As requested in the RFP, our Fee Proposal has been submitted under separate cover. There are several key factors that we feel make AGA, in general, and Mr. Chalap Sadam, our designated Project Manager, in particular, especially qualified to provide the required services and more. These factors include the following: ♦ Our Team's expertise in all phases of turnkey Traffic Management Center/ITS improvement traffic signal coordination projects, including planning, design, construction, operation and maintenance, will greatly assist us in helping to achieve project goals, Per our references, no other consulting traffic and transportation engineering firm in Southern California is nearly as experienced as AGA in two key areas: development, implementation and fine-tuning of coordination timing plans, and ongoing operation of various traffic signal control systems. Our experience in all components of signal timing enables us to develop optimized coordination plans for real world traffic conditions. ♦ AGA staff have successfully completed many multijurisdictional traffic signal coordination projects involving a multitude of different hardware and software systems. While the City of Santa Ana is not formally included as part of the project, we understand the importance of working with them at shared intersections to maximize project benefits. Our extensive experience in achieving consensus among various Cities, Counties and Caltrans with different systems and, quite often, different engineering and political concerns, is a definite asset that will help us achieve project objectives, as was the case in AGA's development of a large scale multijurisdictional traffic signal coordination project for 260 signals in Orange County's GMA-6, and also for 650 signals involving 17 jurisdictions throughout the San Bernardino Valley for SANBAG. ♦ Our Team is especially experienced in the turnkey design/construction of Traffic Management Centers (TMCs), We recently completed the design/construction of the Buena Park TMC as part of the Citywide ITS Project that we conducted for the City, a project conducted by the Crosstown/CompView/AGA Team that included close coordination with Caltrans District 12 staff, It is important to note that the Buena Park Citywide ITS Project was awarded "Project of the Year" by the Orange County Traffic Engineers Council (OCTEC). Other TMCs designed and/or built by our Team members include the Cities of Garden Grove, Los Angeles, San Marcos, and San Diego; DOTS in the States of Nevada, Idaho, and Washington; and Caltrans. ♦ AGA staff have timed thousands of signals in Orange County alone over the past twenty years, including Citywide and/or multi -corridor coordination timing projects for La Habra, Fountain Valley, Fullerton, Santa Ana, Brea, Buena Park, Huntington Beach, Lake Forest, and Costa Mesa. Additionally, for OCTA, we conducted the Traffic Signal Coordination Forum Project, involving all Orange County cities; developed the Orange County Traffic Signal Coordination Program, the road map for TRANSPORTATION CONSULTING ENGINEERS 211 E. Imperial Hwy., Suite 208, Fullerton, CA 92835 (714) 992-2990 FAX (734) 992-2883 E-mail: aga@albertgrover.imm �;�� Mr. Pritam Deshmukh April 20, 2015 Page 2 County -wide signal coordination; conducted the Euclid Street Traffic Signal Synchronization Demonstration Project, OCTA's first multijurisdictional signal coordination project; and completed six additional corridor projects led by OCTA. It is important to note that all these corridor projects were all conducted as turn -key projects, with AGA responsible for all components of the projects. In addition, AGA completed nine additional Project P funded projects led by the cities. Furthermore, as part of OCTA's Consultant Team for the Traffic Signal Synchronization Project (previously referred to as the BRT Project), AGA developed and implemented signal synchronization plans for the Harbor Boulevard, State College Boulevard, and Bristol Street Corridors. It is important to note that Mr. Sadam served as Project Manager for the vast majority of the above listed projects, including design and overseeing installation of fiberoptic communications and upgrades on Harbor Boulevard in Costa Mesa. ♦ AGA staff have designed and installed various ITS elements including CCTV, fiberoptic communication systems, wireless interconnect systems, and serial or Ethernet based systems, as well as upgraded central systems including Siemens ACTRA/TACTICS, Econolite Aries and Centracs, McCain QuicNetPro, Intelight MaxView, and Caltrans systems. We also have provided support services for Telvant MIST and Multisonics VMS systems, and we provide complete design/build services, design/manage services or design/bid services as appropriate. ♦ AGA's methodology for developing optimum coordination timing involves far more than simply plugging traffic count data into off-the-shelf signal timing software programs for generalized conditions. Because of our extensive experience in operating signal systems for a multitude of cities, our coordination timing plans are based on real world conditions often not addressed by others. ♦ AGA proposes to basically use our same staff members that we have utilized for many years to provide identical services for many similar projects to design and provide the installation/construction of the signal control/communication hardware/software and various other ITS components and to develop, implement, fine-tune and operate the new timing plans for this project. All of our project team members have extensive local Orange County experience in developing and implementing both local and coordination timing plans, specific to all of the controllers utilized on both project routes, ♦ AGA's overall approach to this project is that we can provide much more than simply conducting various tasks – we make systems work. Our goal is to utilize our expertise in helping the various participating agencies develop large scale muftijurisdictional signal coordination for the maximum overall public benefit at a reasonable cost. It should be noted that AGA is requesting no modifications to the City's standard Professional Services Agreement, and that we have no existing or potential conflict of interest which might impair or undermine our ability or credibility regarding the proposed services. AGA looks forward to working with the Cities of Costa Mesa and Santa Ana on this very important project. If you have any questions or require amplification on any aspect of this proposal, please call Mr. Sadam or me. This Technical Proposal and our accompanying Fee Proposal are valid for a period of 90 days from the date of submittal. Mr. Sadam and I are authorized to negotiate and contractually bind AGA, Respectfully submitted, ALBERT GROV R & ASSOCIATES C -4x& - L Albert L.

