Administrative Recommendation:
City Council grant permission to enter into Consultant Agreement No. AG-C-341 with DKS Associates for
engineering services for Project No. CP0820, 2008 Signal Improvement Project.
Background Summary:
The purpose of the project into review the traffic signal / railroad operations with BNSF within the city.
'
Over the last three years, the rail traffic on the BNSF railroad has significantly increased and the
technology available for traffic signal / railroad operations has improved. In addition, there are new
requirements in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) that are in affect for traffic
signal / railroad operations.
This project will evaluate the traffic signal operations for the railroad interconnected signals for the at-
grade BNSF rail crossing intersections in Auburn in relation to the MUTCD and industry standards. The
scope includes the evaluation of the Main Street, 3rd Street NW and 379' Street NW at the BNSF
crossings.
In addition the Consultant will provide plans, specifications and engineering estimates for the
recommended improvements at the intersection of 37th St NW and B St NW. Staff is recommending
improvements at this location due to re-occurring damage to the railroad gates that under state law the
City is responsible to pay for.
The not-to-exceed amount for this agreement is $46,124.
A project budget contingency of $151,876 remains in the identified 2008 portion of the 328 Capital
Improvement fund.
