BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project includes furnishing and installing approximately 6,500 tons of asphalt concrete, pavement fabric, thermoplastic pavement striping and markings, traffic signal detector loops, adjustment of utility frames and covers to grade, and other incidental and related work, all as shown on the plans and specifications for the above project. The existing pavement condition warranted resurfacing at this location. No changes are proposed to the existing striping and parking except to add Class 2 bike lane striping in conformance with the City of Lodi Bikeway Master Plan. Traffic closures will be required to construct the project. The contractor may close portions of the roadway to through traffic for certain critical paving operations. The 400 -foot section just south of Kettleman Lane may be closed to all traffic for up to two days. While this section of the roadway is reconstructed, detours will be set up. Finally, the entire project may also be closed to through traffic for one working day while the top lift of pavement is placed. Local traffic will be handled through the project. Notifications to the public will be mailed to property owners adjacent to the project limits and advertised in the Lodi News Sentinel to keep the public informed about the project staging and traffic controls. FISCAL IMPACT: In the near term, maintenance costs will be reduced. As the pavement ages, pavement maintenance steps will be initiated. FUNDING AVAILABLE: The money for this project has been fully funded through the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). A request for appropriation of funds will be made at contract award. Project Estimate: $741,000 Budgeted: 06107 fiscal year Planned Bid Opening Date: Au t 2, 2006 { Richard C. Prima, Jr.!� Public Works Director l� Prepared by Tiffani M.
