CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Subject:
Resolution approving Consultant Services Agreements with the firms ofKOA Corporation, RBF
Consulting, Krueper Engineering and TEP, Inc. to provide On-Call Traffic Engineering Services.
Background:
The Traffic Engineering Section is an organizational unit within the Department of Public Works
with a staff consisting of one traffic operations systems analyst and one traffic engineering
associate. The traffic section reviews all development plans for traffic-related issues, reviews
and comments on traffic impact analyses, calculates traffic fees, determines needs for traffic
studies, operates traffic models, determines traffic signal timing, studies accidents and
recommends solutions. The traffic section also prepares Federal/State aid transportation-related
funding applications on behalf of the City. Additionally, the section evaluates the need for
crossing guards, stop signs, time limit parking, painted curbs and staffs the traffic safety
committee.
To aCGommodate the workload, it is necessary to retain outside consultants to supplement in-
house staff. On August 18, 2008, agreements with the firms of Willdan and TEP, Inc. were
approved for On-Call Traffic Engineering support, which expired on June 30, 2010. On May 17,
2010, staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) to a total of 2 I consultants experienced in
Traffic Engineering. On June 22, 2010, proposals were received from 12 of these firms.
A selection committee consisting of management level staff reviewed the proposals and the five
firms of KOA Corporation, RBF Consulting, Krueper Engineering, WiIldan and TEP, Inc. were
invited to present their proposals to the selection panel on August 25,2010, Using the approved
consultant selection process, the panel determined that the firms of KOA Corporation, RBF
Consulting, Krueper Engineering and TEP, Inc. demonstrated the best capability to provide On-
Call Traffic Engineering Support to the City.
Staff recommends that the total amount of the budget for the agreements be set at $ I 10,000.
Staff plans to use $60,000 of that amount to design CIP projects. The balance of $50,000 will be
used for non-CIP related traffic engineering that will be funded by the general operating budget.
In order to control costs, the firms will be required to submit a fee proposal when requested to
design a CIP project. The fee will be charged against the account number for the specific CIP
project. The consultants will only be used when the City Engineer determines that in-house staff
is not available or lacks expertise to perform the work. There is no guarantee of a minimum
amount of work to any of the consultants.
The proposed agreements will expire on June 30, 2011, unless earlier terminated. Subject to
agreement of the parties in writing, the agreements may be administratively extended by the City
Engineer for a maximum of one additional year.

Develop/Implement Traffic Signal Timing Plans along 5 Major Arterials, Moreno Valley,
California. KOA was retained by the City of Moreno Valley to develop and implement timing plans for the
48 existing signals along Perris Boulevard, Lasselle Street, Heacock Street, Frederick Street, and Ironwood
Avenue due to the traffic volumes and patterns that have changed since the last retiming (about 5 years
ago). The City of Moreno Valley currently operates a Traconet Master Traffic Control System located on a
desktop personal computer in City Hall. The Traconet system has the capability of monitoring traffic flows
and selecting an appropriate pre-designed timing plan from a database of timing plans, as well as the
controllers having the capability of refining phase timings using a real time split monitor that can shift time
from lightly used phases to more heavily used phases. For this project, the City has indicated an intention
to utilize the traffic responsive timing features of the Traconet system. This approach has promise to
provide signal timing plans that are more sensitive to actual traffic conditions, resulting in more optimum
timing. Reference: Mr. A/an Kashe(l, Senior Engineer, City of Moreno Valley, /4/77 Frederick Street, Moreno
Valley, CA 92552, (95/) 413-3/45.
Three Intersections and 'C' Street Improvement for the City of Colton. KOA is under contract
to provide design services to the City of Colton for three intersections. The design includes improving the
intersections to comply with ADA standards and signalizing the following three intersections:
· La Cadena Drive / Rancho Avenue
· Agua Mansa Road / Rancho Avenue
· Colton Cement Plant Road / Rancho Avenue
Additionally, 'C' Street will be widened to connect the previously widened sections on both sides. This will
be needed for the south side of the street serving the eastbound traffic. The project requires constructing
new sidewalks and improving the driveway access to local properties. Right of way will be required on this
project including coordination with property owners. KOA provided bid and construction phase support
for these projects. Reference: Mr. Victor Ortiz, Project Manager, City of Colton, Corporate Yard, /60 S. 10m St.,

