Public Content
Information
A key component of the Village's Strategic Plan is to create a complete pedestrian infrastructure network that
promotes multi -modal transportation options. Also, supporting safe and effective active transportation (bike and
pedestrian) is a goal of the Greenest Region Compact, 'Collaborating for Sustainable Communities', which the Village
is a signatory. This project looks to enhance safety for pedestrians crossing at uncontrolled intersections under the
jurisdiction of the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The project scope includes work at two intersections
and is described below:
Central Road & Pine Street
Central Road is a four -lane arterial road that has an average daily traffic (ADT) of 17,700 vehicles in the
segment that includes the Pine Street intersection per 2014 IDOT traffic counts. Pine Street is a local road with
an ADT of less than 1,000 vehicles. The intersection is controlled with STOP signs on Pine Street and has
crosswalks across the north and south legs only. The Village's 2017 Central Road Pedestrian Crossing Study
recommends a new crossing at this intersection. Design will include evaluating a refuge island and associated
road work, pavement markings, signage, lighting, sidewalk ramps, and adjustments to existing infrastructure.
Estimated construction cost for this work is $175,000.
Central Road & Cathy Lane
Central Road is a four -lane arterial road that has an ADT of 21,300 vehicles in the segment that includes the
Cathy Lane intersection per 2014 IDOT traffic counts. Cathy Lane is a local road with an ADT of less than 1,500
vehicles. The intersection is controlled with STOP signs on Cathy Lane and has crosswalks across the north,
south and west legs. The existing crosswalk across Central Road has pedestrian push buttons to active flashing
yellow beacons in advance of the crossing. The objective per the Village's 2017 Central Road Pedestrian
Crossing Study is to replace the crosswalk across Central Road including removing the yellow flashing beacons.
Design will include evaluating a refuge island and associated road work, pavement markings, signage, lighting,

sidewalk ramps, and adjustments to existing infrastructure. Estimated construction cost for this work is
$125,000.
Staff is seeking at this time to enter into a contract with a consulting firm for design and construction engineering to
facilitate construction of the crosswalk improvements at these two intersections. Preliminary concepts for both
crossings were included in the Village's Central Road Pedestrian Crossing Study (attached); note these designs are
preliminary and subject to change as a result of this proposed construction engineering work. All work will require
review and approval from IDOT.
Request for Proposals (RFP).
Proposals were solicited from three (3) consulting engineering firms. Three (3) submittals were received. Each firm
was asked to submit the following information:
1. Resumes of key personnel 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

Discussion
Gewalt Hamilton Associates of Vernon Hills, Illinois (GHA) has put together a very strong project team with
experience in the design of numerous municipal transportation projects. They are currently working on crosswalk
projects for the Village at Central Road & Emerson Street as well as Main Street (IL Route 83) & Busse Avenue. The
firm also served as the Village's consultant on the Kensington Road Project in 2011. Similar to the proposed 2019
Central Road Crosswalk Project, all of these past projects required extensive coordination with the Illinois Department
of Transportation (IDOT). GHA has an experienced, professional engineering staff with a thorough understanding of
the project coordination, communication and documentation necessary to successfully complete the project within the
proposed schedule. In addition, the firm also submitted the lowest cost proposal.

CONSTRUCTION ENGINEERING E IME;
It is our practice to adhere to construction industry standards and insist on compliance with the project plans and
specifications in an effort to efficiently produce a quality project. For this project GHA is estimating 20 days of
full-time inspection and 20 days of part-time inspection.
As such, Construction Engineering Services will be performed in accordance with the services outlined in the
Request for Proposal, as well as Illinois Department of Transportation standard procedures including, but not limited
to, the following:
1. GHA will oversee a scheduled pre -construction meeting with the Village and the Contractor and other
identified project stakeholders prior to the start of construction and provide the meeting attendees with a
summary in the form of minutes for their records.
2. Prior to construction commencement, GHA will utilize measures outlined in our Public Relations Plan to
determine impacts on schools, local businesses, places of worship, parks, and other local projects. We will
include the Village, Village Hall, Public Works Department(s), School District(s), utility companies, and
permitting agencies as members of our project communications team to collaborate and determine the best
methods for identifying, reaching, and maintaining relationships with the project stakeholders. Once
communications plan is established, GHA will continue to coordinate and communicate with stakeholders
using resident letters, project flyers and newsletters as requested to ensure they are properly and
consistently informed of the project's progress.
