The project is one of several which are being designed simultaneously <br />near the location of the proposed Figgie Corporation Headquarters to accommodate the anticipated <br />increase in traffic. <br />Within the project area, Richmond Road is a two-lane uncurbed highway. It is on a tangent <br />alignment, with a gently rolling profile, and serves to access Sunny Acres Hospital, Cuyahoga <br />County Community College Eastern Campus, Little Sisters of the Poor Home for the Aged, <br />several private residences, and a future site of the Figgie development project. <br />The road will be widened to four lanes with curbs and sidewalks, and a 30 ft. median for the <br />portion adjacent to the Figgie property. The construction plans will address the following items <br />of work: <br />- new reinforced concrete pavement, with pavement joint plans and intersection details <br />- new storm sewer system to replace the existing system of ditches and small culverts. <br />Three major culverts will be upgraded. <br />- new signing and pavement marking, and provisions for future traffic lights at two <br />intersections <br />- maintenance of traffic plans, with provisions for through traffic to be detoured while <br />maintaining at least one lane open at all times to provide access for local residents and <br />institutions <br />- relocation of the sanitary sewer <br />- coordination with utility owners to address the required relocations of underground <br />telephone ]ines, gas lines, water lines, and utility poles right of way plans construction cost <br />estimates. <br />17 <br />I
