on Access Strategy and Configuration Assessment and Screening. The ICE process integrates and, in many respects, facilitates traffic studies and alternative development activities. The MOA will set the foundations to work collaboratively and early with the City of Lathrop and Caltrans to maximize the flexibiliry of the ICE policy and conduct the detailed engineering, operations, and performance analyses needed to advance Step 1 ICE recommendations. Interchange concepts will first be evaluated at a high level for feasibility. Each alternative will be evaluated using Sim- Traffic microsimulation. CONSULTANT will determine delay and queueing benefits which are key for identifying feasible interchange designs. For the purposes of the safety analysis, CONSULTANT will review the available crash history in the study area and identify any existing trends. Interchange concepts will be evaluated based on how they interact with these existing trends as well as any potential benefits or disbenefits they may have for safe operations.
The first step will be to consider applicable Caltrans System Planning document( TCR) and more recent work for the interchange to generate the Step 1 ICE document. CONSULTANT will objectively evaluate and compare signal and roundabout intersection control at each ramp termini.
The evaluation results will support outreach and advisory committee activities to allow stakeholders to make investment decisions based on the optimal traffic control and operational strategy for the design life of the interchange. Specifically, these evaluations could be applied to each ramp terminal intersection and adjacent road intersections:
