BACKGROUND: The City trails construction crew is working on the 2 -mile long Niokaska Creek Trail connecting Gulley Park to Mud Creek Trail at Old Missouri Road. This new 12 -foot -wide concrete trail will provide trail access to Gulley Park and the Razorback Regional Greenway for over 4,000 residents located within '/z mile of the new trail. DISCUSSION: Providing safe street crossings for our trails is important to the safety and enjoyment of the trail system. The Niokaska Creek Trail will intersect Old Wire Road just west of Crossover Road. The existing Niokaska Creek drainage structure was evaluated to be used for the trail crossing, however the flood study determined this option is not feasible. Instead, a new precast concrete tunnel is proposed to be installed just east of the existing drainage structure. This new tunnel will be 14 feet wide and 9 feet tall providing safe and comfortable passage under Old Wire Road. With this bid award, the City will purchase the precast concrete box culvert sections delivered to the site for installation by the City in-house trail construction crew. Installation of the tunnel is planned for the summer of 2019. BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: Two bidders responded to Bid #19-28 for the precast concrete box culverts and the low bidder is Scurlock Industries. Funding is budgeted for the purchase of the precast concrete tunnel from the trail development program for the Niokaska Creek Trail.
