A Resolution Approving an Assignment and Consent Agreement with AECOM Technical Services, Inc. for the Cap the Ike Study (Bridge Decking) and Authorizing its Execution
End
Overview
Overview
The Village previously received Federal funds for capping I-290 (Cap the Ike). The Village entered into an agreement with URS Corporation in 2009 for a preliminary engineering study to Cap the Ike. Work on the study was suspended when IDOT began its preliminary engineering design of the I-290 Reconstruction project in order to ensure that any caps over I-290 would be feasible and compatible with IDOT's design of proposed I-290 corridor. The Federal Highway Authority is requiring that work resume on the Cap the Ike study so as to not lose the funding. AECOM Technical Services has acquired URS Corporation during this time period and the agreement needs to be reassigned to the current entity in order to keep moving forward.
