It involves regular condition surveys, predictive modeling, prioritization of repairs, and long-term budgeting to optimize resources and extend pavement life. The City manages about 110 centerline miles of local roads, many of which are showing signs of wear due to age, traffic volume, and environmental factors. Steady population growth has heightened vehicle usage and accelerated pavement deterioration. Additionally, flooding concerns, such as those experienced from Hurricanes Ian and Milton, exacerbate pavement damage through erosion and water infiltration, leading to potholes and structural failures. Without a dedicated PMP, the City has relied upon reactive resurfacing, as illustrated in the February 2025 pavement overlay project. Continuing this approach risks higher long-term costs, as preventive maintenance (e.g., seal coating) is far cheaper than full reconstruction—potentially saving 75-80% in expenses over time by addressing issues early. Establishing a PMP would enable the City to transition from piecemeal repairs to proactive, cost-effective management. By using tools like condition indexing and lifecycle analysis, the City could prioritize high-impact projects, reducing the frequency of emergency expenditures. As an example, Seminole County's PMP model emphasizes maintaining pavements above critical thresholds to avoid accelerated deterioration; a strategy that could help address future funding challenges. The proposal from Kimley-Horn and Associates offers professional consulting services for developing a Pavement Management Program (PMP). The provided PMP services will involve the use of automated data collection equipment to establish an inventory and pavement condition assessment of up to 110 centerline miles of city-maintained street pavements. Data collected during the assessment will be used to populate the City's Pavement Management System using Kimley-Horn's DRIVE software for detailed analysis, budgeting, and planning. Staff recommends City Commission approval of this agenda item. FUNDING SOURCE This project will be funded from the Transportation Fund (120) as a line code transfer 24 from unspent resurfacing to consulting. RECOMMENDATION Staff requests City Commission approval of a task order for Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. to provide professional engineering services related to the development of a Citywide Roadway Pavement Management Program in the amount of $152,016. 25 Page 1 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 July 15, 2025 Clete Saunier, P.E. Director of Public Works and Utilities City of Winter Springs 400 Old Sanford Oviedo Road Winter Springs, FL 32708 Re: Proposal for Pavement Management Services City of Winter Springs, Florida Dear Mr. Saunier: Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. (“Kimley-Horn” or “Consultant”), in connection with the City of Winter Springs [RFP #01-21 Civil Engineering Continuing Service Contract], is pleased to submit this letter agreement (the “Agreement”) to the City of Winter Springs (“Client”) for providing professional consulting services for the above referenced projects. SCOPE OF SERVICES Based on the information provided, Consultant understands that the Client wishes to execute a pavement management program (PMP) across the City’s roadway network in Winter Springs. The project will involve use of automated data collection equipment that will result in an inventory and condition assessment of existing City-maintained street pavements. Based on initial discussions with the Client, the Consultant anticipates collection on up to 110 centerline miles of roadway network. Data collected during the assessment will be used to populate a pavement management system (PMS) to help prioritize projects according to various funding scenarios. Our Scope of Services, Fee, and Schedule are as follows: Task 1 – Project Administration This task will consist of general project management, administrative, and accounting activities for the project. It will further consist of progress meetings, monthly work planning efforts, and will comprise the initial schedule development and monthly maintenance of the scope of services and project milestones. Consultant will facilitate a kick-off meeting with Winter Springs upon Notice to Proceed. Consultant will coordinate and facilitate up to four (4) additional project meetings during project execution, included in later tasks. Meetings will be conducted in-person or virtually at the discretion of the City. Consultant will prepare and distribute meeting notes for each meeting as needed. Deliverables and Meetings: • Kick-Off meeting between Consultant and City (Meeting #1) Task 2 – Network Definition This task involves the pre-field activities related to defining the roadway system inventory and specific data collection requirements. 26 Page 2 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 Task 2.1 – Data Gathering The City will provide all existing GIS mapping files, CAD files, maintenance data, recent record drawings, pavement compliant information, and any other updated information related to the City’s roadway pavements for development of the pavement network database. Task 2.2 – GIS Integration Consultant will review the existing City GIS files for integrity and completeness. GIS files will be updated to include additional fields required for pavement management analysis and formatting. Task 2.3 – Network Definition Development The Consultant will divide the existing roadway network into branches and sections as defined by the ASTM D6433-24. Each street will make up a Branch. Each branch will be further segmented into Sections. Sections will be determined by street intersection (block-to-block), unless a change in construction (age or material) or observed condition difference dictates otherwise. A section is the planning-level unit at which condition data will be analyzed and maintenance and rehabilitation recommendations will be made. In coordination with the City, Consultant will compile relevant roadway inventory data related to roadway surface type, segmentation limits (to/from streets), lane widths, work history, and other maintenance and rehabilitation efforts. Additionally, based on ongoing coordination with the City, Consultant will integrate existing City data related to paving/resurfacing history pavement core and boring data containing information such as pavement type and thickness, and base type and thickness. This information will be utilized in conjunction with pavement condition information and, if scoped, pavement strength data to develop highly reliable deterioration models for the network pavements and to develop robust, objective