MEMORANDUM
To: BPW & Common Council
From: Theresa Caven, P.E., Stormwater Project Engineer
Subject: SW-21-03 Gebhardt Road Bridge
Date: August 18, 2021
Requested Action: Staff is recommending that BPW & Common Council award the design and
construction inspection of the Gebhardt Road Bridge replacement to the lowest
responsible bidder, RA Smith, in an amount, not to exceed, $86,281.
Fiscal Impact: Design Phase $ 42,707.00
Construction Phase $ 43,574.00
TOTAL $ 86,281.00
Source of Funds: CIP 61211301 703122 {Enterprise Ave. Bridge Funds) $ 80,000.00
CIP 61211301 703122 ST193 (Corporate Dr. North) $ 6,281.00
Rationale: Gebhardt Road Bridge is located on Gebhardt Rd., west of Pilgrim Parkway, and crosses over
the Dousman Ditch. The existing pre-stressed concrete bridge was c:;onstructed in 1966.
The 2020 bridge report identified numerous large spalls with exposed pre-stressed steel and
delamination in the channel girder stems at the beam ends. It is expected that the rate of
decay will continue and a full bridge replacement is the most cost-effective solution. The
replacement structure will be placed in the same general location/alignment; as such, it is
anticipated that the new bridge will be approximately the same length and width. The
proposed design will also provide an equivalent capacity.
Work History: Public Works Department has worked with RA Smith on numerous projects. They have
completed the project accurately, within budget and on-time.
Funding: Originally, the Gebhardt Rd. bridge was scheduled for design in 2022, and the Enterprise
Ave. bridge was scheduled for design in 2021. However, the Enterprise Ave. bridge may
qualify for federal funds; as such, the projects were switched. Switching the two projects
provides the City the opportunity to submit an application for funds for Enterprise Ave.
under the Wis DOT Local Bridge Improvement Assistance program.

EXHIBIT A
Project Understanding
We understand that the City of Brookfield intends to reconstruct the Gebhardt Road bridge (P-67-731)
over the Dousman Ditch. The existing bridge was constructed in 1966, and the deterioration indicates full
bridge replacement is the most cost-effective solution. The replacement structure will be in the same
general location and alignment, and approximately the same length and width. The City anticipates a road
closure to facilitate the bridge reconstruction in 2022.
The City of Brookfield will obtain all required permits from the Wisconsin Department of Natural
Resources (WDNR). The City will also prepare the final bid documents, advertise for bids, and evaluate
the bids, along with selecting a contractor and awarding the contract.
Project Approach
Initial Tasks
raSmith will begin the design process with data gathering and coordination with the City. We will perform
a field survey of topography, waterway, Diggers Hotline marked utilities, structures, roadway, and trees
with a six inch and larger diameter within the area between the centerlines of Pilgrim Parkway East and
Pilgrim Parkway West, and approximately 40 feet upstream and downstream of the bridge.
We will also engage our geotechnical subconsultant, ECS Midwest, LLC, to perform subsurface
investigations as soon as we are authorized. We anticipate conducting two borings, each approximately
60 feet deep, working from the roadway. The investigation includes visual classification of the samples,
basic index laboratory testing, and a report documenting the field exploration and testing, and providing
design recommendations for structure foundation, and general geotechnical-related design information.
Roadway
The RFP indicates a preference to maintain the existing 44-foot bridge width. The existing Gebhardt Road
typical section across the bridge includes a wide shoulder adjacent to the westbound lanes acting as a
bicycle/pedestrian accommodation, and a tapered eastbound approach to the Pilgrim Parkway signalized
intersection. We will review the existing traffic count data to determine the most appropriate eastbound
lane geometry at the signalized intersection and follow Facilities Development Manual (FDM) guidance
regarding turn-lane widths and tapers. We will refer to the WisDOT Bicycle Design Manual as we weigh
various options for the westbound bicycle accommodations that will best match the existing designated
bicycle lane west of Pilgrim Parkway. The preferred design will provide a balance of providing safe,
efficient operations for vehicular and bicycle traffic while not reflecting an overdesigned bridge.
Consideration may be given to widen the bridge slightly to a 45-foot width. This would allow an 8-foot
raised bicycle/pedestrian accommodation, 11-foot westbound lane, 11-foot eastbound shared through/left
turn lane, 11-foot eastbound right-turn lane, and 2-foot shy distances on each side of the travel lanes. If
current traffic volumes are shown to not warrant the eastbound shared through/left and exclusive right
turn lane, the bridge could be initially striped as a two-lane facility, as it is today. In the future, if the
Gebhardt/Pilgrim intersection is improved, the bridge infrastructure would be set up to allow for two
eastbound approach lanes (shared through-left/exclusive right, or exclusive left/shared through-right).
Hydraulics
Dousman Ditch at the Gebhardt Road crossing has a mapped regulatory floodplain. We will obtain the
regulatory floodplain hydraulic model and perform a hydraulic design analysis consistent with City of
Brookfield and WDNR floodplain zoning requirements. Based on the regulatory flood elevations, the
existing bridge is not over topped during a regional flood event, as shown in the following cross section.
The analysis will verify that the proposed replacement structure would not increase the flood elevations
for the 1 % annual chance, 100-year recurrence interval flood event. Current regulatory flood flows will be
evaluated, and the results of the hydraulic analysis will be documented in a report.
A Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) should be submitted to FEMA within six months of construction to
comply with the City's floodplain ordinance. As an additional service, raSmith would complete an as-built
record survey, prepare the LOMR application documents, and submit to WDNR and FEMA for their
approval. We will coordinate with the agencies during their review and address any review comments.

