US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • July 2024 • 113 intersections, ramp metering, a new off-ramp bridge and complex staging. Expedited approvals were completed for mandatory and advisory design exceptions and longitudinal utility encroachment exceptions approval through Caltrans Headquarters. Consor was able to capture over $16 million in construction funding for this project which is currently under construction.

US 50/PHASE 1 HOV LANE (PS&E), El Dorado County, CA;
Project Manager. Responsible for preparing the PS&E of initial improvements within the corridor (Phase 1 HOV Lane Project), which were constructed as part of the Governor’s Corridor Mobility Improvement Account (Prop 1B). This complex project was delivered in less than 12 months from notice to proceed to advertised construction documents. Development of the project plans included coordinating with five separate environmental documents, performing an environmental revalidation during the PS&E phase, developing complex stage construction plans for replacement of the Latrobe Road UC while maintaining local road access within the interchange, widening of the Clarksville UC, coordination of high risk utility facilities, obtaining approval for a Longitudinal Utility Encroachment Exception from Caltrans, approvals of mandatory and advisory design exceptions and developing a pavement rehabilitation strategy for 3-miles on mainline U.S. 50. Pavement rehabilitation included establishing a new profile grade, variable depth paving, and cross slope corrections.

STATE ROUTE 20/WESTERN PARKWAY, YUBA CITY, CA; Project
Manager. Responsible for delivery of a PSR/PR, preparing the environmental document, obtaining City approval for local street access modifications, obtaining California Transportation Commission approval for a new connection to State Route 20, and developing the project plans, specifications, and estimate for this major intersection and local street improvement project.

This project was delivered in two phases, the first phase of improvements were included in a construction contract change order to an on-going Caltrans administered contract on SR20 to perform pavement rehabilitation on the mainline highway. This first phase required development of the change order, specifications and estimate for the Caltrans Resident Engineer to negotiate and administer in the field. Improvements implemented were widening SR 20 for a right & left turn pockets, paving the median, correcting superelevation and drainage improvements. This approach saved the City over $1 million in estimated capital improvement costs.

The second phase involved construction of the local street “T” Intersection improvements which included utility relocations, signals, lighting, drainage, Caltrans right-of-way mapping, recording quit claim deeds for Caltrans and local agency right-of-way changes.

The second phase was constructed by the local agency under a Caltrans encroachment permit.

OLD DAVIS ROUNDABOUT, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, DAVIS;
Project Engineer. A project to improve the Old Davis Road intersection with California Avenue on the campus of the University of California, Davis. This intersection is the main campus entrance for Interstate 80 traffic exiting to the campus. The improvements are compatible with future facility expansion plans adjacent to the project area. This required the Consor team to utilize AutoCAD files from the university’s GIS system for base mapping preparation. The project had an expedited delivery time line which required the final PS&E package to be developed within a four-month time frame.

PEASE ROAD INTERCHANGE PROJECT REPORT, CITY OF YUBA
CITY, CA; Project Manager. Responsible for developing interchange alternatives and preparing the Project Report and coordinating the Environmental Document for this interchange project. Interchange alternatives included a Type L-2 with roundabouts at the ramp intersections, a Type L-7, and a Type L-9.

Responsible for the preparation of the PSR for the interchange improvements at the Del Rio Road/US 101 Interchange. The improvements consist of two roundabouts, one at each ramp termini and planning for a third roundabout at the local frontage road. Dace worked closely with the internal and external team members to successfully complete the PID phase of the project.

US 101/BETTERAVIA INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS, City of Santa Maria, CA; Project Manager. The City of Santa Maria was experiencing a large amount of development on the Enos Ranchos property just west of the US 101/Betteravia Interchange. As a result of this development and other growth within the City, improvements to the interchange were needed. Dace and her team worked with the City to develop an interim solution to increase vehicle storage on eastbound Betteravia for vehicles wanting to access northbound US 101 and widening the southbound US 101 offramp to accommodate a dedicated right turn lane. Dace was the Project Manager responsible for the PS&E package for the improvements and the PEER document for the Caltrans Encroachment Permit. The project offered much needed relief for the interchange and allowed the City to work with Caltrans on needed long term improvements to the interchange.

PRADO ROAD BRIDGE WIDENING, City of San Luis Obispo, CA; Roadway Project Engineer. The existing bridge is a constriction point for vehicles traveling along Prado Road between South Higuera and US 101 and is in need of widening for current and future traffic volumes. The existing three-span bridge structure is going to be replaced with a single-span bridge to offer protection to an existing 24-inch diameter gravity sewer line in times of high-flow. A dual retaining wall system will be constructed along the creek banks to provide additional hydraulic capacity and sour protection for the new bridge.

CENTRAL AVENUE OVERPASS, City of Newark, CA; Independent Check. Responsible for the independent check of the overhead structure for Central Avenue over the Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) right-of-way, between Sycamore Street and Morton Avenue. The bridge structure is a 940-foot-long,, seven-span precast, prestressed California Wide Flange bridge. The bridge is supported on large diameter cast-in-drilled hole concrete piles. The design and the check of the bridge was made additionally more complicated given the varying heights of the bents. This resulted in the need to balance the stiffnesses between the eight supports to meet current Caltrans Seismic Design Criteria. This balance was achieved through different connections between the superstructure and substructure and between the dropped bent cap and the concrete columns. The bridge width varied from just over 74 feet wide to 84 feet wide. Given the amount of variations in the geometry of the bridge, an independent check was performed on all eight supports, the seven girder spans, and multiple girders per span.

