City Engr's Office - City -County Bldg., 300 W. Ash P.O. Box 746 Salina, KS 67401 Dear Sir: JOHN CARLIN, Governor January 11, 1985 Section 10-A Highway Performance Monitoring System We are requesting your assistance in the annual Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS) cost study. Enclosed is a computer listing of all HPMS sections in your city. Please use the HPMS section number (on the computer listing) in reporting improvement type and cost data for all non -Federal -Aid capital improvement projects completed in calendar year 1984 on HPMS sections. Since your capital improvement projects may not exactly correspond with HPMS sections, please include: 1) project beginning and ending point descriptions; 2) new bridge locations; and 3) route or street names and lengths. This will allow us to determine the prorated costs on HPMS sections only. An explanation of improvement types and costs are enclosed with the reporting'form. If no improvements were completed on HPMS sections, return the data sheet with the word "None" indicating this. We would appreciate your returning the data sheets to Verne L. Craig, Chief of Transportation Planning, State Office Building, Topeka, Kansas 66612 by February 1, 1985. If you have any questions, please call Harvey Hill of this office at (913) 296-3841. We appreciate your assistance and look forward to hearing from you. Yours truly, �/-� � .�7 Verne L. Craig, P.E.

Chief of Transportation Planning Kansas Department of Transportation State Office Building Topeka, Kansas 66612 Re: HPMS Cost Study Dear Mr. Craig: DONALD E. HOFF. P. E. ASST. CITY ENGINEER D. W. BASSETT TRAFFIC ENGINEER In reviewing your computer listing of all HPMS sections within our City limits, we have determined improvements were performed during the 1984 calendar year on only two (2) sections of the streets listed on the print-out. Construction was completed on HPMS Section #4695 and on HPMS Section #4675. Both of these sections were constructed as 85U -0295-03/M4816(007). Notice of Acceptance was issued by KDOT on August 22, 1984, but no final cost breakdown has been received by the City of Salina to date. We, therefore, can not supply these costs to you at this time. DH:mp Enc. If /nu need additional information at this time, please contact me. Sincerely, Don Ho f, P.E. MEMBER ...

Additionally, these data are used to determine the relative effectiveness of various improvement types as the basis of simulation model cost matrices, and to determine the magnitude and make-up of future Federal -aid highway programs. The costs reported here are actual expenditures for improvements. The following must be reported for each sample section having an improvement completed during the data year. The improve- ment types are shown in hierarchial order which should be followed in assigning improvement type. Type of Improvement -- Improvement types are as follows: 2) Relocation 3) -Reconstruction 4) Major Widening 5) Minor Widening 6) Restoration and Rehabilitation 7) Resurfacing 8) Bridge Replacement 9) Bridge rehabilitation 10) Safety and Traffic Engineering 11) Other Highway Improvements The type of improvement is determined by the nature of the construction rather than the source of funding. Only one type of improvement can be reported for a particular section in a given year. The relocation improvement type (code 2) should only'be used if the existing section is replaced by a section on new alignment and the original section is abandoned. Since code 2 will rarely be used, the majority of capital improvements will receive codes 3 through 11. Bridge replacement (code 8), bridge rehabilitation (code 9), safety and traffic engineering improvements (code 10), and other highway improvements (code 11) should only be used in cases where these improvements are being made as the sole improvements to the sections. If these improvements Ore staged construction associated with a more general improvement (code 3 through 7), the more general improvement code should be used. Improvement Costs -- The total improvement costs and its components are to be reported for each improvement. If two or more improvements were completed on a section for a particular year, the costs are added and the total for each cost element is reported, with the major type of improvement determined by the above mentioned hierarchy. The cost element categories are: 1) Preliminary and Construction Engineering 2) Right -of -Way and Utility Adjustments 3) Grading and Drainage 4) Base and Surface 5) Structure 6) Other 7) Total Cost w -2 - Code Improvement Type Definitions 2 RELOCATION - Construction of a facility on new location that replaces an existing route. The new facility carries all of the through traffic with the previous facility closed or retained as a land -service road only. 3 RECONSTRUCTION - Construction on approximate alignment of an existing route where old pavement structure is removed and replaced. Implies a complete rebuilding of an existing pavement structure to correct pavement deficiencies and/or to add capacity. Adjustment to existing horizontal and vertical alignment can be made and, where possible, work conforms to approved standards. Such reconstruction may be to the existing number of lanes or may include widening to provide continuous additional.iane(s) or dualizing, adding or revising interchanges or otherwise substantially changing the general character of the highway. 