DISCUSSION
Low Bid Qualification and Recommended Award to Souza Construction Inc.
On February 20, 2020, bids were opened for the Marsh Street Bridge Replacement project
(Project). Only one bid was received and was under the Engineer’s Estimate of $4,480,000. The
bid from Souza Construction Inc. of San Luis Obispo, at $4,335,572 is the apparent low bid.

Construction
$4,480,000 $4,335,572
Staff reviewed the bid documents, legal requirements, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise
(DBE) goal documentation, and concluded that the apparent low bidder provided the lowest cost
responsive bid. Staff therefore recommends awarding the construction contract to Souza
Construction Inc. for the Project.
Traffic Impacts of Marsh Street Bridge Project and Public Outreach
1. Plan to Address Needed Traffic Disruption
For many months, the replacement of the Marsh Street Bridge will result in the temporary
disruption to downtown traffic flows – traffic will be detoured around the project site. As noted in
the figure below, Marsh Street, from the west side of the bridge (midblock) to the intersection of
Santa Rosa Street, will be closed to all forms of through traffic but with access to the businesses
located adjacent to the project.
Packet Page 89
Item 9
During construction, vehicular, bus, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic on Marsh Street, will follow a
detailed traffic detour plan (see below). The plan diverts traffic around the bridge construction site
while still providing access and parking to the businesses adjacent to the project. Given the one-
way directional flow of Marsh Street, beginning at Marsh Street and Highway 101, directional
signage will be placed to alert motorists well in advance of the approaching detour and offer detour
routes to “get around the construction”. Modifications to traffic signals, street striping, and the
removal of parking on some blocks, will assist in keeping traffic flowing throughout the downtown
corridor (including cyclists) and will be closely monitored during construction with adjustments
made to address unexpected impacts.
Signage will also play an important factor in alerting the public that the businesses adjacent to the
Marsh Street Bridge will remain open during construction. The portion of Marsh Street accessible
from the intersection of Osos Street to the bridge will be converted to two-way traffic with 30-
minute free parking available for customers.
Public Outreach & Information
With a project that will have a major impact to the residents and visitors of San Luis Obispo, a
public outreach campaign is of utmost importance. The Project includes funds for communications
and Verdin Marketing, a consultant as part of the Construction Management team, will provide that
service. To notify residents, visitors and businesses about the start of this Project, a Fact Sheet has
been developed (Attachment C). Further, the City’s Contract Communications Coordinator has
posted on social media with general information about the upcoming project with photos and the
detour plan from the Fact Sheet. A broader communication plan to effectively disseminate Project
status, upcoming impacts, and details is being developed by Verdin. This plan will inform the public
of the Project benefits and the impacts and will be distributed via the City’s social media platforms,
Downtown SLO and television/radio outlets, among others. Upon Council’s authorization of award,
staff will immediately work with the Contractor to set a project start date, and that information will
be shared with the public via the communications plan that will be available and regularly updated
through the City’s e-notification system and web updates.

Previous Council Action
On November 19, 2019, the City Council authorized the execution of extension agreements and
temporary construction easements with the property owners adjacent to the Marsh Street Bridge.
On September 17, 2019, the City Council approved staff to advertise the Project for construction
bids and authorized the City Manager to award a construction contract to the lowest responsible
bidder (Attachment B).
On July 16, 2019, the City Council approved a Request for Proposals and authorized staff to
advertise for Construction Management Services for the Project. Council also delegated contract
award authority to the City Manager.
On October 16, 2018, the City Council appropriated an additional $1,406,160 in grant funding to
match the total Project amount allocated by Caltrans.
On August 21, 2018, the City Council approved the Temporary Construction and Permanent
Easement Agreements with the property owners adjacent to the Marsh Street Bridge.
On January 9, 2018, the City Council, in closed session, authorized staff to enter into property
acquisition negotiations with the properties adjacent to the Marsh Street Bridge.
On May 2, 2017, the City Council approved adoption of the Final Environmental Impact Report.
On January 22, 2013, the City Council approved the replacement of the Marsh Street Bridge.
Policy Context
As the City Council approved the advertisement for construction of this Project and the bridge
replacement continues to be a high City priority, staff requests the Council approve the award of
a contract so that construction work can begin in April 2020.
Per the 2015 Financial Management Manual, Page 225-2, Council must authorize change orders
in excess of $100,000. Staff are recommending that Council delegate this authority to the City
Manager to minimize risks of procedural delay to the project. Change Orders would only be
authorized if the increases are within available budget.
Per the 2015 Financial Management Manual, Page 255-2, Council must authorize amendments to
consultant service contracts in excess of $50,000. Staff are also recommending that Council
delegate this authority to the City Manager to minimize risks of service gaps to the Project
should unforeseen construction delays or extensions occur related to above referenced contract
change orders. Amendments would only be authorized if the increases are within available
budget.
Public Engagement
The Project was identified and included in the 2015-17 Financial Plan and identified as a Council
Goal.

