The Village of Mount Prospect"s Comprehensive Plan and Bicycle Plan both identify opportunities for better
connections between parks, schools, destinations, and neighboring communities for pedestrians and bicyclists.
One challenge that has been recognized to promote walking and biking is to provide a safe crossing between
Melas Park and Meadows Park. The two parks are divided by Northwest Highway (US Route 14) and the Union
Pacific Railroad tracks. A key transportation goal for the Village of Mount Prospect is to construct a pedestrian
bridge over the roadway and railroad tracks linking these two parks. A location map depicting the location of
this proposed project area is attached.
Both parks are unique and draw residents from all areas of town. Melas Park is co-operated by the Mount
Prospect Park District and the Arlington Heights Park District. It is owned by the Metropolitan Water
Reclamation District of Greater Chicago and leased to the Village of Mount Prospect. Melas Park facilities
include a Visual Arts Center, soccer fields, baseball/softball diamonds, dog park, and walking paths. The park
also hosts the Village"s annual 4th of July festivities. Meadows Park is owned by the Mount Prospect Park
District and includes an aquatic center, playground, and baseball/softball diamonds. The proposed pedestrian
bridge will be constructed at the northeast corner of Melas Park and the southwest corner of Meadows Park.
Approximately 17,000 vehicles travel Northwest Highway and the Union Pacific Railroad handles 70+ freighl
and commuter trains on a daily basis. The closest pedestrian crossing to the project location is approximately
2/3 of a mile away at Central Road. This limitation discourages residents from biking and walking in the

Village. The proposed pedestrian bridge will improve safety for those wanting to visit the parks as well as
other local and regional destinations. It will also provide a key link to our bikeway system and expand
opportunities for alternative modes of transportation in the Village. Construction of a pedestrian bridge at this
location will accomplish a key goal of the Village"s Strategic Plan.
Village staff will follow the formal federal process to complete a Phase I Engineering Study that includes a
right-of-way survey, topographic survey, data collection, alternatives analysis, drainage analysis,
environmental survey, and lighting review all incorporated into a Project Development Report. Completion of a
Phase I Engineering Study approved by IDOT will make the project eligible to apply for state and federal
funding for final design engineering (Phase II) and construction (Phase III). The Congestion Mitigation & Air
Quality Program (CMAQ), Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (ITEP), Surface Transportation
Program (STP), and Invest in Cook Program are some of the programs that provide up to 80% funding (Phase
II and III only) to improve transportation systems. The Village has been successful in the past securing
federal funding for transportation projects and staff will be prepared to apply for funding when there are
future calls for projects.
The primary focus of the study will be to analyze various bridge designs and solicit input from stakeholders
including our residents. A pedestrian bridge is often visually appealing and can serve as a gateway feature for
the Village. Challenges include spanning both the railroad tracks and Northwest Highway, and designing ramps
on either end that meet handicap accessibility requirements. To ensure a comprehensive study is performed,
consideration will also be made for an underpass below the rail and roadway facilities. While an underpass
allows for easier access for all users, challenges include potential underground utility conflicts, lighting, and
drainage. The chosen consulting firm will assist the Village in determining the optimal design for the project.
Village staff is seeking to enter into a contract with a consulting firm for Phase I Engineering services. The
study is expected to be completed by the end of 2019 but will include a status presentation to the Village
Board of Trustees in early 2019. Funds for this project have been allocated in the 2018 Village Budget.
