has an existing pond just north of the driveway to be realigned. If necessary, this pond could be modified to accommodate additional runoff. Utility coordination will be applicable particularly with respect to the placement of the signal poles and any drainage structures. Coordination with the Florida Department of Transportation will be required for changes to the current connections to US 17/92. The Phase II fee is (not to exceed) $110,146.16. Phase II will not be authorized unless a signal is warranted from the Phase I effort. 2.01 General Scope of Services The anticipated work effort for each phase is as follows: Phase I Work Effort - Signal Warrant Study · 24-hour approach counts · 8-hour turning movement counts · Review of existing conditions · Collision Summary · Collision Diagram · Qualitative Assessment · Line of Sight Analysis · Stop-Delay Studies · Warrant Analysis · Recommendations · Benefit/Cost Analysis · Conceptual Improvement Sketch Preliminary field review of the intersection, conversations with FDOT, and review of the previous study performed at this intersection indicate that the potential for this intersection (under existing conditions) meeting the warrants for signalization is Iow. However, the previous study only evaluated Plumosa Avenue and did not consider the potential re-alignment with the Home Depot driveway. In addition to the 8 hour turning movement counts at the intersection, TEl will also perform turning movement counts at Button Road. This will allow for an accurate measurement of the current travel patterns so traffic volumes can be estimated, as a re-aligned intersection. Also included in the fee proposal is a future analysis of the intersection. TEl will review historical traffic growth in the area and any studies that are available to determine the most appropriate growth factor to apply to this intersection. This growth factor will be applied to existing traffic volumes and a future signal warrant analysis will be performed. The estimated level of effort is shown in Table 1, attached. Ph,ase II Work Effort - Construction Documents and Permittinq Preparation of the construction documents will require work effort from TEl and several subconsuJtants providing survey, environmental, geotechnical and structural design services. The estimated level of effort is shown in Table 2, attached.
