Memorandum
Attached for your review and consideration, please find a resolution to approve a contract between the City of Ann Arbor and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) for the construction phase of the Huron Parkway and Glazier Way Capital Preventative Maintenance Project. The agreement prescribes the cost sharing of the construction, as well as each party's rights and responsibilities, and is required for the project to receive its share of federal funding from the Surface Transportation Program (STPU).
This project is identified in the City's current Capital Improvements Plan as Project TR-SC-23-01 and involves placing a pavement preservation surface treatment on Huron Parkway between Fuller/Geddes Road and Hubbard Road and on Glazier Way between Green Road and Earhart Road. The work consists of intermittent cold milling and asphalt patching to address structurally distressed pavement areas, placing a cape seal surface treatment that includes one course chip seal and one course micro-surface applications, and placing new pavement markings.
