7. Greenway Road (Grand Avenue to Dysart Road)
   Design and construction of improvements to Greenway Road from Grand Avenue to Dysart Road (a distance of 2,800 feet). This project will widen Greenway Road on the north side to provide a 60-foot roadway section with curb, gutter, bike lane, and sidewalk. The new roadway will have two lanes in each direction separated by a two-way left turn lane.
8. Litchfield Road (Desert Cove Road toWaddell Road)
   Construction of new pavement, sidewalk, bike lane, curb, gutter, streetlights, and landscaping. This project will complete Litchfield Road between Desert Cove Road and Waddell Road with two travel lanes in each north and south direction (a distance of approximately 1.5 miles). This project also includes Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) conduits on Litchfield Road between Desert Cove and Cactus Road.
9. Low Water Crossing of Agua Fria
   Planning, design, and construction of this project will provide an east-west crossing of the Agua Fria parallel to Bell Road. Early studies indicated as many as 30,000 vehicles per day can be diverted from Bell Road if parallel capacity is provided.
10. Mountain View Boulevard (West of Grand Avenue)
    Design and construction of Mountain View Boulevard from Grand Avenue to Parkview Place to include new pavement, sidewalk, curb, gutter, streetlights, and landscaping. Project will also include milling and repaving of existing asphalt that is in need of repair, Maricopa Water District (MWD) irrigation facilities as required, extension of the existing sanitary sewer system, and continuation and connection of the existing road, curb, gutter, and sidewalk. This project may be reduced in scope depending on commercial construction along Mountain View Boulevard.
11. Reems Rd. (New Lane North of Hearn Rd., Channel, Median, and Sidewalks)
    Design and construction of 700 feet of roadway to complete the widening of Reems Road to include pavement, curb, gutter, bike lane, and sidewalk. The construction will include the north half of the Reems Road channel box culvert located at the intersection of Reems Road and Hearn Road. This project also includes the construction of the Reems Road channel (approximately one mile) from Waddell Road to Cactus Road with a half box culvert at Cactus Road and Waddell Road, landscaped median and sidewalks from Waddell Road to Cactus Road, and landscaping, streetlights and sidewalk (east and west) from Cactus Road to Peoria Avenue.

This project will complete Waddell Road between Cotton Lane and 174th Drive with three travel lanes in each east and west direction (a distance of approximately 0.5 mile). As Waddell Road approaches the intersection of Cotton Lane, the number of lanes transition to three lanes in each direction to match the major urban arterial section on the east leg of the intersection. There is no drainage system on this section of Waddell Road. Runoff flows onto the graded shoulder and either flows onto the adjacent undeveloped land or irrigation ditch that parallels the roadway on the south side. The improvement plans will also include the drainage corrections.
13. Waddell Road (Litchfield Road to Bullard Avenue)
    Construction of new pavement, sidewalk, curb, gutter, bike lane, streetlights, and landscaping along the south side of Waddell Road. The north side of the road is already built out. This project will complete Waddell Road between Litchfield Road and Bullard Avenue with three travel lanes in each east and west direction (a distance of approximately one mile). The design of the roadway has been completed by Marley Park. Construction of the minor urban arterial section is included as part of the construction of the Marley Park subdivision. This project may not be necessary after Marley Park completes the south half.

Additional Transportation Projects

• Bell Road Sidewalks (East andWest of Grand Avenue)
  Sidewalks: Design and construction of ten foot wide multi-purpose concrete sidewalks east of Grand Avenue along the south side of Bell Road. The sidewalks will start from Grand Avenue to Sierra Dawn Boulevard and progress from Sierra Dawn Boulevard to Avenue of the Arts, including right-of-way acquisition. This project also includes the design and construction of sidewalk along Bell Road west of Grand Avenue. The project entails demolition of the existing asphalt paved sidewalk and replacement with a new four inches thick and six feet wide concrete sidewalk with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps. The sidewalk will be located between 141st Avenue and SR 303 along the north and south side of Bell Road.
• DART Parking Facility
  The present facility at the Senior Center accommodates nine vehicles belonging to DART (Dial a Ride Transit). Fleet expansion of both divisions will make additional parking a necessity. Four additional cutaway buses will require a 12 foot width for parking and a 300 foot long security fence. Angled spaces to allow easy entry/exit and a storage shed for vehicle supplies are requested.
• Paving Settlement West of 219th Avenue
  Design and construction of new pavement and drainage improvement for the subdivision located west of 219th Avenue and north of Sun Valley Parkway. The unpaved roads consist of approximately 3.27 miles. This project will include one lane in each direction and will require an approval from Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT).
• Right Turn Lanes
  Design and construction of turn lanes at various locations along Bell Road. Construction will include new paving, curb, gutter, sidewalk, signing, striping, and signal upgrade for right turn lanes. A total of 22 locations have been identified. Design of 11 turn lanes have been completed. Updates to the design will be required before construction. In addition, bid documents need to be prepared.
• Saguaro View Rehabilitation Project
  Design and construction of new pavement in the subdivision of Saguaro View located west of 163rd Avenue and north of Dynamite Road. This project will be constructed in various phases based on the availability of funds and right-of-way acquisition. This project will complete paving of approximately five miles of roadway and drainage improvements.
• Street Preservation and Maintenance Program

  Replacement of all Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) equipment. This includes approximately 200 SCBA air tanks, 100 airpacks, 130 SCBA masks and 3 SCBA air-filling stations.
• Radios for firefighters
  Both a federal mandate, and the city’s participation in the Automatic Aid Agreement, dictate that all communication equipment be replaced with 800Mhz (megahertz) compliant equivalents. The scope of this project is three-fold. First, approximately $500,000 will be required to replace all (100) existing radios to 800Mhz models (including spare batteries and chargers). Second, approximately $300,000 will be required to upgrade or replace all (13) existing MCT (mobile computer terminals), 13 AVL (automatic vehicle locators), and 13 DVR (digital vehicle repeater) installed equipment. Third, the Fire Department is estimating that the city’s portion of the required infrastructure expansion at $1.2 million.
• Fleet expansion for Police and Fire
  This request is to procure three additional engines to support a backup fleet of emergency apparatus in an expanding department. The department currently has three backup engines (2 bought in 2001, 1 bought in 1993) available for training and routine or unplanned maintenance of existing frontline apparatus. It is anticipated that the 1993 engine will be surplused in the near future. This request is for one engine in FY2011, two in FY2015 (assumes two additional stations for a total of nine) and two in FY2018 (assumes three additional stations for a total of 12). The addition of these engines would achieve a 2.5:1 ratio front line to backup apparatus (assumes a ladder tender backs up a ladder).
