Staff Report for a Resolution Accepting the Work for Annual Overlay/Rehabilitation 2010-11, Project No. 10-149-38-327
Staffreport
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff recommends acceptance of the work, filing of the Notice of Completion, and authorizing the City Manager to release the Maintenance Bond for the subject project upon successful completion of the one-year maintenance period.
BACKGROUND
The streets included in the subject project were selected based on information from the City's Pavement Management System. Street selection was also determined by the amount of available funds, proximity to future projects, and other engineering factors.
Roadway reconstruction was completed on the following street segments associated with the subject project:
· Andover Street from Burkhart Avenue to Lewelling Boulevard
· Astor Drive from View Drive to Lake Chabot Road
· Begier Avenue from Chetland Road to Bancroft Avenue
· Pearson Avenue from Gilmore Drive to Valley Street
· Johnson Street from Leonard Drive to Gilmore Drive
· Valley Street from Pearson Avenue to Gilmore Drive
· Maria Drive from Leonard Drive to Johnson Street
· East half of Bancroft Avenue from San Leandro Creek to Callan Avenue
Streets were reconstructed utilizing a cement-stabilized base process. This process involves removing the top layer of asphalt concrete (AC), mixing portland cement into the road base to provide a stable foundation, and installing a surface course of AC. This method of rehabilitation costs significantly less than traditional road reconstruction methods, as it reduces the amount of labor, hauling and raw materials.
This project also constructed eighteen curb ramps along the street segments listed above to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. Six sets of rubber speed cushions from the Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program were incorporated into this project and installed along Victoria Court and Victoria Avenue.
