homelessness more urgent; providing showers, restroom facilities and laundry services is essential in promoting good hygiene to reduce rate of infection/illness caused by COVID-19.
Due to the nature of the emergency, the City partnered with The HUB OC (The HUB) to begin operating on (May 2, 2022) for continuum of care services (laundry, shower, restroom, mail, food distribution, etc), along with connecting the unhoused with access to shelter services through the Coordinated Entry System and Homeless Management Information System, providing access to phones and facsimile services, providing phone charging services, provide and/or refer individuals to medical, dental, and services, veterinary services, COVID-19 vaccinations, haircuts, and provide and/or refer individuals to clothing suppliers.
The City is committed to providing services for one year, unless otherwise directed by the court. The proposed Agreement will ensure that the HUB can continue to provide services through the one-year term. The amount of the Agreement is $330,000. At its April 12, 2022 meeting, the City Council appropriated $746,884.76 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding (310) for the 517 W. Struck Avenue Transition Plan. The agreement will be partially funded through the Community Development Block Grant (310). Exhibit B of the agreement outlines an annual budget of $809,222.
Staff will return to the City Council with an appropriation request for the remaining funds through a separate funding source in Fiscal Year 2023.

17. ARCHITECTURAL BARRIERS ACT AND THE AMERICANS WITH
DISABILITIES ACT
The Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 4151-4157) requires certain federal and federally funded buildings and other facilities to be designed, constructed, or altered in accordance with standards that ensure accessibility to, and use by, physically handicapped people. A building or facility designed, constructed or altered with funds allocated or reallocated under this part after December 11, 1995 and that meets the definition of “residential structure” as defined in 24 CFR
40.2 or the definition of “building” as defined in 41 CFR 101-19.602(a) is subject to the requirements of the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968 (42 U.S.C. 4151-4157) and shall comply with the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (Appendix A to 24 CFR Part 40 for residential structures, and Appendix A to 41 CFR Part 101-19, subpart 101-19.6, for general type buildings).
The Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. 12131; 47 U.S.C. 155.201, 218 and 225) (“ADA”) provides comprehensive civil rights to individuals with disabilities in the areas of employment, public accommodations, state and local government services, and telecommunications. It further provides that discrimination includes a failure to design and construct facilities for first occupancy after January 26, 1993 that are readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities. Further, the ADA requires the removal of architectural barriers and communication barriers that are structural in nature in existing facilities, where such removal is readily achievable—that is, easily accomplishable and able to be carried out without much difficulty or expense.
18. INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE
a. The SUBRECIPIENT shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless the CITY, its officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, obligations, demands, litigation, judgments, suits, proceedings, costs, disbursements or expenses, including without limitation, attorneys’ and experts’ fees and disbursements, of any kind or of any nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against the CITY and arising out of or resulting from this Agreement, caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or omission of the SUBRECIPIENT, its employees, representatives, subcontractors, or anyone for whom the SUBRECIPIENT is legally liable in connection with the performance of this Agreement.

1. SUBJECT
Agreement with ADVANTEC Consulting Engineers, Inc. for Traffic Engineering Services for Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension project.
2. SUMMARY
The Professional Services Agreement authorizes ADVANTEC Consulting Engineers, Inc. to provide traffic engineering services needed to design the signal network extension and develop updated signal timing for the project.
3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Approve the agreement with ADVANTEC Consulting Engineers, Inc. in the amount of $103,385.00 for Traffic Engineering Services for Katella Signal Network Extension; and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute on behalf of the City.
2. Authorize $10,338.50 (10%) of the contract amount for contingency purposes.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
The total expenditure for this agreement, including a 10% contingency, is $113,723.50 and will be funded in Katella Ave Signal Network Extension (20382) through TSIP Citywide (287).
5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 1: Provide for a safe community
b: Provide and maintain infrastructure necessary to ensure the safety of the public. d: Assure the development of the City occurs in a fashion that maximizes public safety.