Albert Grover & Associates (AGA), in conjunction with our data collection subcontractor National Data & Surveying (NDS), our equipment installation subcontractor Crosstown Electrical & Data, Inc. (Crosstown), our Audio/Video subcontractor CompView, Inc. (CVI), our construction subcontractor Sherwood Builders for Traffic Management Center (TMC) related remodeling, and vendor (Econolite) possess all of the necessary qualifications, experience and manpower to provide the requested services. These services include not only signal timing synchronization services, but also traffic signal/interconnect/ITS component design, equipment purchase and installation, system integration, TMC design and construction, and ongoing operational support services. AGA's services are not just routine, but rather the application of experience and knowledge to first properly identify a problem and then to provide the most appropriate and cost-effective solution. AGA is not a company that provides only labor service for client designated tasks; rather, AGA provides a high level of intellectual support to accomplish client objectives. AGA's unique blend of Civil Engineers, Traffic Engineers, and skilled technical traffic signal system maintenance/monitoring personnel provides a synergy that typically results in project success beyond expectations. AGA's wide range of services offered can be divided into six primary areas of expertise: traffic engineering, day-to-day traffic signal operations, transportation planning, civil engineering/ construction management, communication and operational control of traffic signal systems, and actual onsite City Traffic Engineer staffing. While we are well known and respected for our work in all six of these areas, we are perhaps best known for our extensive expertise and experience in the field of multijurisdictional traffic signal coordination. It should also be noted that AGA operates traffic signal systems for various governmental agencies and does so remotely from our Fullerton office, which includes a mini TMC. Our unique "hands-on" signal experience, combined with our senior staffs previous experience as City Traffic Engineers, allows AGA staff to possess a very realistic understanding of what it takes to adequately serve the public while maintaining political harmony. It is important to note that for both 2008 and 2010 AGA was recognized as one of the most successful architectural, engineering, planning, and environmental consulting firms in the country, having been named as one of the Top 200 "Hot Firms" "Congratulations to AGA nationwide, as recognized by ZweigWhite. Additionally, AGA received the "Local Street Project of the Year" award for 2011 "'"'"'�"""" for winning the prestigious from the California Transportation Foundation for the San CTF Local Street Project g the Year Award. Well Bernardino Valley Coordinated Traffic Signal System Projectof - deserved. The AGA team that we conducted for SANBAG, a project that included � interconnect design and construction, and timing plan did outstanding work on development, implementation and monitoring/maintenance for this project." 650 signalized intersections throughout the San Bernardino Caltrans District 8 Valley, including signals at 48 Caltrans interchanges. There are many reasons why we feel that the AGA Project Team is most qualified to conduct and successfully complete this corridor project. While all of these reasons are more fully discussed in various sections of this Technical Proposal, key relevant factors include the following: ♦ We have a thorough knowledge of traffic conditions not only throughout the Sunflower Avenue corridor, but also along the various coordinated crossing arterials that must be considered when developing coordination plans for the corridors. Via our multijurisdictional and/or citywide projects, we have developed coordination timing plans for these crossing arterials, We fully understand the importance of evaluating the impacts to these crossing arterials of the coordination plans that we develop for this corridor. References ♦ We conducted the Euclid Street Traffic Signal Synchronization Demonstration Project (Euclid Street Project), the first multijurisdictional signal coordination project funded and overseen directly by OCTA. This project, developed during 2006- 2007, served as the "test" project for OCTA to assess the overall feasibility and effectiveness of similar future projects such as the project that is the subject of this RFP. The significant improvements in all Since incorporation in 1993, AGA has Measures of Effectiveness (MOEs) obtained by AGA, due in no small part to become a recognized leader in the our project management expertise and our ability to achieve consensus field of traffic signal interconnect and among multiple cities and Caltrans, became the standard that subsequent coordination timing. projects were measured against. I ♦ We were selected by OCTA to conduct both the Chapman Avenue TLSP and Orangethorpe Avenue TLSP Projects, both of which were similar to not only the Euclid Street Project, but also to the Sunflower Avenue corridor that is the subject of the current RFP. As with the Euclid Street Project, significant improvements in all MOEs were achieved on both the Chapman Avenue and Orangethorpe Avenue Projects, portions of which were conducted simultaneously. ♦ We have developed many Traffic Management Centers in Southern California, including those in use in Caltrans Districts 7, 11, and 12. Recent implementations include the TMCs in the Cities of Buena Park and Garden Grove. Shown below is the TMC designed and constructed by the Crosstown/CVI/AGA Team as part of the Buena Park Citywide ITS Project. This Buena Park project was honored as `Project of the Year" by the Orange County Traffic Engineers Council (OCTEC). LA While we are very well known and respected for our expertise in developing and implementing highly efficient coordinated timing plans, we have extensive expertise and experience in all phases of the proposed projects. Via our many previous multijurisdictional traffic signal interconnect and coordination timing projects, we have designed, constructed, implemented, fine-tuned, operated and maintained WWWGPS time synchronized independent systems utilizing fiber optic, hardwire, wireless, cellphone, and telephone interconnect methodologies. Recognizing that equipment design and installation are significant components of the Sunflower Avenue Corridor Project, it is important to note that our design/build experience helps to make us good construction, installation and operational managers as well as good designers. The fact that AGA staff actually go into the field to troubleshoot and solve operational problems tremendously enhances our design expertise. ♦ We are experienced in the design and operation of all types of signal control systems, including Econolite, Siemens, Multisonics, McCain, Naztec, Traconex and Model 170/2070 systems and have, for many years, operated and maintained both Type 90 (NEMA) and Model 170/2070 systems for governmental agencies from our offices in Fullerton. We presently operate/monitor over 300 traffic signals for eight different cities, including Seal Beach, La Habra, Fountain Valley, Fullerton, Montclair, Highland, Rialto and Loma Linda, and recently designed a signal system Master Plan for the City of Highland. All of these systems include coordination with Caltrans signals. ♦ AGA previously prepared the City of Costa Mesa Traffic Signal System Master Plan which identified specific improvements on each corridor to upgrade the Citywide system. Detailed knowledge of I K the Citywide Master Plan, recent work on the Baker Street/Placentia We continue to be extremely pleased with Avenue corridor project, the current ongoing Adams Avenue corridor the timing coordination plans developed, project, and the several timing development and implementation monitored and maintained by AGA projects in the City will allow AGA to approach the project more throughout the City." holistically and identify/implement cost effective solutions on the project City of Fountain Valley corridor. -- Referem s ♦ One of our key staff members who will be instrumental in conducting the Sunflower corridor project — Mr. Felipe Ortega — has been providing on-call signal system support services to Costa Mesa for the past five years, including troubleshooting the City's VMS system; replacing parts to get the system up and running; bringing additional signals online; and supporting City staff in operating the system on an ongoing basis. This includes assisting the City in converting the VMS system on Harbor Boulevard to the Econolite ASC/3 system. ♦ One additional key factor further amplifying AGA's unique qualifications to conduct the proposed Sunflower corridor project relates to the ongoing monitoring of signal coordination. The RFP notes that project requirements include two years of continuing signal timing support to monitor, observe, fine-tune and optimize the signal timing and phasing operations of all corridor intersections, including proactively surveying the corridor on a regular and frequent schedule, observing the traffic and fine-tuning the signal timing as required. These are the identical services