The trail would then follow the existing sidewalk on the east side of Ferry Street South and easterly toward the Peninsula Point Park. 4, The fourth part of segment 5 is approximately 600 lineal feet long adjacent to the entrance to Peninsula Point Park. This segment begins east of Ferry Street where the sidewalk ends in front of the Shiloh House and continues down to the proposed location for a pedestrian bridge over the Rum River. The entrance road to the park is within a 30 foot roadway easement and has a paved surface of 24 feet. Construction of this trail segment will include minimal clearing and grubbing, along with construction of 600 feet of 6 foot wide path to match the existing sidewalk. 5. The fifth part of segment 5 includes the construction of a pedestrian bridge over the Rum River. This bridge is proposed for a connection to the existing Rum River Trail from Peninsula Point Park. Construction of this bridge will most likely be a pre-assembled steel bridge structure that could be set in place by a crane. The bridge would be set on abutments that will be constructed in place on the riverbanks. The cost of this Bridge and its construction are not included in the cost estimate. 6. Cost Estimate and Summary of Work Items Utility Relocation Landscaping Allowance Construction 5,800 Linear Feet at $221LF Design/Engineering/Contingency (15%) Total Construction = $29.23/LF = $17,000 = $25,000 = $127,600 = $25,440 - $195,040 7. Segment Alternates This segment has a number of alternate routes, which are evaluated as follows: a. This alternate trail is a secondary route around the south and east sides of K-Mart. This alternate is approximately 1 ~ 100 lineal feet long adjacent to Cutters Lane, starting at the intersection with Cutters Grove Avenue and ending at the intersection of Highway 10. This segment would include use of the existing 5 foot sidewalk on the north and south portion of Cutters Lane. The north and south portions are adjacent to back yards and garages that have a zero foot setback from the right of way line, and are entirely fenced. This sidewalk is 5 feet wide, ma.king it acceptable for pedestrian use. The east and West portion of this segment has a sidewalk that is approximately 4 feet wide and would be replaced with a 5 foot concrete sidewalk. , Cutters Lane has a right of way of 60 feet in this area and a paved Page 1 7 35
