Re: 2008 Pavement Management Project: Traffic Control Analysis
Backqround/Discussion
In 2004 a traffic controi analysis was done for the Thompson Grove Neighborhood. The traffic
control analysis was completed in July of 2004 and then on July 6, 2005 Council approved the
implementation of the traffic control changes. The traffic control changes were made with
success and no problems were encountered.
Since that study, it was determined the City as a whole should be reviewed for traffic control
signage to help ensure consistency in the signage and that intersections have the proper
intersection control. It was determined that it would not be feasible to do the whole City at
once, plus the implementation of changes would be challenging at that scale. So the direction
was to do traffic control analysis in future pavement management areas or in future seal coat
areas or districted as outlined in the pavement management program.
The next pavement management area is scheduled for 2008 as outlined in the CIP for the
Ideal/immanuel area. Please see the attached map for the proposed streets that would be
reclaimed as part of the project. As part of the project a proposal was requested from SEH to
do a traffic control analysis of the area. The proposal is attached for review and consideration.
The cost for the engineering report would be $5,940. The study cost would be part of the total
project cost for the 2008 Pavement Management project. The recommendations produced in
the report would be implemented by Public Works.

The proposed scope of this study is similar to the sample traffic conh�ol plan completed by Bonestron in
July 2004 that you provided Co Chad Setterholm. This analysis includes fieltl review of tl�e exisYing
intersection traffic control, review of the truffic votumes on roadways inetuded in the CiCy's
Comprehensive plan, and preparltion of a report summarizing recomrnendaCinns Cor inCersecCion traffic
conCrol modificatious. Also inclttcled is a meeting with the CiCy to determine ar�as of concern and
existing City standards and �olicies. Additional traffic counts and detailed intersectio�� analysis using
Synchro or other soFtware is not inclucied as pate of this work. Analysis of Park IIigh School txaffic is
also not included as part oF this work.
This work wilt be billed hourly, with a not-to-cxceed cost of �5940, at currenf billing rates plus
reimbursable expenses as part of the 2008 PavemenC Manageinent contract. If additional services are
reqaested by the City, we will review additional costs with the City prior eo biliii�g for these services.
Please review the attacheci work plan, and eontact Cl�ad SeCCerholm at G51.4)0.2911 or me at
