Given that this temporary installation will benefit the detour I routing for the Trunk Highway 101 project, MnDOT has agreed to loan the City the necessary hardware, i.e. signal controller, poles and signal faces at no charge. This in itself is a substantial savings to the City. The City of Chanhassen does, however, have the responsibility of contracting for the installation of this hardware. Given I that the West 78th Street Detachment and Downtown Improvement Project has a contract for the installation of permanent traffic signals which are expected to be installed in late August, this temporary signal work effort can be most expeditiously handled as a change order with the electrical subcontractor on the project. This 1 temporary signal system is needed to be operational in approximately 4 weeks to accommodate the Trunk /c/ Highway detour routing. It is therefore recommended that the City Council approve Change Order No. 1 to the West 78th Street I Detachment and Downtown Improvement Project No. 92 -3 for the installation of the temporary traffic signal at West 78th Street and Great Plains Boulevard in the amount of $30,719.66.
