Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of Public Service to modify a design contract with ms consultants, inc. for the Arterial Street Rehabilitation - Hamilton Road - I-70 to Refugee Road project.
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 along Hamilton Road in the Eastland Area. This is Community Planning Area 24. This project includes improvements to the south leg of the Hamilton / Refugee Road intersection tying into the existing Refugee Road curb lines and limited only to the intersection radius returns on Refugee Road. No lane additions or improvements to Refugee Road beyond the intersection are included. The signal at Refugee will be replaced with a mast arm signal. The signal at Eastland Square will be upgraded with ped heads and push buttons for the new curb ramps but the existing poles are to remain.
This planned modification provides funding to complete the detailed design of this project. This is an ongoing task to design the Hamilton Road Corridor. To bid this work out for the final part of the design would cause the project to incur a delay and extra costs. The consultant has surveyed and completed the preliminary engineering document and is familiar with all work that remains to be done on the project.
