intersections. The surveyor will perform the utility research and will identify utilities on the
topographic survey. An intersection base sheet(s) for the project intersection will be developed
from the topographic survey.
Signal Design
The design services include the design of fully actuated, mast -arm configured traffic signals in
accordance with City of Round Rock and TxDOT standards and specifications. Klotz Associates
will prepare plans, bid documents, and construction cost estimates for the proposed signals. The
traffic signal design plans will include the following sheets for each of the two design packages:
title sheet; general notes; traffic signal notes; estimates and quantities; existing conditions sheet,
signal layout, signal elevation layout, and striping layout for each intersection; and TxDOT/City
of Round Rock standard detail sheets. A description of the signal, elevation, and striping layouts
follows:
Signal Layout — Klotz Associates will prepare a signal layout for the intersection. The
signal layout will include lane configuration, width, and use; future widening, if
applicable; pavement markings with pedestrian crosswalk locations and stop lines; traffic
signal head configuration and location; pedestrian signal head configuration and location;
vehicle detector configuration and location; pole location; luminaries location; pull box
location; conduit and cable size and location (electrical schedule); street name; right-of-
way and easements; pavement type; corner radii; tapers; curbs; driveways; sidewalks;
ADA ramps; trees and shrubs that pose a sight distance restriction; railings and barriers;
utilities; bus stops; adjacent land use; other required traffic signs (i.e., signal -related
signs, lane use signs, illuminated street name signs); electrical service (meter cabinet)
location; controller cabinet location; and spread -spectrum antenna location. Klotz
Associates will field verify existing conditions and locations of proposed improvements.
Signal Elevation Layout — Klotz Associates will prepare a signal elevation layout for the
signal design. The layout will include an elevation profile for each approach to the
intersection. The mounting elevation specified for each signal item shall conform to the
Texas MUTCD and TxDOT standards.
Striping Layout — Klotz Associates will provide a striping layout for the intersection.
The striping shall be in accordance with the Texas MUTCD and the current ADA Rules
and Regulations for new construction within Public Rights -of -Way.
Traffic Control Plan
No site-specific traffic control plan will be required. Typical TxDOT traffic control standards
will be included in the plans and will be sufficient for the traffic signal installation. Any
additional traffic control plans will be considered as Additional Services.
Utility Coordination
If this project involves railroad, pipeline, or private rights-of-way or easements which require the
concurrence of these agencies, then Klotz Associates will obtain design approval on behalf of
City of Round Rock. Permit applications, if required, from the appropriate governmental or
private agency will be completed and submitted by Klotz Associates. Klotz Associates will
submit a letter stating that coordination with each utility has been completed and that there are no
unresolved conflicts. If conflicts exist or a utility has not responded to the Klotz Associates
inquiry, the letter will state what the conflicts are, which utility has not responded, and when
coordination was initiated.
Bid Documents
Klotz Associates will prepare one bid package for the traffic signal design as described above.
The signal design plans will be complete drawings with sufficient information for use in
construction. Notes, call -outs, details, appurtenances, etc., will be shown in their entirety. The
bid documents will be provided in City of Round Rock format including the City of Round Rock
bid and contract information, bid proposal, and specifications. Pay items will be according to
TxDOT standards, unless otherwise specified. Klotz Associates will provide a construction cost
estimate for each intersection signal.
Signal Timing Plans
Klotz Associates will prepare the basic signal timings for each project intersection. These
intersections are expected to operate in a "free" mode; therefore, only basic controller phase
settings including minimum green, extension, max times, clearance intervals and pedestrian
timings will be developed. The City of Round Rock will provide Klotz Associates any traffic
volume data that has been collected at the intersections. Klotz Associates would submit these
basic signal timings in a spreadsheet format. Other signal timing services such as time of day
coordinated timing plan development and timing implementation assistance will be considered as
Additional Services.
