Meeting Date: January 14, 2025
Subject: RESOLUTION UPDATING JOB DESCRIPTIONS FOR THE
FULL-TIME WATER SYSTEMS OPERATOR I, II AND III,
MAINTENANCE WORKER I, II AND III/CREW LEADER
POSITIONS
Recommendation:
1. Approve a resolution updating the job descriptions for the full-time Water Systems Operator I, Water Systems Operator II, Water Systems Operator III, Maintenance Worker I, Maintenance Worker II and Maintenance Worker III/Crew Leader positions.
Fiscal Impact:
Sufficient funding has been appropriated for these positions in the fiscal year (FY) 2024- 25 Adopted Budget. No additional funding is needed.
Background:
Job descriptions are essential to recruitment, training, and development of the workforce as they identify employees’ tasks and responsibilities, as well as how they directly support the organization’s vision and goals. As part of the Human Resources Strategic Plan towards organizational sustainability, staff have developed a plan to update the City’s job descriptions in order to reflect the changing duties affected by enhanced technologies, priority initiatives, elimination of redundancy, etc. In addition, some of these job descriptions necessitate specific details about tasks and required experience.
Discussion:
The City of Pico Rivera (City) recognizes that the roles and abilities of employees have adapted to advancements in technology and the shift towards shared responsibilities.
Moreover, revising the job descriptions to accurately reflect the work being done, and the true responsibilities of the position, may help identify gaps or overlap in the workforce. A 5 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025

LEADER POSITIONS
current, accurate job description is an excellent tool for managers to use as a guide for discussions with employees about performance excellence, deficiencies, needs for skills development, teamwork, organizational changes and/or career progress. It is also a transparency tool used to describe responsibilities and duties to potential applicants and future employees. The use of updated, descriptive, and accurate job descriptions and titles is crucial in advertising job openings and conducting market studies to ensure that staff are recruited for the workforce demands of the City.
As a result, staff have been working diligently and systematically on reviewing the job descriptions, particularly for vacant positions that require recruitment and updating them according to the specific needs of each department. We have accomplished this by working closely with each department and to better understand the needs of the department, as it pertains to each of these roles. Additionally, we have conducted studies of like positions throughout cities and reviewed and compared their current job descriptions to those we are developing and updating. We have also worked closely with the City bargaining groups to ensure their input and alignment in the revision of the job description.
The job descriptions for the Water Systems Operator Series (Water Systems Operator I, II, and III) have been updated to better reflect their progression as journey-level roles, with a focus on the increasing levels of responsibility, complexity, and decision-making authority. These changes provide a clearer distinction between the positions by outlining the specific duties at each stage. At the entry-level (Water Systems Operator I), the role involves hands-on installation, removal, and repair of water services. As operators advance to the mid-level (Water Systems Operator II), the focus shifts to guiding the development of entry-level personnel through training and mentorship. At the senior journey-level (Water Systems Operator III), operators take on more intricate responsibilities, including leading, assigning, and participating in the planning, relocation, maintenance, and repair of water mains, services, hydrants, valves, and other related infrastructure, demonstrating greater independence and technical expertise.
The job descriptions for the Maintenance Worker Series (Maintenance Worker I, II and III/Crew Leader) have also been updated to better discern the distinguishing characteristics between each classification. For example, the Maintenance Worker I work under close supervision while learning job tasks, progressing to relatively less supervision as procedures and processes of assigned area of responsibility are learned. The Maintenance Worker II receives relatively less instruction or assistance and is fully aware of the operating procedures and policies within the Maintenance Worker series. Lastly, the Maintenance Worker III/Crew Leader performs the more complex types of duties assigned to the class within the series, including the provision of technical and functional supervision and performance of advanced-level activities. Moving forward, staff will continue to review and collaborate with individual departments to tailor each position CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025

classification based on the relevant role, title, specialization, and expectations of the position.
Conclusion:
Staff recommend that the City Council approve a resolution (Enclosure 1) adopting the job descriptions (Exhibit A) for the full-time Water Systems Operator I, Water Systems Operator II, Water Systems Operator III, Maintenance Worker I, Maintenance Worker II and Maintenance Worker III/Crew Leader positions. The salary schedules (Exhibit B) for these positions will remain the same and there are no changes to the budgeted salaries and benefits of these positions.

Subject: PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HDR
ENGINEERING, INC. FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
ROSEMEAD BOULEVARD AND LAKEWOOD
BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR VISION PLAN
Recommendation:
1. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with HDR Engineering, Inc. for an amount not-to-exceed $475,750 to provide technical support for the preparation of the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan (Bus Rapid Transit + Active Transportation Program + Transit Oriented Development); and
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement in a form approved by the City Attorney.
Fiscal Impact:
The fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 Adopted Budget includes a Caltrans grant of $585,334 in the Miscellaneous State Grant Fund (Account No. 699.70.7300-54500-NonCIP.30059) for the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard: Complete Corridor Vision Plan project. The Caltrans grant will cover all expenditures related to this Professional Services Agreement. No additional appropriations are required.
Background:
In 2020, the City of Pico Rivera (City) developed a community and economic recovery framework to proactively address major challenges introduced by the COVID-19 pandemic such as the economic downturn, climate change, impacts from the Whittier Narrows Dam Safety Project, and multiple unfunded state and federal mandates.
After an in-depth analysis, community engagement, and guidance from the City Council, five (5) major corridors—the San Gabriel River, Rio Hondo River, Historic Whittier Boulevard, Washington Boulevard, and Rosemead Boulevard—were prioritized based on their ability to strategically leverage local infrastructure investments with state and federal funding opportunities while advancing holistic community development and 7 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025 ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR PROJECT –
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HDR FOR THE PREPARATION OF
THE ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR VISION PLAN
economic growth. To date, this strategic approach has proven to be effective.
Given the emphasis on revitalizing major corridors, staff developed a comprehensive vision for Rosemead Boulevard that aligns with other cities in the corridor as well as regional policies and transformative projects, such as the Metro E-Line Extension Project along Washington Boulevard. The concept for a unified, regional north-south bus rapid transit corridor arose from various Complete Streets plans and projects along Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard that are generally related but largely planned independently city-by-city.
From a regional and sub-regional standpoint, in 2019, the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (GCCOG) developed a Complete Streets Master Plan from Pico Rivera to Long Beach that introduces active transportation facilities, including Class-IV protected bikeways along various segments of the corridor. In addition, the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG), in partnership with Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), recently completed the San Gabriel Valley Transit Feasibility Study, which identifies and proposes a new bus rapid transit line on Rosemead Boulevard from the Metro A-Line Sierra Madre Villa Station in East Pasadena to Pico Rivera’s planned Metro E-Line station on Washington Boulevard.
Individual local cities throughout the corridor have also completed or are in the process of undertaking various Complete Street Projects within their respective segments of the corridor, for example:
• Temple City revitalized nearly 2 miles of Rosemead Boulevard by installing a Class-IV bikeway, landscaped bioswales and center medians, public art, wider sidewalks, and other complete street infrastructure.
• South El Monte is undertaking the Reimaging Rosemead Boulevard study that proposes preliminary concepts for dedicated bus lanes. All the while, Caltrans is completing final designs and environmental clearances to install a protected bikeway in South El Monte.
• Unincorporated Whittier Narrows in Los Angeles County recently reconfigured 2.6 miles of Rosemead Boulevard to accommodate a new two-way protected bicycle facility that connects the surrounding bike paths to the Legg Lake Park. • Downey is working with Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) to implement a Transit Priority Light Synchronization Program to enhance bus ridership, reduce travel times, and enhance overall traffic flows.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025 ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR PROJECT –
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HDR FOR THE PREPARATION OF
THE ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR VISION PLAN
• Lakewood has environmentally cleared the Lakewood Boulevard Capacity Enhancement Project that proposes roadway and parkway improvements, including a Class-I bike path and streetscape improvements.
As illustrated in each respective project above, the common goal is to convert the originally designated highway (CA-19/164) into a multimodal Complete Streets boulevard. The Rosemead/Lakewood Complete Corridor Vision Plan aims to build synergy and streamline ongoing efforts in the San Gabriel Valley and the Gateway Cities to plan and build a 28-mile multimodal corridor that incorporates, where feasible, highquality active transportation facilities and dedicated bus guideways to improve regional mobility, improve safety for vulnerable roadway users, and stimulate transit-oriented community and economic development.
