This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to enter into contract with ms consultants, inc., in the amount of up to $250,000.00 for the Arterial Street Rehabilitation - Hamilton Road - I-70 to Refugee Road contract.

The Department of Public Service is initiating a procurement effort that will result in the award and execution of a detailed design contract. This project, also known as FRA-SR317-10.630 (PID Number 95570), includes the completion of the Project Development Process (PDP) for improvements to S. Hamilton Road from approximately 1500’ south of Refugee Road to approximately 550’ north of Groves Road and Refugee Road from approximately 500’ west of S. Hamilton Road to approximately 1900’ east of S. Hamilton Road. The primary purpose of the project is to upgrade the roadway, sidewalk, bikeway facilities and aesthetic elements within the City of Columbus right-of-way in the Eastland Area along Hamilton Road. The project has been awarded Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission funding for the right-of-way acquisition, utility reimbursement, and construction phases, which are programmed for state fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 2018, respectively.

The Department of Public Service, Office of Support Services, solicited Requests for Proposals for the Arterial Street Rehabilitation - I-70 to Refugee Road contract.

All proposals were deemed responsive and were fully evaluated when the Evaluation Committee met on November 15, 2013.
