City of Everett Edgewater Creek Bridge Replacement <br /> Exhibit "A" <br /> SCOPE OF WORK <br /> Background: <br /> This project will replace the existing City of Everett's(City)Edgewater Creek Bridge in <br /> Mukilteo Blvd. corridor with a new multi-span bridge. <br /> The Bridge constructed in 1946, is a vital link in a chain of three bridges that provide the only <br /> access to neighborhoods located along the Mukilteo Boulevard, an NHS route between the cities <br /> of Everett and Mukilteo. The other two bridges are Maple Heights(SID 08560500) and Merrill <br /> & Ring(SID 08560600) and both have projects proposed to deal with existing deficiencies. The <br /> Mukilteo Boulevard traverses deep ravines and winds along steep hillsides and is the only <br /> access to the neighborhoods along its length. It also serves over 6000 vehicles per day in its load <br /> restricted condition. If any two of these three bridges were to fail during a seismic event there is <br /> no other access to the areas isolated by the bridge failures. <br /> The existing structure is a 5-span 352 feet(52':78.5':91':78.5: 52') and 37 feet wide (26' curb- <br /> to-curb)cast-in-place non-redundant two girder concrete tee-beam bridge that is deficient in <br /> both shear and deck design demand load bearing capacity. The deck was designed for H-15 <br /> loading and is showing signs of distress under modern loads, even with its load posted status. <br /> The bridge is not only at risk seismically but is also functionally obsolete with its narrow traffic <br /> lanes and narrow sidewalks. <br /> The physical condition of this bridge has been deteriorating in recent years and requires constant <br /> maintenance and occasional closures. Replacement alignment/s of the existing bridge will be <br /> based on considerations of the environmental process determinations,right-of-way,mobility of <br /> traffic and other City-desired goals that will be determined during the important Type, Size, & <br /> Location(TS&L) investigation phase of the project. <br /> The work will include project management inclusive of project scoping, multi-agency <br /> coordination, utility coordination, and preliminary design, final design, and construction phases. <br /> It is assumed that the City will lead the Right-of-way activities. <br /> The City,at its discretion,may elect to include to amend the consultant's contract to include partial <br /> or full construction engineering services, which may include construction phase engineering <br /> support and inspection for federally funded projects. <br /> Furthermore,the City,at its discretion,may elect to amend the consultant's contract to include the <br /> design and construction phase engineering support and inspection of the Merrill & Ring Bridge <br /> replacement as well,due to its similarity to the Edgewater Creek Bridge Replacement Project. <br /> Initial Scope Summary: <br /> Page 1 of 42 <br />