BELLO STREET BRIDGE REPLACEMENT (HBP), City of Pismo Beach, CA; Project Engineer.

Responsible or the preliminary engineering and final PS&E for this bridge replacement project.

Consor approached the City of Pismo Beach with an opportunity to secure HBP funding for a bridge that was identified as a “closed bridge” (i.e., a bridge taken out of the National Bridge Inventory [NBI] and therefore not eligible for Federal Funding). Consor got the bridge added back into the NBI and therefore eligible for HBP funding. This project provides a key link back into the City’s network and direct access to the City’s recreation fields and maintenance facilities. The bridge also connects the City’s bike and pedestrian trails.

SANTA LUCIA BRIDGE REPLACEMENT (HBP), City of Atascadero, CA; Project Engineer. Responsible for the replacement of the existing 45-foot-long, conventionally-reinforced concrete T-beam span.

This structure is located within a narrow strip of City right-of-way and is flanked by private property on both sides. This condition presented a challenge as the bridge provides the sole access to this rural residential area. Given the higher ADT, keeping traffic open during construction was a primary consideration. Consor presented several traffic staging alternatives to the City along with the pros and cons of each alternative. This allowed the City to make the best decision for their residents which resulted in less public impact and political fallout.

Task 3.0 - Project Vision and Handoff
The City and the PA&ED design team have been working on this project for several years. It will be important that the Consor team has access to the design files and personnel from the previous phases of work. This is imperative to allow our team to hit the ground running and deliver the PS&E phase in a timely manner.

TASK 3.1 - PREVIOUS WORK INVENTORY
Consor will develop a tracking spreadsheet to serve as an inventory of the previous work completed. The tracking spreadsheet will include a description of the material received, the date received, the format of the material, and a brief description of the usefulness of the materials.

TASK 3.2 - HANDOFF MEETINGS
The Consor Project Manager, Deputy PM, and Project Engineers will attend three meetings with the City and PA&ED Design team. The purpose of these meetings will be to discuss and better understand the How and Why’s of the preliminary design and layout.

TASK 3 DELIVERABLES
> Previous work tracking spreadsheet (Excel)
> Attendance, agenda, and meeting notes for three (2 in person and 1 virtual) meetings > Project Handoff Memorandum and Updated Scope of Work (PDF) Task 4.0 - Surveying/Topographic Mapping
To support the planning, design, and engineering effort for the proposed Prado Road Interchange Project, current and accurate survey information will be required to provide the design team with existing conditions and right of way alignment.

This task includes providing a topographic, boundary, right of way, easement mapping, with specific additional mapping related to Flood Study Mapping, compiled in a survey base map to support of the design of the project. Figure 1 shows the approximate area to be surveyed.

TASK 4.1 - FIELD WORK/ TOPOGRAPHIC DATA COLLECTION
The survey mapping will be constrained horizontally to the California Coordinate System of 1983 (CCS83), Zone 5 projection and vertically to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) as established locally by constraining to the City of San Luis Obispo’s horizontal and vertical control networks. Our surveyors will set semi-permanent survey control points near the expected project limits for future use as control for construction staking by others.

The aerial mapping will cover approximately 80 acres of land, including a variable width strip of approximately 4,700 feet of US 101 and 1,800 feet of Prado Road, along with 1,600 feet of Elks Lane. The limits of the aerial mapping is outlined in blue in Figure 1. The aerial mapping will be compiled from data collection techniques, including high altitude aerial photogrammetry and aerial LiDAR to enhance the digital elevation model in areas of dense brush. Photography will be

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 5 of 50 captured at an elevation appropriate for a mapping scale of 1” = 20’, with a one foot contour interval digital terrain model surface.

The aerial mapping will serve as the base mapping layer and be supplemented by field survey densification and augmentation. Just as the ultimate aerial mapping limits have and will be closely coordinated together with the design team, the extent and focus of the field survey augmentation will also be.

Working closely with the Consor team the aerial mapping will be augmented with field survey. This is depicted by the green line in Figure 1. We also anticipate providing field densification of Figure 1 Limits of surveying and topographic mapping
the digital elevation model and in support of conform design at approximately six (6) locations, covering approximately 9.3 acres, including almost 4,000 feet of the easterly pavement of the north bound lanes of US 101. Shown in pink in Figure 1.

In support of the drainage analysis we have coordinated our efforts with the design and analysis team. Our scope of work includes providing up to 10 cross sections of the San Luis Obispo Creek upstream and downstream of the Prado Road Bridge. As part of our work for the City of San Luis Obispo’s Prado Road Bridge Widening Project, we collected detailed topographic information of San Luis Obispo Creek around the existing bridge. We will review this data and incorporate survey measurements and topographic survey that remains sufficiently accurate at the time of the survey mapping for this project, including mapping of the Prado Road bridge and the Bob Jones Bike Trail Bridge and creek cross sections. For budgeting purposes, we have assumed that the topography related to the fixed works, i.e.pavement, footings, railings, etc. will be able to be used, and that measurements of the ground surface will need to be updated. We do not anticipate surveying tree locations. We will also measure the finished floor elevations of buildings located within the drainage analysis area of interest.

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 6 of 50 For budgeting purposes, we have included three field survey days to complete this work and associated office time and have assumed that the outreach to building owners will be completed by the City of San Luis Obispo, or others. The limits of the area that building finished floors will be measured is shown in cyan.

