SUBMITTED BY: J~ Dunnuck, Public Services Administrator Date: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS AT SR 84(DAVIS BOULEVARD) AND CR 951 (COLLIER BOULEVARD) OBJECTIVE: To provide a briefing on the status of the proposed intersection improvements at SR 84 and CR 951. CONSIDERATIONS: This project includes widening and improvements to the intersection of Davis Boulevard (S.R. 84) and Collier Boulevard (C.R. 951) (Attachment No. 1). The improvements include the following major items of work: Addition of a dual northbound to westbound left turn lane from CR 951 to SR 84 and an increase in length of the existing and new lanes. · Addition of a dual southbound to westbound right turn lane from CR 951 to SR 84. · Addition of a dedicated eastbound to southbound right turn lane from SR 84 to CR 951. · Lengthening of the existing dual eastbound to northbound left turn lanes from SR 84 to CR 951. · Median modifications along Davis Boulevard, including a raised traffic separator, to facilitate traffic flow and to minimize vehicle conflicts in the vicinity of the intersection. · Drainage improvements consistent with the added pavement. · Traffic signal modifications to provide adjustments for the new lanes. We must wait until the FDOT FY 2003/2004 begins before awarding the construction contract. This is because of the use of FDOT funds not programmed until FY 2003/2004. We plan to start construction in early July of this year. The construction is estimt/ted to be complete on or befOre November 1, 2003. FISCAL IMPACT: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will fund most of this project. A Local Agency Agreement (LAP) is being created to use Urban Attributable Dollars in the FDOT FY 2003/2004 Work Program in the amount of $890,000.00. The County will also enter into an Advanced Reimbursement Agreement with the FDOT to use funds from the Davis Boulevard Resurfacing project in the amount of $190,000.00. The County will be responsible for approximately $240,000.00 of the total cost of about $1.32 million. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This area was a portion of one of the three areas placed under moratorium by the Board of County Commissioners earlier this year. The proposed intersection improvements will aid in restoring the roadway segment to an acceptable level of service and permit the Board to rescind the moratorium for this segment.
