Explanation
Background: This is consent legislation with the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) for a bridge widening and deck replacement project on the two I-270 mainline structures over Scioto Big Run. Work will consist of removing the existing slab and replacing it with a new widened, reinforced concrete slab on widened substructures. Sidewalks will not be included with the project since this is an interstate bridge project and the bridge carries the roadway over a small stream. (FRA-270-3.92 PID 76191)
Since a portion of this project lies within the City of Columbus, this consent ordinance is necessary. The Ohio Department of Transportation will be responsible for preliminary engineering, right-of-way and construction funding. Construction is estimated to begin in the Summer of 2009 and conclude in the Fall of 2010. The estimated construction cost for these structures is $1,000,000.00. This legislation also authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into the necessary agreements to complete this project.
Fiscal Impact: The estimated total cost of this project is $1,000,000.00, which will be funded by the Ohio Department of Transportation. There is no cost to the City of Columbus at this time.
