Title
Central Mesa Light Rail Extension, City Funded Asphalt Upgrade (Districts 3 and 4)
The approved Design and Construction Agreement includes a process for the City to add City funded improvements to the project. These improvements typically include upgrades to City infrastructure that are located adjacent to or within the new light rail facilities, but are not being impacted directly by the project. These improvements are referred to as Concurrent Non-Project Activities (CNPA), which must be funded by the City.
Staff is requesting approval of the expenditure of funds to upgrade the pavement and use a polymer modified terminal blend asphalt binder for the surface course paving to extend the life of the road and reduce further maintenance disruptions to the light rail corridor. The total amount of the proposed improvements is $321,049. This project is funded by 2013 authorized Street bonds.
