JAS <br />TO: James E. Chandler,, <br />County Administrator <br />THROUGH: James W. Davis, P.E. <br />Public Works Direct o <br />4 <br />FROM: Michael S. Dudeck, Jr., P. <br />County Traffic Engineer g� d <br />SUBJECT: Florida Department of Transportation Request <br />Commitment of County Funds <br />Indian River County Closed Loop System <br />DATE: January 14, 1992 <br />DESCRIPTION -AND CONDITIONS <br />The Design Phase for the Closed Loop System has now entered <br />the final phase since a thorough review of the 60% Design <br />Package prepared by F. R. Aleman and Associates, Inc. has <br />been completed as of December 16, 1991. <br />"Phase I" of an overall Countywide System will tie 41 <br />intersections together under a Centralized Computer Control <br />to be located in the County Traffic Engineer's office. <br />Given County Staff's experience and specialized training, <br />this will be the first "Closed Loop System" of any size, <br />installed in the State which will give the ability for local <br />control of all signal timing, phasing, etc., once the <br />initial System is installed. <br />The System will allow us to be much more responsive to local <br />traffic conditions than any system now in service. <br />Final Design completion is scheduled for March of 1992 with <br />a Construction Contract "Letting" scheduled for July 1992. <br />Actual "construction" of the System should, begin in <br />November/December 1992. The bulk of the "construction" will <br />consist of installing new controllers, communication <br />equipment and interconnect conduit and cable. All- current <br />progress indicates that this schedule is being adhered to. <br />Of the 41 intersections involved, all but four are at <br />locations which are eligible for 100% Federal and/or State <br />Funding. Two of these intersections are County owned, <br />namely 8th Street and Old Dixie Highway and 8th Street and <br />6th Avenue. <br />The total projected costs for the project are as follows: <br />Prorated Local Share <br />1) Construction $704,400 ($17,700 - City of V.B.) <br />($17,700 - Indian River Co.) <br />2) Const. Engineering <br />and Inspection (Consultant) $317,000 <br />3) Construction Engineering 98,400 <br />TOTAL ESTIMATE $1,119,800 <br />34 <br />($ 8,000 - City of V.B.) <br />($ 8,000 - Indian River Co.) <br />($ 3,500 - City of V.B.) <br />($ 3,500 - Indian River Co.) <br />($29,200 - City of V.B.) <br />($29,200 - Indian River Co.) <br />
