SUBJECT: AWARD CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR SEAL BEACH
BOULEVARD PAVEMENT REHABILITATION AHRP,
(SEGMENT 4) PROJECT NO. 50196 AND SEAL BEACH
BOULEVARD TRAFFIC SIGNAL INTERCONNECT
PROJECT NO. 50198
SUMMARY OF REQUEST:
The proposed City Council action will award a construction contract to the lowest responsible
bidder, All American Asphalt Inc., in the amount of $948,294 and authorize the City Manager to
execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Seal Beach Boulevard Pavement Rehabilitation AHRP (Segment 4), Project No. 50196
On June 14,2004, the City Council approved the City's Pavement Management System (PMS).
The system was also approved by the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) as part
of Measure M funding eligibility. As part of the Federal Arterial Highway Restoration Program
(AHRP), the City competed for and won federal funding through OCTA for pavement
rehabilitation on Seal Beach Boulevard. The current project is the fourth segment of the
pavement rehabilitation along Seal Beach Blvd. and rehabilitates Seal Beach Boulevard between
St. Cloud Drive and Bradbury Road. On April 24, 2006, City Council approved and authorized
staff to initiate the bidding process for the Seal Beach Boulevard Pavement Rehabilitation AHRP
(Segment 4), Project No 50196. When funds are involved with the AHRP program Caltrans
authorization is required prior to bidding. Authorization was received on August 28, 2006.
The proposed project consists of a rubberized asphalt overlay, curb ramps, and traffic striping.
Plans and specifications were completed by the City's on-call transportation consultant W.G.
Zimmerman Engineering, Inc.
Seal Beach Boulevard Traffic Signal Interconnect, Project No. 50198
As part of OCTA's Measure M Signal Improvement Program and GMA No.2, the City
competed for and secured funding through OCTA for Signal Improvements on Seal Beach
Boulevard. The proposed project is the third phase of the upgrading coordination of traffic
signals along Seal Beach Boulevard. This phase will extend between Bradbury Road and
Lampson Avenue. Traffic signal coordination is a method of timing groups of traffic signals

along an arterial to provide for the smooth movement of traffic with minimal stops. The goal of
the coordination system is to efficiently move the greatest number of vehicles through the system
with the fewest possible stops.
e
The first phase of the traffic signal upgrades and coordination along Seal Beach Boulevard has
been completed, with the installation of new traffic controllers and cabinets. The second phase
involved linking the traffic signals south of the 1-405 Interchange through new buried fiber optic
lines in a local network. It enabled centra1ized control, coordination, and networking via a state-
of-the-art computer equipment and programs. This phase of the project would be similar in
scope to the second phase improvements, except the fiber optic lines would be placed north of
the 1-405 interchange.
The two projects were merged prior to bidding for construction simplification. Also, the cost to
repave the Interconnect project is now included with the Rehabilitation project. The plans and
specifications for both projects have been completed by the City's on-call transportation
consultant W.G. Zimmerman Engineering, Inc.
Five bids were received and opened by the City Clerk on Thursday, October 5, 2006 and are
listed below:
Bidder Cost
1 All American Asphalt $919,179/ $948,294
2 Sequel Contractors, Inc. $1,049,020 I $1,133,185
e 3 RJ Noble Company $1,118,039 1$1,178,891
4 Sully Miller Contracting Co. $1,133,015/ $1,213,015
5 Excel Paving Company $1,169,535/$1,234,495
Separate bids were requested for day work and night work. The first amount in the cost column
represents the price to construct the project during day hours and the second amount represents
the price for night work.
Staff has reviewed the .submitted bid documents' and found the low bidder to be in compliance
with the contract documents. Upon the successful execution of the contract documents, the
project is scheduled to begin in November and continue through the spring of 2007. It is
recommended that City Council move forward with the project and award the contract with the
night work option as outlined in the Fiscal hnpact section.
FISCAL IMPACT:
e
City council has approved a budget of $1 ,40 1 ,000 for the design, construction, and inspection of
both projects within the City's 5-year Capital hnprovement program. Included within those
funds the Public Works Department has secured competitive grants from OCTA's AHRP
program in the amount of $301,200, from OCTA's Signal Interconnect Program (SIP) in the
amount of $197,800, and from the Growth Management Agency (GMA 2) in the amount of
$70,000. Any remaining funds upon completion of the project will be brought back for
reprogramming.