Caltrans Sustainable Communities Grant Program
On August 31, 2023, Caltrans announced the Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant Program awards for FY 2023-24. A statewide total of 161 grant applications were received with requests totaling $66.8 million of these applications, 90 were selected for grant awards totaling approximately $41.6 million. The City worked closely with CivicWell, a 501c3 non-profit organization, to submit and successfully secure a grant for $585,334 from the Caltrans Sustainable Communities Grant Program. The grant will fund the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan and will focus on planning efforts from Pico Rivera to Long Beach.
The Vision Plan aims at updating the GCCOG’s Complete Streets Master Plan to incorporate enhanced transit infrastructure where feasible while identifying opportunities for new urban and economic development along the corridor. The grant only funds will be developed in partnership and subject to approval from the cities of Pico Rivera, Downey, Bellflower, Paramount, Lakewood, and Long Beach. Upon completion, the Vision Plan will be presented for approval to the GCCOG Transportation Committee and the GCCOG Governing Board. The full performance period for this grant is through June 2026.
On May 31, 2024, CivicWell notified the City via written correspondence that the organization was no longer financially solvent and was forced to immediately downsize its staff and operations. As a result, CivicWell terminated the contract with the City and laid off the project manager who was assigned to the Project. Based on approval from Caltrans, the City replaced CivicWell with the Shared-Use Mobility Center (SUMC), as the non-profit partner for the project. The City Council approved a contract with SUMC on September 9, 2024. The City of Pico Rivera thanks CivicWell for their extraordinary efforts and partnership throughout the development of the HWB Multimodal Plan and the early stages of the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Project.
As part of their scope of work, SUMC will support in crafting a request for proposals to CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025 ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR PROJECT –
PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH HDR FOR THE PREPARATION OF
THE ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR VISION PLAN
solicit, evaluate, select, and help manage a professional team of technical consultants that will ultimately be responsible for developing analysis, documentation mapping, and evaluation for the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan which includes the Bus Rapid Transit, Active Transportation Plan, and Transit Oriented Development (BRT+ATP+TOD). Furthermore, the technical consultant will also provide strategic planning support to help identify and secure resources to programmatically implement the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan.
Discussion:
The Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan (BRT+ATP+TOD) aims to build synergy and unite ongoing plans in the 9.6-mile northern segment within the San Gabriel Valley from Pico Rivera to East Pasadena. The Vision Plan will ultimately articulate a regional vision for a 28-mile Complete Corridor that facilitates transit connectivity to job centers, key destinations, and significant points of interests. To name a few, these include the Angeles National Forest and the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, the Pacific Ocean, the Long Beach Airport, Cal State Long Beach, the Long Beach Veterans Affairs Medical Center, the Kaiser Permanente Regional Medical Center, Historic Whittier Boulevard (El Camino Real, CA-72), and Whittier Narrows Regional Park. The Vision Plan will also facilitate direct connections to major east-west transit lines in the project area such as Metro’s Southeast Gateway Line, the Green Line, Eastside (E-Line) Gold Line, Metrolink, and Amtrak along the LA-to-Anaheim commuter rail corridor, as well as the Metro Foothill Gold Line in the San Gabriel Valley. Converting Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard to a Complete Street with BRT while jointly improving the flow of traffic on the I-605 can serve as a combined strategy to improve regional mobility, reduce vehicles miles traveled, and stimulate transit-oriented community and economic development in the southeastern quadrant of Los Angeles County.
Technical Consultant Procurement Process
The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on October 7, 2024 seeking a qualified firm to provide technical support for the preparation of the Vision Plan. The selected consultant will analyze and document baseline conditions for transit service and operations, multimodal access, connectivity, traffic safety, and operations, will coordinate with the Technical Advisory Committee, participate in community engagement activities, develop conceptual designs and visualizations, and generate recommendations that respond to input from residents, stakeholders, responsible agencies, and prepare the plan document. As an initial deliverable, the consultant will also produce a list of early action projects and implementation strategies that align and help advance regional transit plans associated with the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The selected firm will work in close collaboration with City staff, SUMC staff, regional agencies, and stakeholders to ensure the successful development of a multimodal, future-oriented transportation plan for Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025 ROSEMEAD/LAKEWOOD BOULEVARD COMPLETE CORRIDOR PROJECT –

Pico Rivera, CA 90660
RE: Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan (NonCIP No. 30062) Dear Mr. Javier Hernandez and Members of the Selection Committee:
The future of the City of Pico Rivera (City) is bright and promising as it leads multiple initiatives that will transform its economy, expand mobility choices, connect communities, and enhance quality of life within the City and surrounding region. HDR Engineering, Inc. (HDR) is excited for the opportunity to work with the City and a broad range of stakeholders to advance a transformative Complete Corridor Vision Plan (Vision Plan) for the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Corridor (Corridor). We understand the City’s goals, challenges, and vision for the Corridor, and will partner with you to develop a Vision Plan focused on equity, sustainability, mobility, and economic resiliency.
A trusted partner to the City in envisioning and planning multimodal improvements, HDR has assembled an expert team that truly understands the importance of this transformative effort. Our team is led by Project Manager Mark Christoffels who brings over 41 years of local experience, including tenure as the City Engineer for the City of Long Beach and Chief Engineer of the San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments (SGVCOG). Our Deputy Project Manager, Naomi Iwasaki, brings over 20 years of experience in multimodal planning and transportation equity, and recently served as a Senior Director with the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro). Mark, Naomi, and the HDR Team are committed and ready to prioritize the City’s needs and mobilize quickly. Our team offers the following distinct benefits to the City:
Comprehensive understanding of the Corridor and surrounding communities. Over the past year, Mark Christoffels has led the HDR Team in supporting the City and Metro to evaluate and develop strategies that enhance regional mobility, connectivity, and transit service along the Corridor. This included working closely with Metro, Long Beach Transit, and cities along the Corridor to develop a bus rapid transit (BRT) feasibility study, the Lakewood/Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit Assessment, and a Joint Powers Authority white paper. Combined with our other work throughout the region, our comprehensive understanding of the local and regional context will set the Vision Plan up for success.
Unmatched transit service planning and design expertise. The HDR Team brings local and national experience performing analysis and design of BRT alternatives involving a range of attributes, such as side-running lanes, center-running lanes, transit signal priority (TSP), and other improvements and efficiencies that maximize the flexibility of BRT corridors to suit segment needs and jurisdictional priorities. Our team members have been trusted to plan, communicate, and deliver some of the most consequential transit projects in the region over the past several years, including Metro’s North Hollywood to Pasadena BRT and Southeast Gateway Line (SGL). 03 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan A. Letter of Offer
Strong relationships with project stakeholders. This multi-jurisdictional project requires building successful coalitions with partner agencies. Our team, including Mark Christoffels and Monica Villalobos, brings strong existing relationships with key project stakeholders such as the Gateway Cities Council of Governments (GCCOG), SGVCOG, and cities and transit agencies throughout the Corridor. We prioritize robust outreach, engagement, and communication in all we do, from day-to-day team interactions to the design of comprehensive engagement programs. Our team sees this Vision Plan process as an opportunity for the City to build strong relationships within the community it serves, create a plan that responds to local needs, and build support for implementation of transformative mobility solutions.
Full-service team with an extensive network of active transportation (ATP) and transit-oriented development (TOD) subject-matter experts. Our team understands not only what it takes to plan a transit corridor, but also how to translate concepts into reality by integrating transit with other mobility improvements and surrounding developments.
Bolstered by subconsultant partner Kimley-Horn (KH), the HDR Team brings experts in multimodal planning, ATP and complete streets, transit-oriented communities (TOC), transportation equity, funding and financing, innovative mobility, zero-emissions technology, environmental clearance, and stakeholder engagement, providing the City with the expertise it needs to plan and implement its vision.
We welcome the opportunity to meet with you and further discuss our qualifications, expertise, and approach. If you have any questions regarding our proposal, please contact Mark Christoffels at 562.264.1180 or [email protected].
Sincerely,

11 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
E. Work Approach
Project Understanding
The City of Pico Rivera sits at the intersection – literally and figuratively – of major initiatives that can reshape the way people live, move, work, and travel through the region. These initiatives include a potential new passenger rail station, a Downtown Specific Plan, TOD, a riverfront entertainment district, and the Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan. As the main north-south arterial through the City, Rosemead Boulevard will function as a main street that connects people via walking, biking, transit, and driving. Beyond the City, the Corridor will connect people from the San Gabriel Valley through the Gateway Cities with fast, frequent, and convenient transit options. This Vision Plan will invite the City, community members, agency partners, and key stakeholders to understand how improvements along the Corridor can lead to improved access, reduced VMT and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and improved community and economic vitality.
