Has administrated and performed TLS I & II projects. Traffic Signal Supervisor II: Ed Schroeder Has 10 years with traffic signals operations with special emphasis in controller theory, and in time base coordination. He will review existing and proposed timing plans to ensure compatibility with the existing field equipment. 6 j. This system was awarded a TLS I contract. However, due to highway construction that was not completed on schedule resulted in the termination of the contract. There are five intersections plus a diamond interchange that are involved in this system. All equipment was upgraded to time base capabilities as a result of the construction project. The timing plans for this system were never coordinated due to the termination of the project. US 79 is carrying additional traffic volumes due to the completion of the project and is in great need of a coordinated system. 6 k. There is only one person at TxDOT's Austin District who is trained to use the TRANSYT 7F and PASSER II & III computer programs. That person has been assigned to work on the IVHS early deployment study program. Therefore, there is a need to train an additional TxDOT personnel in order to review the work for this third TLS program. I L - 1;� ! igtt; I k f E pi ~o tW2 1 . I ¢ $ � i� I / SA'v ® ' ' 1 )i - . .

I have enclosed a cost proposal for the project and a list of selected projects outlining WHM's previous experience in traffic signal analysis. Our demonstrated technical expertise, experience in working with numerous cities throughout Texas and our proximity to Round Rock combine to provide the best choice for the City's TLS 111 project - WHM Transportation Engineering Consultants, Inc. I look forward to the opportunity to work with the City of Round Rock on this project. Sincerely, cy, ,�QfJ e, 1 �'ti Uv Mike Mclnturff, P.E. President CITY OF ROUND ROCK TRAFFIC LIGHT SYNCHRONIZATION PROGRAM PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The City of Round Rock has been selected by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) for a Traffic Light Synchronization Program III (TLS III) project consisting of the following six intersections along US 79 and Sam Bass Road: Sunrise Road, Georgetown Street, Egger Avenue, Mays Street, IH 35 East and West Frontage Roads and Chisholm Trail. The existing system consists actuated controllers with time -based coordination capabilities. Current phasing varies by location, ranging from two phase to multiphase, protected/permissive left turn operation. SCOPE OF WORK Field Check Equipment This task will consist of field inspection of equipment to verify operations consistent with timing/phasing records, obtain details on existing timing/phasing plans, and check proper operation of all equipment. This work will be accomplished during the first month of the project. Collect Field Data Traffic control data collection will consist of notation of signing and pavement markings which should be modified to assist in more efficient traffic signal operation, such as Stop line placement, lane control, etc. Traffic operational data collection will consist of the following: (1) a minimum of six travel time runs for each traffic- volume condition (AM, mid -day and PM) using floating car field studies to be conducted by City or TxDOT personnel and coordinated by WHM, (2) peak hour turning movement counts at each intersection for each traffic- volume condition. This work should be accomplished during the first two months of the project. Attend Workshops A WHM professional staff member will attend TRANSYT and PASSER workshops on September 27 -29 and October 4 -6, 1994, respectively, with City staff as scheduled by TxDOT. Data Coding and Calibration Code data in computer, develop initial simulation runs and calibrate model. This will be used to complete the "Before" evaluation report. This work should be accomplished by the end of the fourth month of the project. "Before" Field evaluation Conduct "Before" field evaluation and prepare a report documenting the results of the data collection and simulation runs by the end of Month 5. Optimization Runs and Plan Selection Develop optimization runs and select signal timing/phasing plans during Month 6. Implement and Fine -tune Timin P� fans Implement and fine -tune timing plans during Months 7 and 8. Simulation of Plans Complete simulation of plans implemented in field during Months 8 and 9. Page 1 of 3 WHM Transportation Engineering Consultants, Inc "After" Field evaluation Conduct "After" field evaluation and develop a fmal report documenting the results of the study and implementation phase during Month 10. QUALIFICATIONS Knowledge of the Traffic Light Synchronization Program III (TLS III) WHM assisted the Cities of Marble Falls, Round Rock and San Marcos in travel time data collection and preparation of TLS applications during the first phase of the program. A decision was made by TxDOT to accomplish these projects, which were on State highway routes, with District 14 personnel, rather than with consultant services. During previous employment with another consulting firm, WHM's Principle -in- Charge assisted the City of Victoria with its TLS project. WHM completed a TLS II project for the City of New Braunfels in September 1993. WHM has in its possession and is familiar with the Traffic Light Synchronization Program III Grant Application Procedures manual. Knowledge of PASSER II/CQ and TRANSYT -7F WHM owns software and documentation manuals for PASSER II-90 and PASSER III -90 and TRANSYT -7F. PASSER III -90 is designed to assist in analyzing signalized diamond interchanges. TRANSYT -7F has as its main benefit the ability to analyze networks of signalized intersections. Our personnel have used each of these signal timing optimization programs on several projects. For the six signalized intersections in the City's project, the use of PASSER II is the preferred alternative with initial optimization at IH 35 using PASSER III. WHM Transportation Engineering Consultants, Inc. For years, C. Michael Walton, Mike Mclnturff, and Randy Machemehl, all registered Professional Engineers, have worked on hundreds of the most interesting projects in Austin, as well as many of the metropolitan areas of the United States. The principals of WHM are proven expert consultants, researchers, and academicians with more than fifty years of combined engineering experience. Operating according to a philosophy of technical excellence, and client satisfaction, the firm offers a broad range of services in all technical areas of traffic and transportation engineering to both the public and private sectors. The firm has exceptional experience working with communities, counties and State Highway and Transportation Agencies in the development of transportation systems which serve the traveling public. This work includes detailed technical analysis of signal systems in several cities, including systems of various sizes with a variety of traffic flow conditions. The professionals in our firm have significantly more than three years experience in traffic analysis and traffic signal synchronization. The enclosed Lower Tier Participant Debarment Certification was previously provided to the City. WHM has available, under its direct employment and supervision, the necessary organization and facilities to properly fulfill all services required under Specification No. 14 -94 -0002. Only personnel trained in services of this type will be employed under and for this contract. SIMILAR PROJECTS Client: Melvin Simon & Associates, Inc.
