Also included with the Addendum is a professional service proposal from Abonmarche in the amount of $12,900.00 to provide the planning study report. The purpose of this project is to examine the design parameters and costs associated with the construction of a roadway and bridge over the Indiana Toll Road connecting the intersection of Nimtz and Moreau to Cleveland and Mayflower. The design study would also look at the potential to incorporate or create joint access to the land parcels owned by the Indiana Toll Road (former state police post and ITR maintenance service point) along the roadway corridor. The roadway would allow connection of the Blackthorn Corporate Park and the Hutsfiled Square and Portage Prairie and create a new local road ITR crosspoint between Bendix Drive and Olive Road. The bridge concept is also an important linkage element for future pedestrian and bicycle circulation in the NW corridor. The Nimtz Parkway Trail, proposed to be constructed from Moreau Court to the Blackthorn GC entrance, would be able to connect into the network already in place in Hutsfield Square and along Cleveland Road. The bridge would be designed to incorporate pedestrian and bicycle access and allow a point of safe crossing over the Indiana Toll Road. Future trail sections along Nimtz would benefit from the bridge being in place providing additional connectivity. Staff requests approval of Resolution 3011 and the Addendum To Master Agency Agreement for the Mayflower Road Planning Study. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