Opportunities and Challenges
The growing demand for regional travel underscores the importance for Pico Rivera and other Gateway Cities to explore sustainable, multimodal transportation solutions as an alternative to private automobile use. As the primary corridor traveling parallel to I-605, Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard is a crucial north-south alternative and presents an opportunity for enhanced bus service and safe pedestrian and bicycle facilities. The City envisions a united 26-mile enhanced bus corridor from the San Gabriel Valley through the Gateway Cities to facilitate connections to the regional transit network, job centers, and key destinations, while integrating pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure and supporting TOD. HDR understands this Vision Plan is an integral component in bringing that vision to life.
Over the past year, the HDR Team has been a steadfast partner to the City and Metro in developing and evaluating strategies to improve regional mobility and connectivity along the Corridor. Enhanced bus service along the Corridor would capitalize on the high volume of travel between the Gateway Cities and Long Beach, especially to California State University, Long Beach (CSULB), the Veteran Affairs (VA) Medical Center, and central Long Beach. Current transit services making this connection are infrequent and require transfers between bus operators, limiting their effectiveness.
The Vision Plan presents a pivotal opportunity to:
• Develop a vision in tandem with the community. Robust stakeholder and public engagement throughout the process will allow the City to develop closer ties with community members and organizations and strengthen collaboration with agency partners. Our team will work collaboratively with the City and SUMC to develop an outreach and engagement strategy that prioritizes early stakeholder and community involvement in order to gain input on overall vision, goals, and objectives before developing more detailed recommendations. The process will be designed around transparent, straightforward communication and meaningfully listening and incorporating feedback from stakeholders and community members.
The Lakewood/Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit
Assessment, prepared by HDR, found that rail connections were major drivers of Corridor ridership, and planned rail improvements in the City are potential future connection points. HDR is intimately familiar with the rail systems in the study area through our work on Metrolink’s SCORE Program and Metro’s Southeast Gateway Line.
12 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
• Define the elements needed to create an interconnected, multimodal Corridor. The City has plans for a multi-layered, enhanced Corridor that incorporates high-quality transit services, ATP, transit-oriented communities, and new mobility technologies. This project provides an opportunity to look at these elements holistically, identify issues and opportunities to connect to the greater multimodal network, and chart a path forward.
• Identify funding opportunities and implementation action plans.
Pico Rivera needs a plan that bridges the gap between vision and execution.
This project will go beyond defining transportation improvements by laying out specific, actionable steps and funding opportunities to achieve the City’s goals. Our team includes experts that understand the shifting funding landscape and ways to position the City’s efforts effectively for obtaining grant funding. Our team’s expertise will provide the necessary steps needed to turn the plan into reality.
Approach to Scope of Work
Based on the RFP Scope of Work, the HDR Team will lead Tasks 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7. Tasks 3 and 4 will provide technical support to SUMC, the City’s engagement partner for this project. The project team will provide the necessary resources and relationships to SUMC to optimize engagement with jurisdictions, community members and organizations, and other stakeholders along the Corridor. The HDR Team will provide one (1) round of review for each draft deliverable. The City will provide the HDR Team with feedback on each draft deliverable within seven (7) business days of receiving the draft deliverable submittal. Feedback from the City will include a consolidated set of non-conflicting comments.
Task 1: Project Management
1.1 Contract Kickoff and Project Management
Kicking It Off Right. Upon notice to proceed (NTP), a virtual project kick-off meeting will be scheduled between City staff, SUMC, and the HDR Team. The key purpose of this meeting will be to discuss project goals, expectations, requirements, approach, and tasks; confirm a mutual understanding of scope, budget, timeline, and key milestone dates; develop communication protocols and assign points of contact; clarify roles and responsibilities; and build upon the strong working relationship between the HDR Team and the City.
Establishing an Effective Work Plan. Within 14 calendar days of NTP, the HDR Team will prepare a detailed work plan for the Vision Plan. At a minimum, elements of the work plan will include the following:
• A description of project workflow and task deliverables • A schedule that identifies the timing of key milestones required to complete the Vision Plan
• Milestones that include start dates, critical path items, estimated activity durations, and anticipated completion dates of key deliverables • An organization chart that outlines required staffing and responsibilities for the City, SUMC, and HDR Team
• Sample invoice and monthly progress memorandum
• Communication protocol for the City, SUMC, and HDR Team HDR will organize the work plan, as well as other project deliverables, schedules, and resources, in a project dashboard with shared access between HDR, the City, and SUMC. The project dashboard will be formatted in an Excel spreadsheet and will be the primary source of tracking tasks, deliverables, and overall progress toward completing the Vision Plan. The dashboard will be updated at least one (1) business day prior to every project team meeting (Task 1.2). Project team meeting schedules may vary based on project flow and key milestones.
Since May 2023, HDR has supported the City of Culver City in creating strategies, messaging, and presentations that effectively engage agency partners to build support and momentum for key mobility planning initiatives, funding opportunities, and partnerships that turn plans into actions. 13 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
1.2 Coordination and Communication
The HDR Team will prepare agendas for project team meetings with the City and provide minutes after each meeting to document key decisions and action items.
We will leverage the project dashboard to provide updates during these meetings and identify current action items. Project team meetings are assumed to start on a biweekly schedule, which will be updated as needed for efficient project flow and key milestones. HDR assumes that each project team meeting will be 1 hour in length with an option to attend virtually. The HDR Team will participate in up to 25 project team meetings during the life of the project; participation in and preparation for further project team meetings will require additional resources.
HDR will develop detailed data request lists identifying information needed from the City or other project partners. HDR will also set up a cloud-based file sharing system to house and share data, deliverables, and other relevant project materials, including the project dashboard. HDR will also be available for up to 20 hours over the course of 12 months after the contract expiration date to answer questions and/or provide clarification and guidance regarding deliverables.
Task 2: Research, Discovery, and Existing Conditions
Several studies and planned improvements along the Corridor provide a catalyst to achieve the City’s transportation vision. As outlined in the GCCOG’s Lakewood/ Rosemead Boulevard Master Plan and Complete Street Evaluation, and the Lakewood/Rosemead Boulevard BRT White Paper on Project Feasibility HDR prepared by HDR, Rosemead Boulevard is identified as the priority for a north-south BRT alignment in the region. Phase 2 of the Eastside Transit Corridor Project plans to bring light rail to Pico Rivera with a station at Rosemead Boulevard, and Metro recently initiated a study for a new Metrolink commuter rail station in the City.
As mentioned above, HDR supported the City with a feasibility white paper for BRT on the Corridor, which included key findings regarding access to transportation connections, recreational destinations, and major medical and educational institutions, TOD opportunities, and potential scalable BRT design scenarios. In 2024, HDR completed the Lakewood/Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit Assessment for Metro to inform potential service enhancements along the Corridor.
Further, HDR will coordinate with the City’s Active Transportation Master Plan (ATMP) consultant during this task’s existing conditions analysis (Task 7). Our team will create an organized inventory of existing conditions to inform future transit and streetscape alternatives and provide context for stakeholder engagement.
2.1 Existing/Current Plans, Studies, Policies, Projects, and Programs Our team understands the need for the City to establish a clear and comprehensive baseline of existing plans, policies, and programs to support development of multimodal improvements. Having worked on the Lakewood/Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit Assessment, we bring an understanding of plans and policies relevant to the Corridor. Agree. How about:
Our review will establish a clear understanding of adopted and in-progress plans and policies that address multimodal transportation and land use planning coordination.
This understanding will inform development of feasible multimodal improvement alternatives along the Corridor.
Our team will review existing plans, policies, and programs to understand the project scopes and impacts, and evaluate how these initiatives align with and support a multimodal corridor on Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard. Documents our team has already analyzed through our previous work in and around the Corridor include:
• Lakewood/Rosemead Boulevard Master Plan and Complete Street Evaluation • Circulation Elements of the General Plan for the six corridor cities • Metro BRT Vision & Principles Study
• Metro BRT Design Guidelines, Metro NextGen Bus Plan
• Metro Street Design Improvement Study
• Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) 2024 Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy
The HDR Team’s existing data and knowledge of the Corridor will help streamline data collection and analysis.