3. GHA will review drawings, diagrams, illustrations, brochures, catalog cuts, shop drawings, project schedules,
and other data which the contractor is required to submit for conformance with the design concept and
compliance with the contract documents.
4. GHA will confirm the existing horizontal and vertical site control network that was established at the time of
the existing conditions survey. The horizontal and vertical control will be offset to areas that will not be
disturbed. Control will be maintained throughout the duration of the project.
5. GHA will provide horizontal and vertical construction layout of the proposed improvements as necessary.
GHA will generally stake on a 3 -foot offset with a cut/fill to final grade (Curb points will be graded to full height
top of curb). Curb points will be set at a maximum of 50 -foot intervals on straight lines and at grade breaks,
and at a maximum of 25 -foot intervals on curved lines. If a curved curb radius is less than 5', we will set the
radius point only. For curves with a radius between 6' and 25', we will set the radius point with a minimum of
two (2) points on the curve. For curves with a radius greater than 25', we will set the beginning and end of
curve and grade breaks on curve at maximum interval of 25'. No radius point will be set on curves with a
radius greater than 50'. Re -staking of pavement / curb / sidewalk is not included in this proposal.
6. Ensure all materials and procedures are in conformance with the contract, plans and specifications.
7. Maintain daily documentation in accordance with IDOT's documentation of contract quantities and complete
weekly reports for the contractor's and Village's use.
S. Create and agree to pay estimates with the contractor, and then provide recommendations to the Village.
9. The Contractor is to secure final permit from Illinois Department of Transportation for work being completed
within the State right-of-way.
10. If a field change or Authorization is required, whether force account or agreed unit price, GHA will notify and
advise the Village prior to making any decisions that may affect the budget. In addition, our documentation of
the Contractor's daily activities will help provide sufficient information to permit verification of the nature and
costs of any changes in plans or authorized extra work.
11. GHA will make observations of the utility marks provided by the J.U.L.I.E. system and address potential
conflicts with the contractor.
12. GHA will schedule and moderate weekly project construction coordination/status progress meetings with the
Village and Contractor(s) and provide attendees with a summary in the form of minutes for their records.
13. GHA will coordinate with Village of Mount Prospect staff for quality assurance testing for the HMA and
concrete. Our sub consultant, Soil & Material Consultants, Inc., will administer the quality assurance testing
for the field and laboratory requirements regarding soils and aggregate quality. We will confirm and document
that all the materials used on the site meet or exceed the quality requirements of the contract and IDOT-
issued Project Procedures Guide.
14. GHA will prepare monthly pay requests for the Village's review and provide the required documentation and
correspondence for the Village of Lincolnshire to submit to IDOT.
15. GHA will compile a continual construction punch -list through the duration of the project.
16. GHA will schedule a final walk-through upon project completion with the Village's representatives and IDOT
to generate a final punch list of deficiencies.
17. GHA will keep current record drawings as the work is performed. We will annotate by hand all revisions,
substitutions, variations, and omissions made or discovered during construction. Upon project completion,
GHA will provide the Village of Lincolnshire with hard copies and an electronic copy of the record drawing
plan set.
18. GHA will coordinate contract closeout procedures with the Contractor, Village and IDOT to ensure an
expedient and productive closeout.

Mount Prospect,
The Village of Mount Prospect was seeking to have
improvements made to the intersection of Central
Road at Emerson Street in order to increase
pedestrian safety and decrease certain turning
movements which had historically been a source of
vehicular crashes. The improvements which were
determined to achieve these goals included the
construction of a new right-in/right-out median on
Emerson Street north of Central Road, a new barrier
median for pedestrian refuge on Central Road, and
associated pedestrian signage improvements.
Central Road is currently under jurisdiction of the
Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT), which
necessitates IDOT approval of the design and a
permit for construction.
GHA was retained by the Village to provide
operational review of the intersection to determine
traffic impacts of the proposed right-in/right-out
median. This operational review was presented
to the Village's Transportation Safety Commission
by GHA staff, during a meeting where stakeholder
questions were also answered.
GHA also performed Design Engineering for the
proposed improvements, and developed a plan
set for IDOT permitting review. GHA also
developed an Opinion of Probable Cost for the
improvements. Coordination with IDOT is
ongoing as revisions are being completed in order
to receive IDOT approval of the design.

Gewalt Hamilton's recent experience working on crosswalk projects for the Village of Mt.
