CITY OF SOUTH BEND | CE SERVICES FOR SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL AT OUR LADY OF HUNGARY AMERICAN STRUCTUREPOINT PAGE 7 PROJECT UNDERSTANDINGOUR PATHWAY TO PROGRESS American Structurepoint understands that this is not just a sidewalk project, and our experience will help us stay ahead of issues that may arise due to replacing curb ramps and sidewalks into existing situations. This project improves the pedestrian walking routes to school in the Our Lady of Hungary neighborhood. The neighborhood is made up of mostly residential housing and is bound to the north by Indiana Avenue, Franklin Street to the east, Ewing Avenue to the south and Olive Street to the west. Components of the project will involve the replacement of sidewalk and curb ramps on major walking routes to and from school to improve pedestrian safety and accessibility. Typical maintenance of traffic can consist of shoulder closures to accommodate construction activities while maintaining access to all prop- erties. A pedestrian detour is typically required along with properly placed signage. Coordination with utilities may be necessary due to the construction limits for the replacement of the curb ramps at various intersections. Our experience has seen the need for either utility pole relocation or holding an existing pole. We will review utility work plans and coordinate early and often to maintain the schedule. CONTRACT R-44114 is currently scheduled for an INDOT letting on March 12, 2025. American Structurepoint has visited the site, and we are excited to have the opportunity to submit this proposal. We look forward to delivering a high-quality project and improving the the quality of life for the residents who walk this neighborhood daily. Damaged and deteriorated sidewalk to be replaced