14 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
We will also review additional local and regional documents, including:
• Pico Rivera General Plan
• Pico Rivera Strategic Plan
• Pico Rivera Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan
• Pico Rivera Local Roadway Safety Plan
• Pico Rivera Historic Whittier Boulevard Multimodal Plan • Washington Boulevard Transit-Oriented Development Specific Plan • Pico Rivera Urban Greening Plan
• Land Use Elements of the General Plan for the six corridor cities • LA28 Games Plans
• Long Beach Transit East Regional Transit Center Feasibility Study Aligning the Vision Plan with other regional and local plans will help position the project for short- and long-term success. Our team will pay particular attention to understanding the key drivers, visions, goals, and objectives of each plan to assess how they complement or conflict with one another. This task also provides an opportunity to identify gaps in data and information to support ongoing efforts on the Corridor. An inventory of documents, data, images, and summarizations will be housed in the cloud-based file management system. This analysis will inform and be summarized into the Existing Conditions, Needs, and Opportunities Report (Task 2.6).
2.2 Project Mapping
The HDR Team will build upon the relevant data layers we previously developed for the Lakewood/Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit Assessment to prepare detailed aerial base maps. We will incorporate mapping layers to illustrate existing transit routes, active transportation infrastructure, and network connectivity in compelling, graphic-rich maps. Our team will verify our data is up to date, including roadway networks, bus and rail routes (including service frequencies and spans), active transportation facilities, first/last mile services, and available ridership information.
Special attention will be paid to services that connect with the Corridor. Our team will assess connectivity gaps and opportunity areas in terms of current and future needs. The map design will consider their use in design and analysis efforts as well as stakeholder/community outreach materials.
HDR will implement a comprehensive geographic information system (GIS) that will serve as a common operating platform for the project team to review existing data and perform analyses. This system will allow for seamless integration of data and will support data integrity, efficient map production, and geospatial analyses, providing the project team with deep insight into the Corridor’s existing conditions and the ability to identify opportunities for transportation improvements.
The project base mapping will be produced in large print format, as well as digital format housed in the project cloud-based file sharing system. The consultant team will provide one (1) printed copy of each base map to the City. The HDR Team assumes these maps will capture existing conditions to be utilized for the project and they will not be updated as part of this project after completion.
2.3 Site Visits
Site visits are essential to directly observe and evaluate current conditions, which is crucial for understanding real-world context to identify practical constraints and opportunities. SUMC will lead coordination, planning, and logistics of site visits, including coordinating with the cities and stakeholders (Task 3.1) who will participate in the site visits to enable collaborative discussions and insights.
The HDR Team has licenses
to powerful data analytics
platforms such as ArcGIS
Pro, ArcGIS Online Web
platform, and Replica, which
we will use to inform our
technical analyses while
minimizing cost of data
acquisition and licensing.
15 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
The HDR Team will support a detailed city-by-city field review of the Corridor to assess existing right-of-way, roadway configuration, traffic control measures, and the quality of pedestrian, bicycle, and transit facilities. Traffic engineering and transit planning specialists from the HDR Team will participate in up to two (2) site visits along the Corridor. HDR will document existing physical characteristics along the Corridor, including cross sections, existing parking, signage restrictions, signal operations, and existing transit loading areas. Assessment of and feedback on the Corridor during the site visits will inform the Existing Conditions, Needs and Opportunities Report (Task 2.6).
2.4 Transit Demand, Propensity, and Service Analysis
To evaluate transit propensity and understand existing and future demand, we will utilize a comprehensive approach that includes analyses of demographics, land uses, socioeconomic factors, travel patterns, and transit service.
Demographic, Land Use, and Socioeconomic Analysis. The HDR Team will analyze information related to existing and forecasted population and employment densities and land uses. We will also analyze demographic information such as household incomes, zero-car households, employment and employment density, limited-English populations, and relevant age cohorts, such as seniors and students.
We will leverage the prior demographic analysis conducted for the 2024 Lakewood/ Rosemead Corridor Enhanced Transit Assessment, augmenting any additional analysis with data from the U.S. Census Bureau to update demographics and include relevant forecasts based on the 2024 SCAG Regional Transportation Plan.
Information will be collected in GIS format and displayed using maps and graphics.
This analysis will help the team understand the characteristics of the Corridor and how mobility improvements can be targeted to community needs. Improvements and developments included in the plans reviewed in Task 2.1, including existing and proposed land use from the Corridor cities’ General Plan elements, will be incorporated into this analysis to understand how future projects will affect demand patterns.
The 2024 Enhanced Transit Assessment’s Study Corridor was defined as Lakewood/ Rosemead Boulevard from Gallatin Road in the City of Pico Rivera to SR-1/Pacific Coast Highway in the City of Long Beach, and the Study Area was defined as a onemile buffer around the length of the Study Corridor. Key demographic and land use findings from this assessment include:
• Density and growth in both population and employment are spread relatively evenly across the Study Corridor, although significant population growth is projected in Pico Rivera. Areas near the Long Beach Airport are not expected to grow significantly.
• More key origins/destinations, higher densities, and greater transit propensities are shown just beyond the southern end of the Study Area, including CSULB, the VA Medical Center, and central Long Beach.
• Overall, the Study Corridor does not show high levels of need according to Metro’s equity metrics, but portions are classified as High Need or Very High Need, including areas in Pico Rivera, Downey, and Bellflower.
Travel Demand and Propensity Analysis. Understanding travel demand is key to developing effective transportation networks. Our team will utilize a “big data” provider and the travel demand model to understand volume of travel to, from, and within the broader service area. We will develop graphics that summarize travel pattern information in straightforward and informative ways. HDR will also utilize travel analyses performed for the 2024 Enhanced Transit Assessment, specifically the Transit Propensity Score (TPS) methodology applied to the Study Corridor.
The HDR Team brings extensive local experience developing BRT and ATP alternatives for long corridors with a range of land uses and community demographics, such as the Metro North Hollywood to Pasadena BRT and Vermont BRT projects.
16 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
Key travel pattern findings from the 2024 Enhanced Transit Assessment include:
• The highest activity stops are primarily located between Lakewood Center and Telegraph Boulevard, with boardings per revenue hour and revenue mile most productive within the same area. The Lakewood Station stop, offering transfers to the C Line, is the highest activity stop in the Study Corridor, showing the importance of regional connections in generating ridership. • Areas with a medium TPS score are seen near the middle of the Study Corridor, in portions of Downey, Paramount, Bellflower, and Lakewood. Higher levels of transit propensity are also shown in Long Beach, south of the Study Corridor. • The portion of the Study Corridor within Pico Rivera shows strong boarding activity. Development planned in Pico Rivera would further boost the potential for ridership along the Corridor.
• While long-term trends in post-pandemic ridership are still unclear, improving frequencies (along with other operational and convenience enhancements) can boost ridership by changing the way riders view and experience the service.
Transit Service Analysis. To assess transit conditions, our team will leverage our established relationships and prior experience working with transit agencies that operate along the Corridor to make efficient use of the Transit Agency Subcommittee Meetings (Task 3.3).
2.5 Corridor Infrastructure and Operations
The Corridor is currently characterized by a wide variety of auto-oriented cross sections, serving expected auto demand, capacity needs, and municipal priorities.
HDR’s previous analysis on the Enhanced Transit Assessment identified development patterns, travel patterns, cross sections, corridor ridership and productivity, and right-of-way characteristics to determine feasibility of enhanced transit alternatives.
Other relevant data gathered for the Enhanced Transit Assessment included 2023 observations of existing bus traffic conditions, a high-level traffic analysis, and field observations of potential issues needing mitigation.
Further, the HDR Team will work with the City’s ATMP consultant to integrate potential impacts on traffic flow, safety, and adjacent properties into the Corridor analysis (Task 7.3). This inventory of information will be corroborated in coordination with project site visits (Task 2.3) and augmented with additional analyses, such as pedestrian and bicycle connectivity.
The following activities will be conducted to augment the existing analyses:
• Readily available existing traffic counts will be obtained from existing sources and the consultant team will use the Replica “big data” platform as a source of traffic volume information.
• A refreshed high-level traffic analysis will be performed by applying the readily available traffic volume information to identify Corridor segments and locations that are experiencing substantial congestion during periods of the day. These may be strong candidate locations for bus priority treatments to improve travel time and trip reliability for transit riders.
