DISCUSSION This project is part of the City's $100 million investment to rebuild neighborhood streets throughout the City. Segments of local streets located within the Mid-City Neighborhood in the area bounded by Bristol Street, Raitt Street, Edinger Avenue, and McFadden Avenue, and a portion of Edinger Avenue east of Mohawk Street have been identified as a high priority for rehabilitation in the City's pavement management system (Exhibit 1). The pavement is deteriorating due to weather, age and heavy usage. Some of the adjacent curbs, gutters, sidewalks, cross gutters and wheelchair ramps are also in various states of disrepair and require replacement. The project provides for recycling of existing asphalt pavement with the cement treated base reconstruction process, and replacement of damaged concrete curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and curb ramps. Bid alternate one provides for re-establishing the survey monuments. Once completed, these improvements will enhance the ride quality, surface drainage and visual appearance of the neighborhood.
