  1. VelociRFTA CCA Presentation Roaring Fork Transportation Authority - RFTA November 8, 2010

  2. Today’s Meeting Agenda • The purpose of this meeting is to introduce the VelociRFTA BRT Project to the Colorado Contractors Association. Also, RFTA is hoping to generate excitement for this upcoming construction project and gather input on the construction procurement process. • Introductions – Mike Hermes (RFTA) • Project Presentation and Overview – Craig Friesen (M. Baker Corp) • Construction Assumptions – Robert Manzanares (HNTB) and Nick Senn (SGM) • Construction Constraints – Robert Manzanares (HNTB) and Nick Senn (SGM) • Construction Procurement –Collina Washington (RFTA) • Closing Remarks

  3. VelociRFTA BRT Project Introduction • The proposed BRT service will utilize the existing 40‐mile Colorado State Highway 82 (SH 82) corridor between Glenwood Springs and Aspen • The proposed BRT service consists of nine stations, seven of which are located at existing RFTA local or express service stops, two new park and ride lots, and the expansion of one existing park and ride lot • As part of transit service priority (TSP) elements, queue jump lanes and signal priority for transit buses will be provided at key intersections • The proposed BRT project, through nearly a decade of study, emerged as a viable and preferred solution to reduce transit travel times, improve mobility, and enhance transportation capacity in order to reduce congestion on SH 82 in the Roaring Fork Valley

  4. BRT Project Status • The project is currently at 60% design with final design scheduled to be completed in early 2011. • RFTA intends to advertise the project in early 2011 • Notice to proceed for construction is anticipated to occur in early to mid 2011. • Construction phasing will be a challenge on this project due to the multiple locations along the 40 mile corridor (see SH 82 Corridor Map on the following slide), and the fact that RFTA will need to remain operational during construction • Waiting for the FONSI from the FTA to begin acquiring properties
