The purpose and need for this construction project is to improve the storm drainage infrastructure (i.e. pipe systems and culverts) to reduce flooding and to enhance degraded stream reaches to reduce erosion and improve water quality. The project area is located in the overall Sunnyvale Storm Drainage Improvement Project (SDIP) area. The scope of work for the Tyndale Avenue project includes replacing a corrugated metal pipe between Tyndale Avenue and Chandworth Road. Replacement of the system is needed to address reported house flooding in the immediate area. The upgrade to the system also allows for the construction of the upstream improvements currently in design from the Storm Water’s queue that will address seven requests for service of failing infrastructure and flooding requests. Approximately 500 linear feet of 48-inch to 66-inch corrugated pipe will need to be replaced to address the undersized and deteriorating system in the Severn Avenue project area.

The Project includes the renovation of the existing Concourses D & E Connector (DECO) and a building addition, totaling approximately 160,000 SF which includes:

• Providing a service area at the Ramp Level to accommodate operational needs per the project program including freight, service and passenger elevators, concessions and club loading docks, and airport storage while maintaining current traffic patterns.
• Repositioning and increasing the area of the major passenger circulation route of the D/E connector from the Atrium to the end of the moving walkways at the approach of Concourse D.
• Relocating the existing airline club space from the Departures Level to a new Mezzanine Level location providing approximately 40,000sf for the new club.
• Providing a new passenger destination and experience at the Departures Level approximately 51,000sf of new concessions and office space.
• Providing a new Roof Level mechanical penthouse of approximately 9,000sf.
• Relocating and upgrading utilities and jet fuel system impacted by the project.
• Coordinating with the Terminal Life Safety project for egress, fire sprinklers, and voice evacuation
• Accommodating the Terminal Operations, requiring coordination of Construction Activities as a 2^nd priority to Passenger, Airline, Concession and Facility Operations.
  • Providing new signage and wayfinding, aligning with current CLT standards.
  • Providing a right of way for a future sterile corridor passing through the DECO project extents. Access to each end of the corridor will be provided under a separate project.

It is anticipated that the project will follow the City of Charlotte sustainability requirements and will be pursuing a Green Globes Certification.  It is anticipated that a Construction Manager will participate in Green Globe Project Survey and provide services required to achieve the Construction Activity Participation.

Project Schedule

Design and Preconstruction Services: May, 2024 through May, 2025

Permitting Phase: May 2025 through August, 2025

CMAR Bidding and GMP Reconciliation Phase: August, 2025 through December, 2025

Construction Phase:   January, 2026 through January, 2028

Project Delivery Method Selected and Justification

The project will deliver new cabinets through a Design-Bid-Build project delivery method. This method will provide the airport with the most cost-effective solution for installing 155 new AEDs cabinets. It will also standardize signage, locations, and AED types across the entire airport campus.

As part of the Fourth Parallel Runway Program at CLT, this construction package will include the new West Parallel Taxiway and its connector taxiways.  The project includes erosion and sedimentation control, grading, drainage, airfield concrete and asphalt paving, fencing marking, and airfield lighting/signage.

To support CLT’s Fourth Parallel Runway Program, this project will also include the installation of Navigational Aids (NAVAIDs) for the new Fourth Parallel Runway. To support the new Runway 1C-19C, the project requires construction of glide slope, localizer, approach lighting systems, and all associated support structures, access roads, and infrastructure.  The general scope of this bid package includes demolition, erosion and sedimentation control, grading, drainage, airfield electrical, vehicle service roads, and utilities.

This vehicle upfit will serve as a mobile town hall for community events and will be available for use by all city departments.  CATS will have first priority given the role CATS has served in bringing this mobile town hall to life.

PSR # 1729

This project will replace the bridge on Morris Field Drive between Wilkinson Boulevard and Golf Acres Drive, over the Norfolk Southern Railroad.

The DeArmon Road Improvements Project is part of the City of Charlotte’s Prosperity Village Comprehensive Neighborhood Improvement Program.  The project will complete the infrastructure needs in the neighborhood by providing buffered bicycle lanes, median/turning lane, storm drainage, curb & gutter, sidewalk and a greenway passage beneath DeArmon Road for the future extension of Clark’s Creek Greenway.

Improvements on Monroe Road between North Wendover Road and Eaton Road to create a more pedestrian-oriented corridor and install a pedestrian hybrid beacon in front of Time Out Youth Center.  Improvements will primarily include shared-use paths, drainage, and midblock pedestrian crossings.

Limits are from Woodland Dr. to just south of Havenwood Rd. / Kilborne Dr. intersection (.87 miles). The project includes a new urban greenspace named Potter Place (including public art), separated bike lanes, protected intersection improvements at Central Ave., wayfinding, storm drainage, street trees, and pedestrian medians.

This project will widen the two-lane road to a four-lane median-divided road with multi-use paths between Steele Creek Road and Whitehall Park Drive, and a multi-use path north along Sandy Porter Road to the subdivision at Williams Glenn Road.