As permitted by the Qualification Based Selection process, the Village solicited a Request for Proposals and
Cost Proposal from six (6) engineering consulting firms to provide Phase I Engineering services for the
pedestrian connection of Melas and Meadows Parks. Each firm was asked to submit as part of their proposal
the following information:
1. Resumes of key personal and related experience on similar type projects
2. Summary of the firm"s approach to the project
3. Staff hour estimate and cost proposal for major phases of work
4. Project schedule
The Village received three (3) submissions. The three consulting firms" proposals were reviewed on the basis
of their understanding of our goals and their methodology to complete the study. These firms were also
interviewed by Village staff. They were then rated (with a maximum score of 100 points) according to these
specific categories: background of firm & personnel, related project experience, proposed services, proposed
schedule, work effort, and proposal content. The rankings are as follows:

Burns & McDonnell has put together a very strong project team with extensive experience working on complex
Phase I Engineering studies, including bridge and underpass design. Their proposal is thorough and anticipates
the many different tasks to complete a study that can smoothly move to Phase II Design Engineering. They
have a working relationship with Union Pacific Railroad, Metra, the Illinois Commerce Commission, and IDOT
as well as the necessary skills to engage key stakeholders and the community throughout the process. Their
experience and proposal gives Village staff confidence they can successfully analyze both bridge and
underpass structures and guide us in determining the optimal design for the project. It is Village staff"s
opinion that Burns & McDonnell understands the goals of the study, has provided a thorough proposal based
on their extensive experience, and will provide the best product at an appropriate number of hours dedicated
to the study. Village staff estimated 1000 hours to complete the study at an approximate cost of $125,000.00
($125 per hour).

BURNS`MSDONNELL 0 Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Phase I Study
UNDERSTANDING OF THE STUDY AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE STUDY TO MEET
Understanding of Study:
Bums & McDonnell understands the Village of Mount Prospect wishes to engage the services of a consulting firm to prepare
a Phase I Engineering Report for a proposed shared use pedestrian/biking bridge over Northwest Highway (US 14) and
Union Pacific Railroad/METRA tracks to connect Meadows Park and Melas Park. The shared use bridge will provide for a
safer and a more convenient connection between parks, schools and destinations for both Mount Prospect and Arlington
Heights for pedestrians and bicyclists. It is noted that there was a bicycle related fatality in 2013 at the Central Road at -grade
crossing.
The study area will extend from the northeast comer of Melas Park south of the UPRR to the southwest corner of Meadows
Park. The corridor will cross the right-of-way of the UPRR/METRA that includes 3 tracks and potentially utility corridors
and the right-of-way of US 14 which includes numerous utilities including power lines on the north side along with sewer
and watermain. There is roadway lighting along US 14 that will need to be considered as part of the study.
The roadway and railroad barriers create safety concerns and inconvenience for the entire community including the students
of the Fairview Elementary School that is separated by these transportation barriers. Numerous pedestrian friendly facilities
exist adjacent to the parks including the Melas Park Off -Street Trail, Davis Street/Prospect Avenue off-street paths, the
Gregory Route on -street bike route and future NWMC Northwest Highway pedestrian corridor. A connection across the
existing barriers will create more opportunities for the community to utilize the adjacent parks and these other pedestrian
friendly facilities.
The existing terrain is relatively flat with the railroad tracks being elevated about 5 -feet in the study area. There is no
floodplain or wetlands adjacent to the study area.
