McMahon Associates, Inc. (McMahon) is pleased to provide this proposal for traffic engineering
services associated with the proposed widening of 41st Street at US -1, in Vero Beach, Florida.
Specifically, this proposal is for services to prepare signal design plans for the intersection of US -1 at
41" Street (Study Intersection).
This proposal is based on the assumption that all project baseline geometry, existing and proposed
right-of-way, topographic, geotechnical, and sub -surface utility exploration (SUE) information
necessary to complete the design will be provided by Carter Associates, Inc.
The existing topography information will include existing features and proposed roadway
improvement information for a minimum distance of 200' in the north, south, west and east direction of
the study intersection. Field survey data, to be provided by Carter Associates, Inc., must include
planimetric survey delivered in CADD format and shall include horizontal location of edges of road,
curbs, gutters, sidewalks, pavement markings, surface features of utilities, signage, existing poles,
landscaping trees and features within the project limits and within all right-of-way. Sufficient data will
be provided to establish roadway crown elevations, roadway slopes, and elevations at the base of any
new mast arm upright.
In order to provide the proper design for the traffic signal supports, subsurface soil information must
be provided by Carter Associates, Inc. Soil borings will be obtained in the field by a Geotechnical
Engineer, at all corners of the study intersection. The geotechnical information will be analyzed, and
the project Geotechnical Engineer will provide a standard report. This information will be utilized for
the design of traffic signal mast arm supports.
McMahon will coordinate with the existing utility owners within the project corridor to receive
information to show the existing utilities on the signali7ation plan, as outlined in the Scope of Work

section below. If right-of-way or other project constraints dictate that a proposed mast arm base be
placed in the vicinity of an existing underground utility, then Carter Associates, Inc. will provide the
sub -surface utility exploration (soft dig) necessary to identify the utility conflict. If additional right-of-
way or easements are required for the proposed signal equipment locations, Carter Associates, Inc. will
obtain the necessary agreements.
The Scope of Work includes the following tasks:
SCOPE OF WORK
TASK 1— TRAFFIC SIGNAL MODIFICATION PLANS PREPARATION AND APPROVAL
The signalization modification plans will be prepared in conformance with State and Federal
guidelines regarding traffic signal design in conjunction with the additional proposed lanes along 41st
Street.
The various tasks required in conjunction with the development of the traffic signal plans are as
follows:
A. Signalization Plan — The signali7ation plan will be prepared in MicroStation in a standard
plan format of 11" x 17", and at a scale of 1" = 40'. Basic information presented on the plan
shall include, but shall not be limited to, roadway geometry, pavement markings, traffic
regulatory signs, street names, construction stationing, drainage inlets, sidewalks, right-of-
way lines and conflicting underground and overhead utilities. This information will be
required to ascertain the location for the proposed mast arms and traffic and pedestrian
signal related equipment.
Detailed information will include signal head type and locations, pedestrian signal and
detector type and locations, signal pole locations, regulatory signs, and other appropriate
details. We will coordinate with the appropriate governmental agencies to ensure that the
signal hardware is compatible with other signals along the corridor.
The fee does not include costs for designing utility relocation plans. McMahon will,
however, send one set of plans to each affected utility company in order to obtain current
utility information to be included on the plans. McMahon will make every effort to design
the traffic signal to avoid any existing utilities. If utility relocation is necessary, the utility
relocation design and plans can be created under a supplemental work agreement.
B. General Note Sheet — A general construction note sheet will be prepared, and will be
included with the plan set package. The general notes will include general construction
information, utility operation data, maintenance of traffic information, and reference to
Patrick S. Walther, P.E.
March 11, 2015
Page 3
standard or special construction details/notes as required by the Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT).
C. Quantities Sheet — The quantities sheet will include a tabulation of items, description and
quantity of materials, and type of work for the location. Specific notes referencing pay items
or indicating special design information will also be indicated.
D. Mast Arm Detail Sheets — For purposes of this proposal, it is assumed that the mast arm
design will be in conformance with the FDOT Mast Arm Assemblies Indices. The Mast Arm
Details sheets will include the tables showing the mast arm pole and arm designations, as
well as the signal and sign data for each mast arm structure.
The services to be performed pursuant to this agreement are strictly limited to those expressly set forth
herein.
FEE
The fee for the above-mentioned services is $15,390.00. If additional services are required that exceed
those identified in this Scope of Work, a supplemental agreement will be submitted to the client for
review and approval prior to the commencement of any additional tasks. Additional services will
commence upon written authorization to proceed by the client.
SCHEDULE
We are prepared to initiate work on the project upon receipt of written authorization to proceed.
McMahon will use its best efforts to complete this work in accordance with the client's meeting
schedule.
TERMINATION
This agreement may be terminated by the authorized representative effective immediately on receipt of
written notice. Payment will be due for services rendered through the date written notice is received.
BINDING STATUS
The client and McMahon Associates, Inc. bind themselves, their partners, successors, assigns, heirs,
and/or legal representatives to the other party to the Agreement, and to the partners, successors,
assigns and legal representatives of such other party with respect to all covenants of the proposal.
