CONSULTING ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR <br />Golden Shores Utility Undergrounding and Roadway Improvements <br />F–2IWOP41002.18w_Sunny Isles Beach Golden Shores Undergrounding.indd <br />Project #2 <br />Name, Address, Contact, Phone, and Email Address: Village of Key Biscayne, 85 West McIntyre Street, Suite 220, <br />Key Biscayne, FL 33149, Jake Ozyman, (305) 365‑7568, jozyman@keybiscayne.fl.gov <br />Project Title: Master Planning for Village-Wide Undergrounding of Utilities Program, Village of <br />Key Biscayne <br />Description of Work Performed: In recent years, the Village has been investigating the feasibility of relocating <br />existing overhead utilities (electric, telephone, and cable) to an underground location to enhance the safety, reliability <br />and aesthetics of these <br />facilities within the Village. <br />In August 2017, Kimley‑ <br />Horn was selected to be <br />the engineer for the Village’s <br />undergrounding program. The <br />design and construction of <br />the undergrounding program <br />is anticipated to take multiple <br />years to complete. In order to <br />balance potentially competing <br />priorities such as cost, project <br />duration, traffic impacts, etc., <br />for this large‑scale project, a <br />Master Plan was developed in <br />order to evaluate these priorities <br />ahead of any detailed design <br />of any single undergrounding <br />phase. The Master Plan will <br />serve as a guide for the overall <br />program and outlines the <br />schedule, sequencing, phasing, <br />management of traffic impacts, <br />project delivery methods, data <br />collection, public outreach, <br />design criteria, and projected <br />costs. To complete this Master <br />Plan Kimley‑Horn worked <br />with the Village’s appointed <br />Undergrounding Utility Task <br />force, Village staff, and key <br />stakeholders in this conversion <br />process included FP&L, <br />Comcast, and AT&T. The Master <br />Plan will be completed for <br />ultimate approval by the Village <br />Council. <br />Year Completed: Ongoing