6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Background:
The City of Orange currently maintains and operates over one hundred fifty traffic signals, as well as a signal communications network that links many of those traffic signals to the City’s Traffic Management Center. Traffic signals that are network integrated can be monitored in real time, facilitating better congestion management and incident response. In addition, more reliable signal synchronization can be achieved at on-network signals. While the City’s existing signal communication network is fairly extensive and integrates a majority of signalized intersections, a few gaps remain, including portions of Katella Avenue and Santiago Boulevard that will be addressed City of Orange Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/9/2022

through this project.
Moreover, the signal communications network generally consists of fiber optic lines and wireless devices, the former of which is more capable, durable and reliable. Currently, on Katella Avenue, signal communications are provided via fiber optics between Main Street and Tustin Street. East of Tustin Street to the City limits at Villa Park, communications are provided via wireless radios. The project will extend from the current fiber optic termination point and carry out the fiber optic lines to the western city limits with Villa Park, and continue north along Santiago Boulevard to terminate at Meats Avenue. The existing wireless communication system from Tustin Street to Santiago Boulevard will be removed.
Along with extending the fiber network along the corridor, the project scope includes upgrades to the controller cabinets and communication appurtenances and traffic signal synchronization of Santiago Boulevard.
Santiago Boulevard is a traffic corridor that primarily services residential, nearby schools, and access to primary arterials. The 1.5-mile stretch from Robinhood Place to Katella Avenue experiences significant congestion from the four schools located along the route, as well as commuter traffic during the AM and PM peaks. The Katella Signal Network Extension project proposes traffic signal and communication equipment upgrades and development and implementation of optimized signal synchronization plans to best accommodate prevailing traffic patterns.
Procurement:
City staff issued a request for proposals (RFP) for traffic engineering services related to the project on April 7, 2022 with a submittal deadline of May 5, 2022. Three consultants from the City’s on-call traffic engineering bench submitted proposals for consideration, all demonstrating qualifying experience with similar projects.
A three-member selection committee was assembled to evaluate the consultants’ proposals based on the following criteria:
· Project Team
· Schedule
· Project Understanding and Approach
· Cost Proposal
After evaluation of all proposals, the selection committee ranked ADVANTEC Consulting Engineers, Inc. (ADVANTEC) as the top firm.
ADVANTEC consistently demonstrated their capability in executing projects similar to the Katella Signal Network Extension throughout their proposal. Additionally, ADVANTEC displayed a comprehensive knowledge of the City’s existing traffic and communication systems and provided a thorough understanding of the project scope and its specific challenges.
If approved, the awarded contract amount would be $103,385.00 plus a 10% contingency of $10,338.50, totaling $113,723.50. ADVANTEC’s cost proposal falls within the project’s estimates for traffic engineering services which include, but are not limited to, project management, administration, data collection, utility coordination, design and preparation of plans, specifications and estimates, and bid and construction support. Staff recommends approving the proposed agreement with ADVANTEC.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Background:
The City of Orange currently maintains and operates over one hundred fifty traffic signals, as well as a signal communications network that links many of those traffic signals to the City’s Traffic Management Center. Traffic signals that are network integrated can be monitored in real time, facilitating better congestion management and incident response. In addition, more reliable signal synchronization can be achieved at on-network signals. While the City’s existing signal communication network is fairly extensive and integrates a majority of signalized intersections, a few gaps remain, including portions of Katella Avenue and Santiago Boulevard that will be addressed City of Orange Page 1 of 3 Printed on 6/9/2022

through this project.
Moreover, the signal communications network generally consists of fiber optic lines and wireless devices, the former of which is more capable, durable and reliable. Currently, on Katella Avenue, signal communications are provided via fiber optics between Main Street and Tustin Street. East of Tustin Street to the City limits at Villa Park, communications are provided via wireless radios. The project will extend from the current fiber optic termination point and carry out the fiber optic lines to the western city limits with Villa Park, and continue north along Santiago Boulevard to terminate at Meats Avenue. The existing wireless communication system from Tustin Street to Santiago Boulevard will be removed.
Along with extending the fiber network along the corridor, the project scope includes upgrades to the controller cabinets and communication appurtenances and traffic signal synchronization of Santiago Boulevard.
