d. Brief Description of Project:
We delivered the PSR-DS and encroachment permit and are currently completing the PA/ ED for this interchange improvement project with the City. Ultimately, this project will improve the existing SR- 120/ Yosemite Avenue interchange to accommodate additional traffic and provide facilities for pedestrians and bicyclists for increased connectivity, safety, and capacity. The project design involves widening the eastbound on -and off -ramps, widening and reconfiguring the westbound on- and off -ramps, signalizing the ramp terminal intersections, and widening Yosemite Avenue/ Guthmiller Road from four to five lanes with bike lanes and one sidewalk.
Several alternatives were studied, including a Diverging Diamond Interchange ( DDI), with the locally -preferred alternative ending up as a westbound loop on -ramp and diagonal westbound off -ramp. Mark Thomas worked with the City and the developer to prepare a phasing concept for the interchange. Based off the phasing plan, Mark Thomas prepared the final design for an encroachment permit project. This project widened Yosemite Avenue to include a left turn onto the eastbound on -ramp, widen the eastbound off -ramp, and signalize the eastbound ramp terminal intersection. Following completion of the PID phase, Mark Thomas began the PA& ED phase for the ultimate interchange improvements. This work is ongoing and is anticipated to be completed the end of 2025.

d. Brief Description of Project:
Mark Thomas is finishing up delivering interim improvements as well the PSR and PA/ ED preparation for the ultimate improvements.
The interim encroachment permit project included the widening and re -striping of Louise Avenue to remove a back- to- back left -turn lane to a side -by -side configuration, pavement rehabilitation, and modification of traffic signals.
Following the completion of construction for the interim phase, the initial consideration consisted of a modified L-9 interchange ( partial cloverleaf) that would result in significant right- of- way acquisitions and construction costs.
To develop a more cost effective and innovative design
solution, Mark Thomas and Fehr & Peers developed a
feasibility analysis to determine if a DDI could effectively mitigate traffic congestion along Louise Avenue. Mark
Thomas determined that the DDI was the most appropriate design alternative for the interchange. It allows for efficient traffic operations while minimizing the right- of- way footprint and construction costs. This work is ongoing and is anticipated to be completed the end of 2025.

d. Brief Description of Project:
Serving as a subconsultant, Mark Thomas provided
functional design and CIP cost estimates for this project to deliver a transformative package of prioritized system improvements to address critical multi - modal travel needs within the greater Roth Road Corridor study area. The
ultimate goal of this project was to improve essential freight and rail operations and access needs to the National
Network ( 1- 5 and SR - 99). This project helped redistribute regional freight traffic off local roadways whose primary function is to serve neighborhood and commercial area
traffic. This will allow the local roadways to better achieve low -stress, safe, multi - modal, "complete street" oriented environments with convenient travel options while
minimizing truck activity. This also provided the local and regional freight and rail systems with efficient routes to the warehouse distribution centers with convenient and
consistent access to statewide freight and highway systems.
This project required close coordination and consensus
building to deliver a balanced mix of transportation
investments and regional solutions that benefit several location communities, including the cities of Lathrop and Manteca, San Joaquin County, and Caltrans D10.

We were selected to provide professional engineering services for the City of Manteca, assisting with the development of the PID in the form of a PSRPDS for both projects.
SR- 120/ Airport Way: Located along the jurisdictional limits of both the City and San Joaquin County, SR - 120 is a four -lane freeway traversing in an east -west direction. Airport Way is a north -south arterial that serves as a key connection from SR - 120 into Manteca and the future development. The current interchange is a spread DDI configuration that provides access on or egress off SR - 120 in both the east and westbound directions.
The City is proposing to improve the existing SR- 120/ Airport Way Interchange into a DDI configuration. The project will provide operational and safety improvements generated from on -going local development and growth. The project will also enhance circulation and mobility for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians, and will also include a grade -separated Class I bikeway and pedestrian path.
SR- 120/ Main Street: SR -120 is a four -lane freeway traversing in an east - west direction. Main Street is a north -south arterial that serves as a key connection from SR - 120 into Manteca and to the Downtown Manteca Central Business District. The current interchange is a spread diamond interchange that provides access on or egress off SR - 120 in both the east and westbound directions. The City is proposing to improve the existing SR- 120/ Main Street Interchange into a DDI configuration.
The project will construct new on and off ramps and widen Main Street to four -lanes from Woodward Avenue and Industrial Drive. The project will enhance circulation and mobility, and provide operational and safety improvements. This proposed improvements will address the anticipated traffic generated from local development and growth, and enhance mobility for vehicle traffic, bicycles and pedestrians, including a grade -separated Class I bikeway and pedestrian path. e.

