East Montpelier Village Safety Improvement Project Statement of Qualifications

Understanding of the Project The Town of East Montpelier has been awarded funding through the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans), Local Transportation Facilities (LTF) Program to continue their planning and design efforts to complete a multi-use corridor through East Montpelier Village. Based on that award, the Town has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for design engineering services. The successful consultant must have a strong background in designing, engineering and permitting of transportation/multi-use paths within the LTF process. The VTrans funding comes with the requirement that the project be designed in compliance with the current edition of the LTF Guidebook and with the 2011 VTrans Standard Specifications for Construction. In addition, the project must comply with the VTrans CADD Manual / Microstation format, the Consultant Contract Provisions dated October, 1998, the VTrans Local Transportation Facilities Guidebook and its associated Project Development Process, the VTrans Construction Manual, the VTrans Route Survey Manual, the VTrans Approved Products List, the VTrans Supplemental Specifications, and the VTrans General Special Provisions for all Projects.

The purpose of this project is to create pedestrian and bicycle facilities along the portion of Route 2/Route 14 in East Montpelier from where Route 14 approaches from Barre to where it departs toward Hardwick. The project is envisioned to install granite curbs and a sidewalk along the westerly side of the project corridor from the west end of a proposed new crosswalk opposite the incoming leg of Route 14, north to the end of the existing sidewalk which was constructed when the intersection of the departing leg of Route 14 and Route 2 was constructed. This portion would include a new crosswalk across Quaker Road.

Knowledge of the Project Area This project falls on the primary east/west route between the northwestern corner of Vermont and northern New Hampshire and Maine. During his college years, Doug lived in St. Johnsbury and attended the University of Vermont. He travelled this corridor many times on his travels back and forth to school. He now has a close friend who used to live in Hinesburg, but has since moved to Barnet to a house on Harvey’s Lake, creating many ongoing opportunities to continue travelling the route. No trip through

East Montpelier with children is complete without a stop at Dudley’s for a bag of candy and a juice.

Recent travels through the project area reveal the following. The recently completed project for the northern Route 2/14 intersection has created a nice park-like setting near the East Village Meeting house with concrete sidewalks around it. This area will likely be a destination for users of this project and will be well served by the proposed crosswalk over Quaker Road. The curbed island just southwest of Quaker Road lends itself to widening away from the road with the new sidewalk being in the middle of it. The new pedestrian sign across from the Post Office is already helping to warn motorists that the area is frequented by pedestrian traffic and crossings.

The placement of the pedestrian pushbutton on the easterly side of the new northern Route 2/14 intersection may require that it be relocated for this project as it appears to be right at the corner of the sidewalk, thereby not allowing for the extension of that sidewalk south towards Jockey Hollow Auto Repair.

There appear to be approximately 19 separate properties along the route, most of which will be impacted in some manner. The majority of the project is fairly flat, although at each end Route 2 drops gradually. We will work with the Town and VTrans to determine how the drainage should work through this area, especially with the introduction of the new curbing. We will also work closely with Green Mountain Power to determine the best alternatives for pole and guy wire relocations that may be required. While there do not appear to be any poles along the west side of the project, the poles along the east side are quite close to the pavement, and some may need to be relocated to accommodate new sidewalk at the north end as well as the increased pavement width for the bike lanes.

East Montpelier Village Safety Improvement Project Statement of Qualifications participation processes, such as public forums and workshops, informal working sessions, newsletters, and other public outreach strategies. In our effort to provide excellent service to our clients, we are committed to meeting deadlines in the project schedule once they are set and agreed upon by the team. Our team is available to begin working with the Town of East Montpelier and VTrans as soon as the Town is ready to award this contract. We have the resources to perform the work and will be able to assign professionals identified in this Statement of Qualifications as needed to complete this project as described in the Town’s RFQ and outlined further in our Project Approach. The Team’s staff is diverse and large enough to allow for coverage of assignments if some members are unavailable.

As a result of working on so many LTF projects, we are very familiar with the state and federal requirements and regulations that will pertain to the planning, design and engineering, right-of-way and permitting of bicycle and pedestrian facilities for villages, towns and schools. Through this experience, we have also become intimately familiar with pedestrian facility planning and designs on State and town owned roadways and we will bring this knowledge and expertise to this project.

L&D has provided transportation planning and engineering, landscape architecture, right-of-way surveying and civil engineering services to communities, regional planning commissions and State agencies in Vermont and New York since 1985. Over the past twenty-eight years, our firm has focused on alternative transportation, which has ranged from Conceptual Alignment Studies to the preparation of design plans, contract drawings and construction oversight for bicycle and pedestrian facilities. Our firm has worked on over 40 bicycle and pedestrian projects in Vermont through VTrans Safe Routes to School, Transportation Enhancements and Bicycle and Pedestrian programs. We are committed to providing a unified approach to transportation and land use planning that considers the needs of pedestrians and bicyclists to be as important as vehicular requirements in an effort to create livable communities.

Through our extensive work throughout Vermont, we are very familiar with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Organization (AASHTO) Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities, the American with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the Vermont

5

East Montpelier Village Safety Improvement Project Statement of Qualifications

Agency of Transportation (VTrans) manuals, specifications, standards and methods. Working successfully through the permitting maze for a project can be overwhelming to communities. We find initial meetings to discuss a project with agencies and officials can help in understanding the requirements and can result in a more predictable outcome.

L&D has extensive experience at presenting information to the general public, municipal boards and commissions, and governmental agencies, both at formal and informal hearings and working sessions. In addition, L&D staff has achieved effective diplomatic skills in dealing with property owners during the process of leading numerous transportation related projects. These essential services include meetings throughout the planning and design phases, coordinating property appraisals and negotiations with landowners. Our experience has been that successful projects depend on establishing a relationship with affected landowners at the beginning of the project and maintaining it throughout the work.