Santiago Boulevard is a traffic corridor that primarily services residential, nearby schools, and access to primary arterials. The 1.5-mile stretch from Robinhood Place to Katella Avenue experiences significant congestion from the four schools located along the route, as well as commuter traffic during the AM and PM peaks. The Katella Signal Network Extension project proposes traffic signal and communication equipment upgrades and development and implementation of optimized signal synchronization plans to best accommodate prevailing traffic patterns.
Procurement:
City staff issued a request for proposals (RFP) for traffic engineering services related to the project on April 7, 2022 with a submittal deadline of May 5, 2022. Three consultants from the City’s on-call traffic engineering bench submitted proposals for consideration, all demonstrating qualifying experience with similar projects.
A three-member selection committee was assembled to evaluate the consultants’ proposals based on the following criteria:
· Project Team
· Schedule
· Project Understanding and Approach
· Cost Proposal
After evaluation of all proposals, the selection committee ranked ADVANTEC Consulting Engineers, Inc. (ADVANTEC) as the top firm.
ADVANTEC consistently demonstrated their capability in executing projects similar to the Katella Signal Network Extension throughout their proposal. Additionally, ADVANTEC displayed a comprehensive knowledge of the City’s existing traffic and communication systems and provided a thorough understanding of the project scope and its specific challenges.
If approved, the awarded contract amount would be $103,385.00 plus a 10% contingency of $10,338.50, totaling $113,723.50. ADVANTEC’s cost proposal falls within the project’s estimates for traffic engineering services which include, but are not limited to, project management, administration, data collection, utility coordination, design and preparation of plans, specifications and estimates, and bid and construction support. Staff recommends approving the proposed agreement with ADVANTEC.

SECTION 2 - PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH
2.1 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Orange is requesting
proposals from qualified professional
engineering firms to prepare plans,
specifications, and engineer’s estimates
(PS&E) including bid and construction
support services, and to provide traffic
signal timing and coordination plans for
the Katella Avenue Signal Network
Extension project.
The purpose of this project is to enhance
safety and mobility, and to reduce
congestion and environmental impacts
of motorists traveling on the project
corridors. This will be accomplished by
expanding and upgrading the City’s fiber
optic communications network, implementing advanced ITS technologies, providing traffic signal controller upgrades, and implementing traffic signal synchronization. ADVANTEC will also identify opportunities to install new advanced ITS technologies at strategic locations to better monitor and manage the system. These improvements will expand the City's capability to monitor and immediately respond to traffic incidents, implement strategies to reduce congestion, and to effectively manage traffic from the City's Traffic Management Center (TMC) during the typical day or for other special events along major corridors throughout the City
The proposed project improvements include, but not limited to, installing fiber optic communications along two project corridors; new Econolite Cobalt Advanced Transportation Controllers (ATC); new Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) camera systems; a new emergency vehicle preemption (EVP) system; a new battery back-up system BBS; and new traffic signal cabinets.
The following summarizes the project corridors and type of improvements per location:
1. Katella Avenue between Tustin Avenue and Wanda Road
Remove existing wireless communications along the corridor Install fiber optic cable, conduit, pull boxes, splice vaults, and fiber optic equipment along the corridor
Two Ethernet switches (Handy Street and Wanda Road)
Two CCTV cameras systems (Handy Street and Wanda Road)
2. Santiago Boulevard between Arden Villas Drive/Santiago Boulevard and Robinhood Place Install fiber optic cable and conduit from Katella Avenue to Meats Avenue One BBS (Serrano Avenue)
One EVP/GPS system (Serrano Avenue)
Two traffic signal cabinets (Serrano Avenue and Meats Avenue) Three Ethernet switches (Taft Avenue, Serrano Avenue, and Meats Avenue) Three Cobalt ATC units (Taft Avenue, Serrano Avenue, and Meats Avenue) 138
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange
Page | 11
Three CCTV cameras systems (Taft Avenue, Serrano Avenue, and Meats Avenue) Traffic signal timing and coordination plans will be implemented at six signalized intersections on Santiago Boulevard between Arden Villas Drive/Santiago Boulevard and Robinhood Place. These signals will be synchronized to allow better progression through the corridor and improve signal operations during the peak and non-peak hours.