that AGA has been providing to a wide range of Southern California cities for many years, including citywide monitoring for La Habra, Fountain Valley, Fullerton and Seal Beach in Orange County. ♦ Our unique combination of experienced Professional Engineers and highly trained Signal System Specialists enables us to provide this service in an efficient, cost-effective manner, with our own Traffic Operations Center (TOC) serving as the hub for this activity. ♦ Our key employees' previous experience as City Traffic Engineers, and our current service as Contract City Traffic Engineers, allows us the opportunity to view situations "from both sides of the fence." Combined with our many previous consensus - building projects, including the Euclid Street Project, the Bolsa Avenue/15t Street corridor and Tustin Avenue/Rose Drive Corridor Projects, the OCTA Traffic Forum, and the OCTA Orange County Traffic Signal Coordination Program, we are confident that these multijurisdictional projects can be completed to the satisfaction of all responsible agencies. ♦ Mr. Chalap Sadam, AGA's Vice President, has been designated as Project Manager for this very important project, and will devote as much of his time as necessary to ensure the timeliness, cost-effectiveness and overall success of the projects. Mr. Sadam's extensive experience with Orange County signal synchronization projects has resulted in the establishment of professional relationships with traffic engineering personnel at Caltrans, Orange County, and the majority of the 34 Orange County cities, wherein he is highly respected for his project management and consensus building skills. He will be available for "I wanted to personally thank ... AGA team for ' any agency meetings and presentations to explain and/or clarify any aspect of the project, whether or not such meetings and quickly lending us a hand in implementing the presentations have been specified in the Scope of Work. Mr. Sadam construction coordination timing ... intersections will be personally responsible for all project work efforts and are operating wonderfully. We really appreciate deliverables, with overall project oversight provided by Mr. Al Grover, the partnership and teamwork your firm AGA's Principal in Charge for this project, and quality control demonstrates." provided by Mr. Mark Miller. In short, Mr. Sadam, Mr. Grover, and Mr. City of Ontario Miller will do whatever is necessary to ensure the success of this project. REiATER EXPERIENCE Staff of AGA in general, and Mr. Sadam in particular, have been providing professional consulting traffic engineering services for both municipalities and private developers for over twenty years. Overall, staff of AGA have provided consulting services to ten California counties and more than 100 California cities during this time. AGA is especially qualified and experienced in the field of multijurisdictional traffic signal interconnect and timing synchronization and other ITS elements. AGA has been conducting multijurisdictional Our staff has completed timing plans for more than 6,500 traffic signals in ° signal coordination projects since 1993, well California alone. We have designed, analyzed and evaluated various before other Traffic Engineering firms even hardware and software components for the majority of the different traffic considered such projects. signal control and synchronization systems. We have experience with Model 170/2070 systems (BI Tran QuicNet), 2070 systems (BI Tran QuicNet and ACTRA/Tactics), Type 90 systems (Econolite, Siemens, Naztec, Multisonics and Traconex), Caltrans CTNET systems, and UTCS systems. We have designed and analyzed Time Base Coordination Systems and fiber optic, hardwire, microwave, spread spectrum, A It�ft'r•�ra[:e4 cellphone and telephone interconnect systems. We have coordinated City signals with Caltrans on -and off -ramp signals, and have for many years controlled a Type 90 (ACTRA) system for the City of La Habra, an ACTRA/Tactics system (previously a Multisonics VMS system like Costa Mesa's system) in Fullerton, and Model 170/2070 systems for the Cities of Montclair, Highland, Rialto, and Seal Beach, and Caltrans from our office in Fullerton. We previously completed a joint Santa Ana/Costa Mesa project that developed appropriate interties between the two cities' signal systems for various arterials. Additionally, as part of OCTA's TSS (previously designated as Bus Rapid Transit — BRT) Project, we were responsible for developing timing and converting from VMS Multisonics controllers to Econolite controllers, including utilization of fiberoptic communication and integration with the MIST central system for signals on Harbor Boulevard in Costa Mesa. Several of the most relevant similar turn -key projects conducted for OCTA by AGA are the previously noted Euclid Street Project, a project involving 62 intersections in six cities; the Chapman Avenue TLSP Project, which included 52 intersections for four agencies; and the Orangethorpe Avenue TLSP Project, which included 43 intersections for seven agencies and several additional corridor projects. All of these projects included coordination with Caltrans. These similar turn -key projects included hardware installation by the same AGA team members. Some of the turn -key components included controller upgrades, cabinet replacements, fiber switches, splice enclosures, pullboxes, CCTV, Control Center upgrades, conduit installation, signal hardware improvements, and the development of As -Built plans. AGA staff have also completed many other multijurisdictional signal timing projects for cities in Orange County, including the following: ♦ City of La Habra/City of Brea/Caltrans signal coordination timing project for 74 signalized intersections. ♦ City of Buena Park/Caltrans signal coordination timing project for 66 signalized intersections. ♦ City of Fountain Valley/Caltrans signal coordination timing project for 52 signalized intersections. ♦ City of Buena Park Citywide Intelligent Transportation System Project. ♦ City of Fullerton led Four Corridors Project including 75 signalized intersections. The most relevant recently completed projects were also OCTA sponsored projects. The Euclid Street Traffic Signal Synchronization Demonstration Project, OCTA's first multijurisdictional corridor interconnect and coordination project, basically set the stage for all of OCTA's subsequent Proposition 113 TLSP Projects, including the six corridor projects conducted by AGA. It should be noted that the Chapman Avenue TLSP Project and the Bastanchury Road RTSSP Project included the installation of the Centracs central signal control system at the City of Garden Grove and the City of Placentia respectively. As part of our current Antonio Parkway RTSSP Project we will also be installing Centracs for the County of Orange. All components of the proposed Sunflower corridor project were likewise included in those projects, including design, system integration/construction management, development/ implementation/fine-tuning of coordination timing plans, and providing ongoing system maintenance and operations. It should be noted that the same key AGA Project Team members identified in the following Section II of this proposal were instrumental in conducting all of the previously listed projects. Because our key senior staff have worked together for more than eighteen years, we bring a wealth of experience, expertise, familiarity and continuity to the project. We also have extensive experience working with various vendors and their products which will be utilized in this turn -key project, including Telvent (MIST central control system) and Econolite (ASC/3 controllers). Likewise, we have worked for many years with NDS, the traffic data collection firm; Crosstown, the equipment installation subcontractor; and CVI, the audio/video subcontractor.

Included are the names of contact persons and current telephone numbers. It is important to note that the most important aspect of all of the multijurisdictional projects conducted by AGA is the establishing of a consensus among all participating agencies. More often than not, hardware and software incompatibilities between adjoining jurisdictions are simply engineering problems requiring engineering solutions. Of more importance is the resolution of conflicting political concerns between adjoining jurisdictions. Our key strength is our ability to work with divergent personalities in different agencies to resolve these concerns, This has been an important factor in our successful multijurisdictional projects involving coordination between different vendor type systems and involving Caltrans. We strongly urge the City of Costa Mesa to contact the listed references regarding their experience with AGA. AGA's approach to interconnect and synchronization projects is that we do more than simply prepare interconnect and timing plans — we actually make the system work Fullerton Citywide Timing Plan Development and Implementation Initial project was for development, implementation and fine-tuning of multijurisdictional coordination timing plans for 120 intersections, including Caltrans ramps, for four separate time periods. Also included was development of a Local Timing Guidelines Manual.