decision-making processes that form the basis of a pavement Capital Improvement Plan in later tasks. Consultant will use ESRI GIS software to compile, store, and visualize the roadway inventory data. GIS inventory updates will be limited to the update of existing asset GIS shapefiles provided by the City. If the City cannot provide GIS data, existing Seminole County GIS data will be utilized. Development of new GIS layers/feature class data will be considered additional services not included in this scope. Task 2.4 – Database Development The Consultant will develop a PAVERTM database using the defined system inventory. The database will be calibrated to identify branch identification, section data, and inspection data. The Section data will consist of the following: pavement geometry, to, from, surface type, and maintenance history, pavement and base information, and estimated construction history. Construction history will be updated based on a limited aerial review and documents received from the City. Task 3 – Data Collection and Integration Consultant, through our subconsultant International Cybernetics Company (ICC), will complete a comprehensive pavement data collection effort using high-speed automated equipment. Task 3 involves the collection, quality management, and integration of condition data and inventories into the PMS. Based on preliminary estimates, Consultant anticipates data collection on no more than 100 centerline miles of City-maintained roadway. 27 Page 3 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 Task 3.1 – Pavement Automated Data Collection Pavement data collection will be coordinated with the City in advance of data collection according to the roadway network defined in Task 2. Data collection will be completed by ICC using its IrisPRO Pave data collection vehicles that are equipped with a laser crack measurement system (LCMS-2), inertial profiler, and Ladybug 5+ right-of -way imaging system. Data will be collected in accordance with ASTM D6433 standards and established Data Dictionary and approved by the City. Collection will occur in one direction of travel for all 2-lane roadways. The City-approved network definition shapefile developed in Task 2 will indicate collection for in-scope roadways. Extracted assets will consist of pavement inventory and ASTM distress data, international roughness index (IRI) data, rutting data, and right-of-way imaging. Task 3.2 – Quality Management To confirm pavement condition ratings, Consultant will verify pavement conditions using a two-step process. First, Consultant will process and review pavement distress types, severities, and extents to confirm that automated data collection processes are accurately characterizing pavement conditions. In the second step, Consultant will perform a visual verification of pavement conditions using trained pavement inspectors on approximately 5% of the network. Task 4 – Pavement Condition Analysis Task 4.1 – Pavement Condition Analysis Upon performing a quality management review of distress data, Consultant will make necessary adjustments and confirm final pavement distress data. The PCI will be calculated using PAVERTM pavement management software. The distress mechanisms (load, climate, and other) will be inventoried and calculated for each segment. Each segment inventory (length, width, surface type, estimated construction history, and observed maintenance) will be updated within the network based on the observed conditions during the inspection. Consultant will develop a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) Exhibit depicting the condition results at the section level. The exhibit will be color coded to represent the ASTM D6433-24 rating system and annotated to detail the condition information. The exhibit will be developed in GIS software and later uploaded to the DRIVE pavement management system for visualization and analysis. Task 4.2 – Performance Modeling Based on the inventory data compiled (Task 2) and the data collection (Task 3) and the deterioration analysis, Consultant will develop performance models of the pavement deterioration (also known as prediction curves) to estimate the future PCI values for all pavement segments. Consultant will integrate the data collected in Task 2 to further refine PCI “Families” for more accurate, customized prediction modeling. Consultant will assign each street segment to the appropriate family of pavements to more accurately plan timing and type of future maintenance and rehabilitation efforts. Consultant will estimate future PCI trends for a 5-year period. Consultant will prepare a 5-Year milestone from current year PCI (2025). Deliverables and Meetings: • Current and 5-Year Future PCI values • Meeting to review results of the PCI calculations and deterioration analysis (Meeting #2) 28 Page 4 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 Task 5 – Unit Cost Estimates Consultant will request from the City any available pavement construction cost bid submittals for the purpose of evaluating material and labor costs. Consultant will utilize this data for the preparation of planning-level unit costs opinions of probable costs for the purpose of M&R Planning. Consultant has no control over the cost of labor, materials, equipment, or over the Contractor's methods of determining prices or over competitive bidding or market conditions. Consultant will develop unit costs for the repair methods identified as appropriate maintenance or rehabilitation alternatives for City pavements. Unit costs will consider results of recent bid tabulations, FDOT Average Unit Price data, and recent market trends. A meeting will be held between the City and the Consultant to review unit costs and making any revisions necessary. Deliverables and Meetings: • Localized Maintenance, Global Rehabilitation, and Major Rehabilitation Unit Costs • Meeting to review unit costs (Meeting #3) Task 6 – DRIVE Software and Treatment Analysis Task 6.1 – Maintenance Policy Development Consultant shall conduct an in-depth review of current maintenance practices performed by the City. The analysis shall include assigning past maintenance activities to each road segment as applicable and comparing deterioration rates of pavements with differing treatments. This analysis will support the development of custom maintenance policies for the City network. Consultant shall develop a localized maintenance policy based on the Section-level extrapolation of distress manifestations observed as part of the Functional Data Collection. Maintenance estimates shall be made for the current year. Future maintenance needs will not be analyzed due to the unpredictability of