The Girvan project has improved the signi�cant grade difference over the tracks at the Girvan
Road and Union Pacific Railroad at grade crossing by raising mainline State Route (SR) 273 up
to three feet. Other improvements completed include but are not limited to sidewalks, curb and
gutter, traffic signals, asphalt concrete, railroad signals, storm drainage, striping, and other
miscellaneous items of work
The SRBP project completed a separated ten-foot to twelve-foot multi-use trail running south
from the Westside Rd/SR 2'73 intersection, along the west side of SR 2'73 within the Caltrans
right of way and connecting to the pedestrian facilities fronting the Win-River Casino. The trail
is asphalt concrete with a connection to the bridge over Clear Creek. The installation of a new
concrete barrier on the bridge separates the trail traffic from vehicle traffie. The project also
included, grading, storm drains, lighting and other miscellaneous items of work.

Bud et Resolution
Recommendation
Authorize the following actions relative to Bid Schedule No. 5183 (Job No. 2611) Girvan Road
Railroad Crossing Improvements and South Redding Bikeway and Pedestrian Trail Projects:
(1) Award to Tullis Inc. in the amount of$5,661,872.05;
(2) Approve $1,098,000 to cover the cost of administration and inspections fees; and
$1,300,000 for project development cost;
(3) Approve $1,040,000 to provide construction contingency funding;
(4) Autharize City Manager to approve additional increase in either the construction
management or construction contingency amounts up to a total of$500,000;
(5) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 76`h Amendment to City Budget Resolution
No. 2019-050 appropriating $1,000,100 in funding for the project;
(6) Autharize the Mayor to execute contract amendment No. 2 (75LX314A2) with Caltrans
to increase the contract amount to $8,234,'750; and
(7) Autharize the City Manager to execute any future required amendments to Caltrans
contract no. 75LX314.
Fiscal Impact
The Girvan Road Railroad Crossing Improvement Project (Girvan Project) is 100 percent
funded by the Federal Section ]30 Program, Federal Project Number STPLR-'7500(255)
through a grant contract with the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). On
September 19, 2017, the City Council (Council) Accepted a Federal Section 130 grant in the
amount of$7,234,650 and authorized the Mayor to execute contract 75LX314 with Caltrans
for the Girvan Project. On Apri1, 30, 2020, the Mayor signed the first amendment to extend
the contraet to July, 26, 2022. Prior to advertising the project for construction bids, an
additional $1,000,100 was secured based upon the engineer's estimate at the time and the
antieipated eonstruetion costs to fully fund the projeet. The City of Redding (City) received a
favorable bid from the low bidder and anticipated project costs are now within the original
Report to Redding City Council February 9,2021
Re: 4.11(a)--Award BS 5283 Girvan Rd RR Crossing Improv&S Rdg Bikeway&Ped Trail ProjPage 2
project budget. However, due to the complexity of this project and coordination with Union
Pacific Railroad, Caltrans recommended that the additional funding be included in the project
as additional construction contingency funding. The recommended contract amendment and
budget resolution will increase the Section 130 grant funding amount to $8,234,750.
The South Redding Bikeway and Pedestrian Trail Project (SRBP), a separate and distinct
project, is funded by multiple partners including: Shasta Regional Transportation Agency
(SRTA) in the amount of $393,490; Caltrans in the amount of $314,000; and the balance
($ 8 5 0,0 0 0) from t h e City of Redding (City) Streets Division Funds far a total proj ect
cost of $1,557,490. The City is coordinating with SRTA and anticipates approval for
additional funding. A1so, Caltrans is considering more funding as welL The additional SRTA
and/or Caltrans funding will offset costs budgeted from Streets Funds. Staff is also looking at
potential project modifications, including lighting type, which can be accomplished during
construction to limit the cost impacts to the Street Funds.

Total Bud eted Amount(Combined $9,792,240
Project cost components are estimates and some shifting of the project development,
construction management, and construction contingency funds may be necessary to balance the
project within the approved budget.
Alter�native Action
The City Council may choose not to award the project to Tullis, Inc. and provide staff with
alternate direction. Without this project, the improvements at the Girvan Railroad Crossing and
the bike and pedestrian trail will not be constructed. This would jeopardize Caltrans funding and
the City may be responsible for reimbursing costs to date for the Girvan and/or pedestrian trail
proj ect(s).
Background/Analysis
Attached is a tabulation of bids received and opened on January 28, 2021, for the Girvan
Road Railroad Crossing Improvement and South Redding Bikeway and Pedestrian Trail
Projects. The low bid in the amount of $5,661,872 was received from Tu11is, Inc., of
Redding, California. The engineer's estimate was $7,105,834. Total project development
costs for both projects are estimated to be $1,300,000. Project development costs include
engineering, surveying, right-of-way, environmental, consultant services and permit fees. With
adoption of the attached budget resolution, sufficient funds will be available for project
award.
Report to Redding City Council February 9,2021
Re: 4.11(a)--Award BS 5283 Girvan Rd RR Crossing Improv&S Rdg Bikeway&Ped Trail ProjPage 3
Girvan Road forms a three-legged intersection with Eastside Road east of the Union Pacific
Railroad (UPRR) tracks and is stop controlled at this time. Due to the proximity of the tracks,
the intersection also functions as part of a four-legged intersection with State Route (SR) 273,
and the intersection west of the tracks is controlled by traffic signals that are owned and
operated by Caltrans. The at-grade crossing has three tracks. UPRR has reported a number of
vehicles stopped on the tracks, unsafe motorist movements, rough crossing complaints and high
centering, and queuing on the tracks. The crossing is currently equipped with two railroad
warning devices; railroad advanced warning signage, and pavement markings. There is also a
significant need for pedestrian improvements in and around the Girvan Road crossing. There is
a Redding Area Bus Authority (RABA) stop on Eastside Road as we11 as significant pedestrian
activity generated from the residential neighborhoods to the east that cross SR 273 at this
location. Proposed improvements include bicycle and pedestrian facilities from the RABA stop
along the north side, including a path of travel across the tracks, and linking areas o�Westside
Road/Girvan Road to SR 273/Rancheria Road. The existing crosswalk on the south side of
Highway 273 will be removed. Also, to accommodate these improvements and reduce the
significant difference in grade over the tracks, the project will require mainline SR 273 to be
raised two to three feet with appropriate tapers and transitions.
The South Redding Bikeway and Pedestrian Study, funded with a Local Community Benefit
Committee Indian Gaming Grant, was completed in 2013. The Study identified potential
facility improvements for bicycle and pedestrian access in south Redding in the vicinity of the
Win-River Casino. The City developed a project in cooperation with Caltrans and SRTA that
will include a separated 10 to 12 foot multi-use trail running south from the Girvan
intersection, along the west side of SR 273 within the Caltrans right of way and connect to the
pedestrian facilities fronting the Casino. The proposed trail will be asphalt concrete with an on-
structure connection to the bridge over Clear Creek with the installation of a new concrete
barrier that will separate the trail traffic from vehicle traffic. The project also includes, grading,
storm drains, lighting and other miscellaneous items of work.
Due to overlapping construction limits, the impact to the traveling public and the associated
economies of scale, the Girvan Project and the SRBP Project were combined under one project
for construction. Costs for each project will be tracked separately.
On February 2, 2021, the Council found the Girvan Project and the SRBP Project to be
Categorically Exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act Guidelines
Section 15301(c)—Existing Facilities and Section 15304(h)—Minor Alterations to Land.