The proposed Sunflower Avenue Corridor Project is another step in improving Citywide traffic operations. In general, this project will provide for various signal system and communication upgrades, and the development and continued operation of coordinated signal timing plans. The Sunflower Avenue Corridor, between Main Street on the east and Hyland Avenue on the west, includes traffic signals controlled by the Cities of Costa Mesa and Santa Ana. The Sunflower Avenue roadway varies from a four -lane section with a two-way left turn lane from Hyland Avenue to Bear Street, to a six -lane section from Bear Street to Main Street with typical speed limits of 40 mph. Daily traffic volumes range up to 26,000 vehicles per day (vpd). The RFP for the proposed project has a defined Scope of Work which identifies specific tasks to be conducted by the consultant. These tasks include overall project management; assessment of traffic signals and arterial network conditions; design and preparation of plans with appropriate specifications for the construction/installation of new and/or upgraded traffic signal control and communication hardware and software; construction and construction management; system integration; development, implementation, and fine-tuning of coordination timing plans; providing ongoing monitoring and maintenance of timing and communication for two years; and preparation of a final report discussing all components of the project. It is important to note that, pursuant to requirements presented in the RFP, this project will be conducted as a "Turn -Key" project, i.e., AGA will be completely responsible for all components of the project as identified above. The AGA Project Team members have discussed this Turn -Key project extensively and have agreed on the following project approach, which is based in general on the RFP; the Orange County Traffic Signal Coordination Program that AGA prepared for OCTA; the Citywide Traffic Signal System Master Plan for Costa Mesa; discussions with traffic engineering personnel of City of Costa Mesa; and our previous experience in designing, installing, operating and maintaining many multi -jurisdictional interconnected traffic signal systems. Specifics of our approach are based on our recent project experience developing, implementing, fine tuning and monitoring multi -jurisdictional coordination traffic signal timing plans on Harbor Boulevard, Adams Avenue, Fairview Road and Bristol Street, including the recent Baker St/Placentia Ave Corridor Project, which we conducted for the City; and on our specific knowledge of the signal system hardware and software particulars for the cities participating in the various projects that we have acquired via our previous citywide and/or multijurisdictional coordination timing projects. It is important to recognize that effective traffic signal synchronization consists of appropriate traffic signal infrastructure, optimum intersection capacity, coordinated signal timing, and the maintenance, upkeep and monitoring of this integrated system to ensure that the capacity gained with the initial inter -jurisdictional coordinated system is continued on a long-term basis. AGA proposes to apply this effective approach to traffic signal synchronization while conducting the three corridor projects in order to ensure ongoing benefits for motorists in the Costa Mesa region. Key strategies available with AGA to create effective traffic signal synchronization include: ♦ The use of a common time source to throughout the project corridor for accurate time of day. ♦ The use of a common signal system background cycle length when developing optimized coordination traffic signal timings throughout the corridor. ♦ The development, implementation, and fine-tuning of optimized signal timing parameters based on prevailing traffic patterns. ♦ Recognizing the multi -agency common goal of increasing arterial thru-put capacity with reduced stops and delays. ♦ Achieving improvements in arterial traffic carrying capacities, such as those achieved via traffic signal modifications or minor roadway striping changes. ♦ Obtaining cooperation and support from City staff. ♦ The use of upgraded signal controllers/assemblies and software and integration with the respective agency central systems to improve efficiencies; ♦ Providing CCTV traffic surveillance cameras at selection locations. ♦ Upgrading traffic signal and signal communications (fiber optic, wireless etc.,) along the project route; ♦ Providing additional fine-tuning and monitoring of signal timings to ensure arterial capacity gains with traffic signal synchronization are sustained on a long-term basis. ■ p a.o c 111-1 2 ,1+unflower Avenue Cmi;f i Understanding/Approach/Schedule The provision of upgraded controllers and communication systems, and integration with the central systems, are very essential for implementation and achievement of A('=A's results -oriented leadership is optimized coordination signal timings on the corridor, as well as providing the key to our management approach and ability to monitor and fine tune timings on an on-going basis. A key component of our proven record of project success. AGA's services is to ensure that all of these components are implemented and - - - function as designed in order to maintain the resulting significant benefits. The project, in general, consists of providing communication and signal timing/coordination improvements along the Sunflower corridor, As noted, the project will be conducted as a "Turn -Key" project, i,e., all equipment design/purchase/ installation/construction/operation will be provided by the AGA Team, including coordination timing plan development, implementation, fine-tuning and assessment. All cost allocations will be the direct responsibility of the Turn -Key Manager (AGA). AGA staff experience in integrating the central system hardware (computer servers, workstations, Ethernet switches, modems, port servers, GPS servers) with field elements including interfacing with traffic signal system vendors, communication systems specialists and respective agency Information Technology staff will be key to project success. Additionally, due to our on-going signal system monitoring projects with various agencies, AGA is fully knowledgeable of each of the systems' complexities and key interrelationships of hardware, software, and people. The following is our detailed Scope of Work for this project. Project Management Mr. Chalap Sadam, P.E., T.E., will be AGA's Project Manager for this Project. He will be responsible for adherence to the project schedule and, along with Mr. Mark Miller, for maintaining quality control of all project work products, project budget control and invoicing, tracking of project schedule, regular project updates and progress reports, agency comment dispositions and document control and filing, It is anticipated that all components required to achieve an operating system, including City review times, can be completed within one year of receipt of notice to proceed, with the two year monitoring and maintenance period to follow. The Final Report will be prepared as required. Our preliminary project schedule is included as Figure 2. This schedule is based on an assumed Notice to Proceed date of April 7, 2015. Upon receipt of the actual Notice to Proceed, and prior to the project Kick -Off Meeting, AGA will prepare a more detailed project schedule that includes actual start dates, activity durations, product submittal dates, etc., including agency review times, Task Dewriplion 2018 6/1 7/1 9/1 6/1 10/1 11/1 12/1 1/1 2/1 3/1 20116 4/1 6/1 fill 7/1 6/1 6/1 40/1 t.eond Proied Management Kick -Off Meeting _ Progress MaefingsiReports Task Data Colecton IIIIIIIIII� Summary RepeA I)♦ _ Field Review t ncy 'fie Review Plan Preparation Agency Review Plan Finalization i Meetings Equpnenl ConslrucfionAnstalalord System Integration A 'Before and AW Study Celiveraole Signal Timing Development linplern6nlalaruFinerTuning L Y System Maintenance & Operation � Future Tasks Final ReparVAs-Bulk .

