1. BACKGROUND:
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into a professional engineering services contract with DLZ Ohio, Inc.

This project involves the preparation of a Preliminary Engineering document to recommend roadway and streetscape improvements to North Washington Avenue from East Broad Street to East Long Street, North 9th Street from East Broad Street to East Long Street, and East Gay Street from Cleveland Avenue to North Washington Avenue in the area known as Creative Campus.

Considerations should include but not be limited to pavement, curb, sidewalk, bikeways, ADA compliance, street trees, traffic calming, traffic control, street lighting, stormwater, and utility improvements. The project may involve final engineering and construction plan preparation of the recommended improvements.

This project complies with the recommendation of the Pedestrian Thoroughfare Plan because the project will utilize the PTP for guidance in determining improvements. Pedestrian generators and destinations impacting the proposed project include Columbus State, Columbus Museum of Art, College of Art and Design, First Congregational Church and State Auto.

The Department of Public Service, Office of Support Services solicited Requests for Proposals for the Roadway Improvements - Creative Campus contract.