Strategic Plan for Relieving Traffic Congestion and Signal Synchronization in the City of
Rancho Cucamonga, California. KOA was selected by the City to address multiple areas of concern
related to traffic operations and safety in the city. The project consisted of three parts:
I
i
I
Part I, Traffic Signal System Study. The Traffic Signal System Study included an inventory of all of the
City's existing traffic signal controllers and signal interconnect equipment. KOA prepared a map of all existing
and programmed underground signal interconnect conduit and determined how many on-street master
controllers will be needed at build out and recommended locations for these controllers. KOA examined the
City's existing Econolite Aries monitoring system, and made recommendations for the City's future needs.
KOA recommended an interconnect method for each existing and future traffic signal, Le., fiber optic, copper
wire, wireless, or telephone; as well as, recommended the combination of signals into coordination systems.
KOA also evaluated the appropriateness and cost effectiveness of underground conduit, wireless, or
telephone interconnect methods for use in the City.
I
I
I
Part 2, Strategic Plan of Traffic Congestion. This part of the scope was further divided into three
categories. In the first category, KOA updated the existing safe route to school (SR2S) map for the City. This
included 22 elementary schools, 9 junior high schools, and -4 high schools. The maps
included each school's boundary for walking and busing. KOA recommended a policy for
school crossing guards, stop sign protected school crossings, and signalized school
crossings. KOA examined traffic congestion and pedestrian safety around schools, and
recommended relevant traffic safety practices. In the second category, KOA examined
the intrusion of parked cars from schools, parks, and apartment complexes into
residential neighborhoods, and recommended appropriate mitigation practices. KOA
discussed the pros and cons of parking permit programs. In the third category, KOA
developed traffic calming strategies for the City; examined speeding traffic on residential
streets and recommended appropriate traffic calming practices; and created a Neighborhood Traffic
Management Program "NTMP Toolbox" of traffic calming devices and methods to assist the City, which
included the creation of a training manual, handbook, logo, and traffic calming design alternatives. The final
report will be provided in electronic format and posted on the City's web page.
I
I
I
I
I
Part 3, Red Hill Traffic Study. The residents of the Red Hill area of Rancho Cucamonga expressed
concerns about cut-through traffic using Alta Cuesta and Red Hill Country Club Drive as a short cut to get
from Base Line Road to Foothill Boulevard. KOA studied the traffic situation in the Red Hill area and worked

City of Long Beach Short Range Bicycle Program Administration, Long Beach, California. The
City of Long Beach has established a goal of becoming one of the leading bicycle- friendly communities in
California. The vision includes provision of unique or rare bikeway applications. KOA and our non-
motorized transportation specialist, Rock Miller, have served in
numerous key roles for this effort. We are currently providing
justification, background information, and design for an innovative
protected bikeway facility to be provided along Broadway and
Third Street; two important downtown one-way streets. In
addition, we are using ArcGIS program to plan the exact locations
of the signs in the City's GIS database and to expand the City's
signage inventory. The project is modeled after an application along
9th Avenue in New York City that is not found elsewhere in the
U.S. We are also providing preliminary planning and design for a
network of bicycle boulevards that will run for long distances parallel to important heavily used through
arterials such as 7th Street and Pacific Coast Highway; these streets that do not provide adequate space for
inexperienced or recreational cyclists. The bicycle boulevards will feature protected crossings at all major
intersections, elimination of unnecessary stop signs at lesser streets, and
traffic calming features to produce positive benefits for automobile
traffic. The facilities are modeled after similar treatments found in Palo
Alto, Berkeley, and Portland that have received strong reviews by
residents and cyclists. KOA is the designer for all facilities discussed
above, together with over ten miles of bike lanes now under
construction. We also lead public meetings and workshops to discuss
and refine planned facilities. KOA participates in several City staff and
volunteer committees that advocate bicycle facilities and determine the
priorities for the next set of improvements. Many City Staff members participate on the committees,
including cycling enthusiasts that are current Council members, the City Manager, key department heads,
and other involved departments. References: Ms. Sumire Gant, Bikeway Program Coordinator, City of Long

After a project is identified by the City to be performed by KOA under this agreement, City staff will
prepare a Task Order and deliver it to KOA for review and signature. KOA will sign and return the Task
Order, along with the QA/QC plan for that Task Order to the City. The Task Order will identify the
scope of services, expected results, and project deliverables. Time/Cost estimate for each Task Order will
be included in the Quality Assurance/Quality Control Plan that KOA will submit to the department after
receipt of each Task Order. Additionally, after obtaining the call for request from the City, we will quickly
assess our resource commitments and identify the most qualified Project Manager. In most instances, Mr.
Rock Miller will be able to take on the role of Project Manager. We will then assess and assign the
appropriate engineers, planners, and/or technical staff from our large staff pool available to us.
I
I
KOA key staff, including Mr, Miller, would be available to the City as needed to facilitate public meetings,
make presentations to the Councilor Commissions, and handle issues that require experience in both

Traffic Impact Analysis
Chino Unified School District
Krueper Engineering prepared a comprehensive traffic impact analysis for
the proposed construction of Chino Hills High School on a 44-acre site in
the City of Chino Hills, California. The study was undertaken to determine
the levels of increased traffic that would be generated by the new school,
and how the increased traffic would impact existing infrastructure. KE&A
presented an account of existing deficiencies in the surrounding roadway
network, as well as measures to mitigate these deficiencies and maintain
acceptable levels of service under future conditions. The study also
addressed the development of pedestrian and bicycle facilities and the
future school's impact upon existing pedestrian traffic.

commencement of work. The PAF describes the assignment, and provides a budget and
schedule for its completion.

expenditures for the traffic services provided by TEP. A sample of the PAF is enclosed with
this proposal.

Our approach to project delivery emphasizes quality control. After TEP has been engaged to
represent the City, a kickoff meeting will be held with city representatives to discuss major
issues. In addition, periodic meetings will be held with city staff to review TEP's performance,
which will be evaluated on the following factors:
1. Maintain positive working relationships with all project participants including
representatives of governmental agencies, other consultants, the development
community and city representatives.
