Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute a Contract for Engineering Services with Bury, Inc. for the 2015-2017 On-Call Traffic Operations Engineering Services.
Body
This Work Authorization contract for traffic operations engineering services will allow the Transportation Department staff to quickly assign work to Bury, Inc. for small to moderate traffic studies and design projects. This Work Authorization contract is for a two-year period and has a not to exceed total of $100,000.00. Examples of tasks that might be expected under the individual work authorizations include: coordinated signal timing plan development, signal improvement design, traffic data collection and analysis, and signing and marking plans development. There are many instances in which the Transportation Department is asked to provide specific traffic data and/or implement "fixes" relative to economic development, safety concerns, and questions raised by community members. Many times we cannot respond quickly enough, due to staffing constraints. Having this contract in place with Bury, Inc. will allow us to react to those issues and request more effectively.
Cost: $100,000.00
Source of Funds: Type B Corporation
Recommended Action
Staff recommends approval.
