Disclaimers & Assumptions
1 This opinion of probable cost is approximate. Actual construction bids may vary significantly from this opinion due to timing of bids, constructual schedule restraints, labor rate increases, material increases, or other factors beyond the control of the engineer.
2 Unit prices are based on bids received from similar projects and bid prices from within the past two years from statewide Iowa DOT lettings.
3 Easements are estimations only. Compensation will be adjusted as needed during negotiations.
4 No street lighting or private utility relocation costs included.
5 Existing Culvert is 12' Wide, 8' Tall, 75' long
6 Proposed End Section and Headawall will be 41' long on each side
7 Total length is 157'
8 Rough length of wingwall is 30.5' plus a minimum 4' end section. For space reasons, it is assumed that the wingwall may tie into the poured ramp retaining wall at an approx. height of 5'. This location is west of the underpass and south of the first ramp.
