DISCUSSION:
In 2022, after soliciting design proposals, city staff solicited the services of Theorem Design Group, (TDG) for design services for the Windermere Street Bridge Replacement Project. The project and the associated consultant professional services were divided into two phases allowing the preliminary design of the structure and preparation of the structural selection report for CDOT review.
In March of 2023, additional funding was approved in Amendment No. 1 which allowed for the project to head towards final design. The project team encountered additional challenges with CDOT Historic Preservation, Utility conflicts, licensing, and ownership changes within the canal.
With most of the above-mentioned conflicts resolved, and a clear path forward, the second amendment is needed to provide TDG with additional scope, fee, and time to complete the design and associated tasks for the bridge replacement. If council approves this amendment, staff and the TDG team can complete the design process for the bridge replacement, with anticipated completion by the fall of 2025. Construction is anticipated to start in early 2026.
