DESCRIPTION: In November, 1990, the City Council directed Staff to prepare a report regarding the estimated cost of engineering and construction for modifying the Dublin Blvd./Silvergate Drive intersection to a normal "T" configuration. Currently, most of the traffic travels between Dublin Blvd. east of Silvergate Drive and Silvergate Drive. This pattern will change in the future due to development in the west, which will also require the widening of Dublin Blvd. from Hansen Drive to 400' west of Silvergate. The original construction estimate for the intersection work was $230,000 to put in part of the ultimate improvements. The project has been reduced during design to provide a much less expensive interim solution which will provide the same result. The ultimate intersection configuration will then be done with the widening of Dublin Blvd. at a future time. Most of the work in this interim phase will be able to be incorporated into Phase II work. This work will be paid for by developer contributions in the future; however, the interim work will be done with City funds as a loan to the reimbursement account. At the meeting of September 23, 1991, the Council approved the Agreement with the engineering firm of Bissell and Karn to design both the Dublin/Silvergate intersection modification and the Dublin Blvd. widening between Silvergate Drive and Hansen Drive. The intersection design has been completed and the project can now go out to bid. The design modifications include removal of the existing island and striping, and the installation of new asphalt berms, signing, and striping to reconfigure the intersection. It would require westbound Dublin Blvd. traffic to stop at Silver- gate Drive prior to turning north on Silvergate Drive, thus slowing this traffic movement. It is, therefore, recommended that the City Council authorize Staff to advertise for bids for Contract 92-04, Dublin Blvd./Silvergate Drive Modifications, Phase I. ITEM NO.
