1 1.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW The State of Minnesota (State) has identified the need for the replacement of Bridge 5308, a railroad bridge that carries the Canadian Pacific Railroad (CP Rail) over Trunk Highway (TH) 100 in Hennepin County. The new bridge has been assigned as Bridge Number This Contract will include: Professional engineering design services for preliminary and final design of Bridge 27303; Subsurface investigations and geotechnical analysis and reporting; Design of all track work, including the associated shoo-fly track alignment onto the adjacent existing Bridge 5309 to serve as a temporary shoo-fly bypass bridge, and preliminary bridge plans for Bridge 5309; Development of an acceptable staging scheme including design of vertical shoring/sheet piling as necessary to stabilize the temporary shoo-fly alignment to enable construction of the new bridge abutments of Bridge and removal of existing bridge The associated State Project Number (S.P.) is The anticipated letting date for the bridge portion of the TH 100 expansion project is May This project is a result of State proposing to widen the existing roadway from the existing substandard geometric conditions in accordance with the new proposed Trunk Highway (TH) 100 layout, which includes three standard 12 lanes, shoulders, adjacent acceleration/deceleration lanes, and appropriate clear zone set back to the face of the new proposed abutments. Bridge will be designed as a single-track, 2-span thru-girder type bridge, and provide minimum vertical clearance of 16-4 with inclusion of a sacrificial fascia beam, or 17-4 without a sacrificial fascia beam, over the new proposed TH100 alignment. During State s project development phase, depth of structure investigations were explored in conjunction with the proposed TH 100 profile grades, existing CP Rail elevations, and the required span layout for proposed Bridge This resulted in a determination that a thru-girder type bridge would be required to achieve the required vertical clearance. For thru-girder type bridges, it is desirable to achieve 17-4 vertical clearance, or provide a sacrificial fascia beam to protect the main load carrying girders from potential traffic impact. This Contract includes further design of track work including development of a new profile grade for CP Rail, leading to an acceptable minimum profile grade raise of the existing tracks. A combination of a slight track profile grade raise will be further explored in conjunction with the proposed TH100 profile grade in consideration of the need for a sacrificial fascia beam. Concept development of track work and shoo-fly layout, along with proposed track profile grades will precede development of Preliminary Bridge Plans. Track work development will require consideration of survey information from existing Bridge 5308 and Bridge 5309 in development of the shoo-fly alignment and profile grade, and final alignment and profile grade for Bridge 27303, including any track signalization requirements yet to be determined by CP Rail. Once the track work is approved by CP Rail, Preliminary Bridge Plans for both Bridge and Bridge 5309 will be completed. In consideration of utilizing Bridge 5309 as a temporary shoo-fly bridge, inspections were completed in August 2012 along with analysis and load ratings, as documented in the Canadian Pacific Railway over TH100 Bridge Evaluation Final Report, October 5, Track work and preliminary bridge plans for Bridge 5309 will be developed as part of this Contract will be incorporated into a separate - 1 -

2 Final Plan for Bridge 5309 (plan set preparation for Bridge 5309 will be completed under a separate contract). Metro District personnel will develop roadway plans concurrently with the development of the preliminary and final bridge plans, based on Staff Approved Layout that will be made available to the consultant. 2.0 PROJECT COORDINATION 2.1 Contract Administration State will provide a Project Manager to give direction to Contractor s activities. It will be the responsibility of State s Project Manager to receive the work produced by Contractor, review the work for compliance with contract requirements, and to recommend payment for such work. Contractor will conduct the administration of the project, which includes communication with State, invoicing, supplemental agreements, cost and schedule updates, billing preparation, application of quality assurance plan, and other non-technical work. Contractor will provide regular project updates to State s Project Manager with regard to the status of the project schedule and budget. State will establish a Project Wise directory for large file transfers. Contractor will input electronic files of working documents, plans, etc. as the project progresses toward completion. Contractor will create and maintain a ftp site for the project. Parties will mutually agree upon a method for electronic document transfer that is convenient and useable by all parties. No changes in Contractor project management or lead design personnel will be made without written notice to State. State will notify Contractor of any changes to State s project management personnel. State anticipates that the further project coordination efforts will be required in determination of an acceptable profile grade for the proposed CP Rail alignment and shoo-fly bridge alignment. Coordination of this effort will be completed with the State s Preliminary Bridge Plans Engineer through completion of the Preliminary Bridge Plans. The State will also designate a Project Manager from MnDOT Bridge Office Final Design Section for project review and coordination with development of Final Plans. 