3 EXHIBIT A SCOPE OF SERVICES DISTRICTWIDE TRAFFIC SIGNAL RETIMING I. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS The purpose of this contract is to provide the DEPARTMENT with professional services for conducting needed traffic signal retiming studies for arterials and isolated intersections. The purpose of the Scope of Services is to describe the scope of work and responsibilities of the CONSULTANT and the DEPARTMENT. Signal systems will be retimed for both weekday and weekend operation, with the number of timing patterns determined by the data collection effort and approved by the DEPARTMENT. The DEPARTMENT may require additional timing patterns based upon special circumstances such as traffic signals at or near school entrances, traffic signals on evacuation routes and traffic signals at or near interstate ramps. In addition, the DEPARTMENT may require additional timing patterns to support and or implement certain elements of Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSM&O), including timing patterns for Advanced Traffic Management Systems (ATMS), Time-Based Coordinated (TBC), adaptive, and/or traffic responsive systems. A major objective of this contract is to obtain study results as expeditiously as possible while maintaining a high degree of thoroughness and professionalism. Independent study types have been identified and tasks for each have been specified. For the purpose of this contract, the following definitions apply: A traffic control timing pattern is a set of cycle lengths, splits, offsets and associated timing parameters for an arterial system that is developed in consideration of a particular traffic condition or time-of-day (TOD) period, such as AM peak, PM peak, off-peak, weekend, etc. An arterial system is a group of signalized intersections which are coordinated in order to provide progressive traffic flow along a particular corridor. Software tools (i.e.: SYNCHRO, SimTraffic, Tru-Traffic, or alternative software products approved by the DEPARTMENT) shall be used with the following restrictions: The CONSULTANT shall propose for approval by the DEPARTMENT minimum and maximum cycle lengths and increments between cycle lengths to be analyzed. A-1

4 Average free flow speed or travel time shall be recommended by the CONSULTANT and approved by the DEPARTMENT. A. Issuance of Task Work Order Authorizations Authorization to perform one or more of the tasks described in this Scope of Services shall be conveyed to the CONSULTANT through a written Task Work Order issued by the DEPARTMENT. The Task Work Order shall specify the type of study to be conducted, the tasks required, the locations to be included, and the period of performance. Each Task Work Order issued by the DEPARTMENT shall serve as formal notice to proceed, effective upon issuance of the Task Work Order. B. Task Work Order Management The CONSULTANT shall designate a Project Manager that will be accountable for all project related issues (scheduling, invoicing, technical deliverables and meetings.) The CONSULTANT Project Manager shall be a licensed Professional Engineer in the state of Florida. The CONSULTANT Project Manager will submit an electronic draft Task Work Order to the DEPARTMENT Project Manager for review.
