Project Description • Milling and resurfacing. • Construction of 4’ paved shoulders. • New guardrail. • Minimal curb work for tree protection. • Superelevation corrections (on 12 curves), tree protection. • Sidedrain replacement and cross drain extension. • Front slope corrections for safety improvements. This project is a milling and resurfacing of CR 325 from CR 346 to US 301 with 4 foot paved shoulders. The initial intention was to create plans for in-house construction for around $66,000. The department made the decision to use a private contractor rather than construct in-house. Kimley-Horn and Assoc., Inc. designed the project for a private contractor for $117,657. The additional cost for constructing for private contractors (as opposed to in-house construction) is associated with the additional upfront construction details that must be included in the private contractor plans and bid specification so that a contractor can accurately bid on the project and the County does not have to process costly change orders during construction. The construction for this project is scheduled to go bid soon. Funding for this project comes from Gas Tax Bond revenues that had been approved by the Board in April 2005.
