RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 2011-193 accepting bids and awarding a master price agreement for
the procurement of traffic signal video detection equipment for CIP Project No. 6320.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
As part of the City's continued investment in traffic signals, staff will be upgrading traffic signal video
detection equipment. The video detection equipment is used to notify the traffic signal controller that a
vehicle is waiting to be served. This project will improve traffic signal operations by ensuring that
vehicles are properly detected. For example, the equipment upgrade will help address a common
complaint made by drivers that false calls (i.e., "phantom vehicles") are being served in inclement
weather (e.g., fog, glare, rain).
Video detection equipment is currently in use throughout the City of Carlsbad. Most of the video
detection equipment in use along El Camino Real and Palomar Airport Road has reached its expected
service life. The first phase of this project will replace all existing video detection equipment along El
Camino Real and Palomar Airport Road, and existing equipment will be salvaged where possible for use
as spare parts. This project will systematically upgrade all video detection equipment being used in the
City of Carlsbad.
The engineer's estimate for this bid was $425,000. Four (4) bids were received on May 6, 2011, and all
of the bids were responsive. City staff and the traffic signal maintenance contractor will install this
equipment that may involve a separate contract. The bids are summarized as follows:
CONTRACTOR
1. McCain, Incorporated
2. Econolite
3. Iteris, Incorporated
4. Southwest Traffic Systems, Inc
BID TOTAL
$314,793
$404,330
$414,446
$570,611
The lowest bidder, McCain submitted a bid in the amount of $314,793. The bids were ranked using a
"best value" approach in which price was the highest scoring criteria in addition to responsiveness to
specifications. Staff determined that the McCain bid ranked highest. The third-party consultant that
prepared the equipment specifications reviewed the bid documents and determined that the McCain
bid is a responsive bid. Staff recommends that McCain be awarded the contract.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The project is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per CEQA Guidelines
Section 15301(c) - minor alteration of existing facilities including streets, sidewalks, gutters, and
similar facilities involving negligible or no expansion.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Traffic Signal Program will upgrade equipment and link 170 traffic signals in the City of Carlsbad
to the TMC. The first phase of this project will upgrade and link the 47 traffic signals along El Camino
Real, Palomar Airport Road and Carlsbad Village Drive to the TMC. The second phase of the project
will upgrade and link 58 intersections along Rancho Santa Fe Road, College Boulevard, Cannon
Road, Aviara Parkway, Melrose Drive, and Faraday Avenue. At the completion of the first two project
phases, staff will prepare a report identifying how to best use the remaining funds towards equipment
upgrades at the remaining 65 signals throughout the city and link as many of these signals to the TMC
as possible.
This agenda bill addresses the procurement of traffic signal video detection equipment. The enclosed
bid items establish unit costs to procure video detection equipment for 30 signals (this quantity was
used for bidding purposes only). The total number of signals for phase 1 and 2 will be 105. The
resolution allows the City Manager to use the master price agreement on a unit cost basis to authorize
procurement of traffic signal video detection equipment for phases 1 and 2 up to a total acquisition
cost of $700,000. Following is the cost estimate for video detection equipment from McCain for the
first two project phases including installation and other related expenses based on unit prices from the
McCain bid:
