Contract Location: Burke Gilman Trail
Contract description:
Project Description: Project scope includes widening the footprint of Burke Gilman Trail on the University of Washington Seattle campus to accommodate projected future demand. The project spans approximately one mile of the trail; including repaving and creating bike/pedestrian mode separation from Rainier Vista through NE 47th St to the degree feasible, based on available funding. Existing site conditions include connections with ADA pathways, vehicular and bike/pedestrian intersections, and environmentally critical areas including steep slopes. Construction phasing and the management of temporary pedestrian and bike traffic is a significant project issue and will require diligent planning in collaboration with the UW as well as WSDOT, the UW’s funding partner.
The project budget is $16,725,000.00. The target budget for all work to be provided under the design-build contract is $12,300,000.00.
