Scope of Work – Arterial Intersection Priority Study Update
for the City of Ft. Collins
August 6, 2020
General Work Description – This scope has been prepared to provide the City of Ft. Collins (“City”) with
an update to the most recent Arterial Intersection Prioritization Study (AIPS). The update will consist of
assessing a current list (as provided by the City) of priority intersections that have been deemed to
potentially need mobility and/or safety improvements. The study update will consider a wide variety of
data to develop recommendations, including traffic volumes, intersection crashes, intersection delay,
pedestrian and bicycle safety, and transit operations, just as the original study had done. The update will
narrow down the original list to a specific list of projects and recommendations on possible changes that
could improve operations and safety. A technical report will be completed that summarizes the findings.
A. Project Management and Administration
1. Initial Project Meeting – The team will conduct an internal project kick-off meeting in
accordance with our quality management requirements. Select team members will attend an
external Project Scoping meeting with the City. Meetings are assumed to be virtual.
2. Progress Meetings – AECOM will meet with the City periodically as required. A total of two
(2) additional project management progress meetings with the City (exclusive of the initial
meeting above) are assumed in this scope of work. These progress meetings will be used to
coordinate and track the work effort and resolve problems. Meetings assumed to be virtual.
3. Project Management – AECOM 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, quality reviews, scheduling, and invoicing are included
within this task. Staff hourly and overhead direct cost rates will be billed per the Master
Agreement.
4. Schedule – It is estimated that the time period necessary for the work described in this scope
is approximately 30 calendar days from Notice to Proceed.
5. Field Visits - It is assumed that one site visit may be necessary. Mileage will be billed at current
Federal mileage rates.
B. Study Elements and Assumptions
1. Project Area – The scope of work includes the list of 12 intersections provided by the City.
See Exhibit A at the end of this scope of work.
2. Data Requirements – To be provided by the City.
a. Pre-COVID Traffic Volumes (Peak Hour Turning Movement Counts)
b. Crash Data
c. Traffic Signal Controller Data (Current Signal Timing)
d. Current Synchro models covering the project areas listed in Exhibit A.
e. Current Capital Improvements Plan
C. AIPS Technical Work
1. Intersection Screening and Evaluation
a. The evaluation process will be completed in two main steps. The first will be an initial
screening (Level 1) to identify the locations with the greatest safety and operational
needs. Based on those results, and input from City staff and others, various
alternatives or improvement options will be developed for further consideration and

evaluation. The second step (Level 2) will be a more detailed evaluation of the
alternatives. This step is designed to test options to find the alternatives that address
the safety and operational issues identified in the initial screening.
i. Level 1 Screening
Traffic Operations - AECOM will use the City’s traffic signal timing model
(Synchro) to analyze each location to determine their volume to capacity (v/c)
ratio and overall intersection delay. The v/c ratio provides an indication of
whether an intersection may need to be improved by adding capacity such as
through lanes, turn lanes, or changing the intersection control device (i.e.
traffic signal or roundabout). Intersection delay provides a measure of how
the intersection is currently operating from the user’s perspective and may
also provide an indication that intersection improvements are needed. Both
v/c and intersection delay will be evaluated for the morning, noon, and
evening peak traffic periods. Intersections will be ranked according to their
v/c ratio and delay within their intersection classification category
(Arterial/Arterial, Arterial/Collector, and Arterial/Local). The top problem
intersections in each category will be identified along with specific traffic
movements within an intersection that are incurring the highest levels of
congestion.
Safety – Each arterial intersection will also be evaluated to determine high
crash locations and to identify crash patterns for potential mitigation.
Locations with noticeable patterns will be flagged for further safety
investigation during the Level 2 screening.
ii. Pre-Level 2 Screening
Prior to commencing the Level 2 Evaluation using the shortlist of intersections
from Level 1, the list will be reviewed with City staff to potentially eliminate
intersections that may already be scheduled for improvements as part of
another project, potential improvements that could result in severe right-of-
way impacts, or possibly there wasn’t an identifiable or viable improvement.
iii. Level 2 Evaluation
Upon the completion of the Level 1 and Pre-Level 2 Screenings, a list of
potential solutions for each location will be identified. Those solutions could
include improvements such as adding turn lanes or changes to traffic control,
etc. Those potential solutions will be brought forward into the Level 2
Evaluation. The Level 2 Evaluation criteria will be based on a previous study
that the City completed titled City of Fort Collins Arterial Intersection
Prioritization Study – March 2012. The same “Goals Tied to Community
Values” and corresponding “Measures” will be utilized, along with the already
established scoring system. Quantitative evaluations measures will again
include Crash Reduction, Capital Construction Costs, Right-of-Way,
Intersection Delay, Crash Cost and Delay Cost Reduction, and Benefit/Cost
Ratio. The qualitative evaluation measures will again include
Supports/Compliments other Public and/or Private Projects, Constructability,
Ability to Support Adjacent Land Use, Consistent with Multi-Modal Plans and
Standards, Pedestrian/Bicycle Crash Reduction, Supports Non-Auto
Transportation Improvements, Minimized Emissions, Changes to Freight or
Rail Safety and Mobility, and Potential for Outside Funding. Using these

criteria, each intersection will be scored and rated against each other using a
1 to 10 scale for each measure, as outlined in the original study.
2. Technical Report
a. A technical report summarizing the results of the Intersection Screening and
Evaluation will be completed. AECOM will produce a draft report for review and
approval by the City. Comments will be addressed and incorporated, and a final
version will be submitted.
D. Project Exclusions
The following are not included in this scope and their inclusion is subject to a change in scope,
schedule, and/or fee. All other engineering services not identified in this scope of work are excluded.
1. Public involvement and outreach was specifically excluded by the City for this update. Also
excluded are presentations to any Boards or outside agencies.
2. New traffic counts.
3. Project websites and/or media releases.
4. Design plans, specifications, and estimates (PS&Es). PS&Es for any project can be developed
with a change order.
5. Traffic signal warrant analysis.
