The Public Works Department of the City of Costa Mesa (City) is requesting proposals for professional engineering services for the design of the Citys Center Street Pedestrian Crossing and Circulation Improvements project. Placentia Avenue is a 4-lane Primary Arterial with a continuous two-way left-turn lane and with directional Class IV separated bicycle facilities (Cycle Tracks). The posted speed limit along Placentia Avenue within the project limits is 35 miles per hour (mph). At the intersection of Placentia Avenue and Center Street, there are retail land uses on the northwest and northeast corners of the intersection and residential properties on the southwest and southeast corners. Center Street is a 2-lane local residential street with single family homes east of Center Street and multi-family housing west of Center Street. Center Street has on-street parking on both sides of the street and has a posted speed limit of 25 mph. The purpose of the project is to facilitate pedestrian crossing movements at the intersection of Placentia Avenue and Center Street and further improve bicycle and pedestrian safety. The City of Costa Mesa would like to procure professional engineering services for the Center Street Pedestrian Crossing and Circulation Improvements (Project) to design a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon Signal (Also known as HAWK signal) on Placentia Avenue at Center Street (Exhibit A). The project includes a new curb extension (bulb-out) at the northwest corner of Placentia Avenue and Center Street to supplement the new crossing. The project will also consist of new signing and striping, slurry seal, new curb ramps, sidewalk, landscaping, parkways and utility relocations (as needed).
