Director of Public Works/City Engineer SUBJECT: ACCEPTANCE OF THE MARINA DRIVE BRIDGE REHABILITATION PROJECT NO. 49676 SUMMARY OF REOUESTS: The proposed City Council action will adopt Resolution No. _ and formally accept the completion of the Marina Drive Bridge Rehabilitation Project No. 49676. BACKGROUND: Marina Drive Bridge, which crosses over the San Gabriel River and connects into the City of Long Beach, has been reconstructed with a new cast-in-place/prestressed concrete box girder bridge. In addition, street and landscaping improvements have been constructed on Marina Drive from First Street to the Bridge. The bridge was determined to be subject to collapse if subjected to a major earthquake, and therefore was designated for replacement under the State of California Seismic Safety Retrofit Program and the Federal Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRR). The replaced bridge was originally constructed in 1938 with a 13 span timber deck structure with concrete pile bents. Construction was completed in two phases. The first phase began on the north half of the roadway and bridge, keeping the south half open to pedestrian/bicycle and vehicle traffic. Upon completion of the north half of the new bridge, the contractor moved to the south half and opened traffic to the north half of the bridge. The project took 30 months to complete. The City of Long Beach and the Coastal Commission requested to keep the bridge open to traffic during construction. The new bridge is a structurally sound roadway and that includes a new fishing pier, sidewalks, bicycle lanes, street lighting and a new median. The new bike lanes will connect to the proposed regional bicycle facility on Marina Drive. The Marina Drive Bridge rehabilitation project was approved by the Federal Highway Administration (FHW A), California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), the CoUnty of Los Angeles Department of Public Works Flood Control District, and the City of Long Beach. In Agenda Item r addition, the City secured permits from the California Coastal Commission and the Army Corp of Engineers. Historv: City Council originally approved the plans and specifications for the project on January 28, 2002. Staff received the authorization to proceed for the project from CaltraDS in May of 2002, On July 10, 2002, bids were received exceeding the original budget for the project. Staff, requested the additional funds from Caltrans. On August 26, 2002, the City Council approved the rejection of all bids and authorized Staff to re-bid the project after the City obtained approval from Caltrans. On March 4, 2003, the City obtained authorization to proceed from Caltrans to re-bid the project. However, since the State was in the midst of their funding crisis, no additional State Seismic funds were available to local agency projects, thereby raising the local match from 11.47% to 20% (State funded $699,950, Seal Beach and Long Beach split the remaining (6%) of the total project cost. Previous State authorizations for matching money would be kept intact to a maximum of $699,950. However, additional matching funds were not available. On March 5, 2003, Staff re-bid the project and also requested an additional alternate bid for a full bridge closure in order to compare costs. In accordance with the plans and specifications and changes directed in the field, the low bidder Griffith Company has completed construction of the project for $7,959,718.25. FISCAL IMPACT: The budget for the project was estimated to be $10,570,000 including design, agency permitting, construction, and project and construction management. A total of $10,257,810.00 was spent for the project. The Federal Highway Bridge Replacement Program has funded 80% of the cost, the State seismic money obligated to the project will fund $699,950, and the City of Seal Beach and the City of Long Beach will each have to fund $707,025. For the City of Seal Beach, $220,000 was obligated from State Gas Tax, $100,000 from Measure M - TOM grant, $25,000 from the sewer capital fund and $362,025 from the water capital fund for the water interconnection with Long Beach.