Due to the proposed project improvements, it will require coordination Caltrans District 12 and the City of Villa Park. There will be new conduit and fiber optic cable installed within Caltrans jurisdiction on Katella Avenue between the SR-55 southbound and northbound ramps. This requires us to obtain a Caltrans encroachment permit in order to conduct the work. For the City of Villa Park, there will be new conduit and fiber optic cable installed within their right-of-way along some roadway segments on Wanda Road/Santiago Boulevard. In addition, the traffic signal at Arden Villas Drive/Santiago Boulevard is owned, operated, and maintained by the City of Villa Park. Although this project is not providing traffic signal equipment or communication upgrades in Villa Park, it will require their review and approval of the project plans, and adherence to the City's encroachment permit requirements for improvements within their jurisdiction. It will also require additional coordination to obtain buy-off on the new signal timing and coordination plans.
In order to achieve the project goals, the selected firm must have experience with this type of work and a complete understanding of the project elements involved; a plan for future proofing the system; an understanding of the City’s existing and proposed traffic signal, ITS, and communication systems; the proposed project elements and improvements; an understanding of local, state and federal requirements for these types of funded projects; and most importantly a methodical and innovative preliminary engineering and planning process to successfully complete the final design, preparation of bid documents, and implementation of synchronized traffic signals.
We assure that ADVANTEC is the best qualified firm to successfully deliver professional services for City’s Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension project. We will prove this by the following:
ADVANTEC will demonstrate our understanding of the project elements involved, and how ADVANTEC’s approach benefits the City.
ADVANTEC will provide our understanding of the preliminary project planning. This helps layout the foundation of the proposed improvements, but it does not solidify that every assumption for every improvement has been taken into consideration. ADVANTEC will make sure no stone and been unturned, and provide the City with advanced planning and provide other perspectives and innovative ideas that may have not been considered.
ADVANTEC will illustrate how our preliminary engineering and planning process will determine the proper traffic signal equipment, ITS equipment, communication equipment, networking system configuration strategies; including other technologies to consider that will help the City monitor and control their traffic better.
ADVANTEC will illustrate how our approach will maximize the amount of improvements that can be implemented within the funds allocated.

ADVANTEC will illustrate how our approach for synchronizing signals allows better progression through the corridor and improve signal operations during the peak and non-peak hours. ADVANTEC will illustrate how our depth of resources and project team will successfully deliver the project on schedule and within budget.
ADVANTEC’s Project Director, Project Manager, and staff has combined experience working with the City Orange on previous and current projects. This benefits the City by having a project team that designed and implemented their backbone fiber optic communications infrastructure, has a clear understanding of the City's latest technologies and equipment needs, and understanding the City's traffic signal timing and coordination preferences though our recent experience on the Garden Grove Boulevard RTSSP.
ADVANTEC has recent experience working with Caltrans District 12, and has a proven approach to expedite Caltrans review and approval process to obtain an encroachment permit in a timely manner.
ADVANTEC has a thorough understanding and a proven process to successfully deliver the project improvements that provides the City of Orange with the tools to meet their project goals, which includes looking outside the box by identifying other potential improvement opportunities and services that goes beyond meeting the needs of this project and that can be applied to future projects.
3.2 Key Project Elements and Strategies
Based on our project understanding, we have identified some key project elements and proposed strategies leading to the successful completion of the project. It is essential to understand the following key project elements and strategies to facilitate the planning and design process. These key project elements may have an impact to the project if not properly addressed in the planning and design process.
The strategies that we propose will reduce potential project impacts including project delays; it will help expedite and facilitate the planning, design and completion of the improvements; and provide cost savings solutions to the City of Orange.
Field Review
Goal: To ensure consistency of the data collected during our field review and inventory, and evaluation of existing conditions.
Strategy: ADVANTEC’ssenior roadway and traffic signal/signal communications experts will conduct the field reviews. ADVANTEC uses standard field review forms and worksheets to ensure consistency of field review and inventory of traffic signal equipment.