H. SCOPE OF WORK
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The Lathrop Road and 1- 5 interchange is located between a developed area to the east of the interchange and a growing area to the west. In 1997, the City of Lathrop annexed the area to the west of the 1-5 and developed a specific plan that is currently the Central Lathrop Specific Plan ( CLSP). The CLSP vison is to develop the open land into a mix of residential, retail and office spaces. The existing interchange has reached its capacity limits, necessitating improvements to reduce traffic congestion, enhance safety, and establish a gateway along 1-5 in order to support ongoing regional development and growth.
Mark Thomas has a
long history working with the City and specifically
on Lathrop Road. In 2005 we worked with the City to develop the initial concepts and traffic models, but the project was paused prior to the 2008 housing crash. After the interchange project was paused, Mark Thomas continued to deliver other segments of Lathrop Road to the east of the interchange. The first major improvement was the Lathrop Road grade separation over the Union Pacific Railroad, and the other was the Lathrop Road widening from Cambridge Drive to Woodfield/ 5th Street. Finally, there was a separate project to add pedestrian improvements on Lathrop Road through the interchange under an PROJECT GOALS:

encroachment permit.
EXISTING CHALLENGES
The existing tight diamond configuration has issues with queuing at the intersections. Because the intersections are closely spaced on a tight diamond interchange, there is not much storage for vehicles waiting between the signals.
The traffic queues that form at these signals often " spill back" into the adjacent signals. The key to avoiding queuing issues is to coordinate the signals at and adjacent to the interchange. When signals function as a unified system, traffic operations significantly enhance, and queuing becomes less problematic. The signals for this project should be interconnected.
Additional Storage on the Ramps
Because tight diamond ramps are generally shorter than a partial cloverleaf interchange, providing sufficient storage on the off -ramps is important. To keep the queues from backing up to the mainline, additional length will be needed on the ramps.
Ramp Metering
Caltrans will require the inclusion of future ramp metering in the project' s design. On 1-5, this requires that the ramps are widened to accommodate the ramp metering and CHP enforcement areas. Because traffic on a tight diamond configuration
enters the on -ramps by turning left at the signals, the future ramp metering will have to be coordinated with the signals to avoid having the ramp queues spill back onto the city streets. Providing an HOV lane with double left turns and a heavy right turn onto the on -ramp is very difficult.
Structure Widening
Depending on the alternative, special considerations may be needed for widening the existing undercrossing structure. The vertical clearance is limited, and maintaining the minimum vertical clearance with falsework is not feasible. One option is to construct the abutments at their ultimate location and construct the superstructure at a higher elevation. Once the super structure is built, it can be lowered onto the abutments. Closure pours are made to complete the construction. This type of construction is more expensive than conventional construction and would be reflected in the cost estimates for loop on -ramp alternatives, if loop on -ramp alternatives are studied.

