Perimeter Fence Upgrade Phase II

Phase II of the Perimeter Fence Upgrade project aims to enhance airfield security and safety by mitigating hazards posed by large terrestrial wildlife and preventing unauthorized access to the airfield. This phase includes the replacement of approximately 21,000 linear feet of perimeter fencing along Runway 18R/36L, as well as upgrades to select airfield gates. The project will increase the fence height from 6 feet to 10 feet and implement targeted gate modifications to align with FAA Cert Alert 16-03 and the Airport Security Plan (ASP).

Tree Obstruction Remediation

This project involves the remediation of vegetation obstructions within the airspace surrounding CLT. Work will include tree clearing and topping in areas adjacent to the airfield and within the One Engine Inoperative (OEI) surface and Runway Protection Zone (RPZ). Vegetation will be reduced to maintain required clearances at least 20 feet below the FAA Part 77 surface. The total remediation area covers approximately 175 acres and will be completed in prioritized phases based on criticality to airport operations and safety.

T Point Canopy

This project will construct a 13,684 square feet (SF) canopy for manual baggage sortation between the existing T-point building and the ABR breakroom building. Also included in this scope of work will be concrete demolition and pavement, a modular guard-type hut, a riser room for fire suppression, trench drain removal, and replacement and new pavement striping for additional parking spaces for vehicles and tugs that use this area.

FY2026 and FY2027 Various Storm Water Services Projects

The following is a general description of the Scopes of Service included in this RFQ. The selected firms will use HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, and/or a hydraulic grade line closed system computer model, or an approved alternative (SWMM) method. All methods will be in accordance with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Design Manual. The City’s then current AutoCAD standards will be used for production of all plans and profiles.

 

Work will be issued via written Task Orders, which will specify the requirements of the various projects. Multiple Task Orders may be issued for each project. Multiple Task Orders may be issued at once.  The City of Charlotte reserves the right, upon successful completion of a given Task Order, to issue subsequent Task Orders to the same or a different Company.

 

The below list provides a general list of the tasks required. Task orders may include any of the following:

 

  • Surveying, utility locating, and PACP stormwater asset inspections.
  • Existing and Proposed Conditions Analyses
  • Channel Stabilization and/or Restoration
  • Utility Coordination
  • Easement/Plat Preparation
  • Public Engagement
  • Preliminary and final design
  • Permitting/Encroachments
    (404/401, NCDOT, Railroad Agencies and FEMA Floodplain Development Permitting)
  • Preparation of Construction Documents (Plans, Specifications, and Cost Estimates)
  • Bid and Construction Phase Services
  • Geotechnical and Structural Engineering Services

 

The city anticipates selecting multiple firms to provide these services. These will be drainage area-based storm drainage improvement projects that involve differing land uses within the project areas. Drainage basins may include closed and open systems. The study areas may be on a portion of the watershed or the entire watershed. Task orders may be issued for multiple projects at once. Upon satisfactorily completing a task order, the City may issue additional task orders. Scoping on these projects is anticipated to begin in early 2026.

Gleneagles Storm Drainage Improvement Project

The Gleneagles Project is primarily focused on replacing an existing CMP culvert near 3810 Gleneagles Road.  The existing culvert is 8.7’ high by 7.8’ wide and is being replaced with a 10’ wide and 7’ tall RCBC.  The culvert replacement is occurring to address aging infrastructure and to improve the reliability of infrastructure for the traveling public.  In support of this culvert replacement, we are dredging the downstream pond which is located on the Quail Hollow Country Club near the 15th hole.  The dredging will remove sediment that has built up near the downstream end of the existing culvert and prevent sediment transport downstream which would negatively impact existing ponds and habitats.  In addition, we will be adding inlets and upgrading roadside drainage on Out-Of-Bounds Drive which has significant spread in larger storm events from road drainage.  The work on Out-Of-Bounds Drive will increase the safety of the traveling public using that roadway during rain events.

Bruns Academy Water Quality Enhancement Project

There is an existing wetlands system and stream adjacent to the Bruns Academy that are in need of improvements. The intent of this project is to reset an existing wetlands system to its original design and provide enhancement, where applicable. Wetland restoration efforts will include regrading, sodding and planting of vegetation,  installation of a new pedestrian bridge and retaining wall.  Additionally, stream improvements, such as regrading banks and adding riffles, are proposed. The proposed improvements will enhance the overall performance of the system for conveying and treating stormwater.

Robinson Church Road Widening – Phase 1

Widen Robinson Church Road from WT Harris Blvd. to the Plott Road/Highland Avenue intersection from two lanes to three lanes with intermittent islands. Amenities include: curb & gutter, shared-use path, planting strip, underground stormwater filers, accessible ramps, and mid-block crossings. Includes the construction of a roundabout.

Vision Zero Safe to School: WT Harris at Grier

Fixing non-compliant ramps and pedestrian signals at 2 signalized intersections. Curb ramp and sidewalk replacements at multiple unsignalized intersections. Mill & overlay and pavement marking work will be required. Traffic signal wiring/conduit work will be required.

Mallard Connector Main

This project provides increased hydraulic capacity to the Mallard Tank, which will enable it to trend better with the Huntersville Tank. This will eliminate the need to throttle inlet valve at Huntersville Tank, which will result in energy savings by reducing discharge HGLs at pump stations. It will also provide higher capacity for water to be leaked through the Mallard PRV from the 978 into the 882 in emergency scenarios.