Objective No. 1 — Developing Consensus between Stakeholders:
Burns & McDonnell is a leader in obtaining consensus between multiple stakeholders. Our success on the IL 59 and US 20
Interchange Project and Barrington Road Corridor Study with IDOT are excellent examples of how we engaged stakeholder
with different objectives to develop a common solution, within the project schedule, that all parties agreed was the best
solution to move forward. On the Harlem Avenue Study, we engaged multiple counties, the Forest Preserve District and
homeowner groups to secure a corridor for a three (3) trail through multiple jurisdictions, for the Village of Frankfort. Our
keys to success involve:
✓ Identifying all of the stakeholders and highlighting the key stakeholders
✓ Engaging stakeholders early in the study
✓ Developing exhibits and information to stakeholders that is easy to understand and follow
✓ Being transparent and forthright
✓ Communicating regularly throughout the project
Our plan for the Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Study involves the development of a stakeholder involvement plan and
the utilization of a modified Context Sensitive Solution model similar to what we have used on IDOT Projects. Out approach
on this project will include similar results with stakeholder consensus at a reduced cost to the Village. We have identified the
following key stakeholders on the project, but will coordinate with you to ensure all are considered:
Illinois Department of Transportation (Local Roads) • Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater
Illinois Department of Transportation for US 14 Chicago
(Programming) . Arlington Heights
Illinois Commerce Commission . Illinois Commerce Commission
• Union Pacific Railroad
Residents
• Metra 0 Northwest Municipal Conference
• Park District for Arlington Heights and Mount Prospect 0 Business Owners
School Districts 0 Utility Companies

Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Phase I Study
Objective No. 2 — Securing Funding for the Project:
In the Request for Proposal, you indicated interest in identifying and applying for funding support for the cost of the Phase II
and III Engineering along with the construction cost. We understand what key elements must be highlighted to improve the
ranking of projects with the agencies that control the funding dollars and have identified and secured funding for numerous
project we have been involved with in the Chicagoland area. We believe this project is a good candidate for numerous
bicycle and pedestrian programs including:
The Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (ITEP)
• Illinois Safe Routes to School (SRTS)/ Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP)
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ)
Division of Traffic Safety Funds (DTS)
• Surface Transportation Program (STP)
Invest -in -Cook
• Outdoor Recreation Grants -in -Aid programs through the IDNR
Rivers and Trails Program or RTCA
We have worked with numerous municipalities including Glen Ellyn, Glenview, Frankfort and South Barrington to help
secure funding from many of these funding programs. Our approach includes understanding the requirements through
communication with the approving agencies and due diligence to ensure our applications hit on all of the key factors.
We believe the Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge is a good candidate to secure funding through multiple programs. By
working together with the other public stakeholders and partnering on applications the chance of success will improve. We
will help guide the Village through the process.
Objective No. 3 — Adding Value and Developing Creative/Innovative Solutions:
Another method Burns & McDonnell will reduce local cost and the value to the Village of Mount Prospect is by looking for
ways to reduce the project costs and providing value to the project. We are leaders in this area. Below a few examples:
Burlington/IL 47 Intersection Improvement — Kane DOT hired Burns & McDonnell to secure federal funding through
the completion of a Phase I Study for turn lane improvements at a rural intersection in Kane County. Early in the project
Bums & McDonnell prepared a cost estimate based on the conventional solution the County preferred which was
significantly more than the DOT had to complete the project and the DOT was going to cancel the project. Burns &
McDonnell developed a solution to the intersection that reduced the cost by 40% and improved capacity. This
improvement is the first roundabout completed on an IDOT SRA Route in IDOT District One.
Steger Road — The Village of Frankfort hired Burns & McDonnell to prepare contract documents for a roadway and
bridge widening project. The Phase I study was completed by another consultant. Upon review of the study, Burns &
McDonnell identified multiple improvements that reduced the cost by 30%, reduce the construction schedule and
improved future maintenance cost. We prepared an amendment to the Phase I and the contract documents meeting the
construction schedule and saving the Village significant cost.
Bloomingdale/606 Trail — Bums & McDonnell worked with the City of Chicago during the study phase to identify
methods to inexpensively rehabilitate and enhance 37 existing bridges including the moving of one bridge to a new
location to save time and money for this linear park/trail through a dense urban area.
These are only a few examples of how Burns and McDonnell has provided value to our clients through our commitment to
their success. We will bring the same enthusiasm and commitment to the Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Project to
make the project successful in your eyes and the public.
The RPF discusses utilizing an overpass structure for the pedestrian bridge and this may be the best solution. It is noted that
an overpass will require 23 -feet of vertical clearance over the railroad requiring almost 400 feet of horizontal
distance/switchbacks to meet the existing ground adjacent to the bridge. This will require a large footprint and will be a
visual barrier. Barriers of this size and type can become issues by dividing community which is the opposite of reason for the
improvement. Additionally, multiple utility lines including the electric lines on the north side of US 14 will be impacted.