• An existing conditions assessment for multimodal facilities to evaluate infrastructure for pedestrians, cyclists, and other forms of active transportation.
The objective will be to identify gaps and barriers in the multimodal infrastructure and opportunities for enhancements (e.g., address gaps in protected bicycle lanes).
The existing Corridor infrastructure and operations assessment will be documented in the Existing Conditions, Needs, and Opportunities Report (Task 2.6).
HDR has a fully developed ridership model using the
Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Simplified Tripson-Project Software (STOPS) utilizing the preliminary alternatives developed for the 2024 Enhanced Transit
Assessment. This will allow new alternatives to be easily added to the model to run new scenarios without having
to recode the background conditions.
17 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
2.6 Existing Conditions, Needs, and Opportunities Report In this task, the HDR Team will collect information to identify issues that will help establish the improvements to be considered in the Vision Plan, provide alternatives to traditional vehicle congestion, increase passenger throughput and mode shift, improve safety, and create more equitable access to the transportation network. The HDR Team will conduct high-level TOD analysis to support this task. The Existing Conditions, Needs, and Opportunities Report will summarize the data and information collected in Tasks 2.1 through 2.5; the priorities, assets, and constraints identified from engagement activities in Tasks 3 and 4; and reflect the coordination efforts from Task
7. The graphically oriented report and executive summary will be framed around the locations and types of transit, transportation, and development improvements that would be most impactful to enhancing mobility, connectivity, and livability along the Corridor.
2.7 Prepare Mobility Problem Definition Statement
The HDR Team will prepare a Mobility Problem Definition Statement describing the purpose and need for the proposed mobility improvements. The Definition Statement will include a set of project goals and objectives reflective of past studies, existing plans, additional analyses, and the consultation engagement activities in Tasks 3 and 4. The goals and objectives will be the foundation of the project’s conceptual and analytical development. The Definition Statement will also identify primary and secondary transit markets to be served, as well as unmet transportation demands.
The Definition Statement will:
• Document travel patterns along, to, and from the Corridor using the data collected in Task 2 and Replica
• Determine existing and future potential transit market conditions and whether there is any unmet transit need based on the updated demographic, land use, and transit propensity analysis
• Determine connectivity deficiencies in potential ridership within the Corridor • Examine the Corridor’s growth projections to determine the benefits of potential transit upgrades for various BRT alternatives
• Examine current land use and zoning guidelines to assess potential for future TOD Task 3: Project Planning Committees and Groups
To support implementation of this multi-city effort, HDR will partner with SUMC to maintain information exchange and regular engagement with jurisdictions and agencies in the Corridor area. Where useful, HDR is prepared to utilize our strong experience and relationships with civic leaders and staff to strengthen communication and consensus-building. As a starting point, the consultant project team will meet with SUMC and other knowledgeable partners to establish a shared understanding of the diverse communities along the 16.7-mile Corridor. This initial alignment meeting will be one (1) hour in length, with an option to join virtually, and will establish roles and responsibilities between SUMC and the consultant team.
SUMC will take the lead on scheduling and agenda development for this meeting, and HDR will provide input on agenda items.
HDR will work closely with SUMC to provide technical presentations and materials, engagement staffing support, and project context drawn from our extensive prior work along the Corridor and its jurisdictional agencies. At least one representative from the HDR Team will attend all Task 3 meetings to thoroughly document discussions and action items in order to cross-reference them for common themes or competing priorities.
Project Manager Mark Christoffels established critical early consensus from the Corridor agencies for the 2024 Enhanced Transit Assessment by leveraging his established relationships, conducting multiple meetings with each agency to work through potential issues and concerns, and attending many Council, Board, and Council of Government meetings.

THE COMMUNITY ANALYTICS ADVANTAGE
HDR’s Community Analytics tool harnesses multiple data sources to deliver insights into community characteristics. Our team analyzed the Corridor to understand how community analytics could target opportunities for engagement and mobility improvements for the Vision Plan. The detailed report can be viewed here:
Rosemead/Lakewood Community Analytics Study.
Further, HDR’s Community Analytics tool can utilize available public data to understand the community characteristics of the Corridor, including demographic and socioeconomic profiles; race, ethnicity, and language; digital access; health and safety; and civic engagement variables. Our preliminary study of the Corridor, detailed to the right, can contribute to our role in supporting outreach strategies.
4.1 Graphic Design, Visualizations & Collateral Materials The HDR Team will work closely with SUMC to draft and design a series of high-quality, easy-to understand, and bilingual (English and Spanish) informational materials and other helpful resources, including:
• Project Branding. Our team will lead the logo design and overall branding for the Vision Plan, consistent with any City communications style guidelines.
• Targeted Messaging. HDR will work with SUMC and the City to develop collateral templates, customized by audience and engagement format, for efficient materials development that maintains key project messaging. • Access Matters. Collateral content will be reviewed for readership accessibility, including middle school grade reading levels, language translation, and disability accessibility factors such as compatibility with screen readers or high color contrast.
HDR assumes graphic design development of each material, including project logo and branding, will go through one (1) round of review and edits with SUMC and the City. Additional edits after this round are anticipated to require additional resources. HDR assumes SUMC will lead the translation of materials into languages other than English and Spanish as needed.
4.2 Stakeholder Focus Groups
HDR will support efforts by SUMC and the SAG (Task 3.6) to convene focused listening sessions to learn from community members, advocacy organizations, service providers, employer and business associations, and institutional representatives served by the Corridor. The goal of this task is Percent of Population Age 5+
Who Speaks Spanish at Home
HOW CAN COMMUNITY ANALYTICS HELP?
Equity and Engagement. The Corridor is adjacent
to some disadvantaged communities in Pico Rivera,
Downey, Paramount and Bellflower. Our community
analytics have identified language proficiency
and preferences to better customize engagement
strategies and materials, as well as homeowner/
renter statistics to better understand housing
security when discussing TOD opportunities.
Opportunities to Grow Ridership. Regions
across the country are continuing to rebuild transit
service after the COVID-19 pandemic, and our
community analytics can identify opportunities to
encourage ridership along the Corridor. Improving
transit services and first/last mile options may
attract new riders and encourage existing
customers to ride more often.
Targeted Mobility Options. The Corridor has a
slightly higher senior (65+) population compared
with Los Angeles County as a whole, suggesting
opportunities to enhance senior mobility options.

to better understand the needs, perceptions, and preferences of local stakeholders to inform the selection of project alternatives and components. Listening sessions will be organized as small focus groups, providing an opportunity to share project information and gauge feedback from participants. Members of the HDR Team have led many focus groups related to transportation projects and understand the valuable insights and information they provide.
The HDR Team will work closely with SUMC to identify the goals, objectives, question types, and format of each focus group. The participant list will be developed by SUMC with input from the consultant team and SAG members. HDR assumes focus group listening sessions will be hosted online for up to 1 hour each to maximize participation, provide geographic coverage, and keep participants engaged in the discussion. The HDR Team assumes SUMC will take the lead in verifying virtual access is supported with language and disability access features when needed.
The HDR Team will also coordinate with SUMC on overall focus group approach, provide direction on desired participant feedback, develop sample questions for refinement by SUMC, and participate in up to five (5) focused listening sessions.
HDR assumes that SUMC will take the lead in coordinating logistics, identifying participants, scheduling, noticing, facilitating listening sessions, and documenting outcomes. The HDR Team will staff up to two (2) listening session preparation meetings (up to 1 hour each) with SUMC. Participation in additional listening sessions is contingent on identifying additional resources. The HDR Team also assumes SUMC will synthesize and summarize input from the listening sessions, whether or not the HDR Team is in attendance. HDR will review listening session notes to verify the input informs the development of project alternatives.
HDR will support agenda and content development, meeting materials, and in-meeting facilitation, note-taking, and technical support as needed. HDR will pay particular attention to supporting aligned messaging and goals with the SAG (Task 3.6).
4.3 Walking Tours
The HDR Team assumes SUMC will take the lead in scheduling, organizing, planning, and facilitating walking tours to observe precedent BRT projects, services, and conditions in other parts of the region. Participation in these walking tours will require travel to project locations such as the San Fernando Valley or San Bernardino County.
