CITY OF ISSAQUAH REQUEST FOR STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

The City of Issaquah is soliciting Statements of Qualifications for Construction Management Services related to major road and bridge projects currently under design and nearing the construction phase. These projects are: 

East Lake Sammamish Parkway Improvements: The project is approximately 0.5 miles long and will widen East Lake Sammamish Parkway to the west by adding a south bound travel lane, bicycle lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and landscaping. It also includes the relocation of overhead power, under-grounding of power, other utility work, and traffic signal modifications at the intersections of Black Nugget Rd and at SE 62nd Street, street illumination, and off site stormwater and wetland mitigation work. This project currently has Federal, State, and local funds involved and the City is in the process of acquiring the necessary right-of-way in anticipation of construction beginning in the summer of 2015. For this project, the City is looking for a firm to perform construction management services including but not limited to inspections, pay estimates, record keeping, managing the construction contract while reporting and coordinating with City staff to ensure quality control and compliance with all contract documents and the funding sources.



SE 62nd Street Widening and Extension: The project has four major sections that have specific challenges. These are: o The re-alignment and widening of the existing SE 62nd Street from East Lake Sammamish Parkway to its intersection with 4th Ave NW and 221st Ave SE where a roundabout intersection is planned. This section of the project involves a grade separated crossing of the King County East Lake Sammamish Trail. o SE 62nd Street will be extended westward from the roundabout west; there will be a bridge approximately 1000 feet long spanning the North Fork and Main Stem of Issaquah Creek, the flood plain, and wetlands and their buffers. The bridge is planned as a two-lane facility with a sidewalk on the north side and is anticipated to be supported by driven piles. Other than the bridge on the east side of Issaquah Creek, the existing Pickering multipurpose trail will be widened from its current width (8 - 10 feet) to 12 feet. o From the west end of the bridge to the intersection of Lake Drive the roadway is planned as a three lane facility with curb, gutter, sidewalk, and landscaping. A roundabout is planned at the intersection of the extension of SE 62nd Street and Lake Drive. o Lake Drive will be improved between the intersection of SE 62nd and 10th Avenue NW. This section will be widened to include bicycle lanes along

both sides and have continuous sidewalk and landscaping in accordance with City standards for this roadway. Elements of the project also include wetland mitigation, street illumination, wet and dry utilities, and stormwater mitigation. In total the project is approximately 1 mile long. The project has State TIB and Department of Commerce funding as well as City and private funding. The design and construction of the SE 62nd and its extension, and Lake Drive is required to be closely coordinated with Costco Corporation. The design and environmental permitting is expected to continue from its current state in 1st quarter 2015 and take 18 – 24 months to complete with construction beginning in 2017. For this project the City is looking for a firm to perform construction management services including but not limited to design oversight, inspections, pay estimates, record keeping, managing the construction contract while reporting and coordinating with City staff to ensure quality control and compliance with all contract documents and the funding sources. NW Dogwood Bridge Replacement: This project involves the replacement of the existing NW Dogwood Bridge.
