Summary:
This project is needed to address safety and capacity concerns in the area. The project will improve Lone Elm Road from 119th Street to Harold from a 2-lane unimproved roadway to a 2-lane divided arterial section with turn lanes. Improvements will include pavement construction, curb and gutter, medians, streetlights, sidewalk and sidepath, bike lanes and storm sewers.
On November 5, 2024, the City advertised a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for engineering firms to provide design services for the project. Five (5) firms responded to the RFQ. After reviewing all proposals, the selection committee chose TranSystems Corporation as the most qualified firm.
The agreement is for $995,186.00 and will include survey of existing conditions, utility coordination, public involvement, acquisition documentation (title reports, surveyed exhibits, easement documents, etc.) needed for any right-of-way or easements, development of construction plans in accordance with Olathe design standards and specifications, cost estimates, assistance with bidding the project for construction, and assistance as needed throughout construction.
This project is tentatively scheduled for design in 2025/2026, land acquisition and utility relocations in 2026, and construction in 2027.
