BOLTON & MENK Real People, Real Solutions. • Supporting roadway network — 2 conceptual layouts • Develop up to 2 Highway 10 area conceptual layouts west of Armstrong Blvd including supporting roadway needs For evaluating the concepts, we will need to design profiles and alignments for each concept. To do this, we will utilize LiDAR data that is already collected for our concept layouts. With the LiDAR data having a tolerance of +/- 6 inches horizontally and +/- 1 foot vertically, we feel strongly that this data will allow us to evaluate concepts thorough enough to create a firm recommendation and allow us to get a solid indication of the impacts for each concept. 4.2 Concept Renderings Our team will prepare simple and aesthetic visual renderings of select concepts being evaluated to aid in communicating the concepts to agencies and the public. We anticipate choosing up to 4 locations for renderings and develop sketches for each of the build options at each location. We assume up to 12 simple visual renderings. 4.3 Concept Evaluation The evaluation of alternatives will utilize a matrix format to pull together information documented through the study based on selected criteria developed in the Goals and Objectives. The evaluation matrix will also be prepared with the intent that it can be utilized in future NEPA documentation. The alternatives will be narrowed to one build alternative with the aid of this evaluation matrix. 4.4 Cost Estimates Bolton & Menk will develop preliminary cost estimates with cost splits based on cost participation policies for each concept identified with this study. Task 5: Communications The Bolton & Menk team will develop a strategic communications plan that lays out the timeline and tactical methods to cultivate project understanding and consensus that supports the vision for the Ramsey Highway 10 corridor. We will work with the project partners to craft a dynamic campaign that effectively informs, motivates, and moves to action many different groups. This type of effort requires an investment in tactical -level tools and methods. We suggest the following elements for successful communication for this project: • Project Branding (logo and consistent communications template) • Video Creation (both full and "bite -size" for media use) • Infographics/Visual Renderings • Print Communications (Newsletters/Press Releases) • Project Website (information hub) / Public Input Tool • Social Media 10
