City Engineer �p'OR o�R � eY ®FC ? ® ?4j6co�i IC14 Subject: Resolution 2016 -25 Application for STP Funds 106th Street North /North 129th East Avenue Intersection Improvements Date: December 16, 2016 7_Ca11161 Z *111:1 D3 The Intersection at 106th Street North /129th East Avenue is owned and maintained by Tulsa County. It is currently one of the most heavily traveled unimproved intersections in the Owasso area. Traffic counts in this area are tabulated below along with the projected counts for 2020 from 2016 Traffic Counts. Location Daily Traffic Daily Traffic Projected Daily Volume Volume Traffic Volume (Vehicles per (Vehicles per (Vehicles per day da 2016 ADT * do 2014 ADT ** 20)0 ADT 129th East Avenue, south 6,702 6,700 7,254 of 106th Street North 129th East Avenue, north 6,342 4,400 6,864 of 106th Street North 106th Street North, east of 7,465 6,300 8,080 129th East Avenue 106th Street North, west of 6,151 5,900 6,658 129th East Avenue * - Post Rejoice Christian School Opening ** - Prior to Rejoice Christian School Opening The intersection has increased in activity as the growth of Owasso has continued north. However, the traffic most assuredly will increase significantly more with the construction of the Rejoice Christian School Campus and the new Wal -Mart Neighborhood Market to the north and 200 new apartment units to the south. In 2016, Tulsa County and the City of Owasso agreed that the project was needed to expand the intersection. We agreed to share costs for the engineering design for the project, right -of- way and eventually the utility relocation, as we did for the East 1 16rh Street North /North 1291h East Ave Project. Staff has prepared a conceptual plan and preliminary design report that will be submitted to INCOG for FY 2016 -17 Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds. These funds are made available on an annual basis by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), through the Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODOT), for the implementation of eligible transportation improvements in the Tulsa Urbanized Area. INCOG administers the grant funding and has established a selection process for the distribution of STP funds. Priority funding is given to projects that meet federal regulations and help advance the Regional Transportation Plan through safety improvements and to projects that reduce traffic congestion. Proposed projects are evaluated for eligibility and priority based on a 100 - point rating system. On December 2, 2016, INCOG solicited for STP funding applications with a submittal deadline of January 31, 2017. PROPOSED RESOLUTION FOR CONSTRUCTION PHASE: Similar to the process utilized in obtaining federal funding assistance for the East 116 +h Street North and North 129th East Ave Intersection Improvements, a resolution is necessary in order to complete the application process. The 2016 -17 application will request federal funding assistance for the construction of the roadway improvements. If this project is selected in the Spring of 2016, the funding for construction will be targeted in FY 2021 or sooner, depending on funding availability. CONCEPTUAL DESIGN SUMMARY: Both East 106th Street North and North 129th East Avenue are considered secondary arterials in Owasso. The intersection is a heavily used roadway that conveys residential, commercial and school traffic in the area, as well as commuter traffic to and from Owasso. Based on the projected needs for the intersection as the school became fully developed, the engineer for the school mentioned a future need for signals at this intersection. The proposed lane configuration is a 5 -lane roadway section including 2 -lanes in each direction with left turn lanes to expedite left turning movements. The projected right turning movements warrant right -turn lanes for west bound traffic turning north and east bound traffic turning south toward the commercial area and hospital. Also included are sidewalks on each side of the intersection. Based on the conceptual design, the anticipated cost for construction of the proposed roadway improvements is $1,800,000. Construction administration (testing, inspection and administration of pay applications) is equal to 8% of the construction fee. Tulsa County has agreed that paying for 50% of Phase I (engineering design, right -of -way and utility relocations) locally and requesting ODOT funding to contribute to Phase II (construction) would allow us the best chance of obtaining funding. ODOT funding for this project would be through the Surface Transportation Program, which would fund 80% of eligible construction costs, while the local government funds 20 %. Based upon this information, the following is an estimate of the cost distribution: Project Segment Estimate ($ x1000) ODOT Portion ($ x1000) City of Owasso/Tulsa County Shared Portion $ x1000 Construction $1.800 $1.440 $0.360 Administration $0.200 $0.160 $0.040 Utility Relocation $0.600 $0.000 $0.600 Right -of -way $0.850 $0.000 $0.850 Engineering $0.200 $0.000 $0.200 Total Project Cost $3.650 $1.600 $2.050 RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval and authorization of the Mayor to execute a resolution requesting ODOT to consider the construction phase of the East 106th Street North and North 129th East Ave as a candidate for federal funding assistance through the Surface Transportation Program.
