REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR
AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROBERT A. BRADY
CITY MANAGER
DATE: FEBRUARY 22, 2011
SUBJECT: AWARD OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICE CONTRACT FOR THE
DESIGN OF THE TEMESCAL CANYON BRIDGE
BACKGROUND
The Federal Highway Administration, FHWA, has a bridge rating program called the
Highway Bridge Replacement & Rehabilitation (HBRR) Program where bridges are
given a Sufficiency Rating (SR) based on various factors such as age. When a bridge
receives a rating of 80 or below, it is identified as needing repair or replacement. The
Temescal Canyon Bridge, built in 1924, has been rated in the HBRR process and it
received a rating of 68.5. To complete the eligibility requirements for Federal Aid
Funding the HBRR Program requires technical justification of the bridge's Sufficiency
Rating. Staff is proposing to retain AEI CASC to perform preliminary design and
technical justification on the Temescal Canyon Bridge as the initial step for bridge
replacement.
DISCUSSION
City staff advertised a request for proposal for preliminary design and project evaluation
for the Temescal Canyon Bridge. The City received 8 proposals and a committee of
staff members scored the proposals and further evaluated the top four design firms for
this project.
The four firms chosen to be interviewed were:
AEI CASC Consulting
Biggs Cardosa Associates, Inc.
TYLIN International
RBF Consulting

On November 17, 2010 these four firms provided a 30 minute presentation with a
question and answer period after the presentation. The review committee selected AEI
CASC Consulting as the most qualified Engineering firm to provide the requested
services.
Staff has phased this bridge replacement project to allow for the opportunity to qualify
for additional Federal funding. It is proposed that AEI CASC perform the work identified
in Phase I below. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 6 months for completion
of the work.
Phase I is the conceptual planning study to define the project scope
(footprint), cost and schedule.
Phase II is the preliminary engineering and environmental documents
phase of the project which includes mapping and right of way,
geotechnical investigation and foundation report, hydraulics and drainage
study, roadway geometric drawing and environmental documents. These
studies will be performed using the preliminary bridge design identified in
Phase I.
Phase III, will include the final plans, specification and cost estimate phase
of the project. These items identify specific roadway design, drainage and
channel design, flood map revisions, wet utility relocation design, bridge
design and right of way requirements.
Phase IV is the construction support phase which includes bidding
assistance, construction assistance, post construction as-built plans and
final Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) documents.
After completion of Phase I the City will submit a funding document to the Caltrans
District-8 Local Assistance Engineer (DLAE). Caltrans, through the Local Highway
Bridge Program (HBP), will review and forward the project to RCTC to be listed on the
Regional Transportation Program/Federal Transportation Improvement Program
(RTIP/FTIP). It is anticipated that Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) will approve
the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) in January 2012 and staff
expects to receive results of the FHWA evaluation in February 2012.
FISCAL IMPACT
Of the estimated total cost of $7,482,942 for the proposed levee and 200 foot bridge
(City matching portion of $788,000 will be paid from the Zone TUMF account), $84,495
is allocated to fund the Phase 1, Conceptual Planning Study Phase. These funds will be
paid from Zone TUMF.

UNDERSTANDING AND EXPERIENCE OF CALTRANS LOCAL ASSISTANCE
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
The City has taken aggressive steps to secure available local TUMF funds to replace the Temescal Canyon Road
Bridge. Some budget for environmental clearance, final design and right of way acquisition has been allocated.
We understand that the selected consultant shall work with the City to explore additional funding opportunity to
secure Federal Highway Bridge Program (HBP) funds administrated by Caltrans Local Assistance when it is
determined that additional funds for the engineering and/or construction work is needed.
HBP is a safety program that provides federal aid for local agencies to replace or rehabilitate deficient bridges.
Since it is a federal program, a HBP-funded project shall meet programming guidelines and local assistance
procedures to ensure that 88.53% of the participating cost can be fully reimbursed by Caltrans and Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA). HBP includes several stand-alone reimbursable project scopes that include bridge
replacement, bridge rehabilitation, bridge painting, bridge railing replacement, scour countermeasures, low water
crossing replacement etc. The proposed Temescal Road Bridge falls under the bridge replacement category
requiring the bridge listed on the federal Eligible Bridge List with a sufficiency rating less than 5dand a status flag
of Structurally Deficient (SD) or Functionally Obsolete (PO). The existing Temescal` Road Bridge meets all
requirements except that its sufficiency rating of FR,_ 5`ceeds 50 Its replacement option requires technical
justifications such as sight distance, channel hydraulics and cost effectiveness in life cycle to demonstrate that the
option is based on good design practice. Programming the project requires the City to submit a HBP funding
__application following Local Assistance Program Guidelines Manual (LAPM) Chapter 6, Highway Bridge
Rehabilitation and Replacement Program'. The funding application shall be submitted to Caltrans District 8 Local
Assistance by August 15 so that it can be included in the FTIP that is usually scheduled for FHWA's approval at the
end of January of the following year. Local Agencies may elect to request only the construction funds although an
environmental NEPA document is still required.

