RE: Proposal for Professional Services for the Preliminary Evaluation of 2 nd and 3rd Streets
Operations with the SMART Extension
Dear Hunter:
Kimley-Horn is pleased to submit our proposal and fee estimate to provide professional
engineering services for the initial evaluation of 2 nd and 3rd Streets with the Sonoma-Marin Area
Rail Transit (SMART) extension into Larkspur. This evaluation will assess traffic operations along
these two streets with SMART rail operations. The intent is to determine how the traffic
operations will function when the rail is extended crossing 2 nd and 3rd Streets, and whattype of
traffic control will be needed at the rail crossings such as a queue cutter or pre-s ignal.
Attached is our detailed scope of services, schedule, and fee estimate for your review .
We appreciate the opportunity to work with you on this project. If you have any questions, please
do not hesitate to call me at (510) 350-0217 (office) or (510) 393-6232 (cell).
Very truly yours,

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
SMART anticipates and is working on extending their service from downtown San Rafael to the Larkspur
Landing (slated for the end of 2018). As part of this extension, SMART plans on using the existing at-
grade crossings on Second and Third Streets. Second and Third Street are the main east and west
corridors through downtown San Rafael.
In order to provide the safest traffic systems possible along these roadways with the SMART extension, in
particular strategies to prevent vehicles from stopping on the rail tracks, a preliminary study is necessary
to determine if a separate queue cutter signal or a pre-signal is warranted for the at-grade crossings along
these roadways.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1: Project Management and Coordination
This task includes project management related activities including meetings, preparation of invoices,
budget oversight, adherence to project scheduling, and general project coordination. We will work with
the City at the start of the project to establish the project schedule and the completion of the initial
deliverables.
A kick-off meeting will be arranged with City staff to review a nd discuss some of the elements associated
with project and to review project schedule, the deliverables, and the overall project approach.
As necessary, Kimley-Horn will coordinate with SMART, Caltrans, and the CPUC, including any needed
meetings with these external agencies to gather information as part of the preliminary evaluation.
Task 2.0: Preliminary Evaluation Study
KimleY-Horn will conduct a multimodal analysis of the proposed rail crossings with the purpose of
identifying and validating the necessary, appropriate, and reasonable facilities and improvements to keep
vehicles from stopping on the SMART tracks on 2 nd and 3rd Streets. We will evaluate conformance with
the CPUC regulations, the California Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (CA MUTeD), and other
best practices for transportation safety.
We will examine current traffic data, site constraints, and current State and Federal regulatory codes to
determine whether the existing traffic signals could be modified to achieve the safety operations
necessary to prevent vehicles from stopping on the tracks. The outcome of the study will be to identify
the recommended improvements which could include Queue Cutter signals and/or Pre-signals.
We will utilize existing traffic counts and existing traffic models that have been prepared for the project
intersections which includes:
• 2nd Street and Tamalpais Avenue
• 2nd Street and Hetherton Street
Kimley») Horn
• 3rd Street and Tamalpais Avenue
• 3rd Street and Hetherton Street
We will assess the potential traffic operations with the at-grade crossings including traffic control,
vehicular queuing, traffic signal infrastructure, vehicle-rail interactions, and pedestrian and bicycle
access/circulation .
As part of the evaluation will develop up to three (3) alternatives for traffic signal improvements for the
at-grade crossings and identify a preferred alternative.
Oeliverables:
• Draft Preliminary Study (technical memorandum)
• Final Preliminary Study
