112527 | Citywide ADA Ramps 3 (Philadelphia City)

This "Transition List" project will include the design and construction of ADA ramps that were originally included in the scope of other federal aid projects – primarily Center City Signals NE Quad (MPMS# 70014), completed in 2017, and the cancelled Citywide Bumpouts project (MPMS# 64805) – as well as various streetscape projects and ramps located on select Federal Aid routes that were repaved with local funding. These ramps typically would be included as design build items in the original project contracts, however, in some instances, the urban context of the ADA ramp locations warrants further coordination or study. To allow the original construction projects to proceed in a timely fashion, these ramps were pulled from the original construction contracts and will now be addressed as part of this transition list package. This will allow the City to design and construct the ramps to meet current ADA requirements while properly providing for stairs, cellar doors, unique paving materials, adjacent historic properties and other considerations as necessary.