The City owns and operates 10 highway bridges. Those local bridges are biennially inspected by Caltrans Structure
Maintenance and investigations in accordance with Title 23 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and the
National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS). Results of the field inspections and work recommendations are
compiled in the Caltrans' comprehensive Bridge Inspection Records Information System (BIRIS) that stores and
manages Bridge Inspection Reports, Structure Inventory and Appraisal (SI&A) sheets, as-built plans, sc r
AGENDA ITEM NO.

C O N S U LT ( N G TEMESCAL CANYON BRIDGE REPLACEMENT
evaluations, steel fracture critical inspections, etc. The Bridge Inspection Report lists load ratings, bridge conditions
(i.e. systemized field inspection notes), and work recommendations. Most importantly, it numerically lists the
detailed condition states and units of all bridge elements per Caltrans Element Level Inspection Manual. Caltrans
Local Assistance and its Office of Bridge and Safety Programs (OBSP) heavily rely upon the Bridge Inspection
Reports and Structure Inventory and Appraisal sheets to select and program the bridge rehabilitation candidates.
Bridge maintenance activities generally consist of two categories of work including "Routine" maintenance and
"Preventive" maintenance. Routine maintenance generally includes minor work to preserve the bridge
components in their current or intended condition such as graffiti removal while Preventive maintenance extends
the service life of the bridge. In other words, Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program (BPMP) is "taking care of
bridge components before they have the chance to break" and "spending a relatively small amount of money
today to save large amounts of money tomorrow." Maintaining an existing bridge in a structurally sound and
serviceable condition essentially keeps the bridge in a "safe" condition. Its.importance can be seen from an article
published by FHWA that after a metal plate of a concrete expansion dam (joint) on a highway bridge broke loose
more than two dozen cars got flat tires or sustained damage to their undercarriage, and one car crashed into the
guard rail. Expansion joint seal and assembly replacement is part of preventive maintenance work. The example
incident could have been prevented if the local agency had had the fund to make the proper repairs before the
situation became serious.
Nevertheless, the HBP does not fund bridge preventative maintenance activities such as sealing the bridge deck to
mitigate deck cracking, minor spot painting of structural steel elements, and repairing damaged bridge barrier
systems. In January of 2002, FHWA announced that HBP funds may be obligated for bridge preventive
maintenance activities. The program was further extended to all bridges on and off federal-aid system (urban and
rural local streets and roads and rural minor collectors) in 2005 .by the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient
J Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU). Caltrans Local Assistance initiated the State's new
Bridge Preventive Maintenance Program (BPMP) and established its programming guidelines in 2006. The BPMP
interim guidelines will be eventually merged with the HBP guidelines in the Local Assistance Program Guidelines
l (LAPG) manual. BPMP significantly increases HBP's funding flexibility as HBP does not fund preventive
J maintenance work in the past unless the work is triggered by major reconstruction such as bridge widening.
Candidates for BPMP-funded maintenance work do not need to be on the federal Eligible Bridge List.
Due to limited programming capacity, Caltrans currently only funds the effort for local agencies to develop their
Bridge Preventive Maintenance Plans to identify candidate projects including their scopes and costs, and setting
the project prioritization. Based on our team member - CNS' work experience for the City of Los Angeles Bridge
Program and extensive Local Assistance experience, we understand that the request for authorization package
shall include Exhibit 3-A Cover Letter on the County Letterhead, Exhibit 3-F Finance Letter, Exhibit 4-A Local
Program Agreement Checklist, a spreadsheet with a format per programming guidelines to show the requested PE
cost. One key element of a bridge preventive maintenance plan is setting its project prioritization as the future
funds for Preliminary Engineering (PE), Right of Way and Construction activities may be limited. We expect that
most of the preventive maintenance work will include expansion joint seal and assembly replacement,
methacrylate deck treatment, polyester concrete overlay, repair of existing scour countermeasures, and repairs of
structural elements.
Technical Qualifications: Our team member -CNS, is proud to offer a unique staff qualification as our lead bridge
engineer, Mr. James Lu, used to work for Caltrans District 7 Local Assistance as a HBP coordinator for several years.
In addition to broad local assistance knowledge learned from Caltrans' in-house comprehensive trainings on local
program, Mr. Lu has worked with several local agencies including City of Los Angeles, City of Highlands, City of
Cathedral City, City of Colton and City of Palm Springs programming many bridge projects. Mr. Lu is very familiar
with National Bridge Inventory Coding Guide and is well known to Calrans Local Assistance and County of Riverside
Transportation Department as he has helped several cities in the Inland Empire program several major river
crossings under the HBP. CNS was recently selected by the County of Riverside Transportation. Department as a
prime consultant for a County Wide Bridge Program contract to identify eligible work under HBP and BPMP,
prepare funding applications and securing the funds, and to perform engineering and environmental services to /
implement the work recommendations when the funds are authorized by Caltrans. AGENDA ITEM BIER, 5

