Box 580 Fort Collins, CO 80522.0580 7 — 970.221.6605 / ,L 3� 970.221,6378 -fax 111 fcgov. com/engineering To: Jun O'Neil, Director of Purchasing and Risk Management From: Terry Tyrrell, Consultant Project Manger & Erika Keeton, Special Projects Engineer U Date: August 24, 2012 Re: MAX BRT — Requisition Request BNSF Railroad Mason Street Track Rehabilitation Justification and Independent Cost Estimate In March of 2011, the City of Fort Collins entered into an Agreement, Mason Corridor Bus Rapid Transit Construction and Maintenance Agreement (C&M Agreement), in which the BNSF and the City is bound to adhere to. BNSF is required as part of the Project and the Agreement to improve their railroad signalization and track systems along the Downtown Corridor of Fort Collins (Old Main to Maple Street along Mason Street), In a joint effort to construct the necessary Project infrastructure, the City, FTA and BNSF agreed to improve the safety of the traveling public by providing a curbed median section to house the BNSF tracks. This effort coincides with the ongoing conversion of Mason Street to two-way traffic that is necessary for the MAX BRT operations along existing Mason Street. As railroad work must be performed by the railroad due to the Agreements and union regulations, the costs were developed by BNSF and are proprietary. We have included the cost estimates for these BNSF improvements as an attachment (BNSF Railway Company FHPM Estimate For City of Fort Collins MP72.8 to FT COLLINS) in support of our Independent Cost Estimate (ICE). The original estimate, which was developed by BNSF as part of the C&M agreement March 22, 2011, is in the amount of $862,796.00. BNSF went through the "Request for Proposals" procurement process to select a contractor for the necessary civil construction work associated with the Project in support of track rehabilitation effort (see attached BNSF Railway Company Request for Proposal Bid ID# GE02720). The low responsive bidder was Oftedal Construction Incorporated. In the RFP, a scope of work and related bid tab was provided for completion by the Contractor. BNSF supplied the City with bid tabs submitted by Oftedal on April 11, 2012 that includes the scope of work to remove the existing asphalt roadway, utility location, excavation and sub -drain installations. The track, ballast and cross ties and portions of the excavation and backfill are allocated to BNSF pursuant to the C&M Agreement. The City's responsible portion of this bid is indicated in the spreadsheet in the RFP Attachment and totals 872,563.90. BNSF is solely responsible for the cost of the track rehabilitation as indicated in the Bid tab spreadsheet. The City of Fort Collins negotiated a weighted percentage of the total cost of the Oftedal proposal as it relates to the portion of IlJ,5OI1 STREET OPTION 2 TRkCtl< REHABILITATION IAP 7,3.46 - 74.,`.0 - LS 476 6 Bid Tab =7 = Description I Estimated QUdag Unit Unit Cost TOWI CityCosts BNSF Costs Percentage Cost Percentage Cost n'mk �..CCF I OFTEDAL I :dobilivion 1 LS 5150,000.00 Si50.OD9.1i 9i:i Sf36.5W.05 9% S13.SO0.'1 ' AsphJt Removel II.M SY $2,00 ,S22.E66.05 100% 523.666M D-A 50.00 3 Utility Lneetien 1 LS SA,490.00 SA.490.00 i0085 E4.490.00 0% S0.130 4 Tract: Remo,J 1 LS M.200.00 °-3E.200.01i Oa So.05 100°A SM200.00 5 E:caali0n 12,1C0 CY 15.70 572.9W.7, 845$ 1.51.22 AD 16% SiL67 M 6 Sub Errca0on 5.000 CY £5.70 528.500.oc 100t1 S28.500.00 036 $0.00 7 C=e rl Tr.m,cnt ITEM REMOVED FROIA BID $0.00 05;, 50.00 0% S0.00 8 Gco Grid (dalerial) 5.090 SY $2.70 513.500.00 Ia0:: 513.500.00 0ed 50.00 9 Des Grid(Pla:cmc00 5.000 SY Mae 54.000.OG 100•4 54.000.0(r 0°o 50.00 to Drain Acerccam 448 CY 546.00 $20.608.00 loo.".1 E20,608.00 0tt 50.00 II 13'Pcrfmatcd Drain Rpe(EPW lnadinD Capabic) 3.759 LF S18.00 567.602.00 10015 S57662.00 0% 50,00 12 Inlet Spccid(]rJi.c Dcin) 10 EA 53,010.00 530,10D.00 100-1. 530.100.00 oti, SOLD 13 Inlet Spacial (Drein Buin HS foot) 6 EA 53,010.00 £18,060,00 100% S18,050.00 0'14 $0.00 14 11.1.t Spccinl(DrJn Bavigflortc.o 3 EA $3,010.00 59,030.00 100% 59,039.00 0% S0,01) 15 lInIcE Tape C(10 Fool) 2 EA 53,700.00 57.400.00 t00% 57.400.00 0% $0.00 16 Cleanout 23 EA $310.00 $8.930.00 100% 58.990.00 05$ SO.OD V 15 Inch reinforced Concmm Pipe (RCP) 12 LF $100.00 $1.200.00 100!: 51,200.00 0% Moo )6 Geolexlile Filmr Fckic(Draimgc - Class A) 3.342 SY $2.25 $7.519.61 10015 $7.519.50 0% 50.00 IC Sub-Ballut 9.530 CY 1 $42-501 $405,025.DD toot. $405,025.00 0% Som 20 IneidentiA hems 1 LS 550.000.00 $50.000.00 50til 525.000.00 5061 525.00DOD SUBTOTAL (Oftedal Estimate): 5960.910.50 SUBTOTAL (CfT1'/BNSF COSTS WITHOUT N1013IL17ATI0NI: ST36.036.90 574.873.60 PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL TO BE USED FOR MOBILIZATION SPLIT: 91 •-A 9% SUBTOTAL ICR)'IBNSF COSTS WITH MOBILIZ4Tf0N) 5872.536.90 S88,373.6D !i urP fir Ur rrr of Fr, rnlrrvc 2I 0a11mt(13NSF Specification) ITEM REMOVED FROM BID 7_3 Sim:mrai Bacull(Class 1) ITEM REMOVED FROM BID 23 Curb S GuuerTSpe 2(Scdim B) ITEM REMOVED FPOIA BID 24 Hot MixA.phaB(NIChing-Avemeel0"D:plh) ITEM REMOVED FROM BID �1 Tragic Central REM REMOVED FROM BID NOTES: 1.

The cost difference between the ICE developed by BNSF and the Request for Proposal provided by Oftedal is $9769.90, or approximately 1% difference between the ICE and the Oftedal proposal. After reviewing BNSF's original estimate for this effort we reviewed previous cost estimates from BNSF and compared them to the estimates attached herein and found them to be comparable. BNSF must be utilized for this work, as it is a requirement of the C&M Agreement. Based on our understanding of the C&M Agreement and the requested scope and budget provided by BNSF/Oftedal of $872,536.90 for the Mason Street MAX BRT Project required BNSF efforts to convert Mason Street to two-way traffic in order to safely operate the BRT Buses, we believe the requested budget is reasonable and adequate.
