Crumby, Assistant City Manager/Public Works SUBJECT: COLLEGE PARK DRIVE/STUDEBAKER OFF RAMP INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. ST 1106 - AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION SUMMARY OF REQUEST: That the City Council: • Approve Plans and Specifications for the College Park Drive/Studebaker Off Ramp Intersection Improvement Project No. ST1106. • Adopt Resolution No. 6243 awarding a contract for the College Park Drive/Studebaker Off Ramp Intersection Improvement Project No. ST1106 to All American Asphalt in the amount of$435,000. • Adopt Resolution No. 6244 awarding a professional services agreement to Willdan Engineering for $10,000 for construction support. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS: For many years, ingress and egress to the College Park West (CPVV) community has been negatively impacted by traffic using the westbound on/off ramp for SR 22. This roadway is a multi-jurisdictional freeway off-ramp operated by Caltrans and located in the City of Long Beach. The City of Seal Beach desires improvements to the intersection at the entrance and exit to College Park West. This intersection also serves a neighborhood in the City of Long Beach. The intersection is located at College Park Drive and the SR 22 westbound Studebaker Road on/off ramp in the City of Long Beach. As residents of Seal Beach and Long Beach exit from College Park Drive, which terminates at the SR 22 off-ramp, the residents must stop until it is safe to proceed. College Park Drive and the SR 22 off-ramp is a stop controlled `T" intersection. At various times of the day, including the morning, noon and evening peak hours, vehicles wait an inordinate amount of time to exit from these residential areas due to the continuous stream of vehicles coming on and off the freeway. Agenda Item J The engineering firm Willdan Engineering prepared project plans and bid specifications for this project to help channelize the traffic. The project will widen the existing off ramp, relocate street lighting, with traffic markings and signage. This project will also include full coordination with Caltrans, the City of Long Beach and the current West County Connector Project. On March 29, 2012, the City Clerk's office received five (5) bids with the following results: RANK i CONTRACTOR BID 1 All American Asphalt ; $435,000 2 Excel Paving $437,681.40 3 Beador Construction $512,300 4 ! Griffith Company --r- $514,250.15 5 I Hardy & Harper $567,000 Based upon the references, qualifications, work experience and cost, staff recommends selecting All American Asphalt as the lowest responsive bidder at $435,000. The City Attorney's office has approved a boilerplate template construction agreement to be used for this type of project. The contractor has signed the agreement and it is included in this staff report. Exhibits to that agreement, including bonds and insurance documents will be provided to the City upon award of contract. Staff has also solicited the services of the design firm, Willdan Engineering, to provide construction support to assist staff with review and approve all of construction related documents, permitting and agency coordination. Willdan provided a cost of$10,000. This amount is appropriate for the services rendered. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: A Class 1 Categorical Exemption Section 15301 Notice was filed on August 25, 2011 by the City of Long Beach. LEGAL ANALYSIS: The City Attorney has reviewed and approved as to form. FINANCIAL IMPACT: In the approved 2011/12 Budget, $900,000 has been budgeted for this project with the following proposed expenses: Page 2 Design Fees $115,900 Construction Bid Award $435,000 Construction Support $10,000 Inspection and Materials Testing $15,000 Permitting and Agency Coordination $3,000 Total $578,000 RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council: • Approve Plans and Specifications for the College Park Drive/Studebaker Off Ramp Intersection Improvement Project No. ST1106. • Adopt Resolution No. 6243 awarding a contract for the College Park Drive/Studebaker Off Ramp Intersection Improvement Project No. ST1106 to All American Asphalt in the amount of$435,000. • Adopt Resolution No. 4344 awarding a professional services agreement to Willdan Engineering for $10,000 for construction support.
