On October 21, 2014, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Palp, Inc,, dba Excel
Paving Company, in the amount of $224,667 for the Maple Bike Trail Safety Enhancements
Project, This project has been successfully completed within budget (Exhibit 1) and will result in
enhanced safety and improved aesthetics, benefltfing the community for many years to come,
The project improved the bike trail crossings at Occidental Street, St, Andrew Place, and St,
Gertrude Place by adding bulb -outs to extend the sidewalk and narrowing the street, This
concept enhances safety by reducing the crossing distance for pedestrians and bicyclists, while
also reducing the speed of vehicles (Exhibits 2 and 3). Efficiencies achieved during construction
allowed for the design and construction of additional enhancements, Including drought - tolerant
landscaping with new irrigation systems,
The existing bike trail serves hundreds of bicyclists and pedestrians every day, in addition to
students walking and biking to Edison Elementary School. The attached preconstruction and
post - construction project photographs illustrate the City's new emphasis on mobility, safety, and
aesthetics that will be standardized and incorporated in all future capital street projects,
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #6 Community Facilities &
Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City
assets), Strategy B (equitably maintain existing streets and associated assets in a state of good
repair so they are clean, safe, and aesthetically pleasing for all users), and Strategy G (develop
