DISCUSSION The City of Pleasanton recently updated the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan to include provisions to create an all ages and abilities design network. The Plan provides a guide to the City for achieving a comprehensive system of bicycle, pedestrian and trail facilities that will result in a safe, continuous and convenient circulation system for all users and abilities. The Plan identifies the West Las Positas Boulevard corridor between Foothill Road and Santa Rita Road (approximately 3.4 miles in length) as the highest priority project. On August 21, 2018, the City Manager authorized the Professional Services Agreement with Toole Design Group (TDG) for services related to the preparation of two conceptual design plans for bicycle and pedestrian improvements along the West Las Positas corridor. The agreement was for an amount not to exceed $92,544. During the course of project review, the need arose for additional conceptual design scenarios. These concepts include lower cost alternatives using bollards and pavement striping, versus higher cost concept alternatives using curbs and landscape barriers. Alternatives using hybrids of these design features were also added. In addition, an alternative that will include an elevated two-way separated bikeway between Hopyard Road and Fairlands Drive is also proposed to be evaluated. A complete list of all the proposed concepts to be evaluated is as follows: 1. Alternative 1.A — One-way Separated Bikeways (Lower-cost) 2. Alternative 1.B — One-way Separated Bikeways (Higher-cost) 3. Alternative 2.A —Two-way Separated Bikeways (Lower-cost) 4. Alternative 2.B —Two-way Separated Bikeways (Higher-cost) 5. Alternative 3.A - Hybrid Concept with One-way and Two-way Separated Bikeways (Lower-cost) 6. Alternative 3.B - Hybrid Concept with One-way and Two-way Separated Bikeways (Higher-cost) 7. Alternative 4 — Elevated Two-way Separated Bikeway with Landscaping (Higher- cost) Once the preferred design alternative is selected, a 35 percent design will be prepared for the project. With the additional work, TDG provided a revised cost estimate and timeline. The revised scope and budget amendment from TDG is included as Exhibit 1 to the attached First Amendment. The revised cost estimate increases the original cost estimate to a new not to exceed amount of $241,544. Page 2 of 3
