PROJECT:DETERMINE FEASIBILITY AND ANTICPATED COST OF A NEW
PEDESTRIAN TUNNEL UNDER U.S HIGHWAY 6 PIICKMAN
ROAD)JUST WEST OF WARRIOR LANE.
DATE:June 12,2014
GENERAL OB JECTIVE
The City Gf Waukee desires a pedestrian tunnel under U.S.Highway 6 approximately 500 feet
west of the Warrior Lane intersection.The site is a challenging location,since there are multiple
drainageways,culverts and storm sewer structures in proximity,all of which have Qowlines that
will be higher than the floor elevation of a pedestrian tunnel.However,there appears to be
opportunity to construct the tunnel between the drainage systems with some modifications.
Since the tunnel will be low and exposed to rainfall at each end,some level of pump system will
be required.Hydraulic calculations will be needed to determine the geometiic capacity needs of
the conveyance systems adjacent to the tunnel.The following services are anticipated in order to
determine the feasibility and cost of the pedestrian underpass for funding purposes.
SCOPE OF SERVICES:
l.Attend a study kickoff meeting with CITY staff to discuss background information,citizen concerns,
overall trail plans,pending development,etc.
2.Perform topographic survey of existing features,ground elevations,and stream channel cross sections
and flow lines.Utilities will be located to Quality Level "C",which includes shots on field locates,
but not precise location through potholing or other methods.Research Iowa DOT permit records for
utility installations.
3.Prepare a preliminary design layout for a pedestrian tunnel and approach trails,including
modifications to existing drainage structures and infrastructure.
4.Prepare a preliminary staging and traffic control plan suitable for initiating discussions with Iowa
DOT District 4.

7.Identify applicable funding sources and prepare a strategic funding application plan.
8.Prepare a report of the findings and recommendations of the study.