ADVANTEC will perform an in-depth
field review of the traffic signal
equipment and communications (fiber
optic, wireless, etc.). Each item
inventoried will include an
identification number, description, and
an assessment of the condition while in
the field. ADVANTEC will use our
standard field review forms in order to
document this information in clear concise manner that will ensure consistency of the field review and inventory. ADVANTEC’s task leaders and team members that are assigned to conduct the field review and assessment are senior civil and traffic engineers. This benefits 140
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange
Page | 13
the City by providing results that are accurate and precise, which allows decision making about our next steps (e.g. recommended improvements) to be made concisely and made with confidence.
Utilities
Goal: Notify and coordinate with all utility companies at each project intersection and along the new fiber optic communication conduit/cable alignment.
Strategy: Coordinate with utility companies during the preliminary engineering and design phase in order to stay clear and/or identify potential utility impacts and provide alternative solutions.
This project will require close coordination with utility companies to avoid any conflicts during the construction and minimize utility relocations. Coordination with the utility companies will be required to determine the location of the existing utility lines along the corridor and project-signalized intersections, in order to provide proper vertical and horizontal clearance at locations where new improvements, including traffic signal poles, signal conduit, and new fiber optic communication conduit/cable. Field verification of other physical constraints must be addressed during the preliminary engineering and design phase in order to avoid change orders during construction. The image to the right shows a water meter box, that indicates a water line will be crossing at this location to the residential unit (home). This will be shown on our plans so the Contractor will locate and avoid the utility conflict. This is our typical approach for the entire project limits.
Fiber Optic Communication Improvements
Goal: Minimize conflicts and provide ease of installing fiber optic communications conduit, pull boxes, and splice vaults
Strategy: Provide a throughout field review, and utility coordination. Locate proposed improvement that are constructable and that minimizes impacts to existing conditions, such as ADA ramps, crossgutters, and utility or other underground conflicts ADVANTEC will recommend preferred placement of
fiber optic communications conduit, pull boxes, and
splice vaults. Our goal is to minimize additional work
that could be a result of the new fiber optic
communications location. During the preliminary
design phase, ADVANTEC will show the preferred
alignment and alternatives as necessary including
descriptions of potential impacts. We will work with the City to determine the best option along the project
limits. The image to the right shows a controller cabinet in the middle of the curb return. We will identify the
new splice vault at a location that will not impact the entire curb return or pedestrian ramp.
141
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange

Caltrans Encroachment Permit
Goal: Obtain Caltrans Encroachment Permit in a timely manner, and not impact our project schedule Strategy: Coordinate with Caltrans during the preliminary engineering and design this segment as the first order of work to accommodate their review time and approval process.
Based on our recent experience with
Caltrans District 12, they required
plan and profile of new conduit
crossing the street, Caltrans trench
requirements/details, and calling
out known elevations of utility
crossings. This was completed for
the Downtown Fiber Optic
Communications project along
Pacific Coast Highway (PCH), an
example is shown to the right. Since
we have the required notes, details
and call-outs, ADVANTEC will
expedite the encroachment review
process and it will not impact the
project schedule.
Traffic Signal Timing and Coordination Plans
Goal: 1) To enhance traffic efficiency through the corridor during peak traffic periods, non-peak periods and during construction/detoured traffic along Santiago Boulevard. 2) Ensure timing plans are conformance with the latest CAMUTCD standards. 3) Maintain cross-coordinated corridors.
Strategy: Review the existing traffic signal timing plans, observe existing conditions and prepare new timing and coordination plans. Update timing parameters to be in conformance with the latest CA MUTCD standards (as necessary). Coordinate with the project stakeholders (Orange and Villa Park) to obtain buy-off on the signal timing and coordination plans.
