Body
Summary and Background Information:
The purpose of this resolution is to authorize the City Manager to negotiate and award a contract to construct E 88th Avenue - Segment A.T he Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and the City entered into an Intergovernmental Agreements (IGA) in 2020 to improve E 88th Avenue from I-76 to Highway 2. The amendment has subsequently been amended twice. The City has also sought funding through the Rebuilding America’s Infrastructure with Sustainability and
Equity (RAISE) grant program but has not been successful to date. Current funding is only sufficient to construct a portion of the project. Due to the physical
constraints of the drainage system, the western portion of the project (from I-76 to just west of the O’Brian Canal) was designated as Segment A and design was completed for that segment. The project will widen Segment A to 4 lanes and add a raised median, turn lanes, and a signal at the entrance to the Mile High Flea Market. In
addition, sidewalks will be added to improve multimodal transportation, and landscaping and lighting will also be improved. The drainage system will be installed to support
Segment A as well as provide detention and an outfall for future improvements to the eastern segments of the project.The design of Segment A was completed and the City posted a Request for Bids for construction of the bridge in October. Bids were received on November 18, 2024. Five bids were received and HEI Excavating, Inc. was the low responsive bidder at a total cost of $10,641,974.93.