KEY TO SUCCESS
The PSR-DS serves as a scoping document that outlays alternatives, costs, environmental approach, and schedule. The key to delivering a successful PID document for Lathrop Road and 1- 5 Interchange is focused on three main areas:
Effective Traffic Analysis
The traffic analysis must be reviewed
and approved by Caltrans. Our
team has unmatched experience
delivering projects with the City
and Caltrans D10.
EFFECTIVE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
Screening Alternatives
The ability to evaluate different alternatives
at high level to eliminated multiple
alternatives carried forward into PA/ ED.
This will help streamline the environmental
approvals and project delivery costs.
Innovative Interchange Design
Mark Thomas has been delivering
innovative interchanges throughout
Califomia. We will be focused on
configurations that reduce project costs and
satisfy the purpose and needs of the project.
Understanding Travel Demand and Appropriately Using Forecasting Tools to Develop Solutions Fehr and Peers and Mark Thomas have been delivering analysis on land use and transportation projects for the City throughout the past two decades. Fehr & Peers has a unique understanding of how existing and future traffic generators and attractors throughout the City and region influence vehicle demand at the two interchanges. Fehr & Peers has developed the City of Lathrop, Manteca, and Ripon Travel Demand Model ( Three City Model) that includes detailed land use and transportation network input in the three -city region, and the model is continuously improved through City of Lathrop' s land use updates. The
Three City Model was reviewed and approved by Caltrans District 10 staff for the SR 120/ Yosemite Avenue Interchange and 1-5/ Louise Avenue Interchange Improvements projects, the latter of which includes a DDI alternative. Fehr & Peers is also the expert in Intersection Control Evaluation ( ICE) methods and procedures in District 10, for which forecasts are a key component.
Our unparalleled knowledge of the Caltrans D10 forecasting process will allow us to forecast highly accurate demand flows at the two interchanges during the PID phase of the project and help right sizing the interchanges ahead of the PA/ ED phase.
Screening Alternatives
The existing interchange has a compact footprint to the east and is further constrained with the local road network and recent development. During the PID phase, Caltrans will require the consideration of multiple interchange configurations. Some of the standard interchange types will include an expanded tight -diamond ( Type L-1), partial clover leaf ( Type L-9), and a single point interchange ( Type L- 13).
i1
TYPE L- 1 TYPE L- 9
Caltrans will require the evaluation of alternative intersection controls such as roundabouts. Part of the PSR-DS will evaluate different intersection controls configuration and potentially dismiss them from consideration during this stage.
Screening alternatives early will allow us to streamline the Traffic Engineering Performance Analysis ( TEPA) and the subsequent engineering and environmental technical studies in PA/ ED. There are several options for this interchange to be evaluated, and based on our experiences, we have an initial understanding of the option. The proposed improvements need to serve the purpose and need of the project and that may require interchange configurations that are not defined in the Highway Design Manual. Mark Thomas has developed three additional alternatives that are tailored to CIP PS 06- 16) PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES FOR DEVELOPMENT MARK THOMAS OF PID FOR LATHROP ROAD AND 1-5 INTERCHANGE PROJECT Page 13 11,, of lcithtvl'
meet the City' s needs and have been accepted by Caltrans on past projects. Below is a brief description of the alternatives and the graphic on the following page highlights the benefits and constraints at the project site.
1. Tight Diamond/ Partial Cloverleaf Interchange
Mark Thomas prepared an alternative that maintained the tight diamond ramps on the northbound ramps and proposed a new southbound loop on -ramp during the prior PA/ ED efforts. The prior alternative considered is to construct a southbound loop on - ramp. The ramp would be constructed on the west side of 1-5. The benefits of having the ramp at this location are as follows:
Relatively low cost.
Provides for future six -lane Louise Avenue under the structure. This will GREATLY improve the traffic operations at the interchange, especially east/ west mobility on Louise Avenue.
Allows for queuing at the eastbound Louise to NB on -ramp signal without impacting the interchange operations.
The phased project will have a
long life span because the signals will be further apart.
Westbound Louise Avenue queuing is eliminated because vehicles accessing the freeway for southbound 1-5 are no longer controlled at a traffic signal.
2. Diverging Diamond Interchange