One option to consider will include investigating the feasibility of utilizing a pedestrian/bike underpass or a combination
in lieu of a bridge. This while offering some construction challenges provides for easier ADA access, overhead utility
relocation and future maintenance. It also will provide for safer pedestrian access during the winter months. We have
designed similar under passes that were constructed under live train traffic (see below).

The feasibility of innovative design methods will be reviewed and their effects on maintenance responsibilities and
transportation needs evaluated. It is during this design phase that imagination and the utilization of new materials and
products will be considered. The need for retaining walls (such as cost effective MSE walls) at the ramp/bridge approaches
will be assessed and their anticipated costs compared
with cast in place retaining walls.

Data Collection
Mapping - In an effort to reduce the upfront cost of the study a topographic survey will not be completed until Phase II of the
project. Minor pick up survey will be used to supplement digital aerial mapping. During the study digital aerial mapping
and available contour information will be used for the study. This information will be provided by the Village for use by
Burns & McDonnell.
Utility Coordination - Burns & McDonnell will contact Joint Utility Locating Information for Excavators (JULIE) to
identify public and private utility companies with facilities in the project area. Bums & McDonnell will contact the
companies with facilities within the project area to obtain the available information regarding the location of their facilities.
Burns & McDonnell will also coordination with the Village to obtain information regarding the facilities they have within the
project area. This information will be used to minimize utility impacts during the design of the project.
Available Data - Traffic, train and pedestrian information will be developed through available IDOT, UPRR And METRA
data along with input from the Village.
Environmental Coordination and Permitting Identification
Preparation of an Environmental Survey Request Form - Burns & McDonnell will also submit an Environmental Survey
Request Form (ESRF) through IDOT. This survey considers special waste, public lands, cultural features, and biological
resources. We will characterize the potential for noise impacts based upon the proposed plan. We will also characterize the
potential for air quality impacts and the compatibility and conformity with the 2040 plan. Burns & McDonnell will document
whether Section 4(f) properties are present and potentially impacted by the project. A programmatic Section 4(f) Evaluation
will be prepared, if necessary.
PESA Analysis - Burns & McDonnell expects to follow IDOT's process (BLR Manual) in documenting a special waste issue
within the corridor. A Special Waste Screen will be submitted as part of the Environmental Survey Request. No
geotechnical investigation will be conducted as part of the PESA. Bums & McDonnell will perform a detailed review of
existing site documentation and a site analysis. It will be necessary to acquire an updated commercial database report. A
number of quality vendors can provide this report to Bums & McDonnell this cost will be invoiced to the Village as a direct
cost and is not included in this proposal. Burns & McDonnell will complete the PESA in the IDOT format. This guidance
will be summarized and included in the report. We assume that the Phase I Report will follow the format in BLR 22210.
Permit Identification - The Phase I Study will determine the permits necessary for the construction of the project that will
need to be obtained during future phases of the project.
Existing Condition Studies
Crash Analysis — A crash analysis will be conducted to evaluate the existing conditions of US 14. Traffic data collected as
part of the data collection task will be supplied to the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) for preparation of
forecasted traffic. The Village will be requested to provide individual accident reports for the years 2013 -2017 for use in the
crash analysis. This information will be evaluated to identify 5% segments, wet weather accident sites, and other potential
problem areas adjacent to the study area. Accident evaluation guidelines prepared by IDOT's Bureau of Local Roads will be
used for this analysis.
Design Criteria - Our study will include the development of project design criteria and a thorough study of the existing
geometric, pedestrian/multi-use path and ADA requirements determine the design needs or any design variances need to be
identified in the project report.
