INTRODUCTION
This work order defines the AECOM efforts required to incorporate the 50% plan review
comments into the status plan set. The tasks associated with this work order include:
· Project Initiation and Continuing Requirements
· Engineering Design
A. PROJECT INITIATION AND CONTINUING REQUIREMENTS
As part of the continuing requirements, AECOM will perform the following:
1. Progress Meetings. The City’s Project Manager and the AECOM Project Manager will
be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Scope of Work. Specifically, the
Project Managers will meet bi-weekly to cover the following:
· Activities completed since the last meeting
· Review of outstanding/late activities
· Activities to be completed by the next meeting
· Solutions proposed for unresolved and/or anticipated issues
· Task order financial status and invoicing
Progress meetings will generally be conducted as conference-calls, however
occasionally it may be coordinated that in-person meetings can be achieved. A total of 6
(1–hour) progress meetings are included in this scope. It is assumed 2 meetings will be
in the City’s office and the remainder will be conference calls.
The consultant will provide monthly invoices to the City Project Manager stating progress
on the project tasks and highlighting any issues of concern.
Deliverables:
· Progress Meeting Minutes
· Monthly invoices

2. Project Management. The Consultant will coordinate the work tasks being
accomplished by the entire AECOM Project Team to ensure project work completion
stages are on schedule. Project staffing and assigning of tasks, scheduling and
invoicing are included within this task.
B. ENGINEERING DESIGN
As part of engineering design, AECOM will perform the following activities:
1. Survey Supplement Support. AECOM will coordinate with the City to identify/confirm
the survey design needs. Survey design will be performed by the City and provided to
AECOM as noted below:
a. Topographic survey (to include utilities and existing right-of-way) of the following
items:
· Constructed embankment material prism north and south of Vine Drive/BNSF
· Constructed CBC north of Vine Drive/BNSF
· Storm drain feature locations at Lemay/Lincoln and Lemay/Buckingham
intersections and the storm system from the neighborhood north of Buckingham
to Lincoln
b. 3D existing ground surface
2. Roadway Engineering. AECOM will perform the following roadway engineering tasks,
as noted below, to incorporate the City’s 50% plan review comments into the current
50% status plans. Engineering required to advance the design further is not included in
the scope but will be addressed in a future work order.
This effort includes:
a. Design Criteria. Review design criteria application and exception list created for 50%
plan submittal, and coordinate with City staff to prioritize the exceptions.
b. Revisions to horizontal alignment. This task includes alignment refinement at the
north tie-in to achieve a higher design speed. Options discussed in the 50% review
meeting will be evaluated and presented to the City for consensus.
c. Simplify and revise the typical section template based on 50% review comments.
Update the roadway reference file, the 3D model, and the proposed design surface
to reflect the revisions.
d. Update design of roadside grading and toes-of-slope. Revise the preliminary rough
grading and earthwork quantities to reflect the embankment material placed north
and south of Vine Drive/BNSF.
e. Apply turning templates. Use AutoTurn to test and review turning movements at the
signalized intersections (Lincoln, Buckingham, Suniga) to verify intersection layout.
f. Plan Development. Roll plots and electronic 11x17 PDF’s will be utilized for
reviewing and coordinating design revisions. Roadway plan sheets will be revised to
reflect updated alignment and roadway layout.
3. Hydrology/Hydraulic Engineering. AECOM will perform high-level profile and capacity
analysis for the roadside ditches, as discussed at the 50% plan review meeting.

4. Landscape/Urban Design. AECOM will update the 50% landscape plans according to
the revisions made to the rendering.
5. Major Structure Design. AECOM will finalize the abutment foundation design for the
Vine Drive/BNSF Bridge to support the submittal to the BNSF Railroad.
a. Update 50% abutment foundation design. AECOM will evaluate and update the
abutment foundation design that is current in the 50% design plans with the results of
the geotechnical investigation. Design results will be included in the submittal to the
BNSF Railroad.
b. Preliminary BNSF Railroad Submittal. AECOM will review and/or incorporate any
City comments into the draft preliminary railroad support. Report will be prepared
and packaged in accordance with the 2016 UPRR/BNSF RR Guidelines for Grade
Separation Structures.
c. Finalize Structure Selection Report. AECOM will update and finalize the structure
selection report to reflect the abutment foundation recommendations from CTL
Thompson.
6. Geotechnical Investigation. Using the prior soil boring data, for the geosynthetic-
reinforced-soil (GRS) abutments of the proposed bridge to carry Vine Street over Lemay
Avenue, AECOM Denver geotechnical staff will:
a. Check bearing capacity and estimate settlement of the approach embankments.
b. Check 2-D global stability of the embankments (section in the direction of Vine
Street).
c. Check internal stability of the embankments to establish reinforcement length and
vertical spacing.
d. Assist AECOM Transportation staff, if needed, with detailing of the attachment of the
proposed boulder facing to the GRS substrate.
e. Prepare a technical memorandum (estimated at 2-3 pages) summarizing the
geotechnical analysis.
C. EXCLUSIONS
The following are not included in this scope and their inclusion is subject to a change in scope,
schedule and/or fee: Value Engineering studies, survey, utility coordination and design, pot-
holing, environmental, traffic engineering, phasing/MOT, SWMP, specifications, and right of way
plans. These services will be provided under a separate task order as applicable. Environmental
assumes FHWA/CDOT requirements are not applicable.