The Mark Thomas Team has unequaled DDI design experience in California. Mark Thomas worked closely with Caltrans D10 and Headquarters during the development of Caltrans Design Information Bulletin 90 ( DIB- 90), guidelines specific to the Diverging Diamond Interchange ( DDI). Aaron Silva is the designer and Engineer of Record for the first constructed DDI in California at the SR- 120/ Union Road Interchange in the City. This experience will be key when developing a DDI alternative for the proposed project. Major benefits of a DDI include:
Reduced Design Speed — Maximum design speeds are between 25- 35 mph, allowing for smaller radius curves that control the intersection sizing and decreases the speed differential between bicyclists and vehicles.
Reduced Vehicle Conflict Points — A traditional diamond intersection has 26 conflict points and the DDI reduces those conflict points to 14. Additionally, DDIs would experience less severe crashes with the reduced design speed.
Improved Operations — The DDI traffic signal operates in two -phases, significantly more efficient than the threephase signal of a traditional diamond intersection.
3. Roundabouts
The tight diamond interchange creates delay at signals that may cause spillback onto the mainline. An alternative to a tight
diamond interchange is a double roundabout interchange which reduces delay. Additionally, the roundabouts preserve the tight diamond ramps, maintain the compact footprint of the existing interchange. Other advantages of double roundabout interchange include reduced conflict points, reduced design speeds, and potentially lower construction cost.
On the following pages we highlight our innovative approach for Lathrop Road and 1- 5 interchange to address vehicular, pedestrian, and bicycle mobility.

1-5 AND LATHROP ROAD INTERCHANGE ALTERNATIVES
The Lathrop Road interchange experiences significant traffic demand and is highly constrained east of 1-5. During the PID phase, it is important to evaluate alternatives to properly scope the project for future phases, which often requires creativity and innovation. Mark Thomas is knows for developing creative solutions that address critical challenges and achieves Caltrans approvals. Below are three options that could be evaluated during the PID phase that highlight some creative solutions. We would continue to work with the City and Caltrans to yet other viable options to include in the PSR-DS.

1. TIGHT DIAMOND AND PARTIAL CLOVERLEAF
This alternative would widen Lathrop Road under 1-5, widen northbound ramps, construct a new Poop ramp and diagonal orvoff- ramps. The benefit to this alternative is the efficient signal operations at the southbound ramps, better lane utilization on Lathrop Road, and increased spacing between ramp traffic signals.
2. DIVERGING DIAMOND INTERCHANGE
This alternative would construct a DDI, which maintains the compact footprint of the existing interchange. The new traffic signals efficiently move traffic which creates an opportunity for Lathrop Road to be transformed into a multimodal facdit,
3. ROUNDABOUTS
The alternative would construct roundabouts at the ramp terminal intersections, greatly reducing vehicle queuing within the interchange. Roundabouts must be considered during the next phase during the Intersection Control Evaluation report.

ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH
It is anticipated that the interchange will be managed as a separate Caltrans project that will require environmental scoping to comply with the California Environmental Quality Act ( CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act ( NEPA).
THe PSR-DS will include a Preliminary Environmental Analysis Report ( PEAR). De Novo Planning Group has preliminarily reviewed the interchange project to determine what environmental constraints may be present in the project area. These include the potential for biological resources ( e.g., nesting birds, bats, and special - status species), cultural resources ( built - environment), important farmland, water quality, and visual impacts. De Novo Planning Group is currently working with Mark Thomas to complete the environmental for the SR- 120/ Yosemite Interchange. This recent local experience with the project area will be used to accurately scope the anticipated environmental technical studies required for the project.
CALTRANS PROCESS
Mark Thomas will hold a Pre-ID meeting with Caltrans to introduce the project team, review the project limits, project elements, and confirm the project schedule and review times. This is a valuable meeting that forms the Project Development Team ( PDT) that will be responsible for the timely delivery of the PSR-DS. The purpose of the PID phase is to set the scope for the next phases of the project by receiving consensus on the purpose and need statement, developing a schedule for the future project phases, obtaining approval to move into PA/ ED, and creating an accurate estimate to program future project costs. Completing the PID document will make the City competitive for grant funding for PA/ ED and construction.
Key Elements of a PSR-DS
Mark Thomas will follow the Project Development Procedures Manual ( PDPM) to prepare the PSR-DS. The traffic analysis, environmental scoping, and alternative development will be concurrent efforts to maintain efficiency in delivery. Per Appendix S of the PDPM, the following items will be required to complete this phase of work:
Purpose and Need - Mark Thomas will distribute a draft Purpose and Need ( P&N) statement at the kickoff meeting and will seek Caltrans functional unit concurrence on the P&N as a first step. It is critical to gain Caltrans buy -off on the P&N early in the process to define the project scope. If needed, a P&N Focus Meeting will be held to come to consensus with the Project Development Team ( PDT).
Alternatives - We will develop and refine alternatives of the Lathrop Interchange. As part of the PSR-DS documentation, Mark Thomas will prepare the PID level project description. The developed alternatives will satisfy the project purpose and need, will be cost effective, and will avoid or minimize environmental and right- of- way impacts.

TEPA - The intent of the traffic analysis in a PSR is to produce findings and estimates related to the operational and safety performance of existing and proposed highway infrastructure. The preliminary traffic engineering studies should be limited to an assessment of readily available information and data, and macro -level analysis. In the TEPA, Fehr and Peers will identify major performance deficiencies within and adjacent to the project limits, determine scope and magnitude of traffic analysis study that will be performed during PA/ ED, and verify that proposed alternatives will satisfy the purpose and need. The traffic analysis results will be presented as part of the TEPA and will be reviewed and approved by the PDT including Caltrans and will ultimately be incorporated into the PSR document.
Intersection Control Evaluation - Per Caltrans Traffic Operations Policy Directive 13- 02, the ICE must be evaluated as part of the traffic study. This task includes the objective evaluation and comparison of implementing signal and roundabout intersection control.

Preliminary Environmental Assessment Report - It is crucial to understand the environmental constraints within in the project area and to have familiarity with the Caltrans environmental process. The PEAR will identify and discuss potential impacts, identify environmental studies needed in PA/ ED, and make a recommendation of required environmental documentation. Since the project will include roadway excavation, demolition, and modifications at the existing overcrossing, an Initial Site Assessment will also be prepared.
Stormwater Data Report - A PID level stormwater data report will be prepared to identify potential stormwater quality issues and to summarize key storm water quality elements.
Right -of -Way and Utilities - A summary of right- of- way impacts for each alternative will be developed. A summary of existing utilities will be prepared, and potential utility relocations will also be identified. Early identification of utility impacts will be critical in subsequent phases of the project. It will be critical to identify prior rights and utility owner liability to develop accurate project cost estimates. Mark Thomas is intimately familiar with this challenge and successfully gained approval for a Caltrans Longitudinal Encroachment Permit at the Union Road Interchange.
Risk Register - Mark Thomas will develop a risk register to be included in the attachments of the PSR-DS. The team will review potential high -risk issues that could impact quality, scope, cost, or schedule.
Estimate - One of the key elements of the PID phase is developing an accurate cost estimate. The estimating will not only include creating a project construction cost estimate but will also include developing a support cost estimate for efforts needed to complete all other phases of the project ( PA/ ED, design, and construction). Establishing a precise cost estimate will set the project up for success for the future project phases.
FUNDING
Obtaining grant funds for Caltrans interchange improvements with the current funding environment is very challenging. It takes creativity and a strategic partnering approach to build a coalition of support and a combination of improvements/ projects to provide multi -modal benefits. Mark Thomas has been working statewide with local and regional agencies to secure grant funding and has established us as grant funding leaders in the industry. Ryan Bissegger, our funding lead, is an instructor for the Active Transportation Resource Center/ California Local Technical Assistance Program " Positioning for Successful Grant Applications" course where he' staught more than 500 agency staff about grant funding. Ryan has worked with the City to support grant applications for Active Transportation Program (ATP), and Measure K. Our team is currently working with the cities of Riverside, Redwood, Santa Ana, Tracy, the counties of Sacramento and Yolo, and the San Joaquin Regional Rail Commission to develop funding strategies for complex infrastructure improvements. Our team has secured over $ 1. 3B in grant funds over the last five years to the benefit of our local and regional agency partners. Mark Thomas' grant funding expertise will be critical to developing a
funding strategy that, in combination with the phasing analysis, is successful at securing outside funding. This approach, which will leverage our current funding analysis of City infrastructure, includes:
Leveraging Match Dollars - The City should consider using development impact fees and Measure K funds as their local match. SJCOG Measure K Regional Arterial funds are being used for interchanges throughout the County. The City can use an approach of over - matching and reduce the amount requested from grant programs. This will make the project more competitive on alarger scale.
Branding the Improvements - A regional approach to describing the project may be required to make a project competitive. The project could be branded with regional improvements along 1-5 for SJCOG and Caltrans. This is consistent with the SJCOG Congested Corridors Plan for South San Joaquin County that identified the interchanges and improvements to 1- 5 as necessary to alleviating congestion.
Marketing Multi -Modal Enhancements - Providing multi -modal improvements and complete streets is important for Caltrans and funding attractiveness. The bicycle and pedestrian facilities included in the interchange are a benefit to other regional improvements. These facilities can be shown to offset projected VMT increases and improve application competitiveness.
Bundling with Other Improvements - The City can explore bundling the interchange improvements with the other projects that include regional highway improvements or Valley Rail projects. One example would be to approach SJRRC about their track and station improvement plans to bundle with the interchange. This will improve the competitiveness of the City' s project. Mark Thomas is using a similar approach for interchange improvements and light rail stations in Sacramento County.