ADVANTEC will provide traffic signal timing and coordination plans for 6 signalized intersections along the Santiago Boulevard corridor. Five of the intersections are within the City of Orange's jurisdiction. One of the intersections is within the City of Villa Park's jurisdiction. One of the first orders of work is to coordinate with the project
stakeholders, and initiate dialog to understand their needs, and the project goals and objectives of the proposed
improvements. Our goal is to achieve trust and consensus between the stakeholders in order to obtain buy-off and successfully implement new traffic signal timing and
coordination plans. Meetings will be held prior to and during the development of the new signal timing plans at key stages in order share options and determine timing parameters and proposed cycle lengths. Traffic simulations will also be used to facilitate our findings in the office and at our meetings.
ADVANTEC will ensure the new timing plans are compliance with latest CAMUTCD requirements. Typically the updated timing parameters include: Pedestrian Clearance; Yellow Clearance; All Red; and Bicycle 142
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange
Page | 15
Minimum Green times. ADVANTEC will develop a traffic model using Synchro software along the project corridor (6 intersections) in order to provide the new traffic signal timing and coordination plans.
ADVANTEC will also provide support during implementation (and implement if needed) and provide observations and fine-tuning of the new traffic signal timing and coordination plans.
2.2 UNDERSTANDING EXISTING CONDITIONS, POTENTIAL CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS,
AND THE PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS
Based on our project understanding and key project elements and strategies, ADVANTEC has a thorough understanding and a proven process to successfully deliver the project improvements, and provides the City of Orange with the tools to meet their project goals.
In preparation for this proposal, ADVANTEC conducted a thorough field review, and the following summarizes our understanding of the existing conditions, potential challenges and solutions, the proposed project improvements, and design options to consider. . ADVANTEC will work with the City to explore any design options during the preliminary engineering phase in order to determine if these improvements are within the allocated funds.

2.3 CORRIDOR CHARACTERISTICS
This project covers the 1.3 mile segment of Santiago Boulevard which stretches from Santiago Boulevard/ Arden Villas Drive in the City of Villa Park to Robinhood Place in the City of Orange. The corridor includes 6 signalized intersection under two jurisdictions: City of Villa Park (1 intersection) and City of Orange (5 intersections).
Santiago Boulevard is a north/south corridor provides direct access Katella Avenue to the south, provides direct access to the SR-55 freeway to the north as well as Nohl Ranch Road/Lincoln Avenue. In addition, Santiago Boulevard primarily runs parallel to and is on the east side of the SR-55 freeway.
Figure 2.2 illustrates the project corridor limits, corridor characteristics, and nearby schools. 147
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange
Page | 20
Figure 2.2 - Project Corridor Characteristics
LAND USE AND ITS EFFECTS
This corridor primarily serves a residential areas, and access to east-west roadways, primary arterials and the SR-55 freeway as shown in Figure 2.2. Traffic from the residential areas create an outflow towards the adjacent freeways and crossing arterials during the morning peak periods, and a reverse inflow during the afternoon peak periods.
The project corridor serves four schools that are located within a half mile of the corridor:
Orange Lutheran High
School
Villa Park High School
Serrano Elementary
School
Cerro Villa Middle School
These schools generate notable volumes of traffic Santiago Boulevard during the arrival and dismissal times. Santiago Boulevard provide direct access to Orange Lutheran High School, Serrano Elementary School, and Cerro Villa Middle School.
Schools usually attract high volumes of vehicular and pedestrian traffic in short periods of time (30 to 45 minutes) in the morning and early afternoon. The school morning peak typically coincides with the peak commute period (6:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m.), whereas the school early afternoon peak (2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.) happens between the midday (11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.) and evening peaks (4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.).
ROADWAY CHARACTERISTICS
The project corridor starts at Santiago Boulevard/ Arden Villas Drive in the City of Villa Park, as a 4-lane roadway with protected left turn pockets, except Villa Real Drive and Robinhood Place have permissive left turns, and split phase operations are provided for outbound traffic from Robinhood Place. There are dedicated bike lanes along the entire length of the corridor and parking is not allowed on both sides of the street. The posted speed limit is 35 miles/hour.

No right turn on red signs are posted in the northbound and southbound direction at Taft Avenue.
No through movement signs (Mon-Fri from 7:30 AM to 8:30 AM) are posted in the eastbound direction at Serrano Avenue.
