RESOLUTION: REQUEST APPROVAL FOR THE PROPOSED CHANGE ORDER FOR WEITZ TO INSTALL THE SERVICE CONDUCTORS FOR POWER TO THE ORBT PLATFORMS AS INCLUDED IN THE ORBT STATION ROADWAY PACKAGE, A PORTION OF THE OMAHA RAPID BUS TRANSIT PROJECT EXPLANATION: Weitz was awarded the ORBT Roadway Package contract for $8,903,028.00. The package included the construction of all of the components related to the station platforms including some utility installations. The bid package included the installation of electrical conduits, power cabinets and communications wiring from the power cabinet on the platform to the canopy. Through design discussions with OPPD they were going to install the electrical service conductors from their power source to the power cabinet on the platform. Based on OPPD’s current workload and ability to meet the construction schedule, Metro requested a proposal from Weitz to complete the work. The scope of the proposed change order is the installation of the service conductor from the OPPD source location to the new power cabinet installed at all 24 platforms. The cost of the proposed change order from Weitz is a not to exceed amount of $199,720.00. The proposed amount is 9.89% greater than the Independent Cost Estimate. We are requesting the Board authorizes the Executive Director to execute the proposed change order for Weitz to install the service conductors to provide power service to the 24 ORBT Roadway Package platforms. This item was forwarded to the Procurement Committee, prior to the Board meeting for their review. 6.

  • RED Lanes Fundamentals Report
    REPORT 1: RED LANES FUNDAMENTALS RED Lanes Study Final Report R1-1 RED Lanes Fundamentals June 2020 RED LANE FUNDAMENTALS A Technical Overview Report on Transit Priority Lane Treatments INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY OF CONTENTS PURPOSE OF REPORT The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) RED Lanes Study is taking a comprehensive look at transit priority lanes as a potential part of the region’s approach to enhancing its transportation system to meet growing demand, improve transit operations, and diversify modal options for local and regional travel. RED lanes are sometimes referred to as business access and transit (BAT) lanes or transit priority lanes. These facilities are an increasingly common component of transportation planning and transit investment across the U.S. and around the world. They can be a cost-effective solution for improving transit operations and service reliability. This report introduces the key concepts and components of RED lanes, with a focus on typical considerations for planning and implementation. CAMPO defines RED lanes as restricted transit lanes that typically also allow automobile use for: • Right turns, • Emergency vehicles, and • Driveway access. The primary objective of RED lanes is to optimize bus operations in a corridor. This objective aims to maximize transit competitiveness, reliability, and ridership as well as to expand local and regional travel choices through the dedication of right-of-way. RED lanes also aim to minimize disruption to motor vehicle travel by sharing dedicated lanes
