The contract may be supplemented for subsequent phases including right-of-way acquisition and construction support. The 2022 Ridgefield City Safety Plan (LRSP; DKS for Regional Transportation Council, 2022) evaluated collision data at the S. 11th Street and S Timm Road intersection and identified Safety Needs. The intersection is located in an industrial area of Ridgefield, S 11th Street and S Timm Road has unsignalized traffic control. S 11th Street is a narrow road with trucks frequently entering the intersection. The crosswalk at this intersection is long and lacks illumination. The 2022 LRSP scoped the S 11th Street Eastbound Approach at S Timm Rd Intersection Safety Project to address the identified needs at this intersection. The consultant will evaluate the proposed countermeasures and determine if they are sufficient or suggest alternatives to address the safety needs at the intersection. The design phase (Tasks 1-3) will consist of the following: -Review the collision data, the 2022 LRSP and the 2024 update and confirm or modify the countermeasures to be designed and implemented. -Prepare a conceptual design and area of potential effect (APE). -Write the NEPA including working through the approval process -Prepare a preliminary and final design for review. -Finalize design and bid documents. The anticipated work schedule is as follows: -Task 1 (Project management and coordination) is to be initiated immediately upon Notice to Proceed (NTP) and will last for the duration of the project. -Task 2 (design and bid support) is to be completed within 4 months of NTP. The design task will include community outreach that will be led by City staff. -Task 3 (environmental documentation and permitting) is to be completed within 6 months of NTP. This contract may be supplemented for the following future tasks: -Task 4 (right-of-way acquisition) is to be initiated per schedule determined during Task 2 and Task 3 work but must be initiated no later than 5 months after NTP. -Task 5 (construction management) is to be initiated within one month of approval of design and environmental documents (if necessary) and securing right-of-way. Duration of task to be determined. Design tasks are expected to be completed by the end of 2024. Project construction is expected to be completed by May 1, 2025.
