What is the estimated cost of the total project? <br /> The preliminary reconnaissance-level cost estimate for widening and providing channelization of <br /> the northbound off-ramp and Glenwood Boulevard is $250,000. <br /> 6. What is the planned date of completion? <br /> It is anticipated that the improvements to Glenwood Boulevard will be needed between 2003 and <br /> 2007, but would be of benefit at any time. Constructing the improvements as early as possible <br /> will facilitate staging and minimize impacts to users.

Project <br /> improvements are planned for completion within one year from start of construction. <br /> B. ROAD IMPROVEMENTS DESCRIPTION -Describe in detail the public road <br /> improvements to be constructed for which County funding is being requested. <br /> Attach plan diagrams. <br /> Glenwood Boulevard is an approximately 22-foot wide asphalt roadway with approximately 6- <br /> foot wide gravel shoulders and open ditches on both sides of the existing roadway. The proposed <br /> project will widen the roadway to a 36-foot wide paved surface with 4-foot gravel shoulders and <br /> open ditches on both sides. Existing guardrail sections at the bridge ends and along the north side <br /> of the northbound freeway off-ramp and north side of 22nd Avenue will be reconstructed. <br /> 1. What is the estimated cost of the road improvements? $ $250,000 <br /> How was this estimate determined? <br /> The estimated cost for the Glenwood Boulevard improvements is $250,000. A detailed cost <br /> estimate is included in the attached Appendix B. <br /> The project estimate was developed using unit costs from past projects of a similar nature. Those <br /> unit costs were then applied to the current project quantities to arrive at the preliminary project <br /> cost estimate. The preliminary cost estimate assumes a figure of 15 percent of the estimated <br /> construction costs for the design and construction engineering as well as a 10 percent <br /> contingency. <br /> 2. What is the amount of County funds being requested? $ $200,000 <br /> The City of Eugene is requesting County funds in the amount of $200,000 for widening and <br /> <br /> providing channelization of the northbound off-ramp and Glenwood Boulevard at the Judkins <br /> Point Interchange. Together with $50,000 in City funds, this will result in a project of $250,000. <br /> -5- <br /> <br />