CONCURRENCE
Construction has been approved to proceed by the California Department of Transportation.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The City Council approved adoption of the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) on May
2, 2017. In addition to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) approval with the FEIR,
environmental permitting was completed in December 2019 with the Department of Fish &
Wildlife, the Regional Water Quality Control Board, the Army Corps of Engineers and the State
Historic Preservation Office.

Marsh Street Bridge Replacement, Specification No. 90480
The Project was approved as part of the 2015-17 Financial Plan. Currently, there is $6,559,048
in the project account, enough to fund the construction award and other associated costs of this
project identified in the table. This project is 89% funded by the Highway Bridge Program
(HBP) grant funding with a 11% City Local Revenue Measure match. Any funding leftover
upon the completion of the Project will be returned to Caltrans.
Packet Page 92
Item 9
ALTERNATIVES
Deny or defer executing the contract. The City Council could choose to not authorize or defer
construction. Staff does not recommend this alternative. The City would be unable to proceed
with the construction phase. Construction would be delayed until 2021 with additional costs for
renewed easements with the adjacent property owners and extension of the contract for
Construction Management Services. Due to this significant delay, Caltrans could suspend the
project funding and require reimbursement for funds already spent.

ARTICLE IV INDEMNIFICATION: The Contractor shall indemnify, defend with legal
counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, employees and
volunteers from and against all liability, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without
limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of
litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with the Contractor’s negligence,
recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to
comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such loss or damage
which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of the City. Should
conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both the City
and the Contractor, or should the City otherwise find the Contractor’s legal counsel
unacceptable, then the Contractor shall reimburse the City its costs of defense, including
without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of
litigation. The Contractor shall promptly pay any final judgment rendered against the City
(and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by
a trier of fact to have been the result of the Contractor’s negligent, reckless or wrongful
performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are
intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California
and will survive termination of this Agreement.
The Contractor obligations under this section apply regardless of whether such claim,
charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment,
civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee.
However, without affecting the rights of the City under any provision of this agreement, the
Contractor shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless the City for liability
attributable to the active negligence of AGENCY, provided such active negligence is
determined by agreement between the parties or by the findings of a court of competent
jurisdiction. In instances where the City is shown to have been actively negligent and where
the City’s active negligence accounts for only a percentage of the liability involved, the
obligation of the Contractor will be for that entire portion or percentage of liability not
attributable to the active negligence of the City.
ARTICLE V. It is further expressly agreed by and between the parties hereto that should
there be any conflict between the terms of this instrument and the bid of said Contractor,
then this instrument shall control and nothing herein shall be considered as an acceptance
of the said terms of said bid conflicting herewith.

MARSH STREET BRIDGE REPLACEMENT
PROJECT
At the turn of the 20th Century, most bridges were constructed of wood or steel. In 1909, a civil
engineer named John Leonard designed a bridge for San Luis Obispo made from concrete with
reinforced steel, an innovative method at the time. Today, this method is utilized to construct
the majority of new and replaced road and highway bridges in California.
The Marsh Street Bridge, located between Osos Street and Santa Rosa Street at the San Luis
Obispo Creek crossing, has stood for over a hundred years; however, in 2008, a bridge inspection
by Caltrans determined that the bridge was structurally deficient to the point where repair or
replacement was necessary. Damage was identified that affected the structural stability of the
bridge and would eventually lead to its closure.

Item 9
In 2013, the City reviewed options for repairing or replacing the bridge. A complete replacement
of the bridge was determined to be the best option for longevity and cost‐savings. The design of
the bridge was started the same year with rigorous requirements for bridge safety, sensitivity to
the adjacent businesses, and protection of the environment and wildlife surrounding the bridge.
Along with replacement of the bridge, an aging and deteriorating sewer main underneath the
bridge will be replaced with a more efficient line. Additionally, to highlight the historical
significance of the original bridge, new lighting will be installed that will replicate the original
kerosene fixtures what would be lit every evening. The new pedestrian lighting poles will be
equipped with energy‐efficient LED fixtures.
Construction of the new bridge is anticipated to begin in April and continue until the end of
December. This 9‐month duration may be extended if unforeseen delays occur during the
construction work. While it will be inconvenient and at times frustrating, the construction of the
new bridge requires the closure of Marsh Street to vehicles and pedestrians from the bridge to
the Santa Rosa Street intersection. Because Marsh Street is a main corridor heading into
Downtown SLO, signage will start at the Highway 101 off‐ramp and continue along Marsh Street
to alert motorists of the closure and provide a number of options to detour around the
construction site. The street signals along Marsh Street will be adjusted to accommodate the
detour.
For those businesses along that block of Marsh Street near the construction area, they will be
OPEN! The parking lots for Merrill Lynch, New Times and Pacific Western Bank will be accessible
as well as 30‐minute free parking for Sunset North Carwash, The Photo Shop and True West
Tattoo. Due to its proximity to the bridge, the entrance to the DaVita Dialysis Center will be
closed but access to their parking lot will be temporarily from Pacific Street. Cheng Park will
remain open as well.