Prospect gives us firsthand experience of just how important these safety improvements are to
the Village and the pedestrians who cross busy routes such as Central Road every day. GHA's
current work on the proposed Central Road at Emerson Street crossing improvements means
that we are very familiar with the goals of the 2019 Central Road Crosswalk Project and how this
project will execute the Village's Strategic Plan. The proposed pedestrian crossing improvement
at Cathy Lane will provide safer pedestrian access to the Mt. Prospect Park District's Central
Community Center for those residents traveling from the neighborhoods directly south of
Central Road. The proposed pedestrian crossing improvement at Pine Street will allow for safer
pedestrian access to both downtown businesses and the Metra train station for those residents
and commuters who live north of the intersection. GHA understands the work and processes
that need to be completed to efficiently move this project from design, to IDOT permit approval,
and on to successful construction. Our experience with the Central Road at Emerson Street
project will allow us to hit the ground running on the 2019 Central Road Crosswalk Project,
hopefully limiting the number of submittals required to receive our IDOT permit. Lessons
learned from the Central at Emerson project are outlined later in the Project Approach. GHA is
also aware of the IDOT pavement resurfacing and sidewalk ramp reconstruction project that was
completed on Central Road within our project area. We will strive to complete a design which
minimizes impacts to newly constructed areas as much as feasible.
To fully understand a proposed improvement, the engineers at GHA like to dive right into the
design concept and determine the applicable design standards. The Village's proposed barrier
median width of 4 feet does meet the minimum amount required by the FHWA for a pedestrian
crossing island. The FHWA preferred width for a crossing island is actually 8 feet, but
recognizing the space and cost constraints, the proposed 4 -foot design is the correct choice. To
facilitate these proposed barrier medians, the existing pavement on Central Avenue will need to
be symmetrically widened by 3.58 feet on both sides. This widening will accommodate both the
pedestrian refuge area on the median as well as Type B-6.12 barrier curb on both sides of the
median. The pavement widening will need to follow standards outlined in the IDOT Bureau of
Design and Environment (BDE) Manual. According to the BDE Manual, for the Central Road
posted speed limit of 35 MPH, a widening taper rate of 40:1 is required. The concepts included
with the Request for Proposal show a fairly long painted median on the opposite side of the
proposed barrier median. GHA believes that this painted median can be shortened significantly,
decreasing the length of Central Road which requires widening. Taking into account the
required taper rates and the shortened painted median, GHA estimates impacts of almost 400
24 of 34
feet along Central Road at each intersection at a minimum. However, the Village should be
aware that the pavement widening taper to the east of Pine Street falls within the turn -lane
taper for Willie Street. IDOT may require a consistent pavement width tying into the Willie
Street taper, which increase the pavement widening by a significant amount. Pavement
widening could be decrease by considering shifting the proposed pedestrian crossing to the
east leg of the Pine Street and Central Road intersection. Sketches of both intersection concepts
can be seen below:
CENTRAL & PINE: CONCEPT
CENTRAL & CATHY: CONCEPT
The pavement widening required to construct the 2019 Central Road Crosswalk improvements
will cause several impacts to adjacent facilities. As mentioned in the Request for Proposal, will
impact as many as 5 existing light poles near the intersection of Pine Street and Central Road.
Tree impacts are also a possibility. It appears that between 2 and 4 power poles could be
25 of 34
impacted at this intersection, and early coordination with ComEd will be critical. Utility
coordination will be important for both intersections of this proposed project. GHA is hopeful
that any utility relocations at the intersection of Cathy Lane and Central Road will be minimal.
The pavement widening may also cause impacts to some drainage inlets at each intersection.
This could result in drainage structure adjustments and associate storm sewer work.
Sidewalk reconstruction will be required adjacent to the pavement widening throughout the
Pine Street location and for a portion of the Cathy Lane location. The sidewalk reconstruction
will ensure correct ADA compliant cross -slopes are maintained, and that a minimum of 7 -feet
wide sidewalk is provided wherever the design cannot accommodate a buffer from the back of
curb. Pavement widening along the radii at Cathy Lane and Pine Street will also be required.
Depending on the extent of this widening, sidewalk ramp details showing ADA compliant slopes
may be required at all 4 corners of both intersections. Special care will need to be taken to
ensure that these designs can fit within the existing Right -of -Way, and GHA will perform a
boundary survey to determine where exactly the Right -of -Way is located. Two commercial
entrances and a private entrance on Central Road, near the Pine Street intersection, will also be
impacted by the pavement widening. GHA will ensure that these driveways are reconstructed at
the required slope outline in the BIDE manual. Finally, GHA will show the proposed advanced
signing for the pedestrian crossings, ensuring that these signs meet all requirements outlined in
the MUTCD.