These techniques and approaches will result in mapping showing such visible features as edges of pavements, curb, gutter, sidewalk, driveways, walls, fences, street signs, road striping, utility poles and structures, overhead utility lines, manholes, inlets, subsurface drainage system flow lines, culvert diameters, utility markings, fire hydrants, buildings, trees four inches in diameter and larger measured at breast height, brush and vegetation lines, and other items typical to standard practice.

Our scope includes two (2) days of traffic control for mapping and locating monuments within the vehicular traveled way and if needed for topographic measurements. We assume no additional traffic control will be needed.

To reduce the overall need for traffic control safety and to more safely collect survey measurements in and around vehicular traffic, we will use various remote sensing technologies. Wallace Group survey crews are equipped with Trimble’s SX10 scanning total station and Trimble X7 terrestrial scanner. Surveying with these devices results in information rich, high density, colorized point clouds of the areas of interest they are deployed within.

This results in conform pavement level survey measurements of areas of US 101 and other busy roads without placing survey crew field staff near, around or within high speed traffic. At the same time, resulting in the needed survey measurements that are typical to pavement surveys within the proposed project areas, while also collecting additional dense geometric information of the surrounding areas. As the project develops, and possible conform locations shift, it is possible that sufficient measurements have already been collected and stored in the point cloud model. Instead of having a change in design result in a new unexpected survey field crew site visit, using these tools results in an efficient extraction of critical measurements from the already collected dense point clouds. Further, these point cloud models can be utilized graphically in support of project rendering that clearly convey project intent to the lay public. Deploying these tools in this manner mitigates Caltrans’ Survey Manual instructions and concerns regarding weighing the value and need of pavement level accuracy measurement against the safety concerns of the public.

Topographic measurements and information collected as part of this task will be compiled into a single Civil 3d, 2024 or newer, drawing file and will be referenced into and be part of our survey base map and deliverable.

TASK 4.2 - RIGHT-OF-WAY, BOUNDARY, AND EASEMENT SURVEYS Our survey team anticipates locating sufficient monuments to establish portions record right of ways a several City of San Luis Obispo public streets, US 101 and the property sidelines of properties adjacent to these stretches within the proposed survey densification and augmentation project area. This includes re- establishment of the record location of the following right of way:

1. Prado Road: Approximately 1,600 feet of Prado Road easterly of the US 101 right of way.

2. Prado Road: That portion of the paper Prado Road right of way located easterly of US 101 being Lot 303 as shown on map of Tract 3096.

3. Dalidio Drive and Froom Ranch Way: That portion of Dalidio Drive and Froom Ranch Way located easterly of Lot 303 and within the project area.

4. US 101: Approximately 2,500 feet of US 101 right of way northerly of Prado Road and approximately 1,500 feet of US 101 right of way located southerly of Prado Road, for approximately 4,000 feet total.

We will also re-establish the approximate locations of the property sidelines that are adjacent to these right of ways.

Wallace Group has surveyed several of these properties in the past, or portion thereof, or properties that are very near or adjacent to the properties that are within the survey limits for this projects. More importantly, Wallace Group has a greater level of experience surveying several of the properties that the project may impact.

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 7 of 50 Our team has included scope and budget to assist and support the City in researching and if necessary, processing revisions to the several APN’s that were created as private open space and agricultural easements as a result of Tract 3096 which have encumbered the western side of US 101. This also includes the potential impact to the private “Billboard Easement”.

As part of the right of way effort, our team will also review preliminary title reports for the properties adjacent to the road right of ways within the project limits and near proposed project improvements in an effort to research, discover and plot easements that may impact the project. For budgeting purposes, we have included purchasing and reviewing up to 15 preliminary title reports with an average cost of $600, and plotting up to two easements per title report.

For budgeting purposes, we have assumed that no material discrepancies will be discovered as part of this task and that this task will not require a record of survey.

The information discovered and re-established as part of this task will be compiled in a single unique Civil 3d, 2024 or newer, drawing file and will be referenced into the survey base map and deliverable.

TASK 4.3 - ROAD ALIGNMENTS
Consor and Wallace Group will work closely to plot road construction alignments for US 101 mainlines, on and off ramps, and the City of San Luis Obispo Prado Road, Elks Lane and Dalidio Drive. For US 101, the Caltrans right of way maps will be used for the alignment control and for the City of San Luis Obispo roads, we will base the alignment off provided information, or the team will create best fit alignments.

The road alignment will be compiled in a single Civil 3d, 2024 or newer, drawing file, and be part of our survey base map and deliverables.

TASK 5.10 DELIVERABLES:
> Administrative Draft, Draft, and Final Environmental Permitting Memorandum (PDF) Task 6.0 - Value Analysis
At the end of the PA&ED phase, the City conducted a hybrid Value Analysis that looked at six improvements to be considered in the next phase of work (five were determined to be viable). The focus of the previous work was to reduce the overall cost of the improvements. During this task, the Consor team will review the five viable improvements. Our team recommends we revalidate the design criteria and concepts considered in the previous phase. In addition, to the five improvements, our team suggests addressing the following elements that were not considered in the previous phase:
> Revalidate traffic analysis (Optional Task)
> Reducing the width of the overcrossing structure
> Fine tuning the limits and impacts to the floodplain by shortening the elevated portion of the project and the use of retaining walls with culvert openings

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 12 of 50 > Location of stormwater treatment facilities, including maintenance > Roadway drainage – City drainage versus Caltrans drainage > Relocation of wet utilities – water and recycled water lines > Use of sustainable materials, such as “Green” concrete > Determination of appropriate sustainable rating program to utilize > Review best practices for area underneath the elevated structures TASK 6.1 - DRAFT VALUE ANALYSIS REPORT
The Consor team will prepare a draft report that addresses the five design items previously discussed and the items listed above that the team, the City and Caltrans agrees should be addressed. The aesthetics for the Prado Road corridor will be developed in Task 7.0. These elements will be summarized in the Draft Value Analysis Report. The Draft report will document the process and decisions made during our Design Charrette meetings. Cost estimates will be summarized in the report. The Draft report will be prepared after the preferred alternative is chosen.

