Included as part of the contract, underground exploration work (potholing) and the procurement of traffic signal poles were expedited, as the first order of work, due to the forecasted, long lead time of six to eight months. This year's project consisted of the following three locations: • Irvine Avenue at University Drive • Superior Avenue at Hospital Road • San Miguel Drive at Port Ramsey Place Restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic were occurring just as the project commenced and had a significant impact on the procession of the work. Lead times for much of the equipment were exacerbated by such issues as severe chip shortages, supply chain challenges and contractor staff illnesses. Considering the long lead time for materials and uncertainty related to the pandemic, Public Works included underground exploration and traffic signal pole procurement work for the southbound Newport Boulevard and 28th Street intersection. This traffic signal installation is included in the Fire Station 2 project. The work was added to ensure that the traffic signal was operational prior to completion of the new fire station. The contracted work has now been completed to the satisfaction of the Public Works Department. A summary of the construction cost is as follows: Original Bid Amount: $ 893,244.00 Actual Cost of Bid Items Constructed: $ 872,927.00 Project Change Orders $ 61,015.75 Fire Station 2 Change Orders $ 47,154.00 Final Contract Cost: $ 981,096.75 The final contract cost of $981,096.75 is approximately 9.8% higher than the original bid amount. Additional work was required via contract change orders to complete the project. Additional potholing was needed due to unmarked utility conflicts, three power outages through Southern California Edison (SCE) necessitated the removal and installation of traffic signal poles near SCE facilities, and conduit runs needed realignment to avoid an antiquated shallow storm drain culvert. Additional work related to the new, southbound Newport Boulevard and 28th Street traffic signal was included to expedite delivery of materials. This work accounted for $47,154.00 of the contract change orders. To fund this work, Public Works requested, and the City Manager approved, an increase of the project contingency allowance from 10% to 15.2°/x. Funds for this work are included in the approved Fire Station 2 construction budget. 15-2 FY2019-20 Traffic Signal Rehabilitation Project - Notice of Completion for Contract No. 7818-1 (20T01) November 16, 2021 Page 3 A summary of the project schedule milestones is as follows: Estimated Start of Construction per Annual Baseline Schedule March 24, 2020 Actual Start of Construction Per Notice to Proceed March 24, 2020 Extended Contract Completion Date Inclusive of Extra Work October 1, 2021 Actual Substantial Construction Completion Date October 1, 2021 The project was suspended once the traffic signal pole and cabinet order were placed.
