About this file
This document is a detailed Scope of Services contract for a Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) highway improvement project involving Protean Design Group as the consulting engineering firm. The project is located in Lake County, Florida, spanning 6.035 miles of State Road 25/US 27 from CR 561/Lake Minneola Shores/Southern Breeze Drive to north of O'Brien Road. The contract involves multiple agencies and utilities, including AT&T, City of Leesburg, City of Clermont, Bright House Networks, Progress Energy, and several other local utility companies.
The project scope encompasses a resurfacing and improvement project involving milling, roadway resurfacing, cross slope correction, guardrail upgrades, drainage modifications, and multi-modal transportation enhancements. Key components include milling 4" of mainline pavement, applying 3" of Type SP and FC-5 surface, adding bicycle keyholes at various right turn lanes, pedestrian sidewalk improvements, and drainage system modifications. The work includes retrofitting guardrails, reconstructing U-turn aprons, and updating signage and pavement markings. The project is designed to improve roadway safety, bicycle accessibility, and overall transportation infrastructure, with a focus on maintaining existing traffic flow and addressing specific roadway deficiencies identified during preliminary assessments.

LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design)
The intent of the LEED Green Building Rating System is the promotion of the design, construction and maintenance of buildings that are durable, healthy, affordable, and environmentally sound. This is achieved through an approach that looks not only at the building but also includes the surrounding area. Among the elements LEED includes are access to public transportation, energy usage, daylighting and views, indoor air quality, transportation, water usage, stormwater runoff, recycling, and renewable resources.
Prerequisites and credits are the two types of tasks required by LEED to rate a building’s environmental impact. Prerequisites are mandatory and must be achieved for a building to meet any certification level; however no points are earned for their completion. Points are earned for each credit that is achieved with points varying from credit to credit. Not all credits will be achievable due to external conditions while other credits will be too involved or costly to pursue. This is where the design team and the FDOT must determine what credits are to be pursued and the level of certification to strive to meet.
The State has set “Certified” as the minimum target level of certification for buildings, though several Department projects have strived for a LEED Green Building Rating of “Silver”.
Hours include the efforts to design and receive certification for buildings. These hours include all disciplines involved in the effort.

For all projects with ITS activities, the CONSULTANT shall follow the Rule 940 requirements and use a Systems Engineering approach for determining the requirements for the project. The CONSULTANT shall develop all necessary documents to support the Rule 940 requirements like Concept of Operations (ConOPS), Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP), Requirements Traceability Verification Matrix (RTVM) and others as deemed necessary by the Department.
Geographical Information System (GIS) Requirements: CONSULTANT shall include in the design the GIS data collection requirements and deliverables for integration with SunGuide software and other Department GIS based asset management applications like ITS FM software.
All design efforts shall be based on deploying “open architecture” subsystems, while remaining fully compatible with previous designs (as applicable) and the FDOT ITS Specifications. All ITS field devices and support systems shall be designed and located outside of the clear zone, or behind protective barrier, within the right of way. This includes cabinets, poles, and support hardware. Utility conflicts shall be identified and resolved during the design phase. The design shall minimize theft and vandalism. The CONSULTANT shall include in the design vandal resistant mechanisms to minimize theft.
The CONSULTANT shall provide additional redundant power and communications systems to minimize system downtime due to vandalism.
The CONSULTANT shall design the project subsystems such that they will be monitored and controlled from the local maintaining agencies TMC. The CONSULTANT shall ensure that all ITS field devices and ancillary components comply with the FDOT’s Approved Product List (APL) and are supported within the SunGuide software or other specified software, unless otherwise approved by the DEPARTMENT.
The CONSULTANT shall include in the design any required upgrade to the TMC central hardware, equipment racks, and equipment wiring, as directed by the FDOT project manager, to make the subsystems fully operations from the TMC facilities.
For projects with existing ITS, the CONSULTANT shall include in the design any required upgrade to existing ITS equipment to meet the latest FDOT standards, NEC requirements or as directed by the FDOT project manager and to make the subsystems fully operations from the TMC facilities.

Project Common Tasks
Project Common Tasks, as listed below, are work efforts that are applicable to many project activities, 4 (Roadway Analysis) through 35 (Geotechnical). These tasks are to be included in the project scope in each applicable activity when the described work is to be performed by the
CONSULTANT.
Cost Estimates: The CONSULTANT shall be responsible for producing a construction cost estimate and reviewing and updating the cost estimate when scope changes occur and/or at milestones of the project. Prior to 60% plans and completion of quantities, the DEPARTMENT’s Long Range Estimate (L.R.E.) system will be used to produce a conceptual estimate, according to District policy.
Once the quantities have been developed (beginning at 60% plans and no later than 90% plans) the CONSULTANT shall be responsible for inputting the pay items and quantities into TRNS*PORT PES (Proposal Estimating System) through the use of the DEPARTMENT’s Designer Interface for generating the summary of quantities and the FDOT’s in-house estimates. A Summary of Pay Items sheet shall be prepared with all required Phase II, III, and IV Plans submittals.
Technical Special Provisions: The CONSULTANT shall provide Technical Special Provisions for all items of work not covered by the Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction and the workbook of implemented modifications.
A Technical Special Provision shall not modify the first nine sections of the Standard Specifications and implemented modifications in any way. All modifications to other sections must be justified to the appropriate District Specifications Office to be included in the project's specifications package.
The Technical Special Provisions shall provide a description of work, materials, equipment and specific requirements, method of measurement and basis of payment. Proposed Technical Special Provisions will be submitted to the District Specifications Office for initial review at the time of the Phase III plans review submission to the DEPARTMENT’s Project Manager. This timing will allow for adequate processing time prior to final submittal. The Technical Special Provisions will be reviewed for suitability in accordance with the Handbook for Preparation of Specification Packages. The District Specifications Office will forward the Technical Special Provisions to the District Legal Office for their review and comment. All comments will be returned to the CONSULTANT for correction and resolution. Final Technical Special Provisions shall be digitally signed and sealed in accordance with applicable Florida Statutes.
The CONSULTANT shall contact the appropriate District Specifications Office for details of the current format to be used before starting preparations of Technical Special Provisions.
Field Reviews: The CONSULTANT shall make as many trips to the project site as required to obtain necessary data for all elements of the project.
Technical Meetings: The CONSULTANT shall attend all technical meetings necessary to execute the Scope of Services of this contract. This includes meetings with DEPARTMENT and/or Agency staff, between disciplines and subconsultants, such as access management meetings, pavement design meetings, local governments, railroads, airports, progress review meetings (phase review), and miscellaneous meetings. The CONSULTANT shall prepare, and submit to the DEPARTMENT’s Project Manager for review, the meeting minutes for all meetings attended by them. The meeting
