These improvements typically include upgrades to City utilities and other facilities 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. These improvements include upgrades to water, sewer, and gas facilities throughout the project limits as well as adding sleeves (conduits for future utilities) under the light rail tracks in downtown to allow for future repair and/or expansion of the Chilled Water system. The benefits of including these utility improvements now is that the work is performed at the same time as other similar project work and greatly reduces or eliminates future disruptions to the new roadway pavement and traWed, 21 Jan 2015 20:20:05 GMT
