Transcription

1 MPRD s Keith Mione (Community) Park Midlothian Road Entrance Traffic Signals Purpose: The Midlothian Road entrance to Mundelein Park & Recreation District s (MPRD s) Keith Mione (Community) Park would become unbearably congested during peak times of park use. In collaboration with MPRD, the Lake County Division of Transportation and the Illinois Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity (IDCEO), new traffic signals were installed to address concerns. KEITH MIONE PARK ENTRANCE PRE-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included the installation of new traffic and ADA accessible pedestrian signals and sidewalk ramps, MPRD s entrance road delineation improvements and associated paving markings. KEITH MIONE PARK ENTRANCE POST-PROJECT Keith Mione Traffic Signals Budgeted Amount $378,000 Original Contract Value $347,330 Change Orders 41,000 Total Project Cost $388,330 % -Under/+Over Budget +2.7% Stakeholders: External stakeholders included the Keith Mione Park users including MPRD s Big & Little Child Development Center and Learning Center Preschool, and the travelling public. Project Challenges & Successes: The challenges were the requirement to maintain park and preschool access during construction and the delayed IDCEO grant due to State budget issues. Bike path realignment caused costs to increase however the new signals provide safe access to the park.

2 Safe Routes to School Purpose: A $250,000 grant was awarded to Mundelein through the Illinois Safe Routes to School Program to enhance safe pedestrian travel throughout designated school travel plan areas. These areas were defined as being within 1/2 mile radius of District 75 s Carl Sandburg Middle School and Washington Early Learning Center. LINCOLN AVENUE SAFE ROUTE PRE-PROJECT Scope: The project scope included the replacement of dilapidated sidewalks and/or completing sidewalk links within the Village right of way as well as on Washington Early Learning Center and Sandburg School properties to comply with current accessibility standards. LINCOLN AVENUE SAFE ROUTE POST-PROJECT Safe Routes to School Project Budgeted Amount $250,000 Original Contract Value $302,978 Change Orders -28,750 Total Project Cost $274,228 % -Under/+Over Budget +9.7% Stakeholders: External stakeholders included the parents and students of Mundelein Elementary School District 75 and all of the residents affected by the sidewalk improvements. Project Challenges & Successes: Challenges included the desire to perform the work within the grant dollar limits, complete the work on school property during summer recess and to minimize the inconvenience during construction. The Village successfully utilized the SRTS grant to provide more safe accessible routes to neighborhood schools despite the modest cost increase due to higher than expected Portland Cement prices.

3 Midlothian Road Sidewalk Extension Beckett s Crossing to Graham Fuel Store Purpose: The lack of a pedestrian connection from Beckett s Crossing and areas further north led to the installation of a sidewalk along the east side of Midlothian Road to the Graham Enterprises Fuel and Convenience Store at the corner of Midlothian Road and IL 60/83. MIDLOTHIAN ROAD PRE-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included the installation of new sidewalk and associated landscape restoration. MIDLOTHIAN ROAD POST-PROJECT Keith Mione Traffic Signals Budgeted Amount $50,000 Original Contract Value $43,675 Change Orders 0 Total Project Cost $40,878 % -Under/+Over Budget -22% Stakeholders: External stakeholders included the Illinois Department of Transportation and Graham Enterprises.. Project Challenges & Successes: The challenges were to limit the removal of vegetation by minimizing the footprint of the grading and new sidewalk. The new sidewalk extension connects the non-motorized travelling public with a safe route to the Graham Enterprises Fuel and Convenience Store.

4 East Hawley Street Streetscape Renovations Phase 1 and 2 Purpose: The deteriorating condition of the streetscape along and adjacent to the office and commercial properties along Hawley Street, east of the CN Rail Road tracks, was improved to better reflect the increased patronage. EAST HAWLEY STREETSCAPE PRE-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included, re-orientation of on-street parking ADA accessible sidewalk and ramps drainage improvements paving and striping street trees and lawn restoration EAST HAWLEY STREETSCAPE POST-PROJECT East Hawley Streetscape Phase 1 & 2 Budgeted Amount $365,000 Original Contract Value $360,548 Change Orders 0 Total Project Cost $360,548 % -Under/+Over Budget -1.2% Stakeholders: Businesses along the East Hawley Street corridor were impacted during construction as were the travelling public. Project Challenges & Successes: The challenges included the requirement to maintain access to businesses during construction. CDBG grant funding in the amount of $183,000 was obtained in order to subsidize the project costs.