Mr. Sadam's extensive experience in conducting forums and in dealing with traffic engineering problems and political concerns, as viewed from both a consultant's and a city's perspective, will be invaluable in providing guidance for this project. Additionally, our involvement in signal coordination projects for La Habra, Fullerton, Buena Park, Huntington Beach, Fountain Valley, and most importantly, Costa Mesa provides us a good background for understanding agencies' concerns. AGA will conduct a project kick-off meeting with all participating agencies to discuss project objectives, scope of work, project schedule, required cooperative agreements, and various budget factors. As this meeting sets the stage for the entire project, our Project Manager (Chalap Sadam), Design/Construction Task Manager (Ignacio Sanchez), and Timing Plan Task Manager (Greg Wong) will all attend the meeting. In addition to the Kick -Off Meeting, regular bi-weekly meetings will be held with Costa Mesa staff during the design and construction phases of the project, and quarterly meetings held during the monitoring and maintenance phase of the project. Deliverables will include updated project schedule, presentations and meeting attendance, supporting meeting/presentation materials, agendas and minutes, and bi-weekly project reports. Project Approach In order to "hit the ground running" on this project, our Team has met with City staff, conducted a detailed field review of potential fiberoptic cable/conduit routing paths, and examined the existing TMC. Detailed below are our initial thoughts regarding two key components of the project: the potential fiberoptic routing path along Sunflower Avenue and possible alternate fiber routing to tie in to the fiber optic trunk line, and the design of the new TMC at City Hall. AGA has identified an alternate route for the fiber optic cable installation at the west end of the project to tie in to the existing fiber optic cable trunk line on Harbor Boulevard. Based on our preliminary field review and our previous project experience in the City of Costa Mesa, the existing fiber optic trunk line currently ends at the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and South Coast Drive. Utilizing the existing conduit on Susan Street between Sunflower Avenue and South Coast Drive and installing new conduit on South Coast Drive between Susan Street and Harbor Boulevard and leveraging available conduit on portions of this section would allow the City to tie in to the existing fiber optic trunk line and complete the northern ring as laid out on the City's Master Plan. It would also avoid delays due to the coordination required with the railroad company if the new conduit were to be installed on Sunflower Avenue between Susan Street and Harbor Boulevard where a railroad crossing exists. One additional item of importance relates to the relocation/construction of the new Traffic Management Center at City Hall, Our Team has developed several initial concepts for the layout of the new TMC at City Hall. A floor plan of the existing room where the TMC will be installed and the conceptual layouts of the TMC are shown below. Additional conceptual renderings can be found in Appendix B. a., Traffic Management Center Option 1 tiunllower Avenue Corridor P� Understanding/Approach/Schedule �� 1 Traffic Management Center Traffic Management Center Option 2 Option 3 TMC 1 Description: In the first layout there will be two 55" LED Flat Panels mounted on a new wall to be constructed along with a new 70"+ LED Flat Panel mounted on the existing north wall. The Operators Console, facing west towards the two 55" LED Flat Panels, will be for two people. Each Operator will have a PC with Dual DVI Graphics Outputs. We will place a DVI distribution amplifier on each output allowing for feeds to both the Operators local monitor and the 8X4 DVI matrix switch. If desired the City can provide a Cable box for television input to the AV switch. We will program a Crestron Controller to provide the Switching, Monitor On/Off and Cable TV transport controls. All control pages will be HTML based. The Operator will open an Internet Explorer window and click on the Crestron Control link in the favorites. This will serve up the control pages to the Operator's PC. The TMC will be enclosed via the installation of glass partitions/walls to allow for viewing of the TMC from the outside. TMC 2 Description: In the second layout there will be one 90" LED Flat Panel mounted on a new wall to be constructed along with two 70" LED Flat Panels mounted on the existing north wall. Similar to the first layout, the Operators Console, facing west towards the 90" LED Flat Panel, will be for two people and will include the equipment as detailed above. TMC 3 Description: In the third layout there will be two 70" LED Flat Panels mounted on the existing north wall to the left of the existing column. An additional 90" LED Flat Panel will be mounted on the north wall to the right of the existing column. The Operators Console, facing north towards the two 70" LED Flat Panels, will be for two people and will include the equipment as detailed above. Additional layouts, including the reuse of existing TMC with minor modifications will be prepared in consultation with the City. In recommending a particular TMC option, the AGA team will also consider the lighting levels, heat generation and dissipation, requirement and availability of HVAC and duct work, and server noise levels including potential relocation of server hardware to a separate location, Additionally, in lieu of TMC improvements, AGA will also present alternatives for potential upgrade of the central signal system to Econolite Centracs system. AGA previously assisted the City of Placentia and the County of Orange in upgrading to Centracs system by combining resources from various projects. Data Collection It is important to obtain all appropriate data elements that are required for the design of various signal system and interconnect communication improvements and the development of optimal coordinated signal timing. Such items include as -built roadway, signal, and communication plans; aerial photos; signal timings and agency preferences; data to better understand prevailing traffic conditions; traffic patterns and peaking characteristics; usage and magnitude of vehicular traffic as well as pedestrians and bicycles; school area traffic; high intensity retail traffic; and any unusual traffic patterns that may be governed by special uses such as with area churches or major parks on the weekends. The following data will be collected: ♦ Existing signal timing sheets and existing coordination timing plans for the project corridor as well as any crossing arterials; as -built roadway, communication and signal plans; aerial photos, maps and collision diagrams; speed data; and any available traffic counts. Aqzmt Sunllower AVenu Understanding/Approach/Schedule ♦ Agency preferences related to signal timing – lead/lag phasing, minimum left -turn splits, cycle lengths, use of preferred or conditional service, coordination time periods, full actuated vs. semi -actuated coordination, use of pedestrian override, weekend coordination, and local timing parameters (Walk, pedestrian clearance, yellow, all red, gap and extension timing). ♦ Average Daily Traffic 24-hour counts at various critical locations along the corridor, because traffic patterns will not be constant and may change at major cross streets. Additionally, graphs will be developed that show hourly traffic volume variations for weekday and weekends, and by location. A sample hourly traffic volume variation chart is shown on the following page. 1200 ♦ Available daily traffic counts from the City for all major crossing arterials 1000 0 N that have a bearing on corridor traffic flow patterns. —�–U ♦ Information on any construction activities on the corridor and other x800 E - rin• streets in the immediate vicinity. .600 .;.-;. •-;.; •;. _ E . ♦ Two-hour peak period turning movement counts for the weekday (AM, >0 400 •;--;-;•.;.¢•; .s..' -< i,4 i•, 4.. midday and PM) and weekend (midday) at key project intersections. = X200 • .;..y.t..i•e r v-i..y.i..;.