DBSCRIPTION: This year's Annual overlay Program consists of
reconstructing Village parkway between Kimball Avenue and Amador Valley Blvd., both
northbound and southbound lanes.
In a normal overlay, failed areas are dug out and repaired and then pavement
reinforcing fabric and 1 1/2 inches of asphalt paving are placed over the entire
surface. Apparently, Alameda county performed at least two overlays on Village
Parkway, which has resulted in a higher-than-usual crown. The street also needs
extensive repair due to numerous failed asphalt areas which have reflected up
through the previous overlays. Because of these existing conditions, the normal
overlay process cannot effectively be used. Raising the crown another 1 1/2 inches
as in a normal overlay would cause further drainage problems, and unrepaired deep
asphalt failures would continue to deteriorate the surface.
Therefore, Staff has prepared the contract to include the reconstruction of the road
pavement by removing 4 inches of asphalt concrete from the outside lanes and a
minimum of 6 inches from the center (crown) of the roadway. The entire surface will
then be repaved with reinforcing fabric and 4 inches of asphalt, thereby lowering
the crown a minimum of 2 inches.
The project has been approved for grant funds from the State-Local Transportation
Partnership Program (SB300 gas tax). The bid package has been set up for alternate
bids as follows:
1)
Reconstruction of Village Parkway from Amador Valley
Blvd. to Kimball Avenue.
(estimate $462,300)
2)
Reconstruction of Village Parkway from Tamarack Drive
to Kimball Avenue and the repair of failures between
Amador Valley Blvd. and Tamarack Drive.
(estimate $337,800)
The bidding of alternates allows the City to easily reduce the scope of work if the
bids come in over budget, or if the City Council elects to reduce the size of this
project.