Task 6.1.1 - Design Charrettes (City and Caltrans)
The Consor Project Manager, Deputy Project Manager, Bridge and Roadway Project Engineers, Landscape Architect and Brian Ray will lead three (3) design charrettes with the City and Caltrans. The focus of the first design charrette will be to discuss and prioritize the potential improvements to be reviewed as part of the Value Analysis or revalidation process. The next two meetings will concentrate on the specific project improvements and the design team’s solutions to the concerns raised during the first meeting. In addition to the design charrette meetings, our Wet Utilities team will meet twice (2) with City utility staff to discuss the needs of the Wet Utilities within the project limits.

Task 6.1.2 - Conceptual Roll Map/Bridge Advance Plans
The Consor team will prepare a Conceptual Roll Map and Bridge Advance Plans of Alternative 3A to our first design charrette meeting as a starting point for the Validation Analysis. We will prepare two (2) conceptual plans and Bridge APS for the second meeting with the goal of gathering comments from the City and Caltrans. The goal for the third meeting would be to prepare two (2) conceptual plans and bridge APS and drill down in on the preferred concept.

Task 6.1.3 - Renderings of Preferred Alternative
After the third design charrette the design team will have a preferred alternative that incorporates those elements and revisions that the design team, City and Caltrans agree should be the basis for the preparation of the 50% Plans. The design team will create a 3-D model that will be rendered and colored. The rendering will be provided to the City and Caltrans for comment. We can provide the rendering as a roll map and/or as an electronic file format.

Task 6.1.4 - Cost Estimates
Understanding the costs associated with the options being explored during this task will be vital to making informed decisions. The team will prepare planning level (11 page estimate) cost estimates for each alternative. The estimate will be broken down to provide the City and Caltrans the cost for each element. We will prepare a total of six (6) estimates – one for Alternative 3A, two for each of the conceptual plans presented at the design charrettes and a final cost estimate for the preferred alternative.

A comment form will be prepared and submitted. The comment form will document the comment, response, and any further explanation as necessary.

TASK 6.2 DELIVERABLES:
> Draft Final and Final Value Analysis Report (PDF)
TASK 6.3 - VALIDATION OF TRAFFIC ANALYSIS (OPTIONAL)
This task is optional. The Consor team would encourage the City to consider a revalidation of the traffic analysis that was completed as part of the PID and PA&ED phases. We are not proposing to reanalyze all the intersections the original traffic study included. With the age of the traffic counts and the fact that they were done pre-pandemic, our team is suggesting updated traffic counts, an updated forecast model, and a future project compatibility. It is critical that the entire team is assured that the preferred alternative geometrics are still valid. This work will be led by DKS with support from Consor.

Task 6.3.1 - Update Traffic Counts and TOAR Volume Set Comparison This task is meant to determine the effects travel demand changes related to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent increase in work from home activity as well as traffic generated from recent development in the vicinity of the project (San Luis Ranch development) since the 2019 TOAR counts were collected. As part of this task, DKS will review up to 15 intersections including locations along Prado Road, South Higuera Street, Madonna Road, Los Osos Valley Road, and Froom Ranch Way as appropriate based on recent developments and targeted local intersections of concern for the City.

To the greatest extent possible, DKS will use counts from the City of San Luis Obispo’s count program, but our scope and fee includes the need for new counts at all study locations. Our team will also utilize available Caltrans PeMS stations to compare volume changes on US 101 between 2019 and 2024. This analysis is focused on operations and thus daily counts have not been included in this scope.

This analysis will be focused on direct volume comparisons during the AM and PM peak hours to help determine if there are any opportunities in the Value Analysis Investigation in Phase I. A ground truth of current traffic numbers will help inform the team’s decision-making process and may be potentially useful in supporting grant applications.

Our team will meet virtually with the City and Caltrans to discuss count locations and another time to discuss and review our findings.

Task 6.3.2 - Revalidation Assessment
Depending on the results of the Updated Traffic Counts and TOAR Volume Set Comparison, there may be a need to reanalyze the traffic operations previously reviewed in the TOAR. This can include intersection operations and freeway merge- diverge analysis. This analysis is not intended to reopen the environmental analysis and it is strictly meant to determine if the new base year traffic volumes would result in different needs for the interchange. This analysis will make adjustments to the 2050 design year volume set developed for the TOAR amendment based on the newly collected counts.

No new forecasting will be conducted as part of this task.

Our team will reanalyze existing conditions and design year traffic operations to determine if there have been any significant changes to the facility sizing needs based on five years of traffic growth since the previous analysis was initiated.

