RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Union Pacific
Railroad Company for improvements to the railroad crossings on Main
...¡treet for a total cost of $58,301.
~ISCUSSION
Construction of the pavement rehabilitation project on Main Street
between Edinger and Columbine is anticipated to begin in July 2004.
Within the limits of this project is a railroad crossing that is in poor
condition (Exhibit 1). City staff recently met with representatives from
Union Pacific Railroad Company (UPRC) regarding the condition of the at-
grade railroad crossings north of Goetz Street. UPRC has agreed to
replace the existing asphalt crossings with concrete panels with the
condition that the City shares the costs.
The City's share shall not exceed $58,301 which is 50% of the total cost
to replace the street surface at the railroad crossing with concrete
panels. Concrete crossings have proven to be more durable and more cost
effective than asphalt. Once completed, the new concrete crossings will
provide a smoother ride for motorists.
