Reference: Proposed Traffic Signal Installation
Buffalo Grove Road /Thompson Boulevard
Dear Mr. Kuenkler:

In accordance with your request, we have estimated the fee for preparing contract plans and
specifications for a proposed traffic signal at the referenced intersection. Based on discussions
with the Lake County Division of Transportation, they have approved installation of a traffic
signal at this location.
The County will require that an Intersection Design Study (IDS) be completed prior to preparing
contract plans and specifications. The purpose of the IDS is to identify any geometric
improvements which may be required at the intersection. They are requiring left turn
channelization be provided on Thompson Boulevard which will necessitate widening on both legs
of Thompson. The corner radii may also need to be increased. The signal design will incorporate
the use of Autoscope equipment for vehicle detection. This is the County's current standard. In
addition, because the nearest signalized intersections to the north and south are each less than 1/2
mile away from Thompson Boulevard, we have included preparation of a traffic signal
interconnect plan between Deerfield Parkway and Aptakisic Road.
We have assumed that this project will not require additional detention in accordance with the
Lake County Stormwater Management Ordinances and have not included time for preparation of
permit applications or design of detention. If additional detention is required based on the
proposed geometry developed for the IDS, we will submit manhours and fee for that additional
work.
This proposal includes the services required to prepare the Intersection Design Study and the
contract plans, specifications and bidding documents. Should you desire that Civiltech
Engineering provide construction inspection services, we would prepare a separate proposal after
the scope of the proposed improvements have been identified.
Mr. Richard Kuenkler, P.E.

L SCOPE OF SERVICES
Following is our anticipated scope of work and estimated fee for the services:
1. Data Collection /Soil Borings - Perform A.M. and P.M. peak hour turning movement
counts at the intersection. This count will include both vehicle and pedestrian
movements. Obtain existing roadway and signal plans from LCDOT and utility atlases
from the Village and utility companies. This work item also includes completion of a
photolog at the intersection and pavement cores /soil borings on Thompson on each side of
Buffalo Grove Road. Schleede- Hampton and Associates will be used for obtaining the
pavement cores and soil borings. A copy of their proposal is attached.
2. Field Survey/Base Sheet Preparation - Perform field survey along Thompson Boulevard
from 500 feet east to 500 feet west of Buffalo Grove Road. The survey will also extend
approximately 100 feet north and south along Buffalo Grove Road. Prepare base sheets at
a scale of 1:20 for use in both the roadway design and the signal design. (Verification that
LCDOT will accept English units will be made prior to starting work.) Base sheets for the
traffic signal interconnect plan will be prepared using the existing roadway plans. A wheel
survey will also be completed to supplement information from the existing plans.
3. Pre -Final Contract Plans and Documents - Prepare pre -final plans, specifications, cost
estimate and bid documents. We anticipate the plans to include the following sheets:
Title Sheet
General Notes /Summary of Quantities
Typical Sections
Plan and Profile/Drainage and Utility Sheet
Traffic Signal Plan
Cable Plan, Sequence of Operations
Traffic Signal Interconnect Plan
Traffic Signal Interconnect Schematic
Details
Submit to LCDOT and the Village for review. Also submit to utility companies. Obtain
electrical service agreements.
4. Final Contract Plans and Documents - Meet with the Village and /or LCDOT to
discuss plan review, if required. Revise plans and specifications and resubmit to the
Village and LCDOT.
5. Advertisement for Bidders and Contract Administration Prepare advertisement for
bidders (to be published by the Village of Buffalo Grove) and notify prospective
contractors. Attend bid opening. Review bid proposals, tabulate bids and recommend
lowest responsible bidder. Administer execution of contract and contract performance
bond.

Re: Proposal for Highway Soils Survey
Buffalo Grove Road & Thompson Boulevard
Buffalo Grove, Illinois
Dear Ms. Meyerkord:
We are pleased to have the opportunity to .submit the following proposal for performance
of a soil survey for the proposed improvements on the referenced project,
Pf4iect Description and Scoop of Work
The proposed project from a soils exploration standpoint, will require the scope of work
outlined:
Widening of Thompson Boulevard east and west of Buffalo Grove Road to construct
left turn lanes at the intersection.
A total of two (2) profile borings, two (2) pavement cores to determine subgrade
and subsurface soil conditions and existing pavement sections along Thompson
Boulevard are anticipated for this project.
Method.,9f Performance - Field Wor
The typical subgrade soil survey exploration will be accomplished by performing auger
profile borings spaced at approximately 300 foot intervals along the proposed widening,
and at other points where significant problem areas are observed,
a) Soil survey borings will be extended to a depth of ten (10) feet sampling at 30
inch intervals or more frequently if required to sample all soil strata.
b) Laboratory testing will include moisture content determinations, consistency
(penetrometer value), determination on cohesive soil samples and
classification tests as required to identify major subgrade soil types.
C.)
Pavement cores will be made along each section of the roadways to determine the
general pavement section.

The soil survey, profile borings will be performed in compliance with the current State
of Illinois, Specification for Soil Survey; and the Soils Manual and Plan Preparation
Advisory No. 8 -3 -002.
Method of Performance - Analysis and Report
The boring information will be used to develop soils profile drawings or boring logs as
required which will be prepared showing the soil types and test data in accordance with
applicable specifications. We understand that reproducible copies of the plan and profile
showing existing and proposed grade will be provided by Civiltech for our plotting of the
soil profile.
The results of this field exploration and laboratory testing would be used in an analysis
and formulation of our recommendations. Major subject areas for our analysis,
recommendations and report would include;
1 . Identification of soil treatment areas.
2. General earthwork recommendations.
3. Existing pavement sections.
4. Soils criteria for input to the pavement design being done by the Design
Engineer.
A written report summarizing and presenting the data and recommendations will be
prepared by a Professional Engineer, licensed in the State of Illinois.
Timina
We will begin on work after notice to proceed. We plan on mobilizing and doing all the
borings concurrently. f=inal reports and profiles will be coordinated with Civiltech as
the base plan and profile drawings and other designs are completed.
Fee
We propose to provide this work at the unit rates quoted on the attached Schedule of
Services and Fees, Attachments 1.1 and 1.2. These estimated quantities and unit rates
are based on information as outlined in this proposal and experience on past projects.
On the basis of the above information, we estimate that these services can be provided
for a fee of; $ 1,964.00
