Title/Name/Summary
Wolf Road (143rd Street to 167th Street) - Phase I Engineering
History
On July 8, 2005, the Village Board of Trustees approved awarding a contract for Phase I professional engineering services for improvements to Wolf Road from 143rd Street to 167th Street to URS Corporation of Chicago, Illinois. In 2009 the Village Board of Trustees approved a supplement for additional work required by IDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). To date the Phase I Engineering report has not been approved by IDOT or FHWA, requiring various items to be updated. These items include traffic data, crash data, topographic survey, noise analysis, environmental surveys, location and drainage studies, intersection design studies and project development report. Completion of this work is anticipated in 2015 with IDOT and FHWA Phase I Design approval in 2016.
Staff has secured additional Federal STP monies from the Southwest Conference of Mayors for the Phase I Engineering update. The cost of Phase I Engineering update is $152,141.72 of which 70% or $106,500 will be reimbursed back to the Village.
On February 16, 2015 this item was recommended for approval by the Development Services Planning and Engineering Committee.
Financial Impact
Funds are available in the FY 2015 fiscal year.
Recommended Action/Motion
I move to approve the proposal from URS Corporation of Chicago, Illinois, for professional engineering services for Wolf Road from 143rd Street to 167th Street for an amount not to exceed $152,141.72.