Cathedral Canyon Low-Water Crossing Replacement Project (New Bridge) at
Whitewater River
AEI-CASC is currently providing a floodplain study utilizing the HEC-RAS computer
model for the Whitewater River at Cathedral Canyon Road Bridge Crossing. The.
proposed project will involve replacing the existing 4-lane low water crossing with a
new 44ane bridge. Cross section of the new bridge includes two S-foot sidewalks and
a curb-to-curb roadway width of 68 feet to accommodate four standard 12-foot
traveled lanes, two Class ILS-foot bike lanes, and a 10-foot median. The bridge will be g~
contained within the existing right-of-way width of 88 feet. The majority portion of
the project is in the Cathedral City's limits, and the southwest corner of the project
site is located on the border shared with the City of Palm Springs. The floodplain
study, which encompasses a total reach of approximately 20,000'feet, will be
O performed based upon the 100-year and SPF flood events. A pre-project (existing)
and post-project (proposed) floodplain study, will be prepared in order to determine
any adverse impact of the proposed' bridge and roadway improvements to the
existing golf' course immediately upstream of the crossing. Additionally, a channel
degradation and scour analysis will be performed to evaluate the impacts of the
.proposed bridge crossing to the downstream reach of the Whitewater River. The
preliminary floodplain study was submitted to the City and Caltrans. District 8 in
conjunction with the Local Highway Bridge Program (HBP),Conceptual Planning Study
-Scoping Document in late 2008.

Apache Trail Roundabout at 1-10 Interchange
Intersecting streets need adequate clearance from adjacent freeway On and off
ramps to allow for sufficient traffic flow operations. Apache Trail Interchange was
closely bounded by UPRR Tracks to the south and Seminole Drive to the north. As a
major access-way to the Desert Outlet Malls and other commerce, Apache Trail's
stop sign controlled intersections resulted in poor traffic flow during heavy
operations. To handle the increased traffic generated by the Morongo Casino Resort
and Spa, increasing circulation within the constrained limits required an economical
solution which protects the existing freeway over crossing structure and existing
commerce. After conducting,a thorough study, the solution was the construction of
two Traffic Roundabouts on Apache Trail. One Roundabout incorporates the free
flow turning movement and controls for Apache Trail at Seminole Drive and the west.
bound freeway ramps and the other roundabout incorporates the movements for
Apache Trail and the east bound freeway ramps and Main Street between the outh
side of the freeway and the UPRR tracks. AEI-CASC provided the preliminary
engineering including a "Report of Conceptual Approval" or RCA and PS & E for this
unique configuration. The RCA is similar to Caltrans Project Study Report.

