Red Flag Investigations, Ken Mcmullen
Purdue Road School
Early project-level environmental analysis can save time and money. A Red Flag Analysis reveals possible environmental issues prior to the start of the design process and adds greater certainty to the design and budgeting process. The analysis can be done as part of the long-range transportation plan or at the pre-design project level.

Alternate Bidding History And Requirements, Tom Duncan, David Holtz
Purdue Road School
On November 18, 2009 the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) approved the innovative contracting process of the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) for alternate pavement bidding on multiple projects. This process involves only one set of plans with the choice to bid either Portland Cement Concrete Pavement (PCCP), or Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) Pavement, or both typical pavement sections. A Present Worth (PW) cost was calculated for future maintenance costs of both pavement types using an established Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) Strategy. This PW cost was added to the respective pay items after the bids were opened, but the PW …

Collection of right-of-way (ROW) data for curb ramps and sidewalks to determine compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) can be a time consuming and labor intensive effort. To further complicate this, management and interpretation of the data, once collected, is an effort itself. This presentation will provide an example of how data was collected by DLZ Indiana, LLC for the City of Mishawaka. DLZ surveyed nearly 3,000 curb ramps and 250 miles of sidewalks in 2012 using Apple iPads and various software to manage the data. This presentation will document the parameters measured for curb ramps and sidewalks, …