specific distress manifestations in future years. Consultant shall develop a critical PCI level that triggers the need for rehabilitation and reconstruction. The rehabilitation and reconstruction for pavements shall utilize conceptual pavement sections for planning level estimates. The conceptual pavement sections will have estimated costs that can assist in the determination of the overall needs. Task 6.2 – DRIVE Software Customization Consultant will import tabular and GIS shapefile data related to inventory and condition into its DRIVE software tool. Consultant will customize the software with methods for repair, maintenance, minor rehabilitation, and major rehabilitation into the PAVER database software for analysis. Prediction Models will be assigned to pavement segments based on the families developed in Task 4. M&R costs and policies will be assigned to pavement segments based on the policies developed in this task. Based on the specific policies and treatment types developed for the Client, Consultant will program treatment consequence parameters such as resulting surface type, and estimated life extension. Task 6.3 – Budget Analysis Consultant shall utilize DRIVE to perform Budget Scenario Analysis to evaluate the City’s forecasted network-level PCI values for a 5-year period based on budgetary inputs. The results of this analysis will be a targeted budget to serve as the basis for future funding levels and capital improvement plan 29 Page 5 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 development. The following annual funding scenarios may be evaluated: 1. Unlimited Funding 2. Current Funding (information provided by Client) 3. Maintain Current Network-Level PCI 4. Up to three (3) Funding Alternatives 5. No Spending Task 6.4 – Priority Analysis Consultant will utilize the results of the scenarios to develop a prioritized plan of street maintenance and rehabilitation projects. The plan will identify, prioritize, and assign treatment types to each pavement section as determined by the analyzed data, engineering judgement, and City staff involvement/feedback. DRIVE integrates factors such as pavement condition, street type, traffic, rank, and consequence of deferral to formulate a Cost-Benefit Value (CBV) for each street in the network. This CBV value will be used by DRIVE to identify priority street treatments, particularly when budgetary constraints are introduced. Task 6.5 – Meeting and Training Consultant will provide City staff with the training required to operate the DRIVE software. Following the initial configuration and data integration into DRIVE, Consultant will meet with the City to demonstrate software features and functions with the goal of providing City staff with the training required to operate the system independently. The software will be web-based and allow for users to access the site remotely. The initial DRIVE software licensing period will remain in effect for two (2) years and can be renewed further by the City annually under a separate contract. Client will receive access to DRIVE software complete with results of analysis performed in this task. Client will have ability to access, visualize, and export all data within the software. Client will be able to perform new analysis, or revise existing analysis, related to maintenance and rehabilitation prioritization and treatment selection. Client will be able to select streets for project selection, and store projects within the software for purposes of developing a Capital Improvement Plan. Deliverables: • Access to DRIVE Software for two (2) 1-year licensing periods (Beginning at final software delivery) • M&R Policies • 5-Year Budget Scenario Results Summary List • List of M&R priorities based on policies and prioritization criteria • One (1) half-day meeting/training session on DRIVE software functionality and review of prioritization results (Meeting #4) 30 Page 6 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 DRIVE Interface – Summary Dashboard DRIVE Interface – Budget Scenario Module 31 Page 7 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 DRIVE Interface – Project Planner Module 32 Page 8 kimley-horn.com 200 S Orange Ave, Suite 600, Orlando, FL 32801 407-898-1511 Task 7 – Reporting Consultant will develop a technical report that discusses the data collection methodology, data collection results, analysis scenarios, and maintenance and repair priorities. The Report will summarize pavement network condition and provide recommendations on strategies for structuring a pavement management program over the next 5 years. Consultant will provide draft and final versions. This Task includes addressing one round of non-conflicting comments from the Client. The deliverable for this Task will be a Final Report that addresses these comments. Consultant will deliver final GIS shapefiles and map packages to the City containing relevant roadway inventory and condition data. Files will be provided in .SHP and .MPK file formats and will be suitable for integration into a City GIS platform. Deliverables: • Draft Pavement Management Program Report • Final Pavement Management Program Report • Meeting to review draft report and make up to 1 round of revisions (Meeting #6) Task 8 – CIP Development Support Consultant will assist the City in development of a 5- to 10-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Consultant will prepare for and attend CIP workshop meetings with City staff to work through, develop, and refine a CIP to be implemented by the City in future years. Consultant will consider priorities identified by the City as well as the results of the project prioritization from Task 6. A proximity analysis will be performed to identify maintenance and rehabilitation projects consisting of multiple adjacent high-priority segments of common work types, and choose the most appropriate timing and work type for each. The results of the budget analysis will be used as a baseline for the funding levels targeted in the CIP. Additional factors that should be considered include traffic impacts, adjacent utility priorities, upcoming areas of development, and currently programmed projects, to name a few. Based on pavement rehabilitation needs identified, a preliminary CIP will be developed for pavement M&R. The evaluation and design sequences will have identified areas of pavement requiring rehabilitation and preferred options such as surface treatments, mill and overlay, reclamation, or reconstruction. This task will include preparation of opinion of probable construction costs (OPCC) for each identified project alternative. The OPCC will be based on FDOT average unit costs and recent cost trends.
