• Incorporate City's comments from preliminary design report and prepare plans at a scale of 1 "=40' on 11 "x17" sheets for multi -use path north of E Hopkins Street • Prepare plans for widening of Charles Austin at E Hopkins Street • Prepare drainage calculations sheets and prepare preliminary drainage layouts for closed system between Charles Austin and Thorpe Lane. • Prepare details for drainage improvements to existing shared use path on south side of Hopkins Street near Thorpe Lane. • If the City selects to reconstruct the sidewalk on the south side of E Hopkins Street, prepare sidewalk plans for the south sidewalk at a scale of 1 "=40' on 11 "x17" sheets. • Prepare Index, Quantity Summary tables and typical sections sheets. • Prepare traffic control plan. Develop construction sequencing and phasing for the project. • Prepare signage and pavement markings plans for the Charles Austin intersection and each pedestrian crossing. • Prepare erosion control sheets, TOOT SW3P Index, and TOOT EPIC sheet. • Prepare preliminary cross sections at 100 -foot maximum intervals. • Determine removal items for existing pavement markings, signs, signal poles and other required infrastructure. Show removal items on pertinent plan sheets. • Existing Signal Conditions sheet will show locations of existing traffic control devices, underground, and overhead utilities at each intersection. • Signal Layout sheet will show the locations of proposed signal poles, pedestrian poles, signal heads, communication equipment, electrical conduits, ground boxes, signal cabinet, new electrical service, existing utilities, right of way, and proposed roadway improvements. Locations of pedestrian poles and pedestrian access ramps will be designed in conformance with ADA requirements. The Engineer will coordinate with the City before finalizing locations of signal poles, where applicable. • Signal Elevation sheet will show placement of signal heads on a mast -arm and vertical clearance required for the mast -arm. • Conduit Chart and Electrical Wiring sheet will show the type and number of electrical wires in each conduit run. A new electrical service will be designed to support total electrical load due to the new traffic signal and safety lighting at the intersection. The electrical service will include two separate circuits for traffic signal and illumination. The Engineer will conduct a field meeting with the City and local electric service provider to determine location of new electrical service. • Phasing & Detection sheet will show the proposed phasing at each intersection. Phasing and signal -heads for left -turn movements will be designed in conformance with 2011 Texas MUTCD. Video detection details for each movement will also be shown. • Due to proximity of a future signal/PHB to the existing signals at E Hopkins St / Charles Austin Dr. and E Hopkins St / CM Allen Pkwy, the Engineer will develop appropriate traffic signal timing plans by time of day for the new signal to fit in the existing coordinated signal system. The Engineer will also develop pedestrian walk and clearance times based on the length of the crosswalks; amber and all -red clearance times based on the posted speed limit. The Engineer will: o Develop traffic simulation model for up to two (2) new intersections using Synchro software tool.
