Authorize the City Clerk to advertise to receive bids. FISCAL IMPACT Funding in the amount of $113,639 has been budgeted and appropriated in the Fiscal Year 2017- 2018 Capital Improvement Program for the construction of the EI Camino Real/Jamboree Road Median Modifications and Striping Revisions Project. The total engineer's estimate is $87,313. The cost to design and construct this project is partially funded by OCTA's Measure M2 Regional Capacity Program (RCP) in the amount of $71,119. CORRELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN The project contributes to the fulfillment of the City's Strategic Plan Goal B: Public Safety and Protection of Assets. Specifically, the project implements Strategy #3, which among other items, is to ensure continuous maintenance and improvement of traffic control and transportation facilities. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND EI Camino Real is designated as a secondary arterial roadway on the Orange County Master Plan of Arterial Highways (MPAH) and has four travel lanes and a raised, landscaped median through the Tustin MarketPlace shopping area. Under the Measure M2 RCP Project O Intersection Capacity Enhancement (ICE) Program, OCTA awarded funds to the City to design and construct a second eastbound left -turn lane on EI Camino Real at Jamboree Road to serve additional traffic stacking demand. The project proposes to modify 6 EI Camino Real/Jamboree Road Median Modifications and Striping Revisions Project CIP No. 70238 July 18, 2017 Page 2 the existing landscaped median and restripe the eastbound leg of the intersection to accommodate the second left -turn lane. Currently, eastbound vehicles on EI Camino Real turning left onto Jamboree Road stack out of the left -turn pocket and impede the eastbound through traffic at the intersection. This occurs in the mid-day and PM peak periods. The proposed project will add capacity and reduce congestion by removing the extended queue due to a single left -turn lane and adding the second left -turn lane in the eastbound direction. The construction components for the EI Camino Real/Jamboree Road project will include a median modification, roadway construction, traffic signal detection modifications and signing and striping revisions on the west leg of the intersection. The tentative schedule for construction of this project is as follows: • Authorization to Advertise for Bids......................................................07/18/2017 • First Legal Advertisement...................................................................07/27/2017 • Second Legal Advertisement..............................................................08/03/2017 • Bid Opening........................................................................................08/30/2017 • Award of Contract............................................................................... 09/19/2017 • Start Construction...............................................................................10/10/2017 • Complete Construction........................................................................11/22/2017 Since this project involves the improvement of existing facilities with minor modifications, it is Categorically Exempt under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requirements.