r Smith
Structural
We have reviewed the project scope, researched available information for the site and existing bridge,
and considered how to best serve the City on this project. Based on our understanding of the project, we
feel the structure replacement design must achieve the following objectives:
Meet applicable WisDOT FDM and BOS design standards for service life, load capacity, detailing, and
bridge geometry.
• Avoid increases in the floodplain elevations.
• Minimize right-of-way impacts and construction costs.
• Provide in-stream aquatic organism passage.
• Provide safe and efficient conveyance for pedestrian and bicycle traffic.
• Maintain roadway horizontal alignment and minimize vertical profile adjustments.
Considering the above objectives, the preliminary structure design of the bridge replacement will include
an alternatives analysis to determine the best design solution for the replacement structure. We will
evaluate various superstructure types and span lengths as part of this analysis. Superstructure types to
be evaluated include concrete flat slab and prestressed concrete girder. Each structure span length
configuration considered will be based on the hydraulic capacity needed to convey the required design
flow without increasing the floodplain elevations. For the substructure, we will evaluate pile foundations
including reuse of the existing piles. Reusing the existing piles in the replacement structure would offer
the City significant savings in construction with upwards of $40,000 in potential savings.
Development of the preliminary structure design alternatives will include coordination with the other
design disciplines including survey, geotechnical, hydraulic, and roadway design. The evaluation criteria
for the replacement structure will include estimated construction cost, utility and right-of-way impacts,
roadway vertical profile changes, constructibility constraints, and conveyance of pedestrian and bicycle
traffic. We will provide the City with a summary of the various design alternatives for review, which will
include structure type, size, layout, and an estimated construction cost. Final design will commence once
a preferred design alternative is selected.
As the structure design progresses, various other design challenges will be addressed. Utilities will need
to be coordinated and those in conflict relocated. This includes evaluation of overhead lines within the
vicinity of the bridge and utilities attached to the underside of the existing bridge. Removal of the existing
structure will need to minimize impacts to the waterway while maintaining the stream flow. This can be
accomplished by constructing the proposed abutments behind the existing abutment and using the
existing abutments as a temporary channel. The installation of any piling and sheeting will need to
consider vibrational impacts to adjacent buildings.
The structural design and plans will be prepared in accordance with the AASHTO LRFD Design
Specifications, the WisDOT BOS Bridge Manual, WisDOT Standard Specifications, and applicable City of
Brookfield standards. The preliminary structure design submittal will include general plan, cross-section,
and subsurface sheets. The final structure design submittal will include final structure plans, design
calculations, bid item quantities, and any special provisions necessary for work not covered by the
standard specification. Estimated construction costs for the replacement structure will also be prepared
during the preliminary and final design submittals.