HDR assumes each walking tour duration will be up to 1 hour (excluding travel to and from the tour site). At least one representative from the HDR Team will attend up to two (2) 1-hour walking tours to document questions, observations, and feedback relevant to development of BRT and ATP Alternatives (Task 5.1) made by TAC (Task
3.2) and SAG (Task 3.6) members in attendance.
As part of Metro’s Eastside Transit Corridor Phase 2 project, Monica Villalobos led 2 walking audits in the City with staff and local community-based organizations. Her work helped coordinate ATP projects leading to and from the project’s proposed LRT station in the City.
22 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
4.4 Public Surveys
To gain a comprehensive understanding of community perspectives, HDR will work with SUMC to create up to one (1) community survey, aimed at guiding the development of BRT and ATP Alternatives for the Vision Plan. The survey will seek information on the Corridor communities’ transportation experiences and needs, including how frequently residents use transit services, obstacles they face in accessing public transportation, specific areas requiring improvements, demographic data, issues related to particular bus lines, and other relevant questions. The development of these questions will be a collaborative effort, involving close coordination with SUMC and City staff, and possibly the SAG (Task 3.6) if appropriate. HDR will lead development and formatting of survey questions, and assumes SUMC will lead distribution of both digital and paper surveys, and that SUMC will collect and synthesize survey findings to share with HDR.
HDR also assumes the survey will undergo up to one (1) round of review and edits from SUMC and the City.
The survey will be launched during the early phases of the project and framed to be relevant for all phases of the project leading up to the development of BRT and ATP Alternatives (Task
5.1). Preliminary survey responses may be used to inform prompts or engagement strategies at future engagement opportunities, such as later Stakeholder Focus Groups (Task 4.2) and/or Mobility Needs and Opportunities Forums and Pop-Up Engagement (Task 4.5). HDR assumes any incorporation of preliminary survey responses into other project tasks is incumbent upon SUMC collecting and synthesizing survey responses at least 2 weeks prior to the start of those tasks.
Survey content will follow accessibility standards for all project materials (Task 4.1) and will be reviewed for readership accessibility, language translation, and disability accessibility factors.
HDR will provide accessibility checks for digital and paper surveys. Surveys will be produced in English and Spanish at minimum and can be translated into other relevant languages as needed.
HDR assumes SUMC will provide any translation needed for survey questions and content.
4.5 Mobility Needs and Opportunities Forums and Pop-Up Engagement HDR will support efforts by the City and SUMC to conduct up to six (6) in-person Mobility Needs and Opportunities Forums at 3 local locations (6 forums total). Community forums and local engagement are important components of a successful corridor planning process. The HDR Team has extensive experience facilitating small group discussions, activities, mapping Country Club Boulevard
Complete Streets Corridor Plan
This ATP-grant-funded project provided San Joaquin
County with strategies for ATP improvements that
address safety, connectivity, and mobility concerns
while also creating a unique identity for the corridor.
HDR first conducted an existing conditions analysis and gathered data from the community by holding outreach
events. We then developed six design concepts and
qualitative and quantitative scoring analyses to rank
the concepts. Alternatives were laid out to determine
specific improvement recommendations. We further
supported the project by developing the project design, providing construction funding options, and preparing
the draft and final plan to document the overall process. 23 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
exercises, and feedback sessions on topics such as complete streets, first/last mile, zero-emission transit opportunities, enhanced transit options, and TOC development.
As part of this experience, HDR has also summarized community feedback and questions to present project assessments, concepts, and recommendations for transportation and infrastructure improvements. The HDR Team will work closely with the City and SUMC to develop the goals and objectives of up to six (6) community forums and help to inform topics for community pop-up activities.
Community Forum First Round: Possibilities and Needs
The HDR Team will provide strategic support for the first round of community forums.
This round of meetings will be key to inform and engage the community around topics related to BRT, such as technology, service delivery, stations, infrastructure, transit-oriented communities, first/last mile, complete streets, equity, and the overall planning process. We will provide technical content for agendas, presentations and materials to inform community forum topics and small group breakout activities. Our team of technical and community engagement specialists can be available to facilitate small group conversations and activities, and we will draw on our deep knowledge of local Corridor communities to tailor content to the neighborhoods where each forum will take place.
Community Forum Second Round: Concepts and Recommendations Following the development of BRT project concepts and technical analyses to develop proposed recommendations, the HDR Team will support the City and SUMC to develop a second round of community forums. The intent of the second round is to share the results of technical analyses with the community, provide data and technical information supporting BRT concepts, and discuss initial recommendations for implementation of the Vision Plan. It will be important to schedule the second round of forums once the initial recommendations have been developed, to ensure that community input, feedback, and preferences can be incorporated in the decisionmaking process. We will work with SUMC to develop interactive and engaging activities to collect input on recommendations. The HDR Team will provide technical content for presentations and related materials.
For both rounds of community forums, HDR assumes SUMC will take the lead on planning logistics, outreach, printing, translation/interpretation, and other event details. The HDR Team also assumes SUMC will synthesize and summarize input from the community forums and activities. HDR will review and integrate relevant feedback into project alternatives and the overall project approach.
At least one representative from the HDR Team will attend each of the six (6) forums for up to 2 hours per forum. The HDR Team assumes only attending or staffing the 6 forums of Task 4.5 unless additional resources are identified. HDR can develop reusable technical content (such as existing conditions information or proposed roadway/BRT graphics for a flyer, fact sheet, poster, or other event materials) for SUMC and the City to use at any additional pop-up engagement events aside from the community forums.
4.6 On-line Survey of Proposed Concepts and Recommendations Once preliminary project concepts are ready for public feedback, HDR will develop up to one (1) version of an online and paper format survey to reach community members and stakeholders not able to attend or aware of other project engagement activities.
These surveys will follow a ranking style format to guide survey respondents toward constructive and consensus-building feedback. The survey will utilize images, graphics, and other visually engaging content as much as possible. Similar to Public Surveys (Task 4.4), we assume HDR will lead development of survey questions and At HDR, we are committed to equity both in the services we deliver to our clients and in the transportation solutions we plan and design for our communities. This commitment is demonstrated through our wealth of experience in meaningful and inclusive engagement with marginalized communities and organizations across Los Angeles County.
24 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
formatting. We assume SUMC will lead distribution of both digital and paper surveys, and that SUMC will collect and synthesize survey findings to share with HDR. HDR also assumes the Survey of Proposed Concepts and Recommendations will undergo up to one (1) round of review and edits from SUMC and the City.
Survey content will follow accessibility standards for all project materials (Task 4.1) and will be reviewed for readership accessibility, language translation, and disability accessibility factors. HDR will provide accessibility checks for digital and paper surveys. Surveys will be produced in English and Spanish at a minimum and may be translated into other relevant languages as needed. HDR assumes SUMC will provide any needed translation for survey questions and content.
Task 5: Plan Development
The Vision Plan will include multiple alternatives analyses and visualized concepts for BRT options along the 16.7-mile Corridor. We deeply understand the regional context of the project and are prepared to assist the City in moving the Vision Plan through the approval phase. Our thorough understanding of the Corridor is further detailed on page 29.
5.1 BRT and ATP Alternatives
The HDR Team will refresh the prior transit propensity and demand analysis we conducted along the corridor. This new analysis will include connectivity to Metrolink, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), and Metro rail systems. Analyses for this task will highlight the design flexibility of BRT corridors and will be applied to different BRT configuration alternatives, from enhanced transit and coordinated signal timing to dedicated BRT lanes on the existing roadway.
HDR will develop typical sections for integrated multimodal alternatives for segments of the Corridor that may include transitway alternatives (center-running bus lanes, curbside/side-running bus lanes, curbside bus/bicycle lanes, curbside mixed-flow lanes) and multimodal/complete streets facilities (bicycle lanes, separated bikeways, medians/refuge islands, bulb-outs, bus stop islands, on-street parking). Ancillary impacts from these various configurations may also be analyzed, such as street parking impacts, active transportation connections, queue jumps at congested intersections, bus stop shade, and opportunities for economic development. Further, any design transitions between different roadway configurations will also be assessed in the BRT alternatives analysis.
Based on input from the Corridor agencies, HDR will develop recommended interim and final alternatives. These alternatives will take into consideration funding availability, ATP projects already programmed, consistency with adopted local Mobility Elements and associated capital projects, anticipated development along the Corridor, and political support.
