The Consultant who is selected for this project and all Subconsultants the Prime Consultant will
be using are scheduled to attend an initial meeting on July 27, 2023, at 9:00 AM at the Region
Three/District Four Office in Peoria.
Phase I/II engineering services are required to provide work on various projects throughout
District Four. Phase I work, if required, may consist of conducting route surveys, land surveys,
hydraulic surveys, hydraulic analyses, geometric analyses, environmental studies, preparing
Bridge Condition Reports, Hydraulic Reports, Structure Geotechnical Reports, Type, Size, and
Location (TS&L) plans, Intersection Design Studies (IDS’s), and Project Reports (categorical
exclusion projects only). This work may include data collection, development of alignment
alternatives, cost estimates, traffic management analyses, traffic management plans, crash
analyses, geometric studies, traffic studies, drainage studies, structure borings, geotechnical
analysis and reporting, analysis of existing pavements including obtaining pavement cores, and
all other related work required to produce the necessary Phase I documents and reports.
Phase II work, if required, may consist of conducting route surveys, land surveys, hydraulic
analyses, structure plans, roadway plans, drainage plans, geometric plans, geotechnical
analyses, and reporting, drilling and analysis of soil borings, traffic signal plans, traffic staging
plans, temporary and permanent erosion control plans, plats and legal descriptions for Right-ofWay acquisition, and any other related work required to complete plans, specifications and
estimates as necessary.
Value Engineering (VE) services, if required, shall include VE Studies submitted in a written
report. The Consultant will assemble a multi-disciplined VE project team of approximately five (5)
to seven (7) people. The VE team is to be led by an Illinois Licensed Professional Engineer, with
experience in roadway and bridge design and in leading VE teams. The VE team should be
structured so there is appropriate expertise to evaluate the major problem areas anticipated within
the project. In addition to the technical disciplines such as design, construction, and
environmental, the VE team must possess experience in construction cost estimating and cost
benefit analysis. The Consultant will be expected to develop the VE work plan for projects
assigned by the department. The plan shall as a minimum include step, methodology, criteria,
timing, and deliverables. For value engineering studies, the department will furnish the Consultant
with available reports, roadway plans, and other information as available. The VE team leader is
to coordinate with the department on specific needs for the assigned project. Questions concerning this Bulletin should be directed to:
