FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The proposed amendment includes an additional $600,000, bringing the total amount of

additional costs are reimbursable from project grant funding from Measure B

DESCRIPTION:
On May 17, 2016, the City of Dublin entered into an Agreement with S&C Engineers,
Inc. to perform construction management, material testing, and inspection services for
Dougherty Road Improvements, CIP No. ST0911. Due to an extension in the duration of
the project construction, Staff is recommending an amendment to the agreement with
S&C Engineers, Inc. to extend the term to June 30, 2019. The proposed amendment
provides for additional hours for construction management, material testing, and
inspection services necessary to complete the project.
Project Background and Status: The Dougherty Road Improvements pr oject is currently
under construction. The project improvements will address traffic congestion and multi -
modal circulation issues for commuters traveling Dougherty Road, including improved
access to the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station. The improvements h ave been long-

planned. The Circulation Element of the City’s General Plan (adopted 1985) called for
the expansion of Dougherty Road to a six-lane arterial. Subsequent updates to the
Circulation Element called for the addition of on -street (“Class II”) bicycle lanes to the
entire length of Dougherty Road.
The project provides for the widening of Dougherty Road from 4 lanes to 6 lanes
between Sierra Lane and the Northern City limits. The work includes the installation of
a new class II bike lanes; 1.4 m iles of Bike/Pedestrian pathway; landscaped median
islands; storm drainage improvements; new curb, gutter, sidewalk, bus stops,
bioretention areas and landscaping along the easterly side of the existing roadway. A
rubberized asphalt overlay and new paveme nt markings the entire width of the roadway
from Dublin Blvd. to the Northern City Limits, curb ramp replacements to comply with
the new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and traffic signal modifications to 5
intersections.
The contractor has completed the installation of a majority of the underground utilities
along the project, installation of the new roadway section and Bike/Pedestrian pathway
for the lane expansion along the easterly curb line and relocated traffic signal to
accommodate the widening. At this point, the contractor is approximately 75% complete
with the project. The project has experienced some significant scheduling impacts due
to adverse weather and unforeseen conditions related to utilities and varying site
conditions unknown at the time of project design. The balance of the improvements will
be constructed by this summer and include median islands, planting, repair of failed
roadway sections, traffic signal upgrades, the final lift of rubberized asphalt and
pavement delineation. The City is working with the contractor to substantially complete
the project in summer.
