The scope of work will include all labor, services, materials and products to design, fabricate, and install the necessary curbside parking signage in the area, and remove and dispose of all old signage and accompanying materials. The contractor selected will be expected to supply the signage and installation of signs based on the prices contained in this bid. The scope of work also includes the recording of each sign and post installation into GIS as a point with attribute data. The Village of Oak Park will provide the selected contractor with the necessary equipment for the GIS data collection. The Village of Oak Park Parking & Mobility Services Division will supply the required text and regulations for the different types of signs. These signs may include parking regulation signage (i.e. 3-hour time limit, M-F), street cleaning regulation signage, and parking permit signage. A comprehensive list of sign quantities and an installation guide is contained in Appendix A. Appendix B details the different sign types and quantities. Much of the work will be replacement of existing signs on existing support posts, but there will be a need to install new sign support posts in certain instances as well. The sign post locations shall be staked by Village personnel prior to the installation of the posts. The Contractor shall be responsible for the proper elevation, offset, and orientation of all signs as indicated in the plans or as directed by the Village’s Parking & Mobility Services Manager or their designee. Base sections shall be 2 x 2 inches and driven by hand or mechanical means to a minimum depth of 36 inches measured from the ground line. The 1 ¾ x 1 ¾ inch top section shall be telescoped into the base section a minimum of 8 inches and a maximum of 12 inches and the two sections fastened together. The contractor is solely responsible for coordination of JULIE locates, as required. The Contractor shall be responsible for coordinating the disposal and/or relocation of all old signage, posts, or other related materials that are to be removed. The Village’s Parking & Mobility Services Manager or their designee shall direct the contractor as to where signs should be relocated, stored, or disposed. All work, including the replacement of existing signs and support posts, as well as the installation of new signs and support posts, shall be recorded in the Village of Oak Park GIS system. The work will be recorded as points on a map, submitted through an Oak Park ArcGIS online account via a mobile device. Points for each support post and sign will be recorded at the GPS location of each installation. While submitting the points, the contractor shall populate key attribute fields, including but not limited to, sign text, date of installation, support post material, post type, manufacturer, and condition.
