| Resolution - Engineering: Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to Contract 18588, and related documents, with Freese and Nichols, Inc., for construction phase services, related to the reconstruction of Broadway, from Avenue Q to Avenue E, to be utilized for the 2024 Street Bond Project. |
On November 5, 2024, Lubbock voters approved the issuance of $103 million, for a street improvements bond package, for the purpose of providing permanent public improvements. The funding provides for street improvements, including, but not limited to sidewalks, utility line improvements, relocations, traffic signals, necessary and related storm drainage facilities, and the acquisition of land and rights-of-way for the full-width dedication.
Broadway is currently a 3-lane historic brick-paved road. With Capital Improvements Project 92896, Broadway from Avenue Q to Avenue E, a 0.8-mile section of the 3-lane historic brick, is to be replaced with concrete pavement.
Drive lanes, turn lanes, bike lanes, and parking lanes are to be concrete. The crosswalks and intersections are to be modern brick pavers.
The project will include streetscape and landscape enhancements, drainage improvements, traffic signal improvements, as well as required water and wastewater replacement and improvements.
On January 14, 2025, the City Council awarded Professional Services Agreement 18588 to Freese and Nichols Inc., for design phase services for the Broadway Reconstruction. The contract was in the amount of $2,631,026 for a duration of 15 months.
Staff is now recommending award of Amendment No. 1 to Contract 18588, with Freese and Nichols, Inc., for $1,354,695 and an additional 36 months, to provide construction phase services, in relation to the construction phases of Broadway street reconstruction. |
