PROJECT APPROACH CONTINUED <br />DESIGN SERVICES <br />Utilizing the field assessment and the detailed survey <br />provided by DLZ, Shrewsberry will design the recommended <br />pedestrian improvements. Our extensive experience has given us <br />the skill set to design pedestrian improvements facing all types of <br />obstacles, including limited right-of-way, existing building constraints, <br />minimization of utility conflicts through design, avoiding impact <br />to historic properties, navigating unique project commitments, <br />and connecting the proposed improvements to old and dated <br />infrastructure. Our project experience showcases that we can <br />successfully design and deliver all types of ADA compliant facilities. <br />Our team understands physical and project scope constraints <br />can sometimes limit adhering to accessible design standards. <br />When this occurs, we will design curb ramps to be compliant to <br />the maximum extent possible and submit a technical inquiry to <br />the INDOT Technical Advisory Committee (TAC). Mark has <br />experience working with INDOT TAC and knows how to navigate <br />the process successfully. <br />UTILIT y COORDINATION <br />Utility coordination will be another essential aspect of <br />the project development process. Due to the primary residential <br />use of the area, utilities including gas, water, sewer, electric power, <br />storm sewer, cable, telephone, and fiber optic are all anticipated <br />to be present. Our INDOT Certified utility coordinator, Yosief <br />Asnake, will have early, frequent, and ongoing communication <br />with all utilities to ensure utility conflicts or relocation needs are <br />identified quickly and do not negatively impact the project delivery. <br />RIGHT-OF-WAy ACQUISITION <br />Right-of-way acquisition will be another critical path <br />item for this project. While Shrewsberry can prioritize projects that <br />have minimal right-of-way impact, the need to acquire necessary <br />right-of-way may be required, as shown by the inclusion of <br />INDOT prequalification 12.2. We have partnered with Dodd Title <br />to meet this prequalification. <br />CONSTRUCTION SERVICES <br />The Shrewsberry team will remain committed to this <br />project well after submitting the final design document. We will <br />remain available to answer questions that arise during bidding, to <br />attend the pre-construction meeting, and be available to answer <br />questions or address concerns from the City of South Bend, the <br />contractor, or the selected construction inspection team through <br />contract completion. <br />WHY SHREWSBERRY? <br />As described in the preceding pages, the Shrewsberry Team is the clear choice for <br />South Bend. <br />Our team features: <br /> All necessary prequalification <br />categories for this work; <br />More than adequate capacity and <br />resources to complete the work; <br />Outstanding expertise with directly <br />related pedestrian improvement <br />projects; <br />References who will testify to our <br />recent success stories; An assembled team <br />who are leaders in the field of pedestrian <br />improvement projects. <br />A project manager who also excels <br />in budget and schedule adherence and <br />client communication; <br />Innovative project approach and <br />viable cost-saving ideas; and <br />Local firms dedicated to serving <br />local communities. <br />SHREWSBERRY & ASSOCIATES  PROjECT UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH <br />SOUTH BEND  OUR LADY OF HUNGARY NEIGHBORHOOD SIDEWALKS AND ADA RAMPS (DES.