�.;..y.i,.i.i..;.. Additional traffic counts will be collected at school areas where the _ school closing times may not coincide with typical peaks. In addition, 0 , ,bay $ o, N ^ traffic counts will also be collected at major shopping areas particularly 4 N'u,JBeginning South Coast Plaza, and in the vicinity of other special traffic generators. Additionally, the number of pedestrian and bicycle users, as well as the number of pedestrian actuations occurring by crosswalk, will also be collected. AGA's experienced signal timing engineers will evaluate the above data elements and provide an assessment of prevailing traffic patterns and conditions on the project corridor. Deliverables will consist of a report summarizing all data collected, including turning movement counts, 24-hour traffic volumes, and drawings of intersection lane geometric features. Field Review In the development of signal system/ interconnect communication improvement plans and coordination signal timing plans, it is imperative to have appropriate intersection geometries, signal phasing, arterial link speeds, an understanding of existing traffic signal system and communication equipment and its capabilities, knowledge of closely spaced intersections and its impact, location of major traffic generators, an assessment of existing traffic conditions and any deficiencies at any of the project intersections and along the project corridor. For this project, the field data inventory will be directly overseen by AGA's Project Manager so that the prevailing conditions in the project area are better understood. The AGA Team will collect field data in sufficient quantity to identify existing deficiencies, existing system capabilities and operations. Using data collected as a starting point (including as -built plans and aerial photos), and with input from the cities and Caltrans, the AGA Team will conduct extensive field reviews throughout the project corridor to identify and assess all components that affect signal coordination, including; ♦ Intersection lane geometries, including number, usage of each lane; length of left/right turning lanes; distance between signalized intersections; and corridor lane configurations and lane widths, as appropriate. ♦ Existing signal operation characteristics – signal phasing, cycle lengths, protected/permissive left -turn operation (including first car detection vs. queue detection), lead -lag phasing, right -tum overlap phasing and U-turn restrictions. ♦ Traffic signal controller and cabinet type, make, brand, software & version; interconnect equipment, telemetry, modems and switches; maintenance condition of traffic signal equipment including controllers; time referencing setup and daily time clock drift. ♦ Digital photos of equipment inside traffic signal cabinet and identification of any deficiencies. ♦ Special characteristics such as proximity to adjacent intersections and any senior centers; presence and location of bus stops (near -side vs. far -side); location of driveways; on -street parking, parking maneuvers, and parking restrictions; adequacy of left -turn and right -turn storage; intersections with high volumes of pedestrians and bicyclists; areas with high volumes of trucks and buses; high volume un -signalized intersections; and impact of freeway access points on the project corridor and in the immediate vicinity on cross streets. A - �- — l'.i& Ill- 3 r – tiimflower Aven[U- Understanding/Approach/S ¢;la edule ♦ Over -saturated intersections and measures to improve operations; uneven lane distribution, including impact to saturation flow rate due to a lane drop within a few hundred feet of the intersection; unbalanced traffic distribution of a dual left -turn lane resulting in lower saturation flows; and observations for queuing and queue spillovers, including potential lane blockages. ♦ Traffic signal detection, both stop bar detectors and advance detectors, their timings and maintenance status; pedestrian push buttons and condition; sensitivity and settings of video detection, particularly for false calls or even dropped calls; and any unusual recall phases and reasons thereof. ♦ For intersections that may require minor intersection geometric changes or signal modifications, AGA will conduct a detailed Highway Capacity Manual based capacity, timing and queuing analysis to determine appropriate improvements. Improvement Plans Preparation Based on data collected and the Field Review conducted, AGA will develop plans, specifications, and cost allocations as required for our Turn -Key Team's installation of new and/or upgraded traffic signal control and communication equipment and various other ITS elements as specifically detailed in the RFP for this project. In addition to preparing the Design Report for the proposed system improvements for the Sunflower Avenue Corridor, we will also update the previous AGA developed "City of Costa Mesa Traffic Signal System Master Plan". The Master Plan update will allow the City for better planning and integration of various corridor project components at the TMC. Figure 3 graphically displays the project corridor and the locations of the City's fiberoptic core rings, key components of the overall traffic signal control and communication infrastructure. Plans for improvements will be prepared by AGA in accordance with City requirements. The development process for the Turn -Key plans, which in essence will resemble typical plans will include utility company reviews and be prepared on 24"06" mylar sheets, signed and sealed by Mr. Chalap Sadam, a California licensed Civil Engineer, Detail drawings will be at a V = 20' scale. All plans will be prepared and submitted in AutoCAD format. Because of the Turn -Key nature of major components of the project, formal cost estimations will not be provided but, rather, costing will be included in a spreadsheet format detailing the total project costs of all engineering, hardware, software and installation. Deliverables will include preliminary and final construction plans with appropriate specifications and cost allocations. For the 3" conduit installation component of the project, detailed plans and specifications along with bid documents will be prepared per City Requirements. Additionally, the AGA Team will answer any questions during the bidding process, assist the City in evaluating the bids received, and address any RFI's during construction. Equipment Construction/Installation/System Integration Based on the approved plans, the AGA Team will construct/install all new signal controllers, other signal improvements, communication equipment, CCTV cameras and all other ITS components along the corridor. While the City will provide actual inspection services for all work done, AGA will provide overall system integration and construction support services. Additionally, for the newly interconnected traffic signals, AGA will assist in Internet Protocol (I/P) communications scheme and addressing for Ethernet communication systems. Deliverables will include new equipment and system integration and construction support services. Additionally, as discussed under Project Approach, various conceptual plans and detailed plans will be developed for the Traffic Management Center. :%eftare ;&mo After" Staidly The AGA Team will conduct a "before and after" travel time and delay field study for the each corridor for each peak period for which coordinated timing plans are developed. Measures of Effectiveness (MOE) parameters, which will provide a quantitative basis for determining coordination benefits, will include stops, delays, travel times, reds versus greens, average speeds, fuel consumption, and emissions. MOE's will be compiled using Synchro and TruTraffic software and field measurements using the floating -car technique. According to the floating -car technique, the driver floats with the traffic by passing only as many vehicles as pass the test car. A minimum of three floating car runs will be conducted for each direction for each coordination time period. As shown on the Project Schedule (Figure 2), "before" studies are planned to be conducted prior to the completion of construction of various signal system and interconnect communication improvements, and "after" studies conducted after construction, system integration, and new timing plan implementation are completed. Deliverables will include a Memorandum with the results of the "before" and "after" studies. %_oc1JkrE � x/ss- �.