The primary goal for this project is to provide for safe pedestrian crossings of Central Road at
Cathy Lane and Pine Street. GHA has identified several additional objectives as important to
achieving this goal.
• Performing an accurate topographic and boundary survey will provide a strong basis for
our proposed design. Accurate survey will allow us to more quickly identify possibly
utility conflicts or other design issues and mitigate those issues early in the design
process.
• GHA will also focus on limiting pavement widening as much as feasible, which will limit
impacts to drainage, utilities, and the existing sidewalk. Limiting these impacts will allow
GHA to develop as cost efficient of a design as possible.
• GHA will work with the Village to develop a design concept, and then clearly present this
design at a Transportation Safety Commission meeting, incorporating any comments the
Commission may have.
• Another objective GHA will focus on is developing a design which incorporates all
applicable IDOT standards along with items preferred by IDOT Permitting, thereby
limiting the number of submittals required. GHA's previous work on the Central Road at
Emerson project gives us valuable insight into exactly what IDOT Permitting wants to see
in a crosswalk improvement project submittal. By anticipating what IDOT Permitting's
comments could be, GHA hopes to ensure the project meet's the Village's schedule.

• After receiving our permit from IDOT, GHA will develop an accurate estimate of probable
construction cost and orchestrate a smooth contractor bidding process.
• Once construction has begun, GHA's resident engineer will ensure that the project is
constructed according to the plans, following all applicable standards and details. The
resident engineer will perform onsite inspection of the work to confirm it is of good
quality and perform all documentation required by the Village and IDOT.
• Finally, GHA will also coordinate construction activities with the Village and local
stakeholders, keeping the public happy and informed.
After GHA receives Notice to Proceed, we will initiate a kick-off meeting with the Village as soon
as possible. GHA places great importance in proactive communication with its clients, and we
believe this leads to an efficiently run project and quality final product. After the kick-off
meeting, GHA will immediately begin topographic and boundary survey of the project area.
Once survey is completed, the project manager will review all data and begin the developing a
concept design. At the same time, GHA will coordinate with its environmental consultant, Huff
& Huff, to begin developing all necessary special waste documentation.
After addressing any concerns the Village might have on the initial proposed design concept,
GHA will develop a short presentation for the Transportation Safety Commission. GHA's project
manager, Michael Vasak, has previously presented the Central Road at Emerson Street project to
the Commission. GHA recognizes the importance of the Commission's approval of the project,
and we will present the 2019 Central Road Crosswalk project in a clear and concise manner. Mr.
Vasak enjoys answering all stakeholders' questions, and GHA recognizes the importance of
educating the public on the importance of this project, as well as gathering input from those
people who will benefit most from this project.
As mentioned above, GHA will incorporate lessons learned from the Central Road at Emerson
Street pedestrian crossing project, in an attempt to limit the number of IDOT permitting reviews
required. GHA will use Autotrun to investigate vehicle turning movements that may be
impacted by the proposed construction, and we will provide IDOT with exhibits showing that
these turning movements can be performed by all required design vehicles. Our recent
experience with IDOT permitting has proven that they will also request an exhibit showing that a
WB -65 vehicle can make turns with encroachment. Other comments received on the Central
Road at Emerson Street project, which GHA would incorporate into our initial submittal for this
project, including using an N70 surface mixture, providing a signed Municipality Sidewalk and
ADA Acceptance letter, and using hydroblasting for any necessary pavement marking removals.
To ensure a smooth transition from Phase II to Phase III, GHA has the Resident Engineer and
other construction inspection staff involved during the design process. Construction staff will
27 of 34
typically perform constructability reviews prior to the project going out for bid, and these
reviews allow for a better design and better informed construction staff. For the Central Road
Crosswalk project, our Resident Engineer, Jonathan Zuhr, will also be completing the light pole
relocation design. GHA's Project Engineer, Julie Roberts, also has Phase III inspection
experience. In addition, all Phase II staff will be available to answer questions throughout
construction. This continuity of service through Phase II and Phase III, including staff
overlapping in both phases, creates an excellent final product and greatly minimizes change
orders.
Managing the experience of the public during a construction project is imperative to ensuring a
positive perception of the improvements. That's why our team employs a comprehensive in-
house public relations plan which provides objectives, guidelines, strategies, and processes to
establish realistic public expectations of construction impacts. Our goal is to provide useful
information to stakeholders, conveniently and in a timely manner.
