TO: The Honorable Mayor and Council FROM: H. Dwayne Henderson, P.E. City Engineer APPROVED BY COUNCIL APR 19 2022 SUBJECT: Resolutions 2022 -03, 2022 -04 and 2022 -05, Surface Transportation Project Application for Three (3) Asphalt Overlay Projects East 1 16th Street North, North Memorial Drive to North Mingo Road North Garnett Road, East l 16th Street North to East 126th Street North US Highway 169 East Service Road, East 76th Street North to East 86th Street North DATE: April 15, 2022 In January 2022, Indian Nations Council of Governments ( INCOG) opened applications for the FY 2024 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. Road rehabilitation and reconstruction projects are scored together, with the higher scoring projects being successfully funded. This year, INCOG opened the projects up to where multiple projects could be submitted as long as projects were prioritized based on funding preference. After internal review, staff is proposing three (3) projects be submitted. Each project has: Increasing average daily traffic; Are located adjacent to a project either under construction or soon will be under construction and will affect the surface of the road due to road construction; Roads that should be able to withstand waiting 3 -4 years for funding to be approved and ready to make improvements. The projects recommended are as follows: • East 116th Street North, North Memorial Drive to North Mingo Road • North Garnett Road, East 116th Street North to East 126th Street North • US Highway 169 East Service Road, East 76th Street North to East 86th Street North East 116th Street North, North Memorial Drive to North Mingo Road is a heavily traveled road. Recent traffic counts taken showed that 9,830 vehicles per day (VPD) traveled the two -lane road. The road funnels traffic from US Highway 169 to US Highway 75. The City of Owasso annexed the road in the mid -70s and has been in our maintenance system since then. The road has not been resurfaced in many years and is due for a new surface. The project is located at the west end of the East 116th Street North Vision Project corridor and will need a new surface even more with the increased traffic this corridor will experience. North Garnett Road, East 116th Street North to East 126th Street North is another heavily traveled two -lane road, registering 7,240 VPD. The project is currently maintained by Tulsa County, but half the road belongs to the City of Owasso by way of annexation. The roadway is the original US STP Funding Page 2 Highway 169 that traversed along North Garnett Road from East 86th Street North to Collinsville, Oklahoma. Tulsa County has been using the double chip and seal method to resurface the road; however, the heavy traffic requires the road to be resurfaced every 4 -5 years. The expansion of the intersection at East 116th Street North and Garnett Road and the subsequent mile south of the intersection will allow more traffic to flow in the area.` A mill and overlay of the road section is being proposed to restore the life of the road. Tulsa County has agreed that if the project is funded, they will contribute 50% of the local match for the project. The US Highway 169 service road between East 76th Street North to East 86th Street North is a busy roadway that serves many businesses, restaurants, single - family, multi - family and light industrial users. The road section was constructed by ODOT with the new elevated US Highway 169 in the 1980s. The road has medium duty asphalt, but has had very little maintenance since originally constructed. Staff registered traffic loads for one week and the traffic averaged 6,280 VPD. The floodplain on the southern end is not conducive to curb and gutter due to potential flooding, which is evident with the use of large borrow ditches. For this project, staff proposes to concentrate on the road surface through this program and continue to maintain the drainage with local crews. As the interchange at East 76 +h Street North and US Highway 169 is modified, there will be an increase of traffic on this section of road as people avoid the construction. Staff has targeted these sections of roadway for resurfacing in the next few years as part of the annual street rehabilitation program, but the cost to mill and overlay the roads with 100% City of Owasso funds would take almost 2 years of funding. Utilizing STP for arterial maintenance has been staff's focus for the last few years and these three projects are prime candidates for the funds. STP FUNDS: 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, help advance the Regional Transportation Plan through safety improvements, and reduce traffic congestion. Proposed projects are evaluated for eligibility and prioritized based on a 100 -point rating system. While the two project categories (rehabilitation and capacity improvements) have different scoring criteria and reconstruction projects score higher, maintenance projects typically cost less and asking for less funds score higher at the end. The total funding for projects in the urbanized area is $22,000,000 for the FY 2024 funding year. $6,000,000 is designated to the Gicrease Expressway implementation, which leaves $16,000,000 for remaining projects. INCOG solicited for STP funding applications with a submittal deadline of March 18, 2022. Resolutions are allowed to be submitted following the deadline. PROPOSED RESOLUTION FOR CONSTRUCTION PHASE: Similar to the process utilized in obtaining federal funding assistance for previous STP projects, such as East 86th Street North Pavement Improvements from North 119th East Avenue to North 129th East Avenue that were recently bid by ODOT, a resolution is necessary in order to complete the application process. The application will request federal funding assistance for the construction of the roadway improvements. If this project is selected in spring 2024, the funding for construction will be targeted in FY 2027 or sooner, depending on funding availability. STP Funding Page 3 CONCEPTUAL COST SUMMARIES: The proposed work for these roadway sections is to remove the surface course of pavement and replace it with a new surface course. The pavement will be restriped. Repairs will be made as needed and driveway aprons replaced if necessary. Based on the conceptual cost estimate, the anticipated costs for construction of the proposed roadway improvements are listed below. Construction administration (testing, inspection and administration of pay applications) is equal to 10% of the construction fee. Budgeting another 10% for engineering, surveying and geotechnical exploration, the estimated total project cost for each submitted roadway segment is listed below. If authorized by the City Council, the City of Owasso will pay for engineering design locally and request ODOT funding to contribute towards construction. 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 tables indicate the project estimates: East 1 16th Street North, North Memorial Drive to North Minao Road Project Segment Estimate ODOT Portion City of Owasso Construction $621,182 $496,946 $124,236 Administration $62,118 $49,694 $12,424 Engineering $62,118 N/A $62,118 Total Project Cost $745,418 $546,640 $198,778 North Garnett Road, East 1I6th Street North to East 126th Street North Project Segment Estimate ODOT Portion City of Owasso /Tulsa County Construction $668,500 $534,800 $133,700 Administration $66,850 $53,480 $13,370 Engineering $66,850 N/A $66,850 Total Project Cost $802,200 $588,280 $213,920 US Hiqhway 169 East Service Road, East 76th Street North to East 86th Street North Project Segment Estimate ODOT Portion City of Owasso Construction $825,176 $660,140 $165,035 Administration $82,518 $66,014 $16,504 Engineering $82,518 N/A $82,518 Total Project Cost $990,211 $726,154 $264,057 Therefore, 100% of the engineering costs will be paid by the City of Owasso. Construction and construction administrative services will be shared with ODOT paying for 80% of these costs and the City of Owasso paying 20% of these costs. The total project cost to ODOT will be 73 %, which STP Funding Page 4 will be paid with STP funds. Local project costs for the overall project will be 27 %. Reducing the STP request to 73% will allow an extra point in the scoring criteria. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Resolutions 2022 -03, 2022 -04, and 2022 -05.