This analysis may also include some limited analysis of additional intersections which were not included in the 2023 TOAR Addendum (e.g. intersections along Froom Ranch Road which did not previously exist) based on City input and the locations collected in the previous task. This task assumes that all Synchro, HCS, Sidra, and Travel Demand model output files produced by GHD for the TOAR will be made available for use for this analysis.

Our scope includes three virtual meetings; one to discuss the revalidation needs, one to coordinate with GHD on file transfer

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 14 of 50 needs, and one to review our findings.

Task 6.3.3 - Future Compatibility Assessment
This task will take the work of the previous two tasks one step further and evaluate the traffic compatibility of the proposed interchange design with the previously considered options for providing ramps to and/or from US 101 southbound. Prior planning documents identified a need for access to the southbound freeway at Prado Road to relieve traffic stress off Madonna Road and Los Osos Valley Road. This task will re-analyze the interchange with up to two southbound ramp configurations to determine if the currently proposed design is compatible with potential future needs. This analysis will be focused on ultimate roadway sizing needs, intersection spacing, traffic operations, and queueing which may result from the addition southbound US 101 access.

This work will inform the Value Analysis Investigation to ensure that the interchange as proposed does not preclude the ability to address potential future traffic needs. The southbound ramp options were not analyzed in the TOAR and this analysis is meant to determine if the additional southbound freeway access may be warranted before the project design year. This analysis assumes using the analysis files obtained as part of previous task as a starting point for analysis. New forecasts will be developed as part of this task to include the southbound ramp access as well as any additional land uses near the interchange which may not have been previously considered. This task is not meant to be used for final concept development or environmental clearance for the southbound freeway access. This analysis is specifically meant to determine if there are any modifications to the currently proposed design which would allow for this future option and how likely it is that this option will be needed by the design year. If the southbound ramps are found to not be needed, this report could also help inform which aspects of the design could be modified to save on cost for not needing to account for this additional infrastructure.

Our scope includes four virtual meetings; one to discuss alternatives for evaluation, one to discuss preliminary results, and two to discuss comments and review final results.

TASK 6.3 (OPTIONAL) DELIVERABLES:
> Updated 2024 traffic count sheets
> Draft and Final Memorandum of Findings – comparing previous 2019 counts with the 2024 counts > Draft and Final Memorandum summarizing the revised existing conditions and design year analysis > Draft and Final Report summarizing the findings of the FCA TASK 6.4 - LEED/ENVISION/GREENROADS MEMORANDUM OF FEASIBILITY During the Public Meeting for Phase I, our team will discuss ways to incorporate sustainable elements into the project and reduce greenhouse gas emissions during construction. This collaborative effort with the City, Caltrans, and the public will help define and establish sustainability goals, priorities, preferred alternatives, and develop feasible designs for the project.

A pre-assessment checklist will be used to quickly compare project alternatives before key project decisions have been finalized. Establishing goals and priorities will help determine which sustainability rating system(s) would be appropriate to select for this project, and that will be further developed in Phase II.

After the public meeting, and the development of the pre-assessment checklist, our team will prepare a Memorandum to discuss the feasibility of incorporating these elements, recommend the most applicable sustainability rating system, likelihood of obtaining certification from the program and our team’s recommendation for Phase II.

TASK 7.1 - DEVELOP RENDERINGS (3 CONCEPTS): BRIDGE, ROADWAY, SIGNAGE, LANDSCAPE Prior to developing the conceptual renderings, our team will meet with the City and Caltrans (including Caltrans Landscape Architectural Functional Unit) to brainstorm ideas for possible themes and aesthetic treatments for the bridge and retaining structures and railings, roadway enhancements including bicycle, pedestrian, and median hardscape/landscape treatments, plant palettes and locations, and lighting. This meeting will help set the vision for the corridor. After meeting with the City and Caltrans, the team will create three (3) concept alternatives based on the City and Caltrans direction with input from the design team. One of the concepts will be Alternative 3A as discussed in the Project Understanding and Approach. The development of the renderings will include:
> Creating a digital 3D model of surrounding site for rendering purposes. > Creating conceptual designs of railings, abutment, piers, lighting, superstructure type, texture, and color. > Producing renderings showcasing each alternative for team discussion during progress meetings. Renderings will be provided in JPEG, PNG, or PDF format at a resolution equal to 24”x36” at 300 DPI. All renderings and 3D modeling will be developed in Revit.

These renderings will be presented to the public for review and comment during the Public Meeting identified in Tasks 1.6 and 9.0. The team will utilize diagrams, renderings, animations, and drawings to illustrate the concepts to the public and solicit comments and feedback for a preferred option or direction.

TASK 7.2 - MEETING - CITY AND CALTRANS
The team will meet with representatives from the City and Caltrans after the draft renderings have been developed to gather input and consensus. We assumed two virtual meetings will be required to achieve consensus.

TASK 7.3 - DRAFT AESTHETIC REPORT
The aesthetic theme for the corridor will be documented in an Aesthetic Report. The report will document the process the team followed, and the decisions made and agreed upon by the team, the City and Caltrans.

Task 8.0 – Utility Coordination - Phase I
Consor will provide utility coordination by working with the utility agencies identified in the survey mapping completed as part of Task 4 of the project. Consor will coordinate potential utility relocations (underground, wet and dry utilities) needed to construct the project.

Consor will follow Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual (LAPM) Chapter 14 guidelines for the utility coordination for the project. During this task, we will focus on positively locating the utilities and begin coordinating with the City staff for the wet utilities and the dry utilities for undergrounding. The utility coordination will continue in Phase II of the project.

