Executive Summary: 
 

Springinsguth Road between Schaumburg Road and Weathersfield Way is a major collector in western Schaumburg that is a four-lane cross section.  Sidewalks are provided on both the east and west sides of the road.  There is no dedicated on-street parking within the corridor, though it is allowed with some restrictions.

 

The segment of Springinsguth Road between Weathersfield Way and Schaumburg Road is primarily surrounded by residential land uses, though some commercial properties are located at the north end of the corridor.  Less than one block north of Weathersfield Way is Campanelli elementary school, which is served by a dedicated school crossing for pedestrians on Springinsguth Road.

 

Between Weathersfield Way and Schaumburg Road, the village is seeking to reconstruct the roadway and replace undersized water main, while also improving bicycle and pedestrian accommodations.  As a separate project, the village plans to resurface the roadway and improve bicycle and pedestrian accommodations south of Weathersfield Way.  With both projects planned for construction 2029, village staff will be soliciting public input for both segments of Springinsguth Road.  Staff will incorporate feedback from the public to guide their proposed improvements.

  

Consultant Selection

Staff received proposals from ten qualified consulting firms.  Staff reviewed the proposals based on the experience and qualifications of the project team, relevant experience, and project approach as summarized below.  Based on these criteria, staff recommends Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. to complete Phase I Preliminary Engineering for the Springinsguth Road Improvements project. 

 

Kimley-Horn submitted a scope and cost proposal in the amount of $346,435 for Phase I Preliminary Engineering for Springinsguth Road Improvements.  A detailed scope and breakdown of the costs is attached. The village budgeted a total of $450,000 for this project in FY25.  Based on the attached cost proposal, this phase of the project would be $103,565 under the budgeted amount of $450,000.  Funds for Phase I of this project will be paid from the Vital Streets and Utility funds, though staff will pursue grant funding for future phases of engineering and construction.

 Recommended Action:
 

The Village Manager recommends that the Transportation Committee recommend the Village Board authorize the Village Manager and Village Clerk to execute an agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. of Warrneville, IL for Phase I Preliminary Engineering Services for Springinsguth Road Improvements in the amount of $346,435.00, and approve the required Resolution.
