III. Approach to Critical Issues

Critical Issue- PIO & Stakeholders Coordination Challenges & Approach:

• Coordination with Broward County and the City of Coral Springs
• Coordination with adjacent business to ensure continuous driveway access during construction.
• Especially for plazas on the south side with one way traffic through the parking lot
• Coordination with adjacent schools/Parks
• Extra attention to protecting Whispering Woods Park right-of-way
• Approach Highlights: construction flyer distributer, weekly progress update & 2 week advance notice prior

to work. Critical Issue- Utility Coordination Challenges & Approach:

• Coordination with utility owners (TECO, ATT, FPL, CITY, Etc.)
• Soft digs are critical for mast arm locations
• Multiple Utility relocations not addressed in the Draft Plans.
• Proximity to overhead utilities and OSHA Requirements (De-energizing; using low profile equipment; Etc.)
• Our approach includes:
• Create a matrix with all the anticipated utility work
• Pre-construction utility meeting
• Early Utility relocation coordination

Critical Issue- Communication with County Project Manager Challenges & Approach:

• Our SPE will ensure that the PM is informed of project related issues and construction progress using the

following methods:

• Weekly progress meetings
• Weekly progress reports
• Monthly logs (PIO, WO, RFI, Etc.), dailies and emails

III. Approach to Critical Issues

Critical Issue: Earthwork & Asphalt Challenges & Approach:

• Monitoring Earthwork Quantities
• Performing VT and QC testing
• Monitoring the paving operation to ensure smooth ridability is critical at intersections.
• Pre paving meeting with the contractor.
• Review the asphalt QC plan prior to paving and will provide comments to the contractor.
• Ensure temperature testing is performed.
• Asphalt tickets are collected for review.
• Milling depth is checked.
• Cleanness of the milled surface prior to tack application, track asphalt application rates, track tack

application rates.

• Tracking overbuild and verifying final elevations using OUR survey crew.

Critical Issue- Drainage Challenges & Approach:

• Pre-activity meeting.
• Timely submittal & review of shop drawings. Only Stamped Structures are used.
• Ensure that all filter fabric, bricks, mortar & coarse aggregate are:
• Certified & Sampled and accepted to AVOID any rework.

Critical Issue- Signalization & Pavement Markings Challenges & Approach:

• Locations of the mast arm foundation.
• Foundation elevation.
• Foundation bolt alignment.
• Thorough review of Drill Shaft Installation Plan.
• Pavement marking layout prior to paint and thermoplastic application.
• Allow proper curing time prior to placing thermo.

III. Approach to Critical Issues

Critical Issue- MOT & Safety Challenges and Proactive Approach:

• MOT will be a main focus to our team, working on one side of the roadway at a time, ensuring:
• Pedestrian access specifically for:
• Coral Springs High School, Center Academy Coral Springs, American High School, Forest

Glen Middle School; Coordination will include school & crossing guard staff for construction during school hours. Coordination with surrounding residents and businesses.

• Driveway Access
• Implementing lane closures as per the FDOT standard index 600, protection of drop offs, providing

business access Other Critical Issues:

• Tree removal / trimming in proposed sidewalk areas
• Obtaining permits prior to start of tree removal or clearing and grubbing
• Comparing the work performed by construction project east of the project limits to our proposed work

in order to avoid conflicts, redundancy and rework

• Coordination with FDOT
• CIGP Contract Requirements
• Reimbursements
• WO’s, CO’s, Time Extensions
• Constant Communication

Final Materials Certification and Final Estimates: Using only materials approved by the County and FDOT, using APL signalization items, & coordination for material testing between the QC/VT Lab. Monthly & Final Estimates will be prepared by Felix and reviewed by Bryan to ensure the accuracy of payments to the contractor Contract Administration: RFI’s, Schedule Review, QC plans review, meetings, As-builts, monthly letters, sampling and testing, claim documentation and technical support
