Andrew F. Baumgartner Memorial Boulevard / Ferry Terminal Access Road Improvements Borough of Carteret, Middlesex County, NJ Proposal No. 2021 -033 Dear John: We are pleased to present our estimate of fees for professional engineering services for the above - referenced project. Our office prepared a scope of work, cost estimate, and grant application to the NJDOT Local Aid Office to effectuate the necessary widening and upgrades to Sgt. Andrew F. Baumgartner Memorial Boulevard (a /k/a Waterfront Park/Ferry Terminal Access Road). These upgrades will assist in upgrading the road surface, infrastructure, and streetscaping to better serve the increased trip generation associated with the proposal Ferry Terminal and Rivenaalk, as well as the increased use of the Waterfront associated with the Municipal Marina and existing boat ramp, fishing pier and park. The preliminary construction estimate for the reconstruction and resurfacing of the roadways as submitted to the NJDOT was approximately $762,350. NJDOT awarded a grant in the amount of $678,973 toward these improvement efforts. These improvements will tie into the new intersection currently being designed by our office in conjunction with Middlesex County at the intersection of Industrial Highway and the future extension of Carteret Avenue. The existing access road was designed by CME Associates and was completed in 2005 along with the construction of Waterfront Par, boat ramp, and the reconstruction Veteran's Fishing Pier. The existing access road is approximately 1,200 feet in length, 28 feet wide, and includes 42 parallel parking spaces and a 7 -foot wide sidewalk. Existing lighting is provided by PSE &G cobrahead streetlights. The road exists within a 50 -foot wide easement through Block 304, Lots 1, 2.01, and 2.02, as well as a ±36 -foot wide easement at the Conrail grade crossing.
