SUMMARY:
Attached is a Resolution for City Council consideration approving a Professional
Services Agreement with MS2 concerning professional services associated with the
Pueblo Area Council of Governments (PACOG) – Metropolitan Planning Organization
Traffic Volume and Crash Analysis Reporting Software and Consulting Services.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City solicited proposals from qualified transportation software companies to provide
an upgrade to the Pueblo Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) crash analysis and
traffic count databases and to integrate the software with the existing database systems
including the Geographic Information System (GIS). The services cover software
licenses and set up, data migration and system customizations, training, and system
hosting and support for a one year period. The previous five years of traffic counts and
accident data will be imported into the software program to provide historical traffic
counts and accident history. The traffic counts data from roadways outside the City
within unincorporated Pueblo County will also be added into the data system so that
information can be available for the PACOG transportation planning area. The City
Urban Transportation Planning Division and City Transportation Department have
reviewed the proposal, and have determined that the proposal meets the requirements
for responsiveness, time sensitivity, and cost to complete the Project.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The $76,448 cost for the crash analysis and traffic counting software and other
consulting services will be paid from the Urban Transportation Planning Projects
Budget, Projects TP1422 and TP1423.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The City staff consulted with the Traffic Counting and Crash Monitoring section of the
Colorado Department of Transportation Planning prior to recommending the purchase
of the traffic counting and crash monitoring software programs.
ALTERNATIVES:
Not Applicable.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Resolution.
