This is a Project Description and Design Standards document for the City's Nicklaus Drive ADA Ramp Remediation Project in New Mexico. The project involves the removal of existing ADA-deficient curb ramps and construction of parallel directional and diagonal parallel curb ramps along Nicklaus Drive from Lakeview Way to Panorama Heights Drive. Construction activities include replacement of curb ramps, portions of valley gutter as required, and reconstruction of ramps to meet current ADA requirements consistent with NMDOT ADA Pedestrian Standard Details as shown on project plans. The project requires coordination with affected businesses through Public Coordination Letters delivered to any business before work commences at their access entrance, following Public Notice and Communication Requirements under Classification "D." The scope encompasses comprehensive remediation of the entire corridor to achieve full ADA compliance.

The document serves as technical guidance for contractors regarding design standards, construction methodology, and compliance requirements for the ramp reconstruction work. Bidders must familiarize themselves with NMDOT ADA Pedestrian Standard Details and project-specific plans to prepare accurate construction estimates. Public coordination and notification protocols are mandatory elements of project execution, requiring contractors to manage communication with business owners and the public throughout the construction period.