TRAFFIC CONDITIONS
The traffic patterns and volumes along the Santiago Boulevard corridor are heavily influenced by its proximity to schools, and access to east-west arterials and SR-55. Since it runs parallel with the SR-55, t may also be used as an alternate route if there is an incident on the freeway.
ADVANTEC has performed a preliminary analysis of existing operational traffic conditions and developed solutions to address them. The Table 2.4 lists the typical traffic conditions found at several signalized intersections along the corridor and potential solutions to improve traffic operations and safety.

Pedestrian Activity: Pedestrian traffic is an important factor on Santiago Boulevard, due to the residential areas and schools along the corridor. . Overall, in the development of signal coordination, we have to manage the competing interests of providing continuous flow of traffic on the main street, providing adequate time for pedestrians to cross the street, and minimizing the wait time for side street traffic.
ADVANTEC will analyze pedestrian counts at these intersections, and our timing plans will ensure that the pedestrian splits (walk + flashing don’t walk time) are completely covered within the vehicle splits time so that coordination can still be maintained along the corridor.
Bicycle Activity: Bicycle traffic is an important factor on Santiago Boulevard, due to the residential areas, and schools along the corridor. There are Class I bike lanes along the entire corridor, and bike lanes are also provide on cross-streets. Overall, in the development of signal coordination, we have to manage the competing interests of providing continuous flow of traffic on the main street, providing adequate time for bicyclists to cross the street, and minimizing the wait time for side street traffic. ADVANTEC will analyze bicycle counts at these intersections, and our timing plans will ensure that the bicycle timings are completely covered within the vehicle splits time so that coordination can still be maintained along the corridor.
Need for Special Plans and Traffic Responsive Operations: – Land uses that can cause off-peak traffic surges include schools and events. This results in inadequate amounts of green time for side streets during these periods and associated cycle failures. ADVANTEC will work with the City and evaluate the use of Traffic Responsive Operations for traffic signals adjacent to these special land uses. Traffic Responsive can better manage sudden peaks in traffic caused by incidents or special events. 150

TASK 3 UTILITY COORDINATION
Utility notification and coordination will be required to ensure quality design and help eliminate utility conflicts during construction. Utility notifications will be provided to the various utility owners within the sphere of the project; the notifications will be prepared using the City’s letterhead. ADVANTEC will request locations for existing and proposed underground and overhead utilities, including high risk utilities. The utility information provided by the agencies will be delineated on the plans based on their record drawings and our field review. The location of our proposed improvements will take into consideration of the existing utilities. In the event of any utility conflicts, ADVANTEC will coordinate the relocation of all utilities affected by the project. Our goal is to relocate their facilities prior to the start of construction of the project improvements. ADVANTEC will compile all utility coordination and information in a Utility Notification Log to include dates of notification, persons/utility notified and responses from the utility company. Letters 153

2.5 OUR PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPROACH
The ADVANTEC Team's management approach has been proven on past similar Regional Traffic Signal Synchronization (RTSSP)/ ITS / Traffic Engineering Projects to be effective in meeting or exceeding client goals for completing assigned projects on or ahead of schedule and within or below budget.
Comprehensive work planning and developing a proactive project team relationship will be critical to the successful management and delivery of this project. Key elements of ADVANTEC’s management approach include the following:
U N D E R S T A N D I N G C I T Y ’ S A N D P A R T N E R A G E N C I E S OB J E C T I V E S – Prior to initiating our efforts, the ADVANTEC Team will have a thorough understanding of the City of Orange and Partner Agencies objectives in order to successfully meet the project milestones. Our Project Director, Project Manager, 159
Traffic Engineering Services Katella Avenue Signal Network Extension (SP-4207) City of Orange
Page | 32
and Task Leaders will work closely with the City of Orange and Partner Agencies involved to identify specific goals, objectives, and critical issues.
