Consideration of Resolution No. 25-1007 authorizing the 2025 Traffic Signals Project, PN 3-TS-000-25.

Body

________________________________________________________________________________

Summary:

This annual project is in place to install new traffic signals or to replace existing traffic signals that have been identified through an inspection process to be in poor condition or beyond their useful life.

 

This year’s project includes funding the replacement of the existing traffic signals at the intersections of Santa Fe and Buchanan, 135th and Brougham, and 135th and Black Bob.  The existing signals were installed in 1993 (135th and Brougham and 135th and Black Bob) and 1995 (Santa Fe and Buchanan) and are at the end of their useful life of 25 to 30 years.  These signals have conduits and poles in poor condition and mast arms with wear due to fatigue.  The project includes the replacement of the traffic signal conduits, controllers, control boxes, mast arms, poles, and attached equipment.

 

Additionally, the installation or replacement of traffic signal conduits, controllers, control boxes, mast arms, poles, attached equipment and other necessary equipment may be included at additional locations to address modifications needed to improve traffic flow and operations.

 

The Santa Fe and Buchanan traffic signal is currently under design with construction tentatively scheduled for Fall 2025.  Design of the 135th and Brougham and the 135th and Black Bob traffic signals is tentatively scheduled for 2025 with construction tentatively scheduled for 2026.
