Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City of Hastings, Nebraska is seeking proposals from qualified applicants for a Barriers to Universal Mobility Study of the existing sidewalk network. This project will include an inventory and assessment of the existing sidewalk network within the city, and development of a GIS based compilation of existing conditions and phased improvement plans. Establish evaluation criteria and scoring system for sidewalks with the input of City Staff and members of the Complete Streets Committee. Scoring shall prioritize needed improvements to sidewalks and trails based on usage, physical condition, and ADA compliance. Using the most recent “Healthy Communities Policy Guide” of the American Planning Association, incorporate health community design concepts and tools into the prioritization methodology. Evaluate up to 750 blocks of trail and/or sidewalks. Evaluate the existing physical conditions of sidewalks/trails for: width of surfacing, obstructions in path of sidewalk or trail, type of surfacing, and sampling of cross slope per block. Determine whether curb ramps exist and evaluate compliance with current ADA standards. Items to be evaluated and recorded include: cross slope, width of travel path, presence of detectable warning panels, direction of ramp/crossing, and presence of obstructions to path. Score each intersection for prioritization of future improvements. Compile data graphically on a GIS system. Provide coded maps identifying relative needed improvements to bring the reviewed system into compliance with ADA and walking standards.