GHA will collaborate with the Village of Mt. Prospect to identify groups who have interest in the
project, such as residents, the Mt. Prospect Park District, local business owners and, tenants.
Together we will determine the most effective methods for communicating with stakeholders
about upcoming operations in advance, allowing the public to plan around potential
inconveniences.
Sharing information is only part of the process. Listening and responding to stakeholder
concerns is crucial. Our construction staff encourage residents to call or email them directly with
questions, concerns, or special requests, and they make every effort to address these issues
immediately. Once construction activity nears completion, our staff reconnects with
stakeholders and thanks them for their patience. This is an excellent opportunity to solicit
feedback in addition to bringing closure to the project. We gauge stakeholder satisfaction as a
significant component in the overall success of a project and, use input from the community to
further refine our processes going forward.
As the Village of Mt. Prospect's primary point of contact with the public, our construction staff
excel at addressing resident and business owner concerns. In fact, many of our clients have
received letters from residents complimenting the attentiveness and responsiveness of our
construction staff. We will always work diligently to provide the highest quality of service to the
Village of Mt. Prospect along with its residents, businesses, and visitors in a customer -oriented,
efficient, and fiscally responsible manner.

•
Gewalt Hamilton Associates generally agrees with the project schedule outlined in the Request
for Proposal. We believe that these deadlines can be met, assuming IDOT Permitting review
goes as expected. Delayed response from IDOT Permitting could necessitate a later bid date,
but the deadline as -shown is feasible. However, GHA's experience has shown that a November
bid date does not typically result in favorable unit prices for asphalt pay items. In November,
contractors must guess what asphalt prices will be for the following year, and their estimates are
generally high. If the Village considers a January bid date, asphalt unit prices will be known, and
contractors will bid accordingly. In addition, a January bid date will have no effect on the
anticipated construction start date in April. Below is GHA's anticipated project schedule, which
mirrors what the Village had outlined.

General Scope of Work
Agency: Village of Mount Prospect
Project: 2019 Central Road Crosswalk Project
Location: Central Road & Pine Street and Central Road & Cathy Lane
A key component of the Village's Strategic Plan is to create a complete pedestrian infrastructure network
that promotes multi -modal transportation options. This project looks to enhance safety for pedestrians
and bicyclists crossing at two uncontrolled intersections under the jurisdiction of the Illinois Department
of Transportation (IDOT) and is described below:
Central Road & Pine Street
Central Road is a four -lane arterial road that has an ADT of 17,700 vehicles per 2014 IDOT traffic counts.
Pine Street is a local road with an ADT of less than 1,000 vehicles. The intersection is controlled with STOP
signs on Pine Street and has crosswalks across the north and south legs only. The objective is to install a
new crosswalk across Central Road on the west leg. Design will include evaluating a refuge island and
associated road work, pavement markings, signage, lighting, sidewalk ramps, and adjustments to existing
infrastructure. The attached email includes a conceptual plan developed for the intersection as part of a
recent corridor study along Central Road. It is not considered a firm design but to be used as a starting
point in discussions with Village staff. Funds for construction will come from the Village's Capital
Improvement Program.
Central Road & Cathy Lane
Central Road is a four -lane arterial road that has an ADT of 21,300 vehicles per 2014 IDOT traffic counts.
Cathy Lane is a local road with an ADT of less than 1,500 vehicles. The intersection is controlled with STOP
signs on Cathy Lane and has crosswalks across the north, south and west legs. The existing crosswalk
across Central Road has pedestrian push buttons to active flashing yellow beacons in advance of the
crossing. The objective is to replace the crosswalk across Central Road including removing the yellow
flashing beacons. Design will include evaluating a refuge island and associated road work, pavement
markings, signage, lighting, sidewalk ramps, and adjustments to existing infrastructure. The attached
email includes a conceptual plan developed for the intersection as part of a recent corridor study along
Central Road. It is not considered a firm design but to be used as a starting point in discussions with Village
staff. Funds for construction will come from the Village's Capital Improvement Program.
At a minimum, the following tasks shall be included in the scope of services. Additional tasks, at the
consultant's recommendation, will be considered by the Village.
Design Services:
1. Coordinate a Project Kick -Off Meeting with Village Staff.
2. Perform field survey of topography, utilities, and right-of-way features at both intersections.
3. Coordinate with public utility companies.
4. Prepare one complete set of construction plans, details, specifications, and bid documents.
5. Sidewalk to meet all applicable PROWAG requirements and comply with the ADA.