Day Street Reconstruction and Storm Drain Line G-G Project
In its pre-project condition, Day Street was one lane in each direction, had very poor
pavement, unsafe vertical curves, and was impacted by cross flow drainage.
Improvement of this roadway is critically important for the economic development
of the surrounding neighborhood. AEI-CASC was contracted by the City of Moreno
Valley to prepare a Project Report and PS&E.. The Day Street Project Report
investigated several concepts including, ultimate and interim roadway improvements
at various design speeds. Each studied variation included analysis of potential
impacts to fronting properties, earthwork, right of way costs, construction costs,
environmental concerns, and utility impacts. Additionally, a project report for Storm
Drain Line G-G was prepared to develop an economical approach to providing a
future alignment for Storm Drain Line G-G. The project included a comprehensive
hydrology report and included several alternative storm drain alignments. Both
Project Reports were prepared to follow Caltrans standards. The PS&E for Day
Street included preparation of driveway reconstruction. profiles, cross=sections,
separate demolition plans, roadway plan and profiles of Day Street including several
hundred feet of Bay Avenue reconstruction and retaining wall design, signing and
striping, and waterline replacement plans for Box Springs' Mutual Water Company.
With a proposed major vertical. realignment, Day Street reconstruction also included

L~ Rock Springs Road Emergency Opening
AEI-CASC worked directly with San Bernardino County on this emergency project
involving severe flooding that occurred in January 2005 that destroyed Rock
Springs Road which crossed the Mojave River. The roadway serves as a low-flow
style crossing supported by eight CMP culverts which allow the river flow during
smaller storms to pass through the road.
With Rock Springs Road washed away, the nearest crossing is four miles
downstream from Rock Springs, causing lengthy detours for residents. With
emergency funding, the San Bernardino County Department of Public Works
selected AEI-CASC to prepare PS&E within four weeks. AEI-CASC prepared the
Plans, Specifications, and Construction Cost Estimate for over 800 feet of new
reinforced concrete roadway with concrete slope protection and three celled
14'W by S'H box culverts crossing over the Mojave River within' the demanding
timeframe and within the County's estimated construction budget.
The Rock Springs Road improvements over the Mojave River were designed to
allow river flow to pass through the culverts during small storms and to flow over
the armored road during heavy storms. This project received an Honorable
Mention Award by the local branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers .
for Outstanding Civil Engineering Project of the Year 2005/2006.

adverse impact to the hydraulic capacities and scour condition of the existing
Highland Avenue Bridge and Railroad Bridge. Both bridges are located
downstream of the new 1-210 bridge. The drainage area tributary to Lytle Creek at
the proposed 1-230 Bridge is approximately 164 square miles. The 500 and 500-
year storm flows are calculated to be approximately 109,000 ft3/sec and 64,000
ft3/sec, respectively. The report included two major study components: Bridge
Hydraulics and Scour Analysis. Current and past gravel mining activities within
Lytle Creek were considered for evaluating the long-term degradation value.
Debris production and bulking factor analyses utilizing the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers - Los Angeles District's methods were also performed for this study. AEI-
CASC submitted and processed the report through the U.S. Army Corps of

CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE
TEMESCAL CANYON BRIDGE REPLACEMENT
OVERVIEW / SITE CONDITIONS -
The existing bridge at the site is a 2-span reinforced concrete structure with 2 abutments and a center bent in
Temescal Wash. The available as-built plans indicate the existing bridge is supported on spread footings. The
approach roadway is a narrow 2-lane asphalt paved roadway with narrow unpaved shoulders. The creek area is
heavily vegetated with trees and brush. Overhead lines are present on the northbound side; numerous buried
utilities (including high pressure gas, water, and fiber optic) are• present within the roadway and on both
shoulders: The bottom of existing bridge deck was only about 2 to 3 feet above the channel bed, trees and
vegetative debris were present in the opening below the bridge; and the wash channel was,observed to be dry
during the site visit.
Temescal.Canyon Road serves as a detour route when the 1-15freeway is closed. The road has been programmed
for widening! from -2 to 4 lanes from Indian Truck Trail to Lake Street in 2008'RTIP.
ROADWAY ALIGNMENT & CONSTRUCTION STAGINGS `
The existing bridge is at the end of a tight curve that restricts safe sight distance. The curve radius of 573 feet is
generally.fit for a minimum design speed of approximately 40 mph. Temescal Canyon Road's realigned curve will.
require a minimum radius of approximately 1,300 feet to safely support a design speed of 55 mph. Thus, the
location of the new bridge will be set along a slightly different alignment that the existing bridge:
The realignment of Temescal Canyon Road will provide for a safe horizontal radius for a minimum design speed of
55 mph and it is intended to be offset from the existing bridge at a distance that will allow for the southerly half of
the new bridge to be constructed while traffic remains on the current roadway alignment and existing bridge.
Once the southerly half of the bridge is constructed, it will accept a two-way traffic while the existing bridge is
demolished and the north half of the new bridge is constructed.
NEW BRIDGE
According to the Bridge Inspection Report, the existing bridge has experienced flooding in the past, which suggests
that the channel/bridge section is undersized to convey the design flows. In order to provide full conveyance for
the 100-year storm, the bridge opening will need to be increased by widening the bridge span and/or raising the
vertical alignment of the bridge.
TEMESCAL CREEK DRAINAGE
Temescal. Creek conveys a 100-year flow of 10,450 CFS in the vicinity of the projectsite. The creek has a relatively
flat gradient as it traverses through the Temescal Canyon Road Bridge. Temescal Creek in the vicinity of the bridge
is mapped as "Zone AE" flood plain by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), dated August 28,
2008. "Zone AE" flood plain designation is defined by FEMA as "100-year base flood elevations determined". As
shown on the FEMA map, the 100-year floodplain elevations, downstream and upstream of the bridge, are 1217
and 1219, respectively. The FEMA map also shows 100-year flooding .inthe overbank areas adjacent to the bridge.
Temescal Creek discharges into the Prado Dam and is considered as one of the major tributaries to the Santa Ana
River system:

