RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Approve the proposal from Provost & Pritchard for Design Services for Park Center Pavement Rehabilitation Project and authorize staff to enter into a negotiated Consultant Agreement with a not to exceed cost of $130,890.00.
BACKGROUND
This project consists of a pavement rehabilitation project, including full depth reconstruction, overlay with dig-outs as needed, curb ramp upgrades, and striping along the southern portion of Park Center Drive in the City of Patterson, Stanislaus County. The road segment where construction will occur spans approximately 0.5 miles. Park Center Drive is one of Patterson’s Major Collectors and functions as one of the main routes through the industrial zones of western Patterson. The road is also widely used by both passenger and commercial vehicles. Before overlaying, pavement surfaces with severe conditions will be reconstructed to full section depth, including excavation and reconstruction with aggregate base and asphalt concrete. The existing road will be cold planed where tying into the existing road sections and along existing gutter sections. All existing striping and markings will be removed in preparation of an overlay, disposed of in accordance with regulations, and replaced with thermoplastic striping and markings after the completion of an overlay. All existing manhole and valve covers are required to be raised to the final grade. In addition, all crosswalks and curb ramps within the project area will be evaluated and reconstructed, if necessary, to meet the most current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Standards. This is an effort to maintain and improve roadway safety within the City of Patterson. All improvements are located within the City of Patterson right-ofway.