TASK 8.1 - “A” LETTERS
Consor will prepare Utility Verification Letters (“A” Letters) for each of the identified utilities. The “A” Letters will notify the utility company of the project and project limits, schedule and expectations. A color-coded plan showing existing and proposed right-of-way lines and existing and proposed utility facilities with the project improvements shown will be attached to the “A” letters. We will also include a conflict map identifying impacted utilities. The “A” Letter will request asbuilt or Atlas maps for the impacted utilities and determination of prior rights. “A” Letters can be provided to the City in MS Word format for placement on City Letterhead and signed by the City Project Manager and mailed, or Consor can place the letters on our letterhead and sign them. If the City chooses to sign the letters the contact information in the letter will be Consor’s Utility Task Lead.

TASK 8.2 - MEETINGS WITH AFFECTED UTILITIES (2 MEETINGS PER UTILITY, INCL CITY WET UTILITIES. 1 IN PERSON, 1 VIRTUAL)
Following the preparation and the utilities receipt of the “A” letters, Consor’s Utility Task Lead will attend an in person informational meeting out on site with all of the affected utilities. This meeting will be an opportunity to walk through the project impacts, timeline, goals, and verify utility alignments. The Utility Task Lead will schedule individual meetings with each affected utility to answer specific questions and discuss relocation options.

Consor’s wet utility task lead will meet in person once and once virtually with City staff to discuss the wet utility relocations specifically.

TASK 8.3 - POTHOLE EXHIBITS (2)
Consor will prepare exhibits depicting locations of potholing to be conducted by the City’s contractor. The pothole exhibits will be prepared once as-built and atlas plans have been received from those utilities that are underground. The maps will be the same color coded maps used for the “A” Letters and will show locations of the requested pot holing. We will submit a draft of the exhibits to the City for review and comment. We will address the City’s comments and submit a final exhibit.

Our scope assumes that the City will be coordinating potholing, traffic control, and all permits necessary for the potholing activities. We recommend that the locations and depths of the utilities determined during the potholing be surveyed. Our team can provide that service if desired.

TASK 8.4 - UTILITY COORDINATION - DRY UTILITIES TO UNDERGROUND The City desires to underground the overhead utilities along Prado Road, Elks Lane, and along the west side of US 101 in the area of the new overcrossing. Our scope assumes that the distribution electric line to the north of the project crossing US 101 will not be underground. Consor’s Utility Task Lead will be coordinating with the affected utilities to discuss options for the undergrounding. Those utilities crossing US 101 (overhead along the southside of Prado Road) can be placed in conduits in either the barrier rail or deck of the new overcrossing structure. The overhead lines along the north side of Prado Road that terminate at the northbound ramp termini can be placed in a joint trench in the new

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 19 of 50 refinements based on public input.

As an option, the team can videotape the public meeting for posting on the City’s Prado Interchange website to ensure information and ability to comment is inclusive of all audiences.

TASK 10.3 - LOCAL RESIDENCE OUTREACH - MASS MAILERS (2) Our team envisions that one mailer to all residents and businesses within the immediate area (anticipated to be a .5 mi radius from US 101/Prado interchange site, to include San Luis Ranch neighborhood and Madonna Plaza on west side of US 101, and businesses/residents at So. Higuera and Prado on east side of US 101) announcing the upcoming Public Meeting.

Our scope assumes the City will print and mail the mailer.

A second mass mailer could either be specific to businesses in the area with a business focused Fact Sheet. Alternatively, the second mass mailer could be a recap and a link to view meeting (if the City authorizes the videotaping of the meeting).

The mailer would be sent to the same audience that received the public meeting announcement. Our scope assumes the City would print and mail the mailer.

TASK 10.4 - PRESS RELEASES (3)
One press release would be prepared to get coverage for the Public Meeting to discuss the Value Analysis findings. A second press release would be prepared as a recap of the public meeting, and a third would be prepared to announce a planned event or as story generation, as appropriate.

TASK 10.5 - MEDIA MANAGEMENT
Our team recommends providing an outreach to the media at the start of the project to inform them of the project timeline, scope and plans to ensure channels of communication remain open.

It is recommended that the media be updated regularly; Verdin is also available to develop additional press releases and media relations for unplanned eventualities where media and public information is needed. Depending on the amount and level of effort additional scope may be required.

TASK 10.6 - CITY OF SLO WEBPAGE MONTHLY UPDATES
The team will provide monthly updates to the City’s Prado Road Interchange Project webpage. The existing webpage is housed on the City’s website with general information on the project. We will start by updating the current illustration, Fact Sheet, and FAQ’s, and noting the updated project timeline and public meeting dates and information. It is assumed that 12 updates will be completed during Phase I.

TASK 10.7 - PROJECT BOARDS FOR OUTREACH MEETINGS (3 EVENTS, 4 BOARDS EACH) The Consor team will provide project boards showing renderings of the proposed project improvements, including aesthetic treatments, landscaping (planting palettes), and hardscape options. The boards can also include project timelines, extents of flooding, location of stormwater quality/treatment areas, and utility relocations.

The map will identify visually the areas and include a table indicating property owner, APN, area of temporary and area of permanent. The map will include the needs for utility relocations including undergrounding We will prepare a draft, draft final, and final needs map for City and Caltrans review and comment.

