THAT Report EGD-05-02 be received; and 2. THAT a copy of this report be provided to Bill Humber of the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association. Submitted by: _~~ A.S. Cannella, C.E.T. Director of Engineering Services Reviewed bYO' ~~ Franklin Wu Chief Administrative Officer RDB*ASC*ce 01/14/2002 721 , ~ , . REPORT NO.: EGD-OS-02 PAGE 2 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 On December 5,2001 a Public Information Workshop was held in Council Chambers from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. to present the public with preliminary design drawings for the proposed reconstruction of 1) Concession Street from 30m northeast of Wellington Street to 30m west of Liberty Street and 2) Elgin Street from Horsey Street to the CPR Bridge. Advertising in the local newspaper provided notice of the information workshop. Twenty-two people signed the register and/or submitted comment sheets at the information workshop. A copy of the register and individual comment sheets are provided as Attachment No.1. 1.2 A previous public information workshop was held on August 8, 2001, at which preliminary design concepts were presented. The concepts were based on the design guidelines outlined in the "Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Streetscape and Infrastructure Implementation Plan" dated March 2001. Feedback from the August 8th workshop was taken into consideration while preparing the preliminary design drawings for Concession Street and Elgin Street. Both the design concepts presented August 8th and the preliminary design presented December 5th were well received by the public based on comment sheets received and public input provided at the two workshops. 1.3 The improvements are in keeping with the Municipality's objective of improving older infrastructure as the opportunity presents itself. In this instance the Region of Durham had a requirement to upgrade their water system on Concession Street and Elgin Street and there were long term cost benefits to coordinate this work with other required improvements at these locations. 2.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 2.1 The proposed designs for Concession Street and Elgin Street will meet the Municipality of Clarington's transportation and infrastructure needs as well as address local residents' major concerns with regard to traffic speed. Concession Street is designed to the Municipality's local width standard of 8.5 m with the 722 . , , REPORT NO.: EGD-05-02 PAGE 3 introduction of 5 pavement narrowings or "bump-outs" between Prospect Street and Liberty Street in which the pavement width will be reduced to 6.0 m. The "bump-outs" are a traffic calming measure that will help reduce traffic speeds along Concession Street. A small group of people at the information centre did express some concem with the 8.5 m pavement width of the road. It is the opinion of the Engineering Services staff that the 8.5 m pavement width is the minimum necessary to safely convey Concession Street traffic volumes. The 8.5m width will allow traffic to pass parked cars, provide refuge for disabled vehicles and will also allow for the development of effective traffic calming "bump-outs" . 2.2 In addition to the "bump-outs", various streetscaping elements will be incorporated into the design to 1) provide additional traffic calming measures and 2) enhance the existing character of the neighbourhood as was done with the recently reconstructed Centre Street project. 2.3 Other infrastructure improvements that will be improved as part of the proposed work include: . Concrete storm sewers thus improving drainage in the area. . Concrete sidewalks. . New watermains improving water pressure and fire protection. . New sanitary sewers. 2.4 The preliminary design for the required improvements as presented was well received by the majority in attendance. As such, the design team is moving forward with detailed design which will be completed based on the input received. 2.5 There are a few minor details that still have to be resolved to address issues raised by local residents and the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association, 723 .::. , REPORT NO.: EGD-OS-02 PAGE 4 but the nature of these issues are such that they still allow the design team to proceed with the detailed design of the core infrastructure. Once these outstanding issues are resolved, they will be incorporated into the final contract drawings and specifications. The design team is also working with the Old Bowmanville Neighbourhood Association to assist them with various initiatives for the neighbourhood. 2.6 It is estimated that the Municipality of Clarington's portion of the reconstruction costs will be $325,000 for Elgin Street and $1.2 million for Concession Street. The Region of Durham total costs are estimated at $1.1 million for both streets. 2.7 It is anticipated the design will be finalized within the next two months and tenders will be called in early March 2002. It is estimated that construction will take 6 to 7 months to complete, therefore construction should be underway by May of 2002.