Alternative Evaluation Studies
The initial alternative evaluation stage of the study will include identifying solutions and evaluating the impacts. Both
horizontal geometries and vertical profiles will be developed for each solution. Rough cost estimates will be prepared to
assist in the evaluation. Alternative structural solutions, bridge/underpass, with various bridge types will be considered. After
alternatives have been developed a matrix using qualitative and subjective criteria will be developed to identify fatal flaws
and compare alternatives.
Refine Preferred Solution
• Preferred Alternative Reimement — Following the selection of a preferred alternative Burns & McDonnell will detail
and refine the alternative to develop a better understanding of impacts and challenges of the solution.
BURNS`MSDONNELL 0 Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Phase I Study
Drainage Studies - A drainage technical memo will be prepared for the project. A general drainage map will be
prepared for the overall project site showing the major drainage boundaries and drainage structures impacted by the
proposed improvements. A concept level drainage plan will be prepared showing the existing and proposed drainage
systems for the preferred alternative. The concept will meet the requirements of the Village of Mount Prospect and
MWRD Stormwater Ordinances. Improvements will be limited to addressing detention needs, stormwater conveyance
and collection systems for the improvement. The concept will identify the stormwater discharge locations for the storm
sewer system and subwatershed drainage boundaries. No modeling of major drainage features is anticipated as part of
this project.
Construction Staging/MOT Study - This work item will investigate the staging of the improvements and the
maintaining of abutting properties, railroad and US 14.
Funding Applications
• Identify Potential Funding Sources — Burns & McDonnell will work with the Village and NWMC to identify project
funding opportunities for the project. This may include meeting with funding agencies to understand the application and
evaluation processes.
• Preparation of Funding Applications — Bums & McDonnell will prepare the funding applications for the project. We
will work diligently to maximize the opportunities throughout the course of the project through design approval.
Project Report Preparation
• Draft Project Development Report— A draft project development report will be prepared in accordance with BLR
22210 (Local Project Development Report for Group II Categorical Exclusions and Design Approval) that will
summarize the engineering studies performed and to present the recommended improvement plan. The report will cover
roadway geometries, pedestrian improvements, drainage, maintenance of traffic, environmental studies and a preliminary
cost estimate.
• Final Project Development Report - After the review of the draft project development report by the Village/IDOT the
final version of the project report will be completed. This edition will address the comments received.

Experience
BLOOMINGDALE TRAIL (THE 606)
Chicago, Illinois
Burns & McDonnell was contracted by the Chicago
Department of Transportation, Streetscape and Urban
Design Group as a subconsultant to Amp to develop a
Phase I study and report for converting an abandoned
elevated rail line to a multi -use path and linear park.
The Bloomingdale Trail project is located on the
northwest side of the City of Chicago, in the
neighborhoods of Logan Square and Bucktown. The
project corridor extends along the length of a former
Canadian Pacific Railroad spur, from the west right-of-
way line of Ridgeway Avenue (3750 West) on the west
to the east right-of-way line of Ashland Avenue (1500 West) on the
east. The length of the study was approximately 2.85 miles long and
included multiple touchdown points and park improvements.
The purpose of the proposed Bloomingdale Trail project was to
identify transportation solutions that addressed congestion and
mobility issues in the area and improve community connectivity
through increased access to alternative modes of transportation. The
project addressed safety and operational needs, as well as providing
an alternative means of transportation for users and linking together
communities, residents and businesses.
The Bloomingdale Trail project provides over two miles of
uninterrupted transportation flow via an elevated multi -use path.
