City of South Bend | Coal Line Trail (Phase I) from Lincoln Way West to Riverside Drive (Des. No. 1401810) in LaPorte District | Page 7LAWSON-FISHER ASSOCIATES LAWSON-FISHER ASSOCIATES P.C.P.C. <br />PROJECT UNDERSTANDING <br />The mid-block path crossing at Woodward Avenue <br />includes a speed table and a solar powered pedestrian <br />crossing signage. The installation of the speed table will <br />require storm sewer inlets to capture drainage on the <br />upstream side of the speed table. LFA will ensure that <br />casting elevations are properly set to achieve proper <br />drainage. <br />Each of these identified areas requires specific attention <br />to grading plans and ADA requirements. Modifications <br />to the details for grades and curb ramp layout will require <br />coordination with the designer and contractor followed <br />by proper documentation of the modifications. LFA has <br />the experience to navigate any modifications that may <br />arise during the project. <br />All vehicular traffic will be maintained during the project <br />except for Woodward Avenue, which will require a <br />detour. Pedestrian traffic for Lincolnway, Wilber Street, <br />and the Vasser/Lawndale Intersection will require detour <br />routes as well. Special attention should be paid to the <br />Vasser/Lawndale Intersection as it is flanked by Muessel <br />Intermediate School, Holy Cross, and Muessel Park and <br />needs to accommodate pedestrian traffic throughout <br />the project. <br />Utilities, Relocations and Lighting <br />Construction along Wilber Street, intersection <br />improvements at Vasser/Lawndale and improvements <br />near the shopping center will require relocation of <br />AEP overhead utility facilities. These facilities are <br />also occupied by several other telecommunications. <br />Frequent and early coordination will be paramount to <br />maintaining schedule on these relocations. <br />Coordination with the City of South Bend Water <br />Department will be required to extend a service <br />line to the drinking fountain at the Vasser/Lawndale <br />Intersection. This typically requires installation of the <br />fountain, service line and meter with a final inspection <br />prior to making the final connection between the meter <br />and service line. LFA will coordinate directly with the <br />Water Department to ensure this is completed. LFA <br />will also pay close attention to the proposed storm <br />sewer crossing at Woodward Avenue as the City has an <br />existing 8” and 12” watermain in that vicinity. LFA will <br />work with the contractor and City to pothole to verify <br />depth prior to extensive work in the area. <br />Lighting will be installed along the entire project length <br />with casing pipes installed at each intersection, road <br />and structure crossing. Once installation of the bases, <br />conduit, and wiring is competed the service point will <br />need to be energized. LFA will coordinate with AEP, <br />the contractor and the City to ensure the completion of <br />the process and transfer of proper billing for the meter <br />connection. <br />Utility delays can have a major impact on schedule <br />and budget; cost incurred as a result of delays is not <br />reimbursed by INDOT. LFA has significant experience <br />in working through utility relocation plans and schedules <br />and will apply that knowledge to successfully address <br />proper coordination. <br />Architectural Features and Landscaping <br />Architectural features on the project include benches, <br />3 different bollard types, bike repair stations, a drinking <br />fountain, lighting, a shade shelter and wayfinding <br />signage. These items often have long lead times, making <br />early shop drawing review imperative to the project <br />schedule. Also critical is ensuring bolt patterns for the <br />foundations of these various features is procured so <br />that the contractor can proceed with construction while <br />waiting for the manufacturing process. Both items will <br />be emphasized during the Pre-Construction Meeting <br />and will remain focal points on progress meetings until <br />completion. <br />Landscaping on the project includes the planting of <br />trees, shrubs, and grasses. Proper watering and timing <br />of these plantings is critical to establishment and long- <br />term survival. Successful acceptance of these plantings <br />will be critical to achieve Notice of Termination (NOT) <br />on the project. <br />AEP Overhead UtilityPedestrian MOT Routes <br />Vehicular MOT Routes