Core Ring B (ARamate Route) ® Existing Hub Fiber Optic Core Rings Figure 3 Understanding/Approach/StAiedule Signal Timing Development AGA's approach to several key components of the signal timing plan development process is detailed in the following sections. Arterial Link Speeds and Saturation Flow Rate Measurements: AGA proposes to field measure link speeds for signal coordination using the floating car technique. This field measurement is crucial for determining proper and effective coordination between signals. Additionally, AGA proposes to field measure saturation flow rates at several critical locations along the project arterial. These measured values are then used to determine accurate capacity values, which is key to developing efficient signal progression. Signal Timing Software: Various signal timing analysis and simulation software programs - Synchro, SimTraffic, Webster and TruTraffic programs will be used for this project. AGA proposes to utilize Synchro in addition to other signal timing optimization programs in an interactive manner. The TruTraffic program, a leading industry tool, will be used to prepare time -space diagrams. SimTraffic, a traffic simulation software, will be used at specific locations such as closely spaced intersections with blocking problems or lane change problems, or at congested intersections with large turning movement volumes. Micro simulation analysis programs allow for evaluation of capacity starvation or queue spill-over impacts, evaluation of unusually high turning movement volumes, use of lead -lag left tum phasing, etc. Cycle Length and Timing Analysis: Before developing any timing plans for project intersections, AGA will analyze the complete network to determine system cycle length requirements and subsystem requirements. Every attempt will be made to minimize the number of subsystems required throughout the project area to maximize the benefits of coordination (reduced delay, stops, fuel usage, mobile source emissions, etc.). AGA will also consider existing coordination on many of the crossing AGA's experience and expertise in arterials with the objective of improving overall arterial network operations. The system 'integrating synchronization of project cycle length determination is extremely critical, as the cycle length must be minimal to routes with crossing arterials has achieve maximum benefits. AGA will identify critical intersections area -wide, and proven critical to success to previous perform detailed capacity/delay analyses using sophisticated delay optimization routines to help establish system/subsystem cycle lengths. When system cycle lengths are corridor projects. _ arbitrarily selected rather than minimized and optimized, complaints often arise from local side street traffic because of their increased waiting time. Various signal timing programs will be used to help calculate the signal timing information including cycle lengths, splits, phase sequences and offsets for signalized intersections along each corridor to maximize arterial progression and to reduce delay. The different traffic flow conditions will be analyzed and timing plans will be developed accordingly. The optimization will include the analysis of progression based on optimum phase sequences (leading lefts, lead/lag, etc.) to provide the best arterial progression. The results of the progression analysis will be shown on time -space diagrams. The timing analysis will evaluate queue lengths, stops and delays resulting from the impacts/benefits of coordination. The existing cycle length systems in the project area range from 110 seconds to 130 seconds. It is important to recognize that while many of the project intersections near the crossing arterials (Harbor Boulevard, Fairview Road, Bristol Street) are fairly large with multiple lanes, many of which are currently coordinated at higher cycle lengths, certain intersections on Sunflower Avenue could operate at lower cycles, particularly during the off-peak hours. For early morning or late evening time periods, it may be appropriate to coordinate traffic signals at a much shorter cycle or use full -actuated coordination, in order to minimize delays to side -streets. Recognizing the changing traffic patterns on Sunflower Avenue at its termination at Main Street including the use of split phase operation at this intersection, a moderate to heavy pedestrian usage on Sunflower Avenue at Stevens/Park Center intersection including direct access to large parking areas here and at Sunflower Avenue/Avenue of the Arts intersection will all be critical when developing appropriate signal coordination timing plans. Understanding the traffic patterns, the intersection capacities, natural barriers, and what is optimum given the characteristics of a certain time period, are all important when evaluating if local, arterial or system -wide optimization is desired. Serving the needs of pedestrians is a significant component of timing analysis. Knowing the number of pedestrians helps in defining if appropriate Walk time is being provided, such as in school and downtown areas; knowing how many pedestrian actuations are occurring in a time period will help define if the pedestrian override feature may be deployed to help maximize arterial progression. Proper allocation of left -turn splits is important to avoid excessive queues that may block thru traffic. The potential use of protected/permissive left turn (PPLT) phasing can also effectively improve traffic operations at selected project intersections. After careful review of traffic patterns, elimination of Understanding/Appr4mvh/Schedule minor deficiencies and assessment of available capacities, AGA will conduct an arterial bandwidth requirement analysis before time - space diagrams are generated so that the timing plans can accommodate the prevailing traffic volumes for each time period. Lead/Lag Phasing: Another factor that will influence the development of coordination timing plans for the project arterials involves lead/lag phasing at protected left tum locations. AGA will investigate the potential use of such phasing. Primarily, it provides for wider bands and allows for progression with both thru and left tum movements. Without lead/lag phasing, left turns are typically NOT coordinated and queues will be longer, so lead/lag phasing can help when pockets are short, The use of time -space diagrams help indicate when lead/lag phasing may be appropriate. AGA's experienced staff will carefully review the actual need for lead/lag phasing at minor intersections and will minimize its usage for better efficiency of actuated operation. We will also carefully analyze queuing, especially for left turn pockets to ensure that left turn demand does not overflow and block thru traffic, thereby disrupting traffic progression. Adequate time will be provided to the left -turns both to avoid queue spill-over and minimize resident complaints. Local Factors: Knowledge of key local factors, such as the location, operating hours and peak flow conditions related to periods of high commute traffic; South Coast Plaza, Segerstrom Center for the Arts, etc., are all very important in preparing timing plans. AGA's knowledge of such local factors, combined with input from the City, will greatly enhance our ability to develop the most appropriate timing plans. Additionally, attention must be given to any crossing that may be interconnected and coordinated when establishing logical break points, if such break points are required. Consideration will also be given to local streets when developing the cycle lengths, to avoid unnecessary delays to local residents and pedestrians. The side street delays will be kept to a minimum by the usage of double cycle or half cycle where feasible. AGA will also determine if minor modifications to existing signal operations and striping layouts would improve the level of service at project intersections. Such modifications could include converting split -phase operation to standard leading left turn operation, adding a right turn lane at selected intersections, etc. Timing Plan Deliverables: The RFP requires that coordinated timing plans be developed for the AM, midday and PM weekday traffic conditions, nighttime conditions, and typical weekend midday conditions. The weekend timing plans are especially important in shopping areas and near high -use recreational areas. An additional service being proposed by AGA is the development of holiday shopping plans for roadways in the vicinity of major shopping