CO M M I T M E N T T O P R O V I D E RE S O U R C E S – ADVANTEC is committed to provide our Key Staff and Support Staff as indicated in our Organizational Chart. Our Team has the ability and expertise to perform the proposed work within the time limits of the project, considering their current and projected workload and assignments. Our senior management Team meets weekly to discuss projects and number of hours assigned to each of our staff and to ensure our deliverables are submitted on time and in some cases, if we need to expedite the deliverables. The proposed key team members are intended to serve in their respective roles throughout the duration of the agreement.
AB I L I T Y T O P R O V I D E QU A L I T Y DO C U M E N T S – ADVANTEC has the ability and tools to provide highquality graphics, materials, and presentations for distribution at stakeholders and public meetings. In addition, ADVANTEC has prepared high level materials and advertisements to be provided to the community in-person, mail, or in the City’s website.
C R I T I C A L P A T H ME T H O D S C H E D U L I N G – On a monthly basis, our Project Manager will submit an updated four-week horizon schedule reflecting planned work. Our Project Manager will promptly notify the City’s Project Manager of any changes in anticipated project progress and will submit an updated detailed Project Schedule to the City. Specific critical path items or key critical decisions that may affect the project will be identified on a continual basis to ensure the project schedule is met. This approach also allows the City to schedule staffing for its reviews in advance and avoid any rescheduling that would delay other projects.
C R I T I C A L I S S U E S – Every project will involve issues that require discussion and agreement between the affected parties. The ADVANTEC Team works to foster a professional team relationship between all members of the Project Team. We strive to be technically accurate, objective and creative in developing consensus on project issues. The early identification, resolution and documentation of critical issues are imperative to keep a project on track and on schedule.
P R O J E C T CO M M U N I C A T I O N A N D DO C U M E N T A T I O N – One critical element for a quality project is to carefully document project decisions and direction, and the general project development history.
Preparation of clear, concise letters, phone logs, meeting minutes and action item resolutions avoid costly re-direction during design that could also have impacts on the project schedule. In addition, ADVANTEC prepares detailed “Response to Comment” letters and matrices for all milestones submittal review comments that show both the comment itself and a complete response to each comment.
P R O J E C T P R O G R E S S A N D WO R K S H O P ME E T I N G S – On a bi-monthly or as-needed basis, ADVANTEC will attend and chair Project Team meetings with the City of Orange and Partner Agencies. Project objectives, schedule, and work progress to date will be discussed to identify and resolve critical issues promptly, address budget issues and other related items. Another effective management tool used by ADVANTEC is to conduct Design Workshops and/or focused Review Meetings with appropriate functional or management groups of the Project Team members. ADVANTEC Team will prepare detailed, timely meeting minutes in a comprehensive format that includes action item tracking embedded within the meeting minutes. This easily allows for carrying action items from one meeting to the next meeting until a final disposition on the action item is reached. This method has been very successful on our past projects for providing clear structure to the resolution of all action items throughout the development of the project and is invaluable in re-tracing project decisions if needed. 160

BU D G E T CO N T R O L – Engineering costs will be controlled by frequent monitoring and early identification of any design change affecting project costs. This monitoring is accomplished easily through ADVANTEC's comprehensive Work Breakdown Structure, which will be based on the detailed Scope of Work developed for the project. Construction costs will be controlled with a cost trending technique, which uses as a starting baseline the original construction cost estimate prepared for the project. This cost estimate will then serve as the final baseline upon which any changes are measured. For all items that potentially may increase the baseline cost, careful analysis of lower cost options will be undertaken.
These techniques will keep the baseline construction estimate up to date and will allow members of the project team to monitor the cost impacts of their decisions.
2.6 OUR QUALITY ASSURANCE (QA) / QUALITY CONTROL (QC) PLAN The ADVANTEC Team’s QA / QC Program is a continuous process used not just at project milestones, but also on a daily basis as workflows from desk to desk, discipline to discipline and consultant to client. Our manager and task leaders will oversee their staff on a daily basis. We will identify key contacts for ease of inquiries regarding project status. Mr. Carlos Ortiz will work with Mr. John Dorado with the management and implementation of our QA/QC plan. They have served in this role for similar projects and are an expert in specification requirements such as those needed for federally funded projects. We have the ability to provide quality control of all deliverables and be responsive of any project related issues.
