COST ESTIMATES FOR NETWORK ALTERNATIVES

Cost Estimation
Table 11 provides a summary of infrastructure improvement costs which must be utilized in your cost estimates. The figures provided are Present Value estimates of capital, operating, and maintenance costs.

        Table 11. Future Infrastructure Improvement Cost Estimates
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current Road Type      Freeway   Primary     Major     Minor   Collect     Local
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roads ($ per lane-mile for 2-way links):
-----
New facility:          500,000   300,000   225,000   150,000   100,000    50,000
Additional lane:       300,000   200,000   100,000   100,000    50,000    25,000
Upgrade Facility Type: 600,000   200,000   200,000   100,000    50,000      na 

Intersections ($, one per link):
-------------
New Intersection:      600,000   100,000   100,000    75,000    75,000    25,000
Upgrade Intersection:  500,000   200,000   100,000   100,000    50,000      na
Grade Separate at Fwy:      na   300,000   300,000   150,000   150,000      na

                   *** Use cost for the more expensive facility type ***

Maintenance ($ per lane-mile, after 10 years)
===========
Existing Facility:     100,000    80,000    70,000    50,000    20,000    10,000

Rehabilitation ($ per lane-mile, after 20 years)
==============
Existing Facility:     250,000   150,000   110,000    75,000    50,000    25,000

If facility is not upgraded, apply maintenance fees after 10 years and 
rehabilitation fees after 20 years. No penalties apply to M&R.

Bridges
=======
Link incorporating a bridge increases total link, maintenance, and rehabilitation
costs by a factor of two (assume bridge runs the full length of the link)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sensitive Areas        Construction in or adjacent to Miasma Wetlands (between 
---------------        (between 3rd and 4th Streets, from south of Coast Hwy to 
                       Mountain Blvd) increases all construction costs by 20%. 

                       Construction along the beach increases costs by 10%.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bus Transit:           $2,000 per person-mile for an O-D pair; decrease O/D 
-----------            demand by 1-20% for each O-D pair with bus service added. 
                       Justify the percent reduction, convert OD vehicle-trips 
                       to person-trips on transit, convert to person-miles, and 
                       use new OD matrix in assignment.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Truck Prohibition:     State Route 1 thru Miasma Beach is operated & maintained 
-----------------      by the State DOT. The State can divert truck thru-traffic. 
                       Cost estimates depend on consultant proposal.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Demand Management      Ridesharing, parking policies, and other strategies must 
-----------------      provide cost and traffic reduction justification.