Access to the trail was design at two trailheads and six access parks,
spaced along the project length. The new facility, renamed as The
606, provides a means by which on -street bicyclists and pedestrians
can travel quickly and safely through already congested communities
in the City of Chicago. By converting the abandoned elevated rail
line to a multi -use path, the Bloomingdale Trail/606 project connects
the neighborhoods of Logan Square and Humboldt Park on the west
to Bucktown and Wicker Park on the east. The Trail will connect
users to local on -street bicycle lanes (shared, marked or
recommended) and to the existing City sidewalk network
Traffic and Geometric Studies
As part of the Bloomingdale Trail Phase I Study, Burns &
McDonnell performed several traffic and geometric related studies
for the project. These included:
BURNS`MMONNELL 0 Melas-Meadows Shared Use Bridge Phase I Study
CHESTNUT AVENUE BRIDGE REPLACEMENT
Glenview, Illinois
Burns & McDonnell provided Phase I and Phase II design
engineering services to the Village of Glenview for a bridge study,
Project Development Report and contract plans for the replacement
of the Chestnut Avenue Bridge. The project has involved extensive
coordination with the Village and IDOT to develop a plan which
will serve the community, accommodate future projects, and
provide minimum impact in an aesthetically attractive residential
area.
The existing superstructure was rated Structurally Deficient, with a
very high priority for replacement. The bridge type selected by
Burns & McDonnell involved replacement of the existing
superstructure with more substantial, modern box beams. Drilled
shafts will be installed to support the new deck. The bridge was
built in stages, with a single lane of traffic controlled by a
temporary signal during both stages.
The project includes a number of other features to improve traffic
flow and safety. Improved sight distance and wider sidewalks will
help both pedestrians and vehicles using the Tanglewood Drive
intersection immediately to the east. The box beam structure on
drilled shafts allows for the smallest construction footprint possible,
while still allowing for planned revisions to the roadway cross
section including a future third lane.
Burns & McDonnell served the Village by ensuring that Federal funding was leveraged to the maximum extent possible, by
taking advantage of our excellent relationship with IDOT Bureau of Local Roads staff to preview submittals and to minimize
review and response times, and by using our technical abilities to ensure that the many competing priorities of the design
effort were accommodated successfully.

RIVER DES PERES GREENWAY -
GRAVOIS TO LANDSDOWNE
St. Louis, Missouri
Burns & McDonnell developed this trail realignment and
reconstruction project for a multi -use greenway that spans 2.5 miles
along the River des Peres in St. Louis. Several alignments were
developed during the design process and presented to agencies
responsible for infrastructure within the greenway corridor, including
the City of St. Louis, Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD),
MoDOT, U.S. Army Corp of Engineers, and Metro Transit. The
project involved several bridges, including one over MO Route 366
and one over the River des Peres. The scope entailed paving,
earthwork, drainage, retaining walls, structures, permitting, traffic
signal modifications, striping, rest areas and signage. Project features
included connectivity to adjacent communities, scenic views, city park
modifications, stream bank stabilization, site furnishing, intersection
modifications, a connection to a light rail station, and stormwater best
management practices (BMPs), including rain gardens and bio-swales.
Concrete was used to construct the greenway, drainage structures and
ADA ramps. The concrete for the path was placed in an interesting
non-linear fashion to hug the contours of the area, which created a
finish that is completely ADA accessible and pleasing to use for
walking and biking. The owner also selected concrete for all
horizontal and vertical application on the project due to its longevity,
flexibility and lower lifecycle costs.
Despite the fact that a majority of the construction took place in cold
winter months, it was completed on time and with very little
disruption to the facility's users. This project was the first Great Rivers Greenway project provided within the City of St.
Louis. The district funded the project with the City of St. Louis maintaining the trail. Therefore, the trail design was reviewed
and approved by the City of Saint Louis, MSD, the Great Rivers Greenway District and MoDOT.

When complete, the Centennial Greenway will provide a multi -use
trail that connects St. Charles County, St. Louis County, and the City
of St. Louis. Burns & McDonnell developed alternatives to extend
the greenway from Heritage Park to Schaefer Park, including
crossings at Highways 364 and 94, which will improve access to
schools and parks for more than 11,000 nearby residents. The team
also developed a TAP application to secure funding for the project.