Our survey crews are experienced in boundary and topographic surveys as well as with route surveys along roadways, and use the latest in survey technology, including robotic total stations and survey grade GPS. Having completed numerous VTrans bicycle and pedestrian projects throughout the state, our crews are familiar with the type and amount of information that is needed and are able to obtain that information in a timely and efficient manner. We also work closely with local communities and the state on determining existing and needed rights-of-way for designing and constructing projects.

Successful design projects are created in large part by establishing a cooperative relationship with a municipality and VTrans. We strive to integrate the design and engineering processes necessary to provide the desired project results, to ensure good communication and timely decision making in order to ensure good communications, timely decisions, maintaining the desired project schedule, and a responsive end product. We work daily with the Microsoft Suite of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint as well as Adobe Acrobat, MicroStation and AutoCAD programs. Our firm employs a successful Quality Assurance Program, which emphasizes accuracy and quality. Additionally, we focus on teamwork both internally and in partnership with our clients and other consultants in order to meet the demands of each project. We believe the following team will offer an outstanding opportunity to complete a successful project that is innovative and complete.

Ability to Meet Schedules and Budgets. L&D has a history of performing projects on time and on budget. Recent examples of LTF projects include;

• The Pearl Street streetscape improvements project in Essex Junction, which was designed, permitted and constructed in 1 year and was completed on budget. This project involved a survey to confirm the Pearl Street / Route 15 right-of-way, and coordination with the Champlain Valley Exposition for their new entrance. The success of this project was a result of the collaboration between the Village, CVE, VTrans, and L&D, and everyone’s commitment to a demanding project schedule.

• The Lincoln Street Sidewalk project in Essex Junction, which was also designed and permitted in less than 1 year, including coordination with the railroad, and was completed on budget. This project involved a sidewalk extension along the VTrans and Village segments of Lincoln Street (Route 2A) as well as street lighting.

• The Old Stage Road sidewalk project in Williston was designed and constructed in coordination with a waterline project which was being designed by a different firm. While this project was completed under budget, permitting issues for the waterline portion of the project caused it to be constructed 6 months later than planned.

• The Avenue C slope stabilization project for the Town of Williston was surveyed, designed and constructed within twelve months and within the project budget. Timely completion of this project was critical to avoiding damage to the town road. • The East Poultney Sidewalk project design was started in January of 2013. The Town had been told that construction would not happen until 2015, but Final Plans have been submitted, and construction is now anticipated to occur this summer. With a total design budget of approximately $41,000, the project is currently $12,000 under budget.

L&D has always prided itself on working with our clients to provide a quality project in a timely fashion and within the proposed project budget. While this is not always possible, due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control, such as the regulatory process, abutter’s concerns or the right-of-way process in general, we stay in constant contact with our clients to explain the issues and work out new schedules and/or budgets. The project schedule identifies the defined tasks and identified completion dates. We anticipate being able to begin the project in June, 2014 once awarded by the

Past Performance on Similar Projects. Over the past 20 years, our team has worked successfully on a variety of projects with the VTrans LTF Section on projects throughout Vermont. As noted above, we have recently been or are currently involved in the design, planning and construction of nearly twenty bike path and sidewalk projects throughout Vermont. These projects have varied from a several hundred foot long sidewalk in Essex to a two mile long bike path in Newport. Many of our projects have had design elements similar to this project such as stormwater improvements and projects adjacent to state highways. We have prepared Construction Plans and Documents for all of the projects we have designed, and reviewed the plans and documents for those which we have served as the MPM. We have used the latest VTrans document template to prepare the documents for three segments of bike path along Route 2A in Williston, a major streetscape project in Johnson, a stormwater separation project in Johnson and a bike path along Route 100 in Dover. Attachment A includes letters of recommendation. Attachment B includes several work examples of past projects which we have completed, including contact information for those projects.

Essex Junction Redevelopment Project - Village of Essex Junction, Vermont We worked with VTrans and the Village of Essex Junction to reconstruct the sidewalks and replace the traffic signal at the Five Corners intersection. With construction complete, the new sidewalks on all five approaches now include pedestrian scale lighting and are fully ADA compliant. This project benefits a large number of school children that pass though the Five Corners intersection as they walk to the elementary schools and the High School located in the Village. Reference: Ande Deforge, VTrans LTF Section, 828-3975

Pearl Street Sidewalk Improvements – Village of Essex Junction, Vermont L&D teamed with the Village of Essex Junction and the Champlain Valley Exposition (CVE) on the design, engineering, and permitting of streetscape improvements along the westerly gateway to the Village. Building upon the conceptual visions and sketches for this segment of Pearl Street, our team worked through the VTrans LTF process and developed construction drawings and documents. A particular challenge for this project was the resurvey of of the historical right-of-way for Route 15 through the project corridor. This was done for right-of-way purposes, but also so that the Village of Essex Junction could take over the control of that portion of the State Highway.

Streetscape elements include a new pedestrian and vehicle entrances to CVE, a new ticket building, concrete sidewalks incorporating a variety of colors and textures, street lighting, and landscaping. Reference: Ande Deforge, VTrans LTF Section, 828-3975

Essex Center Sidewalk - Essex, Vermont L&D designed a missing sidewalk connection along VT Route 15 to connect existing sidewalks on the west side of the road to a bike path that ended approximately 300 feet away on the east side of the road. This project involved the design of a gabion wall to traverse along the top edge of a steep drainage ravine and included the design of a new signalized pedestrian crossing.
