SUMMARY:
Colorado Municip
creates Project Account CI2430 for Grand and 13th Roundabout, transfers $165,000 for
the required 10% match from Project Account HUAN01, and budgets and appropriates
funds totaling $1,650,000 for the Project.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
This Ordinance accepts the Federal Highway Safety Improvements Program (HSIP)
grant award for Grand and 13th Roundabout.
The City submitted a Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program grant for
improvements at the intersection of Grand Avenue and 13th Street in 2023. Despite the
fact this is a signalized intersection, 62% of the crashes were broadsides (front to side)
with one being a fatality. Because of the high percentage of broadsides at this
intersection, it is a good candidate for a roundabout. The Federal Highway
Administration has identified the roundabout construction as one of the most significant
accident countermeasure concepts and current speed studies of existing Pueblo
roundabouts have shown average speeds in the low 20 miles per hour (MPH) range.
The intersection of Grand Avenue and 13th Street is in close proximity to Parkview
Medical Center and Mineral Palace Park. This improvement will enhance the safety of
drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians of all ages and abilities.
The Department of Public Works has reviewed and is familiar with the grant application,
award, and associated draft agreement, and to the best of our knowledge and belief,
the City has the present ability to comply with all monetary expenditures, special
conditions, certifications and assurances therein contained.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The matching funds in the amount of $165,000.00 will be transferred from Project
Account HUAN01, Street Resurfacing to Project Account CI2430, Grand Ave. & 13th
Roundabout. Funds in the amount of $1,650,000.00 shall be budgeted and
appropriated for Project Account CI2430.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None.
ALTERNATIVES:
Currently, there are no alternatives for completing the improvements without the
funding from the Highway Safety Improvements Program funds.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Ordinance.
