Indian River County 1 Impact Fee Update Study <br />State Roadway Costs <br />This section examines the ROW, construction, and other cost components associated with <br />state roads with respect to transportation capacity improvements in Indian County. For this <br />purpose, recent bid data from state roadway projects throughout Florida and the FDOT's <br />Long Range Estimates (LRE) were used to identify and provide supporting cost data for state <br />improvements. The cost for each roadway capacity project was separated into four phases: <br />design, CEI, ROW and construction. <br />D esign and CEI <br />D esign costs for state roads were estimated at 9 percent construction phase costs based on <br />a review of cost data collected for recent tram. sportation impact tee studies throughout <br />Florida.

These three projects averaged <br />approximately $2.95 million per lane mile for construction. However, due to the small <br />sample size, these projects were blended with 49 additional capacity expansion projects <br />throughout Florida, which resulted in a weighted average cost of $2.44 million per lane <br />mile. An analysis of county roadway improvements, where a larger sample of local projects <br />was available, in relation to statewide county road improvements, indicated that <br />construction costs average approximately 83 percent of construction costs statewide. <br />Based on this conclusion, the construction costs for state roadways in Indian River County <br />Tindale -Oliver & Associates, Inc.