Task 17.1.1 - Legal Descriptions and Exhibit Maps
Based on the Final ROW needs map, Wallace Group will provide legal descriptions and exhibit maps for needed the project’s right of way and easement acquisitions. For budgeting purposes, we have assumed that up to 15 legal descriptions and exhibit maps will be required. This includes one (1) draft submittal, responding to one (1) set of unified comments, and delivering one signed and sealed submittal.

TASK 17.2 - SURVEY STAKING OF POTENTIAL ROW TAKES
Our team will provide field staking for the proposed right of way takes. We will coordinate with the City prior to the field

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 28 of 50 staking to determine which proposed takes require staking and how the staking should appear, if any particulars are required. As this effort will take place often on private property, we will closely coordinate and schedule these activities while communication with the City. Upon completion of the field work we will provide the City with a point plot showing the locations of the stakes. For budgeting purposes, we have included three field survey days and associated office support to complete this task. We have also assumed that this task will not require staking on existing property lines and will not therefore require a possible record of survey map and setting monuments.

TASK 17.3 - PROPERTY OWNER INTRODUCTION MEETINGS (2 PER OWNER) Hamner, Jewell & Associates (HJA) will support the Consor team with the right-of-way acquisition process. HJA will first contact property owners with an introductory letters and proactive outreach by telephone to schedule introductory meetings in person with each property owner. The first meeting will be held early in the design process and a right of way agent will present the plans and discuss the project with the owners and gather any questions or concerns which can be communicated back to the design team. The second set of meetings with each property owner will be preceded by a Notice of Decision to Appraise letter. These meetings will include the property owner, the appraiser and a right of way agent which will give the owner an opportunity to present background information about their property to the appraiser.

TASK 17.4 - APPRAISALS
Due to the general value of commercial land in the area and the proposed impacts, we believe we will need to obtain appraisals and appraisal reviews for each property requiring purchase of right-of-way. If any of the required areas fall under the expected value of $10,000 once we receive final project plans and area calculations, then we can certainly conduct a waiver valuation to value those non-complex acquisitions to save on project time and budget. Appraisal preparation process then includes the following steps:
> Appraiser will review title information pertaining to respective ownerships and will review project plans and other pertinent information relative to the parcel.
> Appraiser will review the proposed acquisition deed to evaluate the rights being acquired, including permanent and temporary easement rights.
> Appraiser will inspect each property personally with the owner and right of way agent and document the inspection with photographs for use in the report.
> Appraiser will inventory all improvements affected by the proposed acquisition, including notes on their manner of disposition (i.e., pay-for and remove vs. restoration by project contractor). > Appraiser will analyze any severance damages, determine whether curable or incurable, and gather data to support the conclusion. This process may involve obtaining bids from specialists for cost to cure work or using industry standard references for establishing replacement and restoration costs. > Appraiser will perform market research to support the selected appraisal methodologies and will document and confirm comparable sales information.
> Appraiser will prepare a narrative appraisal report that conforms to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). The appraisal study and report are intended to serve as an acquisition appraisal and will be prepared in a summary format consistent with the specifications for narrative appraisal reports. > Upon completion of the appraisal report, HJA coordinates a formal appraisal review by an independent appraiser in accordance with federal regulations. > HJA reviews and analyzes the completed appraisal reports carefully for accuracy and logic; forward the appraisals to the client for review after this internal quality control and assessment process is completed.

TASK 17.5 - DRAFT OFFER PACKAGES
Once the appraisal process is complete, appraisals are reviewed and pre-approved by the City, and review appraisals done per federal guidelines, we would then prepare offer packages for each owner that will include an offer letter,

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 29 of 50 Appraisal Summary Statement, proposed Right of Way Agreement, and Deed. These documents would be presented to the City for your review and pre-approval prior to presenting offers to property owners.

TASK 17.6 - ATTEND TWO (2) CITY COUNCIL CLOSED SESSION MEETINGS (OFFERS) Consor’s project manager and HJA project management will attend two (2) City Council closed session meetings to assist the City in presenting the offer packages for preapproval by City Council. We will be prepared to answer any questions about the appraisal, the right of way acquisition process and how we plan to address owner or Council concerns about the project’s right-of- way impacts, if necessary.

TASK 17.7 - PROPERTY OWNER OFFER MEETINGS (2 PER OWNER) Once offers are City approved and the City sets just compensation by signing the appraisal summary statements, HJA Right of Way Agents will present purchase offers in person to each property owners. If owners do not sign at offer presentation, we will set a follow up meeting in person to follow up on the owner’s consideration of the offer. We will continue to coordinate with each owner in person, by phone, email or whatever method each owner prefers until we are able to reach amicable agreements and collect owner signatures on the Agreement, deed and any additional documentation that may be needed based on the specifics of the property. We will coordinate and work closely with the City and project team to ensure that all agreements and negotiations are preapproved before accommodating changes to the initial offers. For purchase efforts that do not culminate in mutually acceptable amicable agreements, we can amend our scope and fee to coordinate with the City Attorney’s office with any required Necessity Hearing scheduling.

TASK 17.8 - ATTEND TWO (2) CITY COUNCIL CLOSED SESSION MEETINGS (AUTHORIZE PAYMENT) Consor’s project manager and HJA project management will attend two (2) City Council closed session meetings to assist staff in presenting final settlements for approval by City Council. We will be prepared to answer any questions about negotiations and support any settlements with data and reason.