SITE GEOLOGY AND SEISMICITY
Based on the Geologic Map of the Santa Ana 30' x 60' Quadrangle, the Site is underlain by Holocene young wash
deposits (Qyw) and young alluvium (Qya). These materials are anticipated to'be underlain by increasingly older
denser alluvial soils and at depth by granitic and or metamorphic basement rock. The site is in an.active seismic
area about 1.75 miles.(2.8 km) northeast of the Elsinore Fault Zone. This isa right lateral strike slip fault assigned
maximum magnitude Mw=7.6 by Caltrans. Preliminary seismic analysis following Caltrans 2009 procedures
(assuming soil Type D with shear wave velocity 270 m/s) indicate Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) for design on
the order of 0.67 g and a Peak Spectral Acceleration (PSA) of 1.44g at a period of 0.3 seconds. Peak accelerations
are controlled by probabilistic analysis with 975 year return period,
'ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT AND CLEARANCE
The environmental assessment of the proposed project will be conducted during Phase I of the project; LSA will
provide an assessment of the environmental issues/constraints associated with the various proposed project
alternatives. The project as proposed is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) with the City of
Lake Elsinore as Lead Agency responsible for the implementation of CEQA. It is assumed that the appropriate
CEQ4 document will be an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) with supporting technical
studies.
I
J
If federal funding will used for the planning and/or construction of the bridge improvements it is assumed that the
project will more than likely be a Local Assistance Project (LAP) through Caltrans District 8 who will be responsible
for the NEPA documentation. The schedule will be longer if the project is subject to NEPA because of the
requirements of Caltrans and their review cycles (minimum of 30 working days per submittal). If the project is a
Caltrans LAP the NEPA process will start with the preparation of a Preliminary Environmental Study (PES) Checklist
to determine,and confirm, 1) the appropriate level of CEQA/NEPA documentation required, and 2) the supporting
technical studies necessary to support the environmental documentation. Based on our review of the project area,
our understanding of the project proposed, and prior experience, we anticipate that the following technical
studies will be required: biological resources, cultural resources, paleontological resources (NEPA only), water
quality (NEPA only), floodplains (NEPA only), noise (NEPA only), air quality, a potential visual impact analysis (NEPA
only), hazardous waste/materials, and traffic (NEPA only). Once the build alternatives are identified, a maximum
area of potential impact including construction access and staging areas will be defined for use in determining the
field survey area.
It is assumed that the appropriate NEPA document will be a Categorical Exclusion (CE).with supporting technical
studies if the bridge is built to accommodate 4 lanes but is stripped for 2 lanes. If the bridge is built and stripped
for 4 lanes and the roadway is not widened to 4 lanes on either side of the bridge the project will most likely be.
determined to be"growth inducing" and an Environmental Assessment (EA) maybe required. The preparation and
processing of an EA is a more lengthy process than a CE (up to one year longer).
-By far the critical enviironmental issue on the project is biological resources. regarding the project's effects on
sensitive riparian habitat, wetlands, waters of the L.S., and its relationship with the Western Riverside County
Multiple Species Habitat. Conservation Plan (MSHCP) and related environmental permitting prior to construction.
In addition, the bridge itself, because of its age, will be required to be evaluated for its significance as a historic
structure. The other environmental constraints such as noise, air quality, traffic, water quality, and hazardous
materials are routine in nature.
The. project will include vegetation clearing, grading, excavation, erecting concrete work for new footings and the
bridge structure and possibly dewatering of the creek. An Army Corps of Engineers permit (Section 404) will be
required and depending on the area and type of waters present the project could be authorized under nationwide
or individual permit. Construction design to minimize temporary and permanent impacts will save time and money

