Engineering department recommends multiple professional services contracts for I‑490, bridge and plaza design work
Summary
The engineering department recommended four professional engineering service awards — for I‑490 construction management, a bridge reconstruction design, plaza design conversions to barrier‑free plazas and on‑call ITS design work.
Engineering staff presented four professional engineering services contract award recommendations on Oct. 22. The items were taken as a group by the committee and recommended for placement on the board agenda.
Recommended awards included: Illinois Construction and Environmental Consulting for construction management services on the new I‑490 corridor between Foster and Devon in the amount of $5,550,000; GFT Infrastructure Inc. for bridge reconstruction design on the Canadian National Railroad over the Reagan Memorial Tollway (I‑88) for $7,270,899.60; Millhouse Engineering & Construction Inc. for plaza improvement design work on the Jane Addams (I‑90) and Reagan Memorial (I‑88) Tollways for $2,493,027.65; and Delta Engineering Group for an on-call ITS design services contract for $3,000,000.
Staff noted each firm committed to exceed DBE and veteran goals where applicable and cited partnering/mentor-protege arrangements (for example, SWE Solutions participating in reverse partnering arrangements). The committee consolidated consideration of items 3 through 6 and approved placement of the group on the October board agenda.