TASK 17.9 - ROW AGREEMENTS AND CREATE ESCROW ACCOUNTS
The Consor team will work with First American Title Company in San Luis Obispo on processing all escrows. For those owners who reach final agreements, we would process all documents for necessary approvals and coordinate escrows, title insurance, and closings. It is always our goal to reach cooperative agreements in lieu of eminent domain litigation on the City’s behalf. We have a great track record of successfully reaching agreements on the agency’s behalf, minimizing or eliminating the need for eminent domain action.

The report will be based on the Phase I report and will be updated with the development of the PS&E. HDR will perform detailed calculations to prepare the design and detail usage of the treatment BMPs.

TASK 18.10 - DRAFT DRAINAGE REPORT
The team will review and research available data on the existing and proposed drainage facilities and will prepare design calculations to assess the capacity of the proposed drainage systems. A Drainage Report will be prepared to evaluate the hydrologic and hydraulic conditions of the proposed drainage systems to accommodate the proposed Project improvements. The report will document the hydrologic and hydraulic design criteria as well as the procedures used for the drainage design.

The results and design recommendations will be summarized in the Drainage Report, which is expected to include the following:
> Evaluation of the existing conditions, including:
• Research into downstream controlling conditions for locations where the Project connects directly to off- site storm drains,
• Evaluation of inlet interception capacities for systems impacted by the Project, and • Hydraulic analyses of proposed hydraulic conditions for systems impacted by the Project; > Identification of drainage deficiencies;
> Evaluation of spread widths at proposed inlets;
> Improvements to address drainage deficiencies; and
> Drainage mapping.

TASK 18.11 - DRAFT FINAL FOUNDATION AND GEOTECHNICAL REPORT The geotechnical services for Phase II will include a Geotechnical Design Report (GDR), Foundation Report (FR) for both the Earth Retaining Structures and the US 101 OC/Ramp structures. This is consistent with Caltrans project requirements.

Task 18.11.1 - Draft Geotechnical Design Report (GDR)
This work will include planning, field exploration, laboratory testing, and performing geotechnical analyses for preparation of the GDR. Field exploration will also be performed under this task for the proposed earth retaining structures and overcrossing structure and ramps. The scope of the field exploration and testing programs assumes that the work will be performed under a single mobilization and effort. > Submit a Field Exploration Plan showing the locations and depth of borings and describing the field work to be performed. Prepare and submit a Caltrans Encroachment Permit (Dual Permit) application for work within the Caltrans right-of-way that will address field work. An encroachment permit will also be submitted for work within the City of San Luis Obispo right-of-way. Prepare a health and safety plan (HASP) for the field work, visit the site to mark the locations of borings and contact Underground Services Alert (USA) to mark utilities prior to beginning the field exploration program. Yeh will then coordinate field exploration with the drilling and traffic control subcontractors, update the encroachment permit from Caltrans or the City if needed, obtain well permits for applicable borings from San Luis Obispo County.
> Perform a field exploration program for the proposed improvements. Traffic control will be provided by a

Detailed Scope
US 101/Prado Road Interchange • City of San Luis Obispo • October 2024 • 34 of 50 subcontractor (Avila Traffic Safety of Atascadero, California) > Unusual and special conditions; will follow the Caltrans and City approved traffic control plan(s). It is anticipated that lane closures on Prado Road and Elks Lane will be needed and shoulder closures along US 101 will be performed. Drilling will be subcontracted to Britton Exploration of Los Gatos, California. Britton will provide track-mounted drill rigs equipped with hollow-stem augers, mud rotary and rock coring equipment to perform the drilling depending on the location of the borings. Borings will be sampled with Standard Penetration Test, California Modified, and Shelby Tube samplers. Rock coring using HQ-size core barrels will be used once bedrock is encountered. Yeh will log the borings and recover soil and rock samples for laboratory testing. The field exploration is expected to occur over a period of 30 working days. The table below summarizes proposed borings for the project. Yeh will coordinate with Rincon for sampling of soil for ADL testing where practicable.
> The final depths and numbers of borings may be varied depending on the field conditions encountered and the proposed design layout for Alternative 3A. Borings will be backfilled with cement bentonite grout and capped with rapid setting concrete colored black or as approved by the Caltrans Permit Engineer if they are within the pavement. Borings within the City right-of-way will be backfilled with either native cuttings or cement bentonite grout per County well permit standards. Excess cuttings will be drummed and temporarily stored near the site and then hauled off for disposal.
> Perform laboratory tests for soil classification, grain size, strength, compaction, corrosivity, consolidation, and R-values on selected samples recovered from the borings.
> Yeh will review the data obtained from the field exploration and laboratory testing, perform preliminary geotechnical analyses, and prepare a draft Geotechnical Design Report (GDR) for the design of the embankments, roadway improvements, pavements, and storm water infiltration. The report will include the project understanding, work performed, and a description of the subsurface conditions encountered, boring logs, laboratory test results, and graphics showing the site and boring locations. The report will provide conclusions and recommendations regarding:
• Project description;
• Geotechnical exploration and laboratory testing;
• Geotechnical conditions including:
» Site geology;
» Surface conditions;
» Subsurface conditions encountered;
» Groundwater; and
» Seismic hazards evaluation including site seismic and ground motion parameters developed from ARS-online, seismic parameters for slope stability analyses, as well as potential for fault rupture, liquefaction, and liquefaction induced lateral spreading.
• Geotechnical analyses and design recommendations for:
» Soil and rock engineering properties;
» Geotechnical model and analyses performed;
» Suitability of the native soil materials encountered for reuse on-site;
