The entry feature from the Collins Avenue to the commercial property will be defined in both plan and profile. The traffic signal at Collins Avenue and 183rd Street is on an FDOT roadway. However, it is operated and maintained by Miami -Dade County. The CES Team is aware that the plans for modifying the existing traffic signal must be reviewed and approved by Miami - Dade County, therefore the CES Team will provide a preliminary (60 %) design for initial County (MDPWD) review. The design will utilize approved FDOT signal mast arms instead of the standard County mast arms. It is anticipated that a significant dialog between the City and the CES Team will be maintained during this period to insure that the project's goals are adequately met. Initial construction cost estimates will be prepared in this task, which will be continually updated as the design development and final design tasks proceed.
