ServicW o Ih), , Ip a uN r1o,„N".IIW N II:. °1° II IPII , II:N ud II uIE N 112° The City of South Bend (City) engaged Patrick Engineering Inc. (Patrick) to study and assess the required improvements and associated costs necessary to establish a quiet zone along the along the Norfolk Southern Railway (NS) Dearborn Division/Chicago Subdivision, as well as the Canadian National (CN)/Grand Trunk Western Railroad (GTW) Midwest Region/South Bend District. As part of that study, Patrick recommended that the quiet zone be split into three separate quiet zones, for funding and implementation purposes. As part of the study phase Patrick anticipated a single diagnostic review meeting and three (3) coordination meetings with the City. Moreover, as part of the "Implementation" phase/budget Patrick anticipated a single implementation/issuance of notices. As previously indicated the project area was split into three (3) zones. Therefore, during the implementation of the NS Quiet Zone, additional effort/coordination including coordination of NOI comments, meetings for proposed signal improvements, and coordination of agreements/change in project improvements with NS, FRA, and the City, was required to keep the quiet zone implementation progressing to meet the desired date of establishment. Furthermore, additional effort will be required to coordinate the implementation of the remaining two (2) zones (i.e. NICTD and CN-GTW); therefore, this Change Order summarizes the extra effort that has been expended and a projected additional amount of effort needed to establish the three quiet zones. Additionally, the City is proposing non -traversable curb median improvements as safety measures for Ford Street along the CN-GTW line within the limits of the desired West Side quiet zones. The City has engaged Patrick to perform the detailed design, railroad coordination and bid documents for the required non -traversable curb median improvements at Ford Street (DOT#283328K, MP 99.18) and NIPSCO driveway improvements at Grandview Avenue (DOT #870392D, MP 3.18). 00+'E 'oN"'11e N ...., NS )M',i *uoN°11/(„_; Patrick has expended extra effort as follows to -date: ■ Additional 4 hours for conference calls/email coordination for concept design assistance to City with pavement marking, signage placement and specifications. ■ Additional 16 hours completed by Patrick to coordinate NOI comments received from NS and schedule follow-up conference calls with NS, FRA regarding proposed improvements and additional NS signal improvements. ■ Additional 3.5 hours to coordinate, travel and attend second In -Person Field Meeting with NS and the City for Meade Street. ■ Additional 2 hours to coordinate construction agreement with NS. ■ Additional 4 hours to coordinate Notice of Establishment with NS and revise for submission. 00,:E Zone ' ....