During the conceptual study phase, the team worked with
stakeholders to identify project goals, then collected data and
developed an "opportunity and constraint" map featuring two
alignment alternatives, including bridge layouts and conceptual
landscape plans. The team presented advantages and disadvantages,
as well as construction cost estimates to the stakeholders and held a
public meeting to garner support and gather public opinion. The final
planning study presented the following objectives for the project:
► Connect Trails - Connect the Katy Trail to schools,
neighborhoods and parks west of Route 94.
► Provide Safe Connection - Provide safe and contiguous on -street
and off-street bikeway connections.
► Create Transportation Choices - Provide safe and convenient
active transportation choices for travel to jobs, schools,
neighborhoods, and recreational destinations.
► Promote Health - Provide active transportation access to
greenways, trails, and recreation facilities that encourages healthy
activity for a broad range of users.
► Link People to Nature — Provide opportunities to connect people
to natural and historic features in the study area.
► Economic Development - Serve as a catalyst for economic development and encourage sustainable reinvestment along
the greenway for those properties that are not developed or are currently underutilized.

MO ROUTE 150 OUTER ROADS IMPROVEMENT
Grandview, Missouri
AW
Providing adequate access to the I-49 interchanges has long been a
challenge for the City of Grandview, Missouri. The interstate
essentially bisects the city and impedes local connectivity and
development. The MO Route 150 Outer Road design -build project
addressed this issue by extending and realigning the outer roads that
nun along the interstate and improving the sidewalk and trail system
that crosses the interstate and connects to the park and trail system
along Route 150. In addition to improving access and safety in the
area, this project provided attractive and sustainable infrastructure
that promotes future development in the community.
The city selected the Kissick Construction/Bums & McDonnell joint
venture team to deliver this project based on their design -build
expertise, City of Grandview experience, and best -value submittal.
As the design lead for the team, Burns & McDonnell worked closely
with Kissick Construction to deliver these improvements:
► Two-lane outer roadway extensions at the northeast and southeast
quadrants of MO 150 and I-49
► ADA -compliant signal improvements that allow pedestrians to
cross Route 150 and Grand Summit Boulevard
► A new left -turn lane eastbound on Route 150
► Rehabilitation of the I-49 Frontage Road Bridge over the Little
Blue River, including a new concrete precast panel bridge deck,
replacement of the barrier curb, and impact attenuation at the
bridge ends
► New sidewalks, landscaping and street lighting
► A lighted pedestrian tunnel under northeast roadway extension
► Trail improvements, including approximately 900 feet of new
trail, defined trailhead areas, park benches, trash receptacles, and
bike repair station with a manual air pump and tools for simple
bike maintenance.

ROCK ISLAND RAILROAD CORRIDOR
Kansas City, Missouri
After nearly 80 years of operation, the Rock Island Railroad ended
service from Chicago to Kansas City, and the track was abandoned in
the early 1980s. In 2016, Jackson County, Missouri, purchased 17.7
miles of the rail corridor in the Kansas City area. The county and the
Kansas City Area Transportation Authority plan to develop a shared -
use path system along the corridor that will connect to regional trail
systems, including the Katy Trail, and preserve right-of-way for
future bus or rail transit use. Burns & McDonnell is providing design
and engineering services that follow the MoDOT LPA process and
will help the county makes the most of their investment as the system
evolves with future development.
The project has two major components: environmental clearance and
engineering design. The first step is to set the "best path of trail,"
which will help the team advance the environmental work for a
Categorical Exclusion (CE2). Key factors to consider in this process
are the possible re -use of up to 14 aging rail bridges along the
corridor, safety at 14 at -grade crossings, construction schedule and
utility coordination. Specific environmental concerns include bats
and migratory birds and the historic nature of the corridor. The team
is working closely with the Missouri Department of Natural
Resources, State Historic Preservation Office, and U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service to mitigate impacts and attain the appropriate
permits to move forward.
