DESCRIPTION
This CSA will provide professional engineering services to perform required roadway configuration and design, signal support structural design, utility coordination, subsurface utility exploration (SUE), permitting, sidewalk and drainage design and plan preparation to signalize the intersection of Longfellow Boulevard and N. Crystal Lake Drive, to improve the traffic flow and safety of the intersection.
This project was initially considered and budgeted as a traffic study to determine what type of intersection improvement would be most beneficial, however, after discussions with County Traffic Operations and Roads & Drainage director, it was decided to move straight into design as a traffic signal.
The Longfellow Blvd at N. Crystal Lake Dr Intersection Improvement Project is included in the FY 2025-2026 CIP for the Roads & Drainage Division. The intersection of Longfellow Blvd and N. Crystal Lake Dr meets the County’s requirements for a signalized intersection. County staff has negotiated a CSA with the Consultant to provide design services for this Project. The Consultant is to perform these services at a total not-to-exceed fee of $411,187.81 and will be completed in accordance with the project schedule and compensation as detailed in “Exhibit A”.
