1 EXHIBIT "A"
i PROJECT(S) DESCRIPTION
1
i This project includes the design, engineering and construction of the North Atlantic Avenue
1 Streetscape Project in the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida.
1 The proposed scope of work includes but is not limited to the right-of-way acquisition, purchase
of professional engineering and design services, related permitting and administrative expenses,
i and construction services and materials for the completion of "complete streets" tasks along
1 North Atlantic Avenue from SR A 1 A northward to Port Canaveral (near George King
I Boulevard). Some of these tasks include the following:
I
i • Construct an 8-foot wide pedway along the western side of the roadway
1 • Construct a 5-foot wide sidewalk on the eastern side of the roadway
i
1 • Construct a storm water system (exfiltration piping) beneath the pedway for the northern
75% of the roadway
1 • Install solar-powered and/or LED lighting (improved safety)
I • Plant native vegetation "islands" along the roadway
1 • Install pedestrian benches and trash receptacles along the sidewalks
• Bus stops, utilizing prefabricated bus stop shelters
1 • Decorative pavement treatment at crosswalks and intersections
1
i Completion of these "complete streets" tasks will also meet several major objectives of the City's
,
i Vision Statement including that the City will be a "bike-able and walk-able and sustainable
1 coastal community that embraces the beach and riverside as its main amenities."
1
1
I
I Land use in the area is a mix of residential and commercial. The southern portion of the
1 streetscape project area consists mainly of commercial facilities (i.e., auto mechanic shops, strip
malls, etc.). The northern portion of the project area consists mainly of large, multi-family
i
1 buildings (i.e., condominiums and townhomes).
i
1 North Atlantic Avenue is a heavily-travelled roadway with significant truck and automobile
1
i traffic. With the exception of State Road A 1A, North Atlantic Avenue (approx. 1.1 miles in
i length) is the most-travelled north-south roadway within the City.
1
1 The estimated construction time to complete the "complete streets" tasks along North Atlantic
t Avenue is eighteen (18) months.