Submittals
Two review submittals will be made to City of Round Rock Transportation Department and
TxDOT, if required, (50% and 95%). The 50% review submittals will include the 11" x 17"
signal design plans (i.e., title sheet, general notes, traffic signal notes, estimates and quantities,
existing conditions sheet, signal layout, signal elevation layout, and striping layout) at a 50%
level of completion. The 95% review submittals will include 11" x 17" signal design plans and
all applicable standards and specifications. In addition, the bid documents and construction cost
estimates will be submitted at 95%. After each submittal (50% and 95%), Klotz Associates will
attend a design review meeting. All review comments will be addressed prior to the next
submittal. The last submittal will be final (100%) 11" x 17" mylar plans, bid documents, and a
construction cost estimate. Signal design plans and bid documents will be signed, sealed, and
dated by the registered State of Texas Professional Engineer responsible for the drawings.
Bid Phase Services
Klotz Associates will advertise the bid, reproduce plan sets and bid documents, and sell plan sets
and bid documents to contractors. Klotz Associates will attend and conduct one pre-bid meeting,
address all formally submitted questions from contractors, and prepare and issue addenda as
appropriate. The City of Round Rock will conduct the bid opening. Klotz Associates will not
attend the bid opening, but will review and tabulate all bids received by the City of Round Rock.
Klotz Associates will perform bid analysis and make recommendations accordingly.
Construction Phase Services
The construction phase services will include attendance at one pre -construction meeting,
addressing technical questions from the meeting, responding to Requests for Information (RFI)
attending the signal turn -on meeting, and preparation of record drawings. Klotz Associates will,
upon receipt of the contractor's marked -up construction plans, revise the original mylar drawings
showing changes made during construction. Klotz Associates will also revise the original
electronic files and submit in electronic format.

ENGINEERING SERVICES
General
The scope of services proposed for this contract includes de sign, bid, and construction phase
engineering services for the proposed traffic signals at various intersections in Round Rock,
Texas. One design package will be prepared, to include the following intersections:
• Old Settlers Boulevard at Greenhill Drive
• A.W. Grimes Boulevard at Plateau Vista Boulevard
Details of the services to be performed at each intersection are provided in the following
sections.
Design Services
Topographic Survey
Klotz Associates will engage a surveyor to perform a topographic survey of the project
intersections. The surveyor will perform the utility research and will identify utilities on the
topographic survey. An intersection base sheet(s) for the project intersection will be developed
from the topographic survey.
Signal Design
The design services include the design of fully actuated, mast -arm configured traffic signals in
accordance with City of Round Rock and TxDOT standards and specifications. Klotz Associates
will prepare plans, bid documents, and construction cost estimates for the proposed signals. The
traffic signal design plans will include the following sheets for each of the two design packages:
title sheet; general notes; traffic signal notes; estimates and quantities; existing conditions sheet,
signal layout, signal elevation layout, and striping layout for each intersection; and TxDOT/City
of Round Rock standard detail sheets. A description of the signal, elevation, and striping layouts
follows:
Signal Layout — Klotz Associates will prepare a signal layout for the intersection. The
signal layout will include lane configuration, width, and use; future widening, if
applicable; pavement markings with pedestrian crosswalk locations and stop lines; traffic
signal head configuration and location; pedestrian signal head configuration and location;
vehicle detector configuration and location; pole location; luminaries location; pull box
location; conduit and cable size and location (electrical schedule); street name; right-of-
way and easements; pavement type; corner radii; tapers; curbs; driveways; sidewalks;
ADA ramps; trees and shrubs that pose a sight distance restriction; railings and barriers;
utilities; bus stops; adjacent land use; other required traffic signs (i.e., signal -related
signs, lane use signs, illuminated street name signs); electrical service (meter cabinet)
location; controller cabinet location; and spread -spectrum antenna location. Klotz
Associates will field verify existing conditions and locations of proposed improvements.
