BACKGROUND: The intersection at Third Street and Hetherton Street is one of the most heavily congested locations in San Rafael. It is highly traversed by pedestrians traveling between the downtown area, Caltrans Park-and-Ride lots, nearby schools, the SMART train station, and the San Rafael Transit Center. The Third Street at Hetherton Street Improvements project is comprised of many safety improvements to the intersection. First, the removal of the southern crosswalk that previously was used to cross Hetherton and have pedestrians cross both left turn lanes from Third Street. Second, the installation of a northern crosswalk which improves pedestrians’ visibility and allows them to cross Hetherton more safely. In addition to traffic signal safety improvements, the project included the installation of a Miovision camera to improve the traffic signals’ operation and automation. On December 11, 2019, the project was advertised in accordance with San Rafael’s Municipal Code, and sealed bids were publicly opened and read aloud January 29, 2020 at 10:00 AM. On February 18, 2020, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with the low bidder, Ghilotti Bros. Inc. in the amount of $398,983 and approving a construction contingency of $61,017 for a total appropriation in an amount of $460,000. Construction commenced on May 19, 2020, and all work was completed on November 19, 2020. ANALYSIS: Pursuant to Civil Code Section 3093, the City is required to record a Notice of Completion upon City acceptance of the improvements. This acceptance initiates a time period during which project subcontractors may file ‘Stop Notices’ seeking payment from the City from the funds owed to the Contractor for the project work. F ISCAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact is associated with this report. The project was funded by Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program grant funds.
