7 Project Overview Part 2 Part 2 had a completion date of September 30 th Began working on Part 2 in August of Classified as rural with an average daily traffic (ADT) of 41,000. No daytime lane closures were permitted. All crack sealing and Micro Surfacing work was completed by mid-september 2015 without any issues. So what makes this project worthy of a ISSA President s Award?

8 3.88 miles long ADT of 191,663 Project Overview Part 1 Varies from 3 to 4 lanes in both the east and westbound directions Numerous on/off ramps that service other major thoroughfares. Double lane closure were only permitted between the hours of 9:00 pm and 5:00 am. Traffic restrictions outside of these times would be subject to a $200 per lane per minute penalty. (2 Lanes closed for 1 hour = $24,000 penalty) SCI and our subcontractors estimated over 125 nighttime lane closures.

9 Part 1 Value Engineering ODOT has a program called Valued Engineering Change Proposals or otherwise known as VECP. This program encourages contractors to submit a value engineering proposal to ODOT by splitting with the contractor all recognized savings. After a thorough review of the project in December of 2014, and with the guidance of the ODOT inspection team, we decided to develop a VECP for this project. Our main priorities when developing the VECP were: Improve safety on the project for our team members and the motoring public. Reduce the number of traffic interruptions to the motoring public. Improve the quality of Micro Surfacing by decreasing the number of cold joints. Incentivize our plan with a large monetary savings for ODOT

10 Part 1 Value Engineering Cont. In March of 2015, we submitted our VECP to ODOT, in which we proposed 2 weekend closures of I-670 eastbound and 2 weekend closures of I-670 westbound. We proposed closing of I-670 on Friday evening at 9:00 pm and having the road open to traffic by no later than 6:00 am Monday morning. As a part of the VECP we included a cost savings to ODOT in the amount of $121, The majority of the cost savings was due to an increase in productivity. In early April of 2015 the VECP we submitted was approved by ODOT and the City of Columbus.
