Discussion regarding relinquishment of Rosemead Blvd, which is under Caltrans Jurisdiction. Municipalities sometimes seek relinquishment of all or portions of state highways running through their jurisdictions to gain local control over the land uses on or adjacent to these roadways and to reduce the cost and delay associated with gaining Caltrans'approval,and being subject to its decisions,whenever changes are sought. Caltrans Project Development Procedures Manual, ARTICLE 3 Policies indicate Highways or local roads under Caltrans'jurisdiction that do not serve regional or statewide transportation needs should be relinquished to the appropriate local agency. There are several benefits to relinquishing facilities that are no longer required to serve regional and statewide needs: • An increase in local agencies' responsiveness to community interest in the administration, planning, construction, and operation of facilities, resulting in a cost savings to taxpayers by eliminating the need for State encroachment permits • A reduction of on-going maintenance costs for the State • A reduction in tort liability for the State • A decrease in State incident response efforts • Decreased competition for capital funds for regional and statewide improvements Caltrans is responsible for relinquishing roads well maintained and in operable condition. Major widening or other improvements (except safety improvements) should not be considered if the improvement would cause betterment of the facility beyond the state of good repair. In these cases,the city or county may elect to pay the portion of the cost to upgrade the facility geometrically or structurally over and above that which is justified. When relinquishing a State highway, there may be occasions when it is appropriate for Caltrans to perform construction work or to provide financial contributions to the local agency to ensure that the facility is well maintained and in operable condition. Construction work or financial contributions may be considered if they are in the best interest of the State. • Adjacent segments of Rosemead Boulevard have been relinquished to local jurisdictions. • Rosemead Boulevard through the City of Rosemead maybe a potential candidate for relinquishment.

Traffic Signal Improvements [San Gabriel Walnut Grove at Mission, Rosemead and Valley] ($6,000,000) PROJECT ID:MR4.3.2.20;PROJECT TYPE 3:Intelligent Transportation Systems[ITS]Projects The projects were identified, and were awarded LACMTA Measure R funding,as part of a broader package of projects known as the SR-710 Mobility Improvement Projects (MIPS).The SR-710 MIPS are the result of reallocated Measure R Funds for the SR-710 North Project to new mobility improvement projects within the San Gabriel Valley subregion.These projects are consistent with the purpose and need of the Gap Closure Project to relieve congestion on local streets along the SR-710 alignment between Interstates 10 and 210,with the highest priority for projects proximate to the Interstate 10 freeway. In addition to METRO,these projects will require close coordination with Caltrans and County of Los Angeles. The improvements at 1-10/Rosemead Boulevard Freeway Westbound Ramps (Project ID: MR4.1.2.08), and at I- 10/Walnut Grove Avenue Freeway Westbound Ramps (Project ID: MR4.1.2.09) are within Caltrans'jurisdiction, and will require plan review, processing, approvals and permits through Caltrans. Also, Rosemead Boulevard is a State Route under Caltrans'jurisdiction. All traffic signal improvements along Rosemead Boulevard will also require plan review, processing, approvals and permits through Caltrans. Another important element of the Adaptive Traffic/Traffic Responsive Control Improvements is coordination with Los Angeles County for the following projects: • Adaptive Traffic/Traffic Responsive Control Project, Garvey, Valley, San Gabriel, Walnut Grove and Rosemead (Project ID: MR4.3.2.19) • Traffic Signal Improvements, San Gabriel Walnut Grove at Mission, Rosemead and Valley (Project ID: M R4.3.2.20) As indicated in ATTACHMENT G-2, SPECIAL GRANT CONDITIONS of the Agreement with METRO and the City the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LACDPW) will be an active participant in this project with coordination of the City's overall traffic signal management system development and integration to the Countywide information exchange network(IEN). Coordination with the LACDPW will maximize the regional arterials corridor traffic operational performance and minimize any potential conflicts. A ■ '?