2.2 Quality Management Plan (QMP) Contractor will submit a project specific Quality Management Plan to State within five days of Notice to Proceed with contracted services. The QMP must specify how Contractor will perform Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) activities throughout the duration of the project to ensure delivery of a quality product in a timely manner that conforms to established contract requirements. Design and Plan Sheet Check Contractor is responsible for the completeness and accuracy of its work. Design calculations and plan sheets must be independently checked and reconciled prior to submittal. Review comments from State on Contractor s various plan review submittals does not relieve Contractor of liability for an inaccurate or incomplete bridge design or plan. Computer Programs All computer programs and/or spreadsheets utilized by Contractor must be verified by Contractor s in-house Quality Assurance Program

3 Quality Assurance Verification Contractor s Project Manager or Quality Assurance Manager will review the entire plan design and production process to ensure the completeness and adequacy of the work, and conformance with Contractor s QA procedures. 2.3 Railroad Coordination Initial coordination of all railroad meetings and correspondence will be conducted by State s Rail Administration Project Manager, who will serve as the single point of contact with CP Rail. The Contractor will not contact CP Rail directly unless authorized by State s Railroad Agreements Administrator. Prior to development of the thru-girder type bridge preliminary plans, the Contactor will explore depth of structure requirements for a 2-span thru-girder type structure, preliminary track alignment, and the resulting profile grade raise requirement for the tracks to obtain 16-4 vertical clearance over the proposed TH 100 alignment provided by State. A coordination effort is anticipated with CP Rail to obtain review and approval of this bridge type based on consideration of required grade raise, and the ability of the CP Rail to achieve this clearance with minimal grade adjustment. Contractor will investigate the required track work and profile grade raise requirements necessary to achieve 17-4 of vertical clearance of the proposed TH 100 alignment provide by the State. These initial track alignments and profile grade raise implications will be developed prior to the initial CP Rail coordination meeting so that consideration of use of a sacrificial beam can be explored together with track grade raise requirements and tie-in considerations. Development of Preliminary Bridge Plans will not commence until the profile grade, bridge type, and determination of the need for a sacrificial beam have been reviewed and determined, based on continued project development provided by Contractor and approved by State. Approval and final selection of bridge type is a critical component of the project schedule and Contractor must prepare all materials necessary for this evaluation and coordination meeting with Canadian Pacific Railroad. State will conduct all railroad coordination efforts early in the project development phase, and throughout project development. Contractor will follow State and AREMA processes for coordination efforts. Railroad coordination meetings will be scheduled as required to coordinate the railroad bridge design and ensure timely CP Rail reviews and approval of the design. Railroad coordination meetings will coincide with monthly project meetings. Contractor is responsible for ensuring that CP Rail s coordination process aligns with State s project delivery schedule. Contractor will coordinate with the Rail Administration Project Manager and CP Rail to establish a communication process for the project. Contractor will schedule and facilitate meetings at key phases of the design process and will include the Rail Administration Project Manager, State s Project Manager, State s Roadway Project Manager, and CP Rail personnel as coordinated by State. 2.4 Project Meetings Contractor will facilitate a minimum of eight monthly project meetings with State s Project Manager, State s Rail Administration Project Manager, CP Rail project management personnel - 3 -
