The Engineering & Property Management (E&PM) project team managed the South Boulevard Sidewalk Project through the stages listed below. Specific work was conducted during each stage with an emphasis on public involvement during the planning and design phases.
Planning & Design Phase (February 2004 - Summer 2005)
City staff worked with HDR, Inc. to plan and design the sidewalk project. The plans were based on safety, cost benefits, traffic analysis and a public involvement process. The public involvement process allowed citizens and nearby businesses to provide input at public meetings. Two public meetings were held.
Real Estate Phase (Winter 2004 - Spring 2005)
The City's Real Estate staff worked with citizens and businesses to acquire right of way and property easements needed for construction work.
Bid Phase (Summer 2005)
During the bid phase, final specifications were prepared and quantities of material were determined. The City of Charlotte followed the North Carolina state regulations and selected DOT Construction, the lowest responsible bidder.
Construction Phase (Completed Winter 2005)
E&PM staff worked closely with the contractor and property owners to ensure right of way agreements were followed.
