the corridor segment between Ball Street and Bellaire Drive with additional pedestrian

Parkway project. However, the project still falls under the NCTCOG program and
requires compliance with NCTCOG processes.
Phase II extends from Bellaire Drive to Main Street with a continuation of the roadway
improvements as well as the alignment adjustment at Church Street to align with Ira E.
Woods Avenue. The project includes the potential for additional pedestrian amenities in
the corridor. This increased level of pedestrian amenities' design cost is a separate line
item that can be utilized at the direction of the City Council.
NCTCOG has just recently issued a Notice to Proceed to us that allows us to begin
design of this project.
Staff interviewed two engineering firms with in-house surveying capabilities for this
project and Pacheco Koch was the preferred firm.
Staff recommends approval.