The design team anticipates that most of the new trail will be at -grade with an aggregate surface. Special care will be taken to
provide asphalt or concrete pavement at locations where drainage crosses the trail. For the bridges, the team is working
closely with the county to analyze the costs and benefits of various alternatives, including rehabilitating existing bridges in
place, replacing bridges with new pedestrian bridges, or sliding existing bridges over to reuse as pedestrian bridges and
constructing new bridges later for bus, train and/or streetcar use. Each of these alternatives, as well as the design of trailheads
and signage, will consider the needs and character of each neighborhood along the corridor. To support that process, the team
is providing public engagement services to help make the new trail system a popular amenity for the community today, while
preserving the vision of regional transit use for the future.

Harlem Avenue is a major collector running north/south in the
southeast portion of the Village and is located in both Cook County
and Will County. Development along the Harlem Avenue corridor
was anticipated with the completion of the I-57/Stuenkel Road
interchange that included the reconstruction of the Harlem
Avenue/Stuenkel Road intersection.
Bums & McDonnell was contracted by the Village of Frankfort to
to prepare a feasibility report for Harlem Avenue between Laraway
Road and Stuenkel Road. The project limits were being extended to
maximize the points for a future STP application for Federal
Funding. The project was initiated by the Village of Frankfort to
determine if the project is a good candidate for Federal Funding with the Will County Government League (WCGL). The
minimization of the cost of the study while maximizing the results and conclusions were critical to the community.
The feasibility study include the evaluation of the most appropriate typical section of Harlem Avenue from Steger Road to
Stuenkel Road to accommodate the anticipated development along the corridor. This include both rural and urban typical
sections with and without pedestrian improvements. Alternatives were also developed and evaluated at the offset intersection
of Harlem Avenue and Steger Road. Additionally, various options were developed at both the Harlem Avenue/Laraway Road
and Harlem Avenue/Stuenkel Road intersections to consider future development and safety concerns at these locations.
Multiple matrixes were prepared to compare the geometric, traffic, safety, cost, environmental and crash factors for each of the
typical section and alternative areas along the project. A "shopping cart" approach was used to combine the different elements
that were evaluated. This information was used to narrow down and evaluate alternatives. The project also included
coordination with IDOT, FHWA, Will County and Cook County to obtain input on the direction of the study.
The study was concluded with a summary the findings and recommendation on the direction the project should it be carried

STEGER ROAD WIDENING & RECONSTRUCTION
Frankfort, Illinois
k
Burns & McDonnell provided design engineering services to the
Village of Frankfort for the reconstruction and widening and of 1 -
mile of Steger Road between Scheer Road and US 45. The original
Phase I design included an alternative to widen the existing bridge
and install a multi -cell box culvert. Burns & McDonnell performed
an independent Bridge Type Study to investigate a more cost
effective alternative. The results of the Bridge Type Study
determined that a lone 5 -cell box culvert was more economical
(75k Savings). Burns & McDonnell presented and coordinated with
the FHWA and IDOT to get approval for the 5 -cell box culvert
design.
During the Phase II design, federal funding was taken away from
the project for the bridge portion since the sufficiency rating of the
bridge did not meet the requirements. Burns & McDonnell
performed additional traffic counts to confirm the discrepancy
between the Phase I and the IDOT traffic database. Hydraulic
models developed to show that the existing bridge was functionally
obsolete. The bridge sufficiency rating calculation was recalculated
with hydraulic model and the traffic counts and it was determined
that the existing bridge was eligible for federal funding. Burns &
McDonnell coordinated with IDOT District 1 and the Central
Bridge Office to re -secure the federal funds for the project.
Burns & McDonnell developed the plans, specifications, and estimates for the Steger Road widening and reconstruction. The
improvements included widening to provide a center turn lane and raising the roadway over Jackson Creek to remove it from
the floodplain. Design elements included; the design of a multi -cell box culvert, multi -use path, environmental permitting,
detour routing signing, traffic control, maintenance of traffic, water main replacement, storm sewer design, pavement
marking, roadway signing, erosion control, landscaping and earthwork management.