4 MAJOR WIDENING - Requires that one or more lanes be added to a facility. However, it is different from a reconstruction improvement in which a similar number of lanes are added in that the existing pavement struc- ture is salvaged. Also included, where necessary, is the resurfacing of.existing pavement and other incidental improvements such as drain- age and shoulder improvements. 5 MINOR WIDENING - The addition of 2 or more feet of width per lane to an existing facility without adding lanes. In many cases, the improve- ment will include resurfacing of the existing pavement and other incidental improvements such as shoulder and drainage improvements. The existing pavement structure is salvaged. 6 RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION - Implies a reworking (rather than replacement) of the pavement structure or bridge deck to return it to a reasonable condition. Generally, work is performed in accord- ance -with the design of the existing facility. The level of effort is significantly less than a reconstruction improvement. There may be some upgrading of unsafe features or other incidental work in con- junction with the restoration and rehabilitation. Typical improve- ments would include replacing spalled or malfunctioning joints; sub- stantial pavement undersealing when essentail for pavement stabilization prior to resurfacing; grinding/growing of rigid pavements; replacing deteriorated materials; reworking or strengthening bases or subbases; adding underdrains; and bridge deck repair. 7 RESURFACING - Placement of at least 3/4 inch of material over the exist- ing roadway or bridge deck to improve serviceability or to provide additional strength. There may be minor widening of up to 2 feet, up- grading of unsafe features, and other indicental work in conjuction with resurfacing. Where surfacing is constructed by separate project as a final stage of construction, the type of improvement should be the same as that of the preceding stage -- relocation, reconstruction, minor widening, etc. aI L -3- Code Improvement Type Definitions (Continued) 8 .BRIDGE REPLACEMENT - This is the replacement of a bridge due to structural inadequacy or functional obsolescence on an existing facility. Includes widening to standard and incidental roadway approach work. 9 BRIDGE REHABILITATION - Work involving the substructure and super- structure of a bridge that has been determined structurally inad- equate. This would include the necessary substructure and super- structure construction to conform to current geometric and struc- tural standards. Work involving only the bridge deck slab or plate would not be included here. (See Code 6.) 10. SAFETY and TRAFFIC ENGINEERING IMPROVEMENTS - Construction which improves safety and/or capacity which cannot logically be classif- ied under codes 2 through 8. The higher type improvements predominate and should be used whenever possible. For instance, flattening an unsafe horizontal curve using Hazard Elimination Program funds involves reconstruction or replacement of the existing pavement on approximately the same alignment (although flatter) and should be classified as reconstruction, code 3. 11 OTHER HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENTS - This category includes improvements that do not provide any increase in the level of service, the condition of the facility or safety. Typical improvements that would fall in this category would be noise barriers, beautification, and other environmentally related features not built as part of the above identified improvement types. Cost Element Definitions Costs are to be reported for the following categories: a. Preliminary and Construction Engineering - Included are the costs for field engineering and inspection, consultant fees, aerial surveys, material testing, boring, etc. Also includes preparation of PS & E and other reports, traffic and related studies on specific projects and other engineering costs assignable to construction. b. Right -of -Way and Utility Adjustments - Costs for acquisition of nec- essary rights-of-way and, where applicable, those for access control. Include costs for all lands acquired, including any developments thereon, easements including scenic, access rights and consequential damages, appraisals, legal fees, special engineering surveys, preparation of right-of-way plats, relocation payments, etc. Also includes costs for all types of utility adjustments (private and public) within (or to clear) the right-of-way. Betterments are not included. f ' -4 - Cost Element Definitions (Continued) C. Grading and Drainage - Includes all earthwork preparatory to surface channels, flumes, dikes, underdrains, outfalls, and minor drainage structures, culvert (as usually defined) and special fill treatment. Also include the same items for interchange and frontage roads. Include cost of storm sewer adjustment and all new major storm sewer lines and appurtenances such as pumping stations and equipment. Include all costs for demolishing buildings, moving fences, clearing and grubbing, etc. d. Base and Surface - Includes costs of all base course and surfacing, including shoulders, for the through roadway, interchanges, and frontage roads. Include all curbs and sidewalks. e. Other - Include all roadway items not included in b, c, and d above. Includes traffic control devices, roadside improvements (such as sodding, planting, roadside rests, etc.), lighting, guardfence, median barriers, and railroad crossing protection (excluding separations). f. Structure - Includes the costs for all new structures and all structural improvements. This includes railroad crossing grade separation structures. g. Total - Includes all costs for all improvements.
