AGREEMENT 1-2354 Exhibit A ....--' -~ CONSULT ANT wil1 prepare station site plans for each CenterLine station. These site plans wil1 be at the 30% level and indicate the location and. design of sidewalks for pedestrians and handicapped users, roadways and loading areas for the feeder buses, entrances, exits, and parking lanes for parking lots, location and size of the communications and signal building, the location and size of the traction power substation, and location and design features of the platform area. (Not a\1 stations wil1 have al1 these facilities.) The plans wil1 reflect appropriate sensitivity to neighborhood concerns, existing and planned bus route circulation around the station site, existing and planned trafflc flows within the larger station environs, and existing and projected developments adjacent to the station site, General priority in design wil1 be given to the needs of the rail system, the pedestrian, the feeder buses, and the automobile in that order. Where these priorities should be changed in the opinion of the CONSULTANT, specific reasons should be given, The end product of this work will be a station layout which meets with The AUTHORITY's approval and is reasonably fixed so that it may directly move to [mal design, The CONSULTANT will be prepared to coordinate with individual cities regarding station design where cooperative joint ventures with private developers is planned, or anticipated, for , , upgrades to aesthetics and other features, Working with the communications, signal, and traction power engineers, the CONSULTANT will prepare standard architectural designs for both the communication and -signal system building and thc traction power substation which are unique, reflective of the CenterLine project and its other major design elements, visually pleasing, and usable throughout the project's length. When located within a station site, these stnlctures should be located, designed and perhaps landscaped to minimize visual intl1lsion and conflict with pedestrian and bus circulation, CONSULTANT wil1 also develop signage criteria and standards and develop guidelines for the location of speciflc signs at stations to maximize patron awareness at critical decision points along pedestrian pathways. The signage criteria and standards should include system-wide signage as wel1, although the speciflc locations of such signage will not be required in the station work element. 111 developing the station site plans the CONSULTANT will be working with The AUTHORITY staff in its Public Involvement Program regarding the community review and input process. The CONSULTANT wil1 need to prepare material for public presentations showing standard station facilities and designs in plan and profile, and shal1 be available for presentations, community meetings, committee meetings and other public forums as requested by The AUTHORITY. Dcliverables: The CONSULT ANT sha\1 prepare the fol1owing: at least to the 30% level of . Station site plan at a scale of 1"=20' and design drawings design for each proposed CenterLine station, . Design standards and specifications for all system-wide elements of the station platform including but not limited to: power and communication conduits and outlets for public address, CCTY; and lighting poles and fixtmes. . Design standards, speciflcations and location guidelines for station and system signage, 34 0 "v'.
