Council Communication
Title: Review of the Oregon Department of Transportation Signal Project on Highway 99 (N. Main Street / Lithia Way) at the intersections of Helman, Pioneer and 2nd Streets
Dept: Public Works Department
Date: February 4, 2003
Submitted By: Paula Brown
Reviewed By:
...........................		 Brian Almquist, Interim City Administrator

Synopsis: The Oregon Department of Transportation has been working with City staff on a signal replacement project within the downtown core. City staff has been coordinating this work with the addition of crosswalk bumpouts and other pedestrian safety items. Staff and ODOT will be available to discuss the signal project and construction timeframes.
Recommendation: This item is for Council information only. No action is required.
Fiscal Impact: There are no fiscal impacts to the City as a direct result of this project. The City has entered into a separate agreement for the maintenance an operation of all signals through Ashland.
Background: The Oregon Department of Transportation is currently assembling plans and specifications for the Helman – 2nd Street Signal Project. This project installs five traffic signals on Highway 99 (N. Main Street / Lithia Way / Siskiyou Blvd.) at the intersections of Helman, Pioneer and 2nd Streets. In a separate action, Council is scheduled to approve two easements as a result of the pole and control locations.

In addition to the signals, City staff has a contract with Hammond Engineering to design the curb bumpouts and pedestrian improvements at several locations so that work can be done in conjunction with the ODOT signal work. New curb bumpouts (extensions) are being designed for the intersections of Pioneer and Lithia Way, and 2nd Street / 'C' Street and Lithia Way. In addition to these bumpouts, staff and Hammond Engineer are also designing bumpouts at N. Main and Water Streets, E. Main and Oak Streets, East Main and First Streets, and Lithia Way and Oak Street.

The project is scheduled to begin in the spring and be completed by November 2003.
