Body
BACKGROUND:
On or about September 1, 2016 City forces came across unstable pavement on Luna Road south of Mira Lago Boulevard at the bridge. After investigating the pavement failure, it was found that there were voids within the bridge structure and beneath the pavement. Due to the high volume of vehicular traffic, the City proceeded to close lanes because of the unsafe environment for the traveling public in this area. The City found that the bridge and pavement issues qualified as an emergency repair.
DISCUSSION:
City Administration found the bridge and pavement conditions to be a safety issue. To prevent further damage to the structure and pavement, the repairs to the bridge and pavement needed to be done as soon as possible.
The Director of Public Works executed a purchase requisition for the emergency repairs of the bridge and pavement collapse on Luna Road with Rebcon Inc. Staff solicited Rebcon, Inc. due to their availability and having the appropriate equipment and expertise to make such repairs.
The repairs of the failing bridge and road are complete. The 2016-2017 Capital Improvement Program, Street Improvement Bond Fund provides for street repairs throughout the City. The total cost of the emergency repairs was in the amount of $81,845.00.