Approach and Scope of Work 1.11 General Approach: We have a structured approach to execute projects in an efficient manner that makes Transtech capable of providing the City with an efficient and quality product. Transtech has established guidelines and policies, including written manuals on quality control, project management, and design procedures for its staff and for its contract cities. These guidelines ensure a consistent approach to the execution of assignments undertaken by our organization in compliance with City's specific procedures,standards and requirements. The following paragraphs describe our general approach to deliver projects in an efficient and cost-effective manner. A project specific approach will be provided for each assigned project and will become part of the specific contract for the specific project. • Project Management: Our approach is to provide proactive management and attempt to identify potential issues and problems in advance and take corrective actions before they become problems. This requires extensive hands-on knowledge,experience and management skills of the people involved in managing the project. Our team members have extensive experience and proven track record in managing large and complex projects and bringing them to a completion on time and within budget. • Approach to Cost Control and Change Orders: We evaluate project costs and develop feasible mitigation measures to minimize additional costs. We work as a team to solve problems or make modifications in the field to address unforeseen conditions or owner generated changes in a cost-effective manner. • Approach to Scheduling and Timely Completion of Project and Schedule Recovery: The baseline schedule should properly identify the project scope, critical path, project milestones, target dates, phases and sequences of work, and activity durations. When significant activities show that they are slipping from the baseline, we work with the contractor to develop recovery plans. • Management of Documents: We use an electronic file management system. All construction forms,daily dairies,weekly statement of working days,etc.are stored in our electronic file system,and are per Caltrans documentation system. We provide these documents at the end of the project to the client in organized files as well as pdf files. • Safety and Security:We hold meetings with the contractor to review and discuss safety and security requirements,OSHA conformance,emergency security and safety procedures,and enforce security and safety responsibilities. • Funding Closeout: We prepare necessary closeout documentation required by the funding agencies, submit final reimbursement documentation,follow-up on the reimbursements,and final funds balance report. • Project Closeout: We recognize that closeout is an important part of the construction process. It signifies that the new facility structure is ready to use. We methodically handle all closeout tasks to ensure a smooth transition from construction to occupancy. • Methodology for Communication to Inform City on Work Progress: Key project team members will attend periodic project progress meetings with City staff throughout the project duration. • Electronic common project information and file sharing platform:We create and provide access to project participates a common project information and file sharing platform. Coordination with City: Key project team members will attend periodic project progress meetings with City staff throughout the project duration.We will maintain and establish and maintain a close working relationship with City staff. We will manage assigned projects, carefully control costs and resources, and complete assigned work on schedule. We will provide progress reports to the City at regular intervals. Contract Administration Approach: For construction contract administration,we follow guidelines described in Caltrans Local Assistance Procedures Manual(LAPM). Maintaining complete and accurate files is a very important aspect of managing federally funded projects. Generally,whenever the local agency is unable to produce requested data or information, it is assumed by reviewing personnel that the required actions were either never performed or not properly recorded.Organized project files can minimize these negative assumptions. Organization and content of the project file is one indicator of effective and efficient management of the project by the resident engineer. Community Information Approach: We also provide effective public outreach, including setting up an information web site,toll free project call number, project e- mail, hold community information meetings, provide public information via e-mails on web sites. TECHNICAL PROPOSAL For RFP No. 2020-11, Project Management Services TRANSTECh Related to SR-710 North Corridor Mobility Improvements Projects 1. Approach and Scope of Work 1.12 Community Involvement: Supporting civic and community activities demonstrates Transtech's commitment to the progress, health,and well-being of the communities we serve. This is something that we take pride in as a company. In services and partnership with our client Cities, we have a proven record of active engagement in City and Community events. This includes involvement or presence at City programs or events, supporting local businesses through the chamber, youth events, hosting workshops, sports, scholarship opportunities,community service, managing homelessness challenges, public safety, crime prevention, or any other community benefit that the City wishes us to be a part of.Our goal is not just to serve as an engineering consultant(which is what we are best at)but to also be an active partner with our clients and further enhance the City's reputation as an ideal community to live,invest, work, and play in. We are deeply committed to maintaining our partnership with our valued customers, its community, and remain open and enthusiastic to receiving input on how to best serve the City's needs today and in the future to further enhance the City's reputation as an ideal community to live,invest,work,and play in. Below are some recent CBE programs we have started,facilitated and/or were part of.

The above tools and services have been implemented at no additional cost to our client Cities.This service will also be extended to new cities at no additional cost. 10. Virtual Inspections have been implemented on a case by case basis for occupied buildings and home inspections by our Building and Safety Department. 11. Building inspections continue for non-occupied structures. 12. We have set up designated toll-free numbers with assigned operators and email distribution lists for continuity of virtual government services. DISCUSSION REGARDING RELINQUISHMENT OF ROSEMEAD BLVD, WHICH IS UNDER CALTRANS JURISDICTION Municipalities sometimes seek relinquishment of all or portions of state highways running through their jurisdictions to gain local control over the land uses on or adjacent to these roadways and to reduce the cost and delay associated with gaining Caltrans' approval, and being subject to its decisions,whenever changes are sought. Caltrans Project Development Procedures Manual,ARTICLE 3 Policies indicate Highways or local roads under Caltrans' jurisdiction that do not serve regional or statewide transportation needs should be relinquished to the appropriate local agency. There are several benefits to relinquishing facilities that are no longer required to serve regional and statewide needs: • An increase in local agencies' responsiveness to community interest in the administration, planning,construction, and operation of facilities, resulting in a cost savings to taxpayers by eliminating the need for State encroachment permits • . c srr �P TECHNICAL PROPOSAL For RFP No. 2020-11, Project Management Services TRANSTECh Related to SR-710 North Corridor Mobility Improvements Projects 1. Approach and Scope of Work 1.14 • A reduction of on-going maintenance costs for the State • A reduction in tort liability for the State • A decrease in State incident response efforts • Decreased competition for capital funds for regional and statewide improvements Caltrans is responsible for relinquishing roads well maintained and in operable condition. Major widening or other improvements (except safety improvements) should not be considered if the improvement would cause betterment of the facility beyond the state of good repair. In these cases,the city or county may elect to pay the portion of the cost to upgrade the facility geometrically or structurally over and above that which is justified. When relinquishing a State highway, there may be occasions when it is appropriate for Caltrans to perform construction work or to provide financial contributions to the local agency to ensure that the facility is well maintained and in operable condition. Construction work or financial contributions may be considered if they are in the best interest of the State. • Adjacent segments of Rosemead Boulevard have been relinquished to local jurisdictions. • Rosemead Boulevard through the City of Rosemead maybe a potential candidate for relinquishment. nsr ,• TECHNICAL PROPOSAL For RFP No. 2020-11, Project Management Services TRANSTECH Related to SR-710 North Corridor Mobility Improvements Projects 2.Project Team, Key Personnel,& Resumes .0 H i I _ W _ re 0 H L 0 a. 0 k E co a) I- U ., CO L a. •N Na, 00 til 14 Z " W 2.