BRT. HDR will build upon the work performed for the 2024 Enhanced Transit Assessment to develop travel time estimates and ridership forecasts for each alternative to assess performance. HDR has a fully developed ridership model using the FTA’s STOPS tool utilizing the preliminary alternatives developed for the Enhanced Transit Assessment. This will allow new alternatives to be added to the model in an expedited manner to produce ridership forecasts that can be used to estimate impacts on VMT and GHG emissions.
ATP. Safe, comfortable, and accessible access to transit demands robust bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. Within each jurisdiction and typical cross section segment of the Corridor, HDR will identify opportunities to increase ATP through safe bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, streetscape treatments, and roadway improvements.
Building upon robust and ongoing engagement, strong data collection and existing conditions assessments, and HDR’s prior analysis of the Corridor, the HDR Team is well-positioned to develop and evaluate BRT alternatives, incorporate the preferred strategy into the Vision Plan, and ultimately lay out a realistic path to implementation for the City and its project partners.
25 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
Efforts to identify ATP opportunities will align with feasible BRT alternatives by roadway segment/intersection, jurisdictional priorities, and key commercial, institutional, and employment destinations along the Corridor. ATP alternatives will be developed in coordination with the City’s Active Transportation Master Plan (Task 7.1).
TOD. HDR will identify key activity centers and evaluate population density, employment density, and other demographic data and to inform the location of stations. Existing zoning and land use plans will be evaluated to determine if transitsupportive codes and policies are in place. The assessment will provide a framework for understanding potential land use changes and associated economic benefits.
The Draft Plan will assess and visualize BRT + ATP + TOD concepts that align with the local priorities identified through engagement with jurisdictions, agencies, and community members. HDR is prepared to provide technical assistance, materials development, and staffing for engagement efforts. Our contributions will support SUMC’s engagement strategies (Tasks 3 and 4) by visualizing various roadway configurations featuring enhanced bus transit options, including benefits and impacts from each alternative. HDR will emphasize how various configurations support safety, mobility, sustainability, and economic development through different communities.
5.2 Implementation and Funding Strategy
Based on the preferred strategy selected for the Corridor, HDR will identify component improvements with independent utility that can be advanced in phases to accelerate the delivery of the overall project, bringing near-term benefits to the Corridor communities.
HDR will develop cost estimates and identify the steps needed to design, environmentally clear, construct, operate, and maintain each component improvement project. Design cost estimates will include rough order of magnitude (ROM) estimates for preliminary and final design, including engineering, architectural, and environmental services. Construction cost estimates will include transit infrastructure development (e.g., new buses, dedicated lanes, stations), utilities relocation, road improvements/ enhancements, and signage/branding. Operational cost estimates will include ROM estimates for ongoing operational costs (e.g., maintenance, staffing, fuel). HDR will also assess a contingency percentage based on project complexity and risk factors that account for contingency costs.
HDR will develop a program management strategy that identifies lead agencies for each component project and a framework for continued coordination along the Corridor. Building upon our successful track record of securing funds for local transportation projects, we will identify local, state, and federal funding sources for each component project, taking into consideration the eligibility criteria, match requirements, anticipated timeline, and competitiveness of each program. HDR will also identify other innovative financing mechanisms, including Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) and TOD financing.
The strategy will include a matrix that groups the BRT and ATP Alternatives into short-, mid-, and long-term scenarios. Each alternative will be linked to the forecasted performance analysis results from Task 2; alignment with the Corridor goals, objectives, and stakeholder input gathered from Tasks 3 and 4; project implementation and lead agency needs; and funding opportunities.
Project implementation needs will also include an operational analysis. Using National Transit Database (NTD) data, the HDR Team will compare current labor (staffing) ratios for Corridor transit operators to comparable transit systems to help determine the optimal staffing levels for each BRT alternative. HDR will also forecast the number of required vehicles needed for the transit system based on the net change in vehicles required. Vehicle requirements will consider current and future average fleet age, spare vehicles, and potential changes in operating speeds resulting from capital infrastructure improvements meant to reduce passenger travel times.
HDR will leverage our experience delivering projects
through the full life cycle of planning and operations to provide the City and its partners with a realistic, achievable, and phased implementation and funding strategy that
guides future development of the Corridor.

To document the project implementation and funding strategy, HDR will prepare a technical memorandum detailing the cost estimates, funding strategies, and interdependencies among tasks to foster efficient project management. The memorandum will include a high-level implementation timeline that outlines key milestones from project conception through to completion, identifying both shortand long-term opportunities. The memorandum will include visual aids as necessary (e.g., graphs, charts) to enhance understanding of financial projections and timelines.
5.3 Plan Document
The Vision Plan will be a visually robust, concise, and user-friendly roadmap to implementation for a new multimodal Corridor that enhances mobility options and quality of life through the six Gateway Cities. The Vision Plan will illustrate the direct connection between stakeholder engagement, data collection/analysis, and enhanced transit alternatives. Most critically, the implementation strategy outlined in the Vision Plan will serve as the next steps toward identifying resources and phasing opportunities for implementation of preferred concepts.
The Administrative Draft Plan will be the culmination of the technical analyses detailed in the previous tasks and the feedback from the meetings and engagement activities in Tasks 3 and 4. The implementation and funding strategy will be incorporated into the Administrative Draft Plan, along with the previously created technical memoranda and reports that collectively document the data, assumptions, methodologies, analysis, and results of the study. Summaries of synthesized stakeholder and community feedback will be included in the Administrative Draft Plan.
This is a significant milestone to continue to build trust in the process and convey that the project team has listened to stakeholder and public input, incorporated their feedback, and successfully outlined how the solutions developed in Task 5 will support the vision, goals, objectives, and transportation needs identified in Tasks 2, 3, 4, and 7.
5.4 Plan Review
This is an opportunity for the City to build support for the Vision Plan across the Corridor cities, transit service providers, policy decision makers/elected officials, SAG members (Task 3.6), and other key stakeholders. The HDR Team will build upon the extensive engagement and fortified relationships from Tasks 3 and 4 and disseminate the Administrative Draft Plan back to the stakeholders who influenced and guided its development. In advance of submitting the Plan, a draft outline and layout will be submitted to the City for confirmation. This Administrative Draft Plan will be submitted to the City in editable format and comments will be documented and addressed in the same format. During Plan Review, HDR will work with the City to address any concerns and drive momentum toward finalizing a Vision Plan that updates the Lakewood/Rosemead Boulevard Complete Streets Master Plan and advances progress toward increased connectivity along Rosemead Boulevard farther north of the Corridor. HDR will also distribute a Draft Plan for public review utilizing the project website with clear directions for the public to submit feedback, and will work with the SAG (Task 3.6) on other methods of dissemination. A summary of public comments received will be documented as part of the Final Plan (Task 6).
Task 6: Final Plan Review and Approval
The Final Plan is an opportunity for the City to demonstrate they heard feedback from stakeholders and the public, considered their input, and incorporated their feedback accordingly. The HDR Team will work with City staff to review feedback received from stakeholders and the public on the Draft Plan and decide how feedback will be incorporated into the Final Plan. HDR will work with the City and SUMC to present the revised Draft Plan to GCCOG for approval and will integrate edits into the Final Plan.
The Final Plan will include a summary of next steps toward implementation. It will credit FHWA, FTA, and/or Caltrans on the cover or title page. HDR will work with the City to provide Caltrans with an electronic copy of the Final Plan that is accessible per the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1994.
HDR understands that the Vision Plan and its associated regional concurrence are critical to the development of the Corridor, including funding for final design and construction at both the state and federal levels.
27 City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan E. Work Approach
The Final Plan is not only a roadmap for the City of Pico Rivera but can be a communication tool to rally diverse stakeholders along the Corridor toward a common goal—to get to implementation. This is an opportunity for the City to garner public support, build political will, and obtain the funding and investments needed to deliver much needed transportation improvements in the region. This includes communicating the contents of the Final Plan to diverse audiences.
HDR will support the City every step of the way, from alignment on project outcomes to approval of a Final Vision Plan. We will work closely with project partners and local stakeholders to ensure their input is reflected in the Final Plan.
Task 7: Coordination with Active Transportation Master Plan To support the City’s multiple and concurrent transportation planning efforts, the HDR Team will coordinate and maintain communication with the City’s ATMP consultant to align the ATP recommendations and alternatives presented in the Vision Plan with the City’s forthcoming ATMP. HDR anticipates that work conducted under Task 7 will occur in an appropriate order for overall project flow, and will therefore be completed in alignment with earlier tasks (Tasks 2 and 5, specifically).
