PROJECT DESCRIPTION/SERVICES REQUESTED

The project scope of work includes Phase 500, Phase 600, and Phase 700 Professional Architectural and Engineering services for design of a new pedestrian bridge for the Iron Belle / North Country Trail at the Michigan Department of Natural Resource’s Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park.

The Iron Belle / North Country Trail is proposed to be re-routed into the Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park much further to the east than it currently is. In order to accommodate the trail re-route, a pedestrian bridge is proposed over the Little Iron River. The location of this bridge is in Ontonagon, County, T50N, R43W, Section 11 (N 46 degrees 44.81’, W 89 degrees 38.35’). The bank full width of the stream is approximately 31’. The distance from the top of one bank to the top of the other bank is approximately 63’. The south bank is approximately 15’ high. The north bank is approximately 10’ high. Both the north bank and the south bank are approximately a 1:1 slope from top of bank to toe of bank/toe of slope.

The bridge is proposed to be ADA compliant and is intended to be used for pedestrian use only. The bridge should allow for aesthetics similar to what you would expect to find in a wilderness setting. The bridge is not proposed within the Designated Wilderness Area portion of the park.

Provide a complete PSC Proposal for all required Professional Architectural and Engineering Services in compliance with the State of Michigan, Department of Technology Management and Budget MDTMB Project Statement Form (DMB427) and MDTMB form 430.

Provide a design schedule through Phase 500 and include:

1) One pre - design kick off meeting site visit, one 50% plan review meeting, one 90% plan review meeting, and one 100% complete Phase 500 plan verification submittal shall be required. The design kick off meeting shall be held at Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park Headquarters building and include an on-site walkthrough of the project. The 50% and 90% plan review meetings shall be conducted by Go- To meeting or another electronic format. A 100% plan submittal to DTMB and the DNR is required for verification of the 90% plan review comments being incorporated; a formal 100% complete plan review meeting is not required. The 50% and 90% plan review will provide the DNR and DTMB 10 working days to review the plans. The 100% plan submittal will provide 5 working days for verification. Include all required agendas, documents and construction estimates per the DTMB contract. Construction completion is desired prior to winter 2019.

Professional Services shall include, but are not limited to the following:

- Phase 500, 600, and 700 design services.

- All applicable permits, plan reviews, standards and codes are required to be met by the project.

The scope of the Phase 500 design shall include the following scope items:

• Topographic survey of the proposed project location and stream crossing.

• Site survey

• Site soil investigations and analysis. State the proposed method in your PSC proposal.

• Obtaining the necessary construction easements to allow for PSC, sub-consultant, and contractor access to the site.

• DEQ inland lakes and streams permit application preparation and submittal.

• Design of an ADA compliant pedestrian bridge.

• Phase 500 design of bridge with detailed cost estimates for construction at 50% and 90% complete design.

• Design of a trail approach for 50’ in advance of each side of the bridge.

The scope of the Phase 500 design will not include design of the trail reroute from either direction beyond the trail approaches.

Schedule Phase 500 design to be 100% complete no later than July 15, 2019, an earlier Phase 500 date is requested, PSC to provide schedule with this RFP. Construction completion is desired prior to winter 2019.

Additional Considerations:

The project designer shall be responsible for verifying and gathering accurate base information, preparation of all necessary construction documents, approval of these documents by the required governing agencies and final as-built record drawings. Approval of the plans and specifications by MDNR, DTMB and LARA Plan Review is also required.
