CIT( OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Plans and Specifications and Advertisement for Bids for Traffic
Signal and Lighting Installation, Highway 12 (Kettleman Lane) and
Central Avenue, and Turner Road and Stockton Street/Miwok Drive
MEETING DATE: April 21, 1993
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council approve the pians and specifications for
the above project and authorize advertising for bids.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This project is to install traffic signals at the
intersection of Highway 12 (Kettleman Lane) and Central
Avenue, and Turner Road and Stockton Street/Miwok Drive.
Both intersections meet Caltrans signal warrants and are
being funded with Federal funds and Street Development Impact Mitigation Fees.
Many years ago, the City Council approved standardizing the signal controllers. The
controller is the computer that operates the signal timing. The current vendor has
changed ownership many times over the years and the City is not receiving the
support needed to maintain and operate the signals. Due to this poor service, staff
recommends changing to another vendor. Sometime in the near future, staff will be
recommending standardizing on controllers.
FUNDING: Originally Budgeted: 1992/93
Budgeted Fund: Street Impact Mitigation Fee and Intermodal
Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA)
Current Appropriation: $216,000
Total Project Estimate: $204,000