Task 7.1 Conceptual Design Alternatives
The HDR Team will participate in up to one (1) design charrette with the ATMP consultant to share ATP and BRT conceptual design alternatives and recommendations. HDR has extensive experience working with multidisciplinary teams in highly participatory charrette processes locally, regionally, and nationally.
The HDR Team will present BRT alternatives and assumes the ATMP consultant will present ATP alternatives. HDR assumes the charrette will be no more than 2 hours in duration and will include an option to join virtually. The HDR Team will work with the City and ATMP consultant to schedule and conduct this charrette ahead of finalizing Task 5 (Plan Development). HDR will support development of agenda items and assumes the City will take the lead in finalizing the charrette agenda and serving in a lead facilitator role during the charrette.
Task 7.2 Cost Estimates
The HDR Team will perform one (1) review of cost estimates for the bikeway improvements provided by the ATMP consultant. HDR will integrate the cost estimates for proposed ATP alternatives along the Corridor with the overall project and alternatives cost estimates developed for Task 5.2 (Implementation and Funding Strategy).
HDR’s Deputy Project Manager, Naomi Iwasaki, is a proven consensus builder experienced in working with a diverse range of stakeholders to address challenging transportation issues. As part of the City of LA’s Great Street Program, she convened with multisector project partners—including residents, business owners, design consultants, and city agency staff—to identify quick-build streetscape improvements along major commercial corridors. This included evaluating design options and enhancement locations through a series of meetings and workshops.

Appendix: Exceptions to Professional Services Agreement APP-22
City of Pico Rivera | Rosemead/Lakewood Boulevard Complete Corridor Vision Plan Appendix: Exceptions to Professional Services Agreement Exceptions to Professional Services Agreement
HDR has reviewed the professional services agreement provided with the RFP (Appendix B) and respectfully requests further discussions on the following modifications.
SECTION/PAGE PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS RATIONALE
5.2, Page 31 Consultant shall perform all work to the highest professional standards of Consultant’s profession and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to City accordance with the requirements of this Agreement.
The word “highest” can create an elevated, uninsurable, and arguably unobtainable standard for our services. HDR’s services should be judged against contractual obligations, not our client’s subjective satisfaction. 11, Page 32
All reports, documents, or other written material (“written products”) developed by Consultant in the performance of this Agreement shall be and remain the property of City without restriction or limitation upon its use or dissemination by City. However, any modification or reuse of the written products for purposes other than those intended by this Agreement shall be at City’s sole risk and without liability to Consultant.
HDR requests this language to limit our liability for modification/reuse of our work. We can’t foresee or control these things and shouldn’t be held liable.
15.1, Page 33
The Parties agree that City, its officers, agents, elected and appointed officials, employees, affiliated public agencies and volunteers should, to the extent permitted by law, be fully protected from any loss, injury, damage, claim, lawsuit, cost, expense, attorneys’ fees, litigation costs, or any other cost arising out of or in any way related to the performance of this Agreement that are subject to Consultant’s indemnification obligations in this Section 15.
This statement is not accurate and would be a broad form indemnity that’s uninsurable.
16.10, Page 36
Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. At the option of City, Consultant shall either reduce or eliminate the deductibles or self-insured retentions with respect to City, or Consultant shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and expenses.
HDR can’t change these arrangements for any one client/contract.
17.1, Page 37
City shall provide Consultant with all pertinent data, documents and other requested information as is reasonably available to City for the proper performance of Consultant’s services under this Agreement. Consultant shall be entitled to rely upon such documents and information, provided that Consultant will provide City prompt written notice of any known defects in such documents and information.
The additional languages addresses the concern of a potential obligation to independently verify, or even assume responsibility, for defective information supplied to us.
22.1, Page 38
City shall have the right to terminate this Agreement for any reason on five (5) calendar days’ written notice to Consultant, provided that City will not terminate for cause without providing Consultant written notice of the breach and a period of ten (10) days to cure.
HDR requests an express/mandatory cure opportunity before termination for cause can occur in order to have an opportunity to avoid the negative consequences associated with this type of termination.
22.1, Page 38
Consultant agrees that in the event of such termination, City’s obligation to pay Consultant shall be limited to payment only for those services satisfactorily rendered, as solely determined by the City provided in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, prior to the effective date of termination.
The original language gives the City a large amount of discretion to determine if we will be paid for our services, which could be problematic if there is an active dispute should termination occur.
22.2, Page 38
If City terminates this Agreement due to no fault or failure of performance by Consultant, then Consultant shall be paid based on the work satisfactorily performed, as solely determined by the City provided in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, at the time of termination.
The original language gives the City a large amount of discretion to determine if we will be paid for our services, which could be problematic if there is an active dispute should termination occur. 350 S Grand Avenue

Task 5.2 adjustments – December 2024
October 7, 2024 RFP Scope of Work:
Task 5.2 – Implementation and Funding Strategy
1. The consultant will prepare a phased implementation plan that identifies and proposes physical improvements, operations and maintenance considerations, phasing, cost estimates, and steps for pursuing funds for planning, approval, environmental documentation, full design, and construction. It will identify local, regional, state, and federal funding and financing strategies and sources with details on what each one can address such as capital improvements, feasibility analysis, environmental review, property acquisition, engineering design and construction documents, vehicles, maintenance, and operations. The plan will also include a proposed management strategy with prospective lead entities to carry the project beyond this initial planning stage.
2. *NEW SCOPE – December 3, 2024*
Based on a conversation with the City of Pico Rivera (“City”) HDR understands a new subtask for Task 5.2 will be to facilitate support amongst corridor cities for an Early Action Plan for the project corridor as a priority network for the upcoming 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The consultant will support development of the Early Action Plan with a feasibility analysis of implementing Transit Signal Priority (TSP) along the project corridor and an early striping and signage plan based on early acceptance by cities of allowing busonly lanes along certain sections along the corridor. TSP analysis is anticipated to include obtaining existing traffic signal information from each agency, coordinating with Metro on timing for establishing MOUs with each agency and the cost for signal priority cloud software, determining required signal equipment upgrades along the project corridor, and calculating the effort to re-time each signal. Early striping and signage plan feasibility analysis is anticipated to include review of existing and proposed striping for potential early implementation, determination of any signage modifications that would be required, and calculation of effort to produce the required plans and specifications within the broader project implementation strategy.
Task 5.2 Deliverables (updated December 2024):
- Report providing an explanation of TSP
- Draft outline of an early striping and signage plan
- Implementation strategy, including cost, schedule, and requirements for implementation (including TSP and early striping and signage plan) Name of Proposer

Meeting Date: January 14, 2025
Subject: APPROPRIATE FUNDS FROM THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF RESOURCES RECYCLING AND
RECOVERY FUND BALANCE
Recommendation:
1. Approve an appropriation of $165,978 from the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) Fund Unassigned Fund Balance and amend the fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 budget by increasing expenditures in the same amount to GL Account No. 671.11.1110-54400 (Professional Services) GL Account No. 671.11.1110-53500 (Small Tools and Equipment) and, GL Account No. 671.11.1110-51100 (Salaries).
Fiscal Impact:
The City of Pico Rivera received an award of $165,978 from CalRecycle in FY 2023-24.
To facilitate the implementation of the grant programming, appropriations are required.
Upon approval by the City Council, the budgets for the following will increase by:
• $100,000 for GL Account No. 671.11.1110-54400 (Professional Services) • $53,978 for GL Account No. 671.11.1110-53500 (Small Tools and Equipment) • $12,000 for GL Account No. 671.11.1110-51100 (Salaries) Background:
In September 2016, Senate Bill (SB) 1383 was signed into law, establishing statewide emissions reduction targets; the legislation requires local jurisdictions to achieve a 50% reduction in organic waste diversion from landfills from 2014 levels by 2020 and a 75% reduction by 2025. As of January 1, 2022, SB 1383 requires that the City provide organic waste collection to all residents and businesses, implement mechanisms for enforcement, and conduct education and outreach. Finally, SB 1383 requires that the City enforce organic waste diversion mandates against non-compliant entities beginning January 1, 2024; otherwise, the City can be subjected to enforcement actions (i.e., penalties) from CalRecycle.
Discussion:
In February 2024, the City was awarded a grant under the SB 1383 Local Assistance 8 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT – MEETING OF JANUARY 14, 2025
