Explanation

Background: This is consent legislation with the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) for phase one of a two phase construction project to create a riverfront promenade along the western side of Civic Center Drive. Roadway work will include the reduction of pavement width, resurfacing the roadway and changing Civic Center Drive from one-way to two-way traffic. Enhancements to the roadway will include construction of a balustrade, signals, lighting, trees, benches, fountain, sculptural elements and sidewalk pavers. Project limits extend on Civic Center Drive from 355 feet north of Broad Street to Town Street. (FRA-CIVIC CENTER DRIVE-PID 80823)

Construction of this project is scheduled for State Fiscal Year 2008. This legislation also authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into the necessary agreements to complete this project.

The remaining balance of the project now estimated at $7,516,000.00 will be funded by The Columbus Downtown Development Corporation. There is no funding required at this time from the City.