areas (South Coast Plaza, Metro Pointe, etc). These specialized plans will consider the impact of substantially increased traffic to/from these areas at selected times of the year. Historically, one timing plan was typically used for each time period, say one AM plan for 6:30am to 9:OOam on a weekday; however, traffic may not be constant throughout this period, but may peak for an hour. Arterial speeds also concurrently vary with the traffic volumes. Because coordination offset is a function of arterial travel speeds, one timing plan with a set speed will not be adequate. The changing speeds, within a time period, warrant different offsets so that a platoon of vehicles can progress without interruption. AGA recognizes this and will provide several additional timing plans over and above those required in the RFP so as to move the traffic as efficiently as possible along each corridor throughout the day, and not be constrained with a limited number of plans that are tailored only for certain traffic conditions, Time -of -day schedules (the appropriate start time for each plan) will be developed based on field observations, 24 hour traffic counts and input from City staff. After initial development of all signal timing plans, they will be submitted to the City for review. Plans will be revised as required, and any necessary new controller timing sheets will be developed. These revisions are typically minimized because AGA will already have reviewed and manually optimized all timing plans. Time -space diagrams will be prepared for all timing plans, to aid in the review process and to graphically document the finalized timing parameters. tntiplementatiorn avid Fine Tuning of Tioning Plans One area where experience with various controllers and central system software is very important is during the implementation of coordination timings. Certain systems, such as the Type 90 (Multisonics VMS System, Econolite, etc.) require phase splits in percent of cycle or in seconds. Eagle SEPAC controllers require coordination timing splits in seconds, Model 170/2070 controllers with BiTrans McCain program require force -offs. The new Caltrans Traffic Signal Control Program (TSCP) for Model 2070 controllers allows the use of green factors or phase force -offs for implementing coordination timing. Similarly, the coordination offsets are referenced differently on various systems, such as at the beginning or end of coordination phase green, and refer to either ring 1 phases or ring 2 phases. II_X ;�IIMIII TE_9 r T- - N :i ::: Understanding/Approach/Schedule Other system and/or controller intricacies, such as the mechanism to accomplish lead/lag phasing, proper phase permissive times, yield points, etc., are all important for successful signal coordination implementation. Based on our extensive experience with various systems, AGA will develop customized coordination timing sheets that are controller specific. These customized sheets will eliminate the implementation errors that are typical when software program output is implemented directly on different signal systems, Given the difference in hardware and software systems used by various agencies, development of controller specific timing AGA's hands-on experience with sheets is critical. AGA will implement timing plans at all controllers. Each timing plan will a wide variety of controller types identify cycle lengths, splits and offsets for all signals along each corridor, and will and central system software greatly identify start times and end times of each timing plan, facilitates our implementation of The new timing will be observed in the field, and will be tested for a minimum of two weeks. timing plans. Working in conjunction with City staff, adjustments to the timing will be made as necessary and revised timing plan data files will be prepared. After final timing plans are approved by the City, final Time -Space Diagrams will be prepared and provided for each time of day timing plan. All Synchro data files and other electronic files, including a memorandum documenting the signal timing optimization and implementation, will be provided. System fine tuning is generally defined as ensuring that the entire system is functioning as a whole, that is, as an inter -jurisdictional multi - agency coordinated system. Our proposed fine tuning of project signals includes the following components: (a) Review of system functions, (b) Driving of the system signals to visually review the coordination effectiveness, (c) Communicating with responsible maintenance technicians, and (d) Minor modifications of splits and offsets to respond to traffic fluctuations. Deliverables will include optimized and synchronized traffic signal timing plans and field implementation of optimized traffic signal plans including all required fine-tuning. System Maintenance and Operation System maintenance and operations is generally defined as ensuring that the entire system is functioning as a whole, that is, as an interjurisdictional multi -agency coordinated system, Communication between a central system and signals will be monitored along the corridor to ensure necessary conditions for signal synchronization. A variety of methods will be used to monitor, maintain, and repair both communications and detections along the project corridor. The upkeep of communication systems and detection systems will be completed working in conjunction with the respective agency signal maintenance staff. A number of techniques will be used including regular drives along the corridor, analysis of central system report output, and discussions with respective agency staff. AGA will support City staff in the operation of the system, and will provide continuous monitoring/optimizing of system timing of all project intersections for two years following implementation of signal timing plans to further fine tune the system and modify the plans as needed. This will consist of monitoring of the systems from our offices (via telephone modems or VPN) combined with extensive field reviews. This three year operational period will not officially start until coordination timing plans have been implemented. Deliverables will include revised signal timing plans and a memorandum documenting the changes. Project Reporl/As Built Plans AGA will prepare a Final Timings and Evaluation Technical Report with an executive summary. The final report will provide a complete documentation of the project, including project objectives, scope and location, findings and recommendations, implementation schedule, improvements accomplished, and procedures for continuing maintenance, surveillance, and evaluation of the coordinated signal system. In addition, the report will include a summary of work performed, data collected, "before" and "after" studies and project benefits achieved in terms of fuel savings, travel time reduction, emissions reduced including Green House Gas (GHG) and other measurable parameters. Project results will also be summarized in the OCTA required Corridor Synchronization Performance Index (CSPI), The report will also include for each project intersection the lane configurations, signal phasing, turning movement data, and cycle lengths for existing and proposed timing for all peak periods. In addition, in a separate binder, all the traffic signal phase sequences, signal timing plans, time -space diagrams, and pedestrian timings will be documented. As -Built plans for all constructed improvements will also be prepared and provided to the appropriate agency. Deliverables include a Traffic Signal Synchronization Final Report and as -built plans for all constructed improvements, � � L EXHIBIT C FEE SCHEDULE ul� IF FEE PROPOSAI A6r 11'f PROFFSSIONAL CONSULTANTMI 111 l I�. j#+ i 1 1 1 1 II IaM i ! hCa'�j0CRlttffl a'+`"a _ 1 � `Ff.T Te, 55 ALBERT ROVER & "ASSOCIATES April 20, 2015 Mr. Pritam Deshmukh Associate Civil Engineer Transportation Services Division Fourth Floor City Hall 77 Fair Drive Costa Mesa, California 92628 RE: Sunflower Avenue Traffic Signal Coordination Project Fee Proposal Dear Mr. Deshmukh: Albert Grover & Associates (AGA) is pleased to respond to the City of Costa Mesa's Request for Proposal (RFP) dated January 5, 2015 to provide professional Turn -Key services for design, equipment purchase and installation, construction management, system integration, and ongoing monitoring/maintenance to improve coordination signal timing on approximately 3.3 miles of Sunflower Avenue encompassing 14 traffic signals controlled by the City of Costa Mesa.