MARK THOMAS
TRUSTED EXPERTS
Mark Thomas has a significant amount of experience in delivering Caltrans interchange projects for local agencies. Through this experience, we have developed a management approach that will fit the needs of both the City and Caltrans. This includes understanding the needs of both agencies and finding the best path to project delivery and success. Through our significant experience, we have numerous examples of previous project designs that we can leverage for use on this project.
We also have established relationships with Caltrans D10 and Central Region that will facilitate project approvals.
MANAGING RISK
A Risk Matrix will be prepared to identify project elements that could impact the budget, schedule, and scope during the refinement of the roadway geometrics, analysis right of way and utility constraints, and environmental assessment. The risk matrix will identify the probability of occurrence ( high, med, low) and should continue for the life of the project as the risks can change as the project matures or anticipated risks disappear. Avoidance and mitigation measures can be developed by the Project Development Team ( PDT) to reduce the overall risk to the project.
CRITICAL PATH SCHEDULE MANAGEMENT
Martha will develop a detailed Critical Path Method ( CPM) project schedule to break down tasks into a logical sequence
of activities. Key milestone activities, such as deliverable dates, will be incorporated with appropriate agency review times.
Once approved by the City, Martha will distribute the baseline project schedule to the PDT. She will update the schedule monthly ( or more often, depending on project drivers) to show the physical percent complete of each activity and incorporate any modifications to the baseline schedule. She will proactively manage the schedule, constantly tracking the critical path items and mitigating deviations from the schedule as changes occur.
MARK THOMAS QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM Mark Thomas firmly believes that Quality Assurance/ Quality Control ( QA/C) is a company wide effort. Throughout the project, we will implement a QA/C program in accordance with our Quality Management Manual. This document clearly defines our quality management system and dictates the implementation of the Company' squality policies at all levels.
All Mark Thomas team members will adhere to this plan. Each of our respective firms supports the idea that it is our responsibility to produce high -quality products that will result in developing a clearly defined and cost- effective project.
The Mark Thomas Team will
operate under a Total Quality
