Summary
The committee approved a task order with SRF for a Donna Drive traffic safety analysis not to exceed $27,000; staff said observations will occur before school ends and funding will come from the city's pedestrian safety program budget.
The Middleton Finance & Personnel Committee approved Task Order 26-123.1 with SRF for a Donna Drive traffic safety analysis in an amount not to exceed $27,000.
Staff said observations will be scheduled before the school year ends so the study captures typical pickup and drop‑off patterns; the intent is to evaluate student and pedestrian safety at the Donna Drive/Century Avenue intersection and nearby circulation. Committee members asked why staff did not pick the lowest bidder; staff explained that SRF's proposal prioritized pedestrian safety and the firm had strong relevant experience. Funding for the study will come from the city's pedestrian safety program budget.
The committee approved the task order and asked staff to coordinate with the neighborhood traffic-management program where applicable and to share timing for field observations.
