Preparation of the plans for installation of traffic signals at this location has been commenced. The existing traffic signals on Mill Street, at Pepper Avenue and Eucalyptus Avenue, are interconnected in order to provide progressive movement of traffic. We feel that it would be advantageous for the new signals to be interconnected with the two existing signals. A contract has recently been awarded for the improvement of the south side of Hill Street, from Meridian Avenue to a point about 550 feet east of Pepper Avenue. The conduit for the traffic signal interconnect cable could be installed at a lesser price under this contract, than the future one for installation of traffic signals. The Contractor was accordingly requested to submit a price quote for installation of conduit for the traffic signal interconnect. A price quote of $9,700 was provided in response to this request, which equates to about $6.90 per foot. We have received this quote and found that it compares very favorably with the normal price of about $10.00 per foot. The total estimated project cost included an amount of $15,560.70 for contingencies which can be used to finance the cost of this extra work. We recommend that installation of the traffic signal conduit be authorized. 5-24-95 75-0264