5 FY2015 Street Infrastructure Project Purpose: In order to renew deteriorating pavement and chronic water main breaks, the FY2015 Street and Infrastructure project continued with infrastructure renewal in the Loch Lomond (Beach-Dublin-Lucerne) and Ravine Slope (Wildwood-Glendale-Norton) Subdivisions. Street resurfacing also occurred on various streets and the Public Works Crystal Street entrance. LOMOND PRE-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included the replacement of the existing water and select sanitary sewer mains, complete street reconstruction including curb and gutter and new storm sewer in the Loch Lomond and Ravine Slope subdivisions. Resurfacing occurred on various streets as well as the Public Works Crystal Street entrance. LOMOND PRE-PROJECT FY2015 Street-Infrastructure Project Budgeted Amount $3,000,000 Original Contract Value $2,693,193 Change Orders 0 Total Project Cost $2,693,193 % -Under/+Over Budget -10.2% Stakeholders: Area residents within the construction project as well as service providers such as garbage collection, mail delivery, school bus and private service contractors. Project Challenges & Successes: Accommodating the basic services of garbage collection, mail delivery and school bus routing is always a challenge. Restoration of the lawn areas was difficult or delayed in some areas due to inadequate soil depth and in other areas where work was delayed or out of sequence. Restoration on future projects will be improved with timely notice to contractors of punch list items and soil depth requirements. Upon project completion, drainage has been improved, pavement has been stabilized and future water main breaks lessened.

6 FY2016 Street-Infrastructure Part 1 Project Purpose: Renew the pavement and sidewalk ramps in the Fields of Ambria Subdivision and streets in the Cambridge Country Subdivision. CAMBRIDGE COUNTRY PRE-PROJECT CAMBRIDGE COUNTRY POST-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included the resurfacing of all streets in Ambria and select streets in Cambridge Country as well as sidewalk ramp improvements. FY2016 Street-Infrastructure Part 1 Budgeted Amount $1,800,000 Original Contract Value $1,725,477 Change Orders 284,802 Total Project Cost $2,010,279 % -Under/+Over Budget +11.6% Stakeholders: Area residents within the construction project as well as service providers such as garbage collection, mail delivery, school bus and private service contractors. Project Challenges & Successes: The project was impacted by the unexpected extent of the poor sub-pavement layers and base material. In Ambria, a large section of intermediate depth asphalt on Ambria Drive failed to maintain adhesion to the underlying base course and required additional remediation. Additionally, Springbrook Court in Cambridge Country failed completely upon surface removal and required complete re-construction. Upon completion, all streets within the Fields of Ambria have been resurfaced together with improvements to the sidewalk ramps in compliance with the current public right of way accessibility guidelines. For Cambridge Country, all but one of the original concrete streets have been resurfaced with asphalt.

7 FY2016 Street-Infrastructure Part 2 Project Purpose: The re-construction of Walnut Street, Clearbrook Park area streets and Winthrop Court. WALNUT STREET PRE-PROJECT Scope: The scope of work included the reconstruction of Walnut Street, Clearbrook Park area streets and Winthrop Court including replacement sidewalk, water main, sanitary and storm sewers. WALNUT STREET POST-PROJECT FY2016 Street-Infrastructure Part 2 Budgeted Amount $2,400,000 Original Contract Value $2,147,577 Change Orders 325,000 Total Project Cost $2,552,577 % -Under/+Over Budget +6.3% Stakeholders: Area residents within the construction project as well as service providers such as garbage collection, mail delivery, school bus and private service contractors. Project Challenges & Successes: The project was impacted by the unexpected extent of poor subgrade soils causing an increase in the extent of sanitary and storm sewer repairs/modifications and the unforeseen difficulty in accessing and making new water main connections to the existing system. The densely populated area adjacent to Walnut Street is now better served through improved pavement and utilities where Clearbrook Park and Winthrop Court streets and streetscape have been modernized.

8 US 45 (Lake St.) Sanitary Sewer Improvements Purpose: The sanitary sewer outlet for the northern portion of the Diamond Lake neighborhood area had deteriorated to an unreliable condition and its location deep beneath and along Lake Street made it extremely difficult to service. The existing sewer experienced backups and significant sewer service call-outs. Scope: The scope of work included the replacement of the existing sewer in the vicinity of US 45 (Lake Street), Allanson Road and Diamond Lake Road and including Seymour Court. Townline Watermain Replacement Project Budgeted Amount $637,000 Original Contract Value $1,551,906 Change Orders 255,229 Total Project Cost $1,807,135 % -Under/+Over Budget +280% Stakeholders: External stakeholders included all commercial and residential customers along the US 45 corridor including, but not limited to, Bill s Pub, Cash for Gold, Computer Guys and the combined commercial-residential property area north of Bill s Pub, the State of Illinois and the travelling public. Project Challenges & Successes: The initial estimate of funding required was insufficient but given the pressing need, other planned projects were deferred and the necessary funding was provided. The existing sewer would have to be kept in service while the replacement sewer was installed. Rather than excavate and work within the travel lanes of US 45, new sewer was drilled beneath US 45 in two locations. Increased paving requirements and additional spot sewer repairs contributed to the increased cost. The new sanitary sewer will provide long term reliability benefits throughout the length of the affected area.