spent on the more extensive permitting process for an individual federal permit: California Department of Fish and
Game (1600 Permit) and Regional Water Quality Control Board (Section 401 Permit) permits will also be required:
for impacts to wildlife habitat, streambeds; and. water quality. These permits are in addition to the engineering/
construction phase water quality compliance process (i.e. NPDES; SWPPP, and Water Quality Control Plans).
BRIDGE DESIGN APPROACH
1. PA&ED Phase
J
1. A Bridge,Planning Study and Type Selection
Based on the preliminary hydraulic analysis and roadway layout, we will perform bridge advanced planning
studies to determine the bridge geometry and the most feasible bridge type. The planning studies will include
evaluation of the most cost-effective structure type, foundation and its constructability, calculations of '
horizontal and vertical clearances, stage construction, utility requirements within the bridge, and structural
interaction with adjacent roadway and channel facilities.
Based upon the final approved. roadway geometric layout, we will prepare preliminary bridge design and
developer bridge type selection memo. This step will be completed before extensive bridge design work for
Final PS&E is performed. We will evaluate seismic performance of the preferred structure option to satisfy
State's Seismic Design Criteria. The bridge type selection memo will include a vicinity map, a bridge general,
plan, preliminary foundation plan, a design memorandum; staging cross sections, cost estimates and other
pertinent information needed to determine the proper structure type. A draft type selection memorandum
will be prepared for City's review and approval.
I.B. Prepare Highway Bridge Program (HBP) Funding Application
We will prepare a HBP funding application in accordance with Caltrans Local Assistance Program Guidelines
for the qualified work recommendations. The HBP funding application will include a cover letter, brief
discussion of the project need, bridge deficiencies, relevant bridge and.roadway data, recommended scope of
work, and schedule; all applicable local assistance forms and checklists; a bridge general plan and planning-
,type cost estimates; SR rating calculations; if required; site photos, and justifications for betterments. We will
coordinate with Caltrans Local Assistance on behalf of the City to resolve review comments that may arise.
If. Final PS&E Phase
Engineering conclusions for the preferred alternative identified in the final bridge type selection memo will be
carried over into the final:design phase. The final bridge design will implement new Caltrans amended Load
and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) bridge design specifications, follow Caltrans Bridge Design Manuals, and
meet California Seismic Design Criteria (SDC). We will prepare and edit Caltrans standard bridge special
provisions (SSP) to be included in the bridge PS&E package: The bridge PS&E package submittals will include
unchecked 65% plans, '95% PS&E and 100% PS&E. The bridge plans will be. independently checked by a
separate licensed bridge engineer per Caltrans bridge design practice. 'A separate set of design check
calculations will be prepared. After incorporating all review comments,. we will submit camera ready plans, RE
Pending Files, final specifications and quantities for bidding advertisement. The plans will be prepared in
AutoCAD in English units per City requirements. Standard bridge details will be referred to Caltrans Standard
Plans. Nonstandard bridge aesthetic design is not included in this scope.
RIGHT OF WAY
Preliminary investigations suggest the new roadway alignment including the new bridge will affect the property to
the north and the property to the south of the existing road. It is anticipated that the right of way required for this
project includes the realigned roadway at its ultimate section which will include the new bridge.

FUNDING
There are two approaches through HBP that .can be taken to supplement the Citys shortage of funds that lead to
the completion of the project. One approach is to hold the project and wait for about one year when the funds
are made available. The other is to submit a request for Advance Construction (AC) which allows the City to use its
.own funds to continue the work and get reinibursed later: AC is not guaranteed so most of agencies do not want -
to take the risk. Further discussion regarding available funding and Local Assistance is provided elsewhere in this
proposal.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND CONTROLS