Signal Elevation Layout — Klotz Associates will prepare a signal elevation layout for the
signal design. The layout will include an elevation profile for each approach to the
intersection. The mounting elevation specified for each signal item shall conform to the
Texas MUTCD and TxDOT standards.
Striping Layout — Klotz Associates will provide a striping layout for the intersection.
The striping shall be in accordance with the Texas MUTCD and the current ADA Rules
and Regulations for new construction within Public Rights -of -Way.
Traffic Control Plan
No site-specific traffic control plan will be required. Typical TxDOT traffic control standards
will be included in the plans and will be sufficient for the traffic signal installation. Any
additional traffic control plans will be considered as Additional Services.
Utility Coordination
If this project involves railroad, pipeline, or private rights-of-way or easements which require the
concurrence of these agencies, then Klotz Associates will obtain design approval on behalf of
City of Round Rock. Permit applications, if required, from the appropriate governmental or
private agency will be completed and submitted by Klotz Associates. Klotz Associates will
submit a letter stating that coordination with each utility has been completed and that there are no
unresolved conflicts. If conflicts exist or a utility has not responded to the Klotz Associates
inquiry, the letter will state what the conflicts are, which utility has not responded, and when
coordination was initiated.
Bid Documents
Klotz Associates will prepare one bid package for the traffic signal design as described above.
The signal design plans will be complete drawings with sufficient information for use in
construction. Notes, call -outs, details, appurtenances, etc., will be shown in their entirety. The
bid documents will be provided in City of Round Rock format including the City of Round Rock
bid and contract information, bid proposal, and specifications. Pay items will be according to
TxDOT standards, unless otherwise specified. Klotz Associates will provide a construction cost
estimate for each intersection signal.
Signal Timing Plans
Klotz Associates will prepare the basic signal timings for each project intersection. These
intersections are expected to operate in a "free" mode; therefore, only basic controller phase
settings including minimum green, extension, max times, clearance intervals and pedestrian
timings will be developed. The City of Round Rock will provide Klotz Associates any traffic
volume data that has been collected at the intersections. Klotz Associates would submit these
basic signal timings in a spreadsheet format. Other signal timing services such as time of day
coordinated timing plan development and timing implementation assistance will be considered as
Additional Services.
Submittals
Two review submittals will be made to City of Round Rock Transportation Department and
TxDOT, if required, (50% and 95%). The 50% review submittals will include the 11" x 17"
signal design plans (i.e., title sheet, general notes, traffic signal notes, estimates and quantities,
existing conditions sheet, signal layout, signal elevation layout, and striping layout) at a 50%
level of completion. The 95% review submittals will include 11" x 17" signal design plans and
all applicable standards and specifications. In addition, the bid documents and construction cost
estimates will be submitted at 95%. After each submittal (50% and 95%), Klotz Associates will
attend a design review meeting. All review comments will be addressed prior to the next
submittal. The last submittal will be final (100%) 11" x 17" mylar plans, bid documents, and a
construction cost estimate. Signal design plans and bid documents will be signed, sealed, and
dated by the registered State of Texas Professional Engineer responsible for the drawings.
Bid Phase Services
Klotz Associates will advertise the bid, reproduce plan sets and bid documents, and sell plan sets
and bid documents to contractors. Klotz Associates will attend and conduct one pre-bid meeting,
address all formally submitted questions from contractors, and prepare and issue addenda as
appropriate. The City of Round Rock will conduct the bid opening. Klotz Associates will not
attend the bid opening, but will review and tabulate all bids received by the City of Round Rock.
Klotz Associates will perform bid analysis and make recommendations accordingly.
Construction Phase Services
The construction phase services will include attendance at one pre -construction meeting,
addressing technical questions from the meeting, responding to Requests for Information (RFI),
attending the signal turn -on meeting, and preparation of record drawings. Klotz Associates will,
upon receipt of the contractor's marked -up construction plans, revise the original mylar drawings
showing changes made during construction. Klotz Associates will also revise the original
electronic files and submit in electronic format.