wall, grading, roadway restoration, erosion control, traffic control and landscape
restoration.
The bridge on Corporate Drive North over the ponds needs to be replaced because of
numerous spots of delamination, spalls, exposed steel, stem cracks and corrosion.
It is well known that material prices are at historic highs, with worker and material
availability being at record lows. Staff recommends rejection of the bids as the funds
are lacking. Staff also recommends the rebidding of the project at a later date, after the
design and contract documents have been reviewed for potential ways to reduce the
overall project cost.

MEMORANDUM:
To: BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
From: JEFFREY M. CHASE, P.E., CITY ENGINEER
Date: SEPTEMBER 9, 2021
Topic: REQUEST TO RENAME 186TH STREET TO WAVERLY PLACE
Attached is a legislative referral from Alderman Meza to change the name of N. 186 1h Street
between Hoffman Avenue and Burleigh Road to Waverly Place. It is staff understanding that
the Common Council can change a street name by Resolution, declaring the new name and
limits, and directing staff to take such administrative actions as are necessary to implement
same.
In addition to fabricating and installing new street name signs, there are a number of
administrative tasks that would be necessitated by the name change. Most of the tasks are
associated with the change of address that would result for each parcel of record on the street.
Many of the City's information systems and data records are tied to parcel addresses and
therefore would have to be updated or cross-referenced. I have attached a memo from my staff
that identifies these tasks and the estimated staff time to do so. While we have not quantified
these tasks to any great detail, it would appear to be in excess of 400 hours of time with an
associated cost in the lO's of thousands of dollars.
There are a number of outside agencies that would have to update their systems as well,
including Waukesha County Dispatch, Waukesha County Land Information System, Elmbrook
School District, the US Postal Service, WE Energies Electric and Gas, Spectrum, AT&T and
possibly others.
The Board may want to consider that there is a potential risk that one of these record updates
is overlooked or not completed in a timely fashion. The consequences for such an omission
range from very bad in the case of the County 911 Dispatch to minimal. For this reason, staff
generally does not honor individual requests for an address change. Accordingly staff
recommends against changing the street name of N. 135th Street between Hoffman Avenue and
Burleigh Road to Waverly Place.

Subject: Proposal to change street name
Good morning,
I'm writing to request a referral to the public Works committee. My constituents wish to change the street name
of 'N 186th" between Hoffman Ave. and Burleigh rd. Currently there are 13 home owners that reside between
3025 N 186th to 3095 N 186th street. Six of these thirteen addresses reside in a condominium community
which has current values that well exceed $500,000 per home.
All thirteen homeowners have been surveyed about changing the street name. 12 out 13 residents have agreed
that they prefer the name "Waverly Place" to "N 186th st" for their street address. In addition the developers
who are adding residents to this street strongly support a new name to reflect the added value to this area.
These future developments have already been approved. I am making this request now to save staff time by
accomplishing this name change prior to future home construction.
The current residents and developers feel that the value of their homes would increase because they no longer
have a block and grid street name. I agree this will add value to the village area as a whole.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter.
Best regards,
Je1maMeza

Topic: IN THE MATIER OF THE CHANGE OF ROAD NAME REQUEST FOR N 186'" STREET
BETWEEN HOFFMAN AVE AND W. BURLEIGH ROAD
RE: in the matter of the Change of Road Name request
Subsequent to the road name change of N 186'h street from Hoffman Ave to W. Burleigh Rd request
submitted to the Legislative and Licensing Committee and the request for a report on the system and
records modification that would result from such executed modification, the following report details the
system modification including all departments within the City along with an approximation of the
number of FTE hours required to substantiate the modification. Analysis of the modification to the road
name was completed by interviewing key staff in each department and requesting which components of
records, plans and studies, data, service and software that would be impacted by a change of name to
roadways. Some departments were left out (Accounting and Treasury) as the modifications to the data
will account for less than an hour for less than 20 parcels. Following the city departments' information
is a summary of possible residence requirements that will occur with the update.
