Sherman, CPRP i~'~y of ~/~[---~ ,2003 Exhibit A Consultant shall, as requested, conduct a Traffic Study to establish both quantitatively and qualitatively the effect of removing the southbound left-turn lane along U.S. I (Biscayne Boulevard) at N.E. 187m Street and the westbound left and fight turn movements from N.E. 187m to Biscayne Boulevard and restoring a median on Biscayne Boulevard at this intersection within municipal limits of the City of Aventura. The effect of this lane removal will be examined throughout a study area bounded generally by NE 191 Street to the north, NE 29 Ave to the east, N.E. 186 Street to the south, and the FEC raikoad to the west. Consultant shall collect 24-hour traffic volume data and peak hour turning movements sufficient for the identification of capacity and/or operational changes resulting from the proposed roadway modification. Together with our subconsultant, Tinter Associates, Inc. we shall complete the following tasks: Data Collection · Perform field reviews as necessary noting operational characteristics of adjacent roadway facilities, traffic signal locations and timing patterns. · Obtain coordinated signal timing and phasing patterns from Miami-Dade County for pertinent signalized intersections within the study area. · Collect 24-hour traffic volume data and peak hour turning movement count data within the study area, as needed. Pre-implementation Study · Complete a Pre-implementation Study to determine the potential impact of the lane closure on roadways within and irmnediately adjacent to the study area. · Using the data collected establish existing Levels of Service (LOS) on affected roadways and at affected intersections within the study area using appropriate engineering software (Highway Capacity Sofh~are, SIGNAL2000, etc.). · Redixeet those vehicles observed during the data collection phase to complete the southbound left mm from U.S. 1 (Biscayne Boulevard) onto N.E. 187a Street and/or the westbound left turn movement from NE 187th onto Biscayne Boulevard to adjacent roadways and intersections. · Provide a schematic diagram for daily conditions and both A.M. and P.M. peak hours showing existing and redistributed traffic. · Using appropfiate engineering suffware, establish expected Levels of Service on affected roadways and at affected intersections within the study area with the subject lane removed and the traffic redistributed. · Provide a queuing analysis and storage requirement analysis at pertinent signalized intersections. · Provide phasing modification requirements at pertinent si~al~zed intersections as needed. · Evaluate impacts of the proposed traffic flow modification on emergency vehicle response times and fire hydrant accessibility, as well as, other services such as mail delivery, school bus routing, transit service, trash pick-up, etc. · Compile the data collected and the analysis conducted in addition to the conclusions drawn into a report suitable for City review and imtial discussion with Miami-Dade County and the Florida Department of Transportation. Review Coordination · Co,ordinate review with appropriate municipal departments as well as pertinent County and State (FDOT) agencies. Design of Temporary Lane Clo~ure · Prepare design survey and design drawings for a Temporary Lane Closure. Consultant shall prepare permit application and submit to FDOT for a Special Permit to construct the Temporary Lane Closure and shall coordinate with City staff on construction. Post-implementation Study · Once the subject lane has been closed temporarily for a period o£ 30 days, all roadways and intersections within the study area will be re-examined to establish the effect of closing the lane temporarily. · Consultant shall coordinate with FDOT on approval of the permanent, proposed lane closures. Design services for the permanent lane closures are not inclUded in the scope of services for this Work Authorization.
