The City of Muskegon is seeking proposals from interested consulting engineers to provide survey and design project services related to rehabilitation of W. Western Avenue from its west end to Shoreline Drive. As the uses in the area transition from industrial to mixed-use, the city has goals for this project of reducing the pavement width to encourage safer speeds, reduce maintenance costs, providing additional greenspace and improved pedestrian facilities, and retaining some on-street parking. This project will be funded entirely by City funds on hand. Work by the selected engineer will include the following: o Survey of the entirety of the project corridor to at least 10 feet beyond the right-of-way boundary to establish site features, topography and boundaries. o Geotechnical or other investigations as needed to support design. o Development and refinement of conceptual layouts for the corridor. This will involve engagement with the surrounding developers/property owners, as well as at least one public meeting to receive and incorporate feedback from the general public. Note that the Shaw PUD Plan included in the attachments has improvements shown that should inform the concepts and design for W, Western developed under this contract. o Ensuring existing utilities are adequate for and in a condition to support the use changes and new amenities. o Utility coordination as needed, including specific coordination with Consumers Energy on the relocation/decommissioning of the overhead power lines on the south side of W. Western from Franklin to Division. Consumers Energy has budgeted for and is preparing to relocate/decommission the lines. o Development of complete plans and specifications for the rehabilitation of the corridor. o Obtaining any necessary permits and easements for the project. o Assistance in solicitation of bids for the construction of the project. o Turn over CAD files to the City in preparation for a City-administered construction phase.